Saint Charlie

Adkins on OS saying AL should be available.

He has been fantastic this season...

It's for NA to announce that we have a "professional group of players" and will "take one game at a time".

Couldn't see Lallana in any of the Saints Player pre match videos. Saw pretty much every other player...

Cool, anyone know if it works on the Samsung Galaxy S2?

Simple question - Does Saints Player work on Android smartphones?

Interesting, Im sure you are right as always.

A win would put us 5 points above WHU and Brighton, big game!

A win tomorrow would be massive now.

Haha Glenn Murray!

Yes Palace, Brighton also have a tough game next, Ipswich away I think.

Goal Palace, been listening, poor game, Brighton with about 15 men behind the ball.

Mackay said Hudson "has a chance" for tomorrow.

Exactly. Liebherr bought the club and put Cortese in charge - he makes the rules. What he has done to turn the club around in 3 years is fantastic so I'm not sure why people moan? He might rub people up the wrong way but football is a murky world and I am glad he is someone not to mess with.

If Conway misses our game that would be a big plus, he is a very decent player.

No suprise really seeing as he plays for England Youth and is one of the top prospects in our great setup.

I think a lineup like this would suit us well for this game: -----------------------Davis--------------------------- Frazer----------Jos-----------Fonte--------------Fox ------------Morgan-----Cork----Hammond------------ -----De Ridder ---------Lambert-----------Lallana---

Good to be through, would be interested in what people thought of Forte? Just doesn't appear up to it at our level - fair summary? We do need another striker at some point either on loan or in Jan as its pretty much impossible to give Lambert a full rest.

Exactly. For the whole summer.

Forte isn't a replacement for Connolly, he isn't anywhere near his class. Ok Lambert might not get a red card but perfectly plausible he and Connolly might both get injured, Barnard is currently out as well. Just feel with our great start it would be a shame for us to not be prepared for injuries up front. Im sure Nigel has it covered though.

So Connolly breaks down in training tomorrow, out for 2 months. Lambert gets sent off at Burnley. Do you think we would win any of the next 3 games? Currently Lambert and Connolly are pretty much playing 90mins every game. Would be nice to have an option of subbing them sometimes to give them a rest, especially when we go Sat to Tues. Im sure we would enter the loan market if we have to but a bit of a shame we didn't get a striker in the summer.

Brilliant start. Today Connolly and Lallana back to their best. Richardson also had a very strong game and Davis crucial saves. A couple of points on the season so far: Hammond has upped his game massively - fair play to the guy, a worthy captain. We seem to be well disciplined. Chaplow at Barnsely apart I can't recall any bad tackles really from us this season, the team stay calm even when provoked. Just think we are a striker light. Would be nice to give Connolly and Lambert a complete rest on Weds but we probably will play one of them. Would also be nice if we could take of Lambert on 75 or 80 mins in these type games where we are comfortbale. Steve de Ridder looks classy each time he comes on, just a bit over eager at times. Hopefully he will get a start on Weds, I think he will have a big impact at some point soon. Not sure on Hooiveld, didn't look dominant in the air or on the ground. For someone of that size he seems to lack a bit of aggression. Nice enough on the ball though, thats probably all that keeps him ahead of Martin (plus being left footed).

Butterfield was on the Saints Player video training with the squad as was Richardson.

Who is Elds? Luke Shaw is meant to be class also.

The Echo quote the OS word for word before and after games anyway so he gets the same as all of us do!
