Great read as always & thank f*ck it's about a win for a change.

Burton go through to the semi final

The Times are reporting that Poch would cost Utd £34m in compensation.

Weird. Southampton eye Fulham goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli as they prepare for possible exit of Alex McCarthy: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-6508897/Southampton-eye-Fulhams-Marcus-Bettinelli-prepare-possible-exit-Alex-McCarthy.html

Just looking at Post #1 & didn't realise that Obafemi is only contracted until 2019.

Has left the club already. http://sportwitness.co.uk/southampton-scout-leaves-club-just-two-months-joining-given-new-role-manager-knows/

They really do. Steve Mounie is back from suspension (I think) & they have Laurent Depoitre. Neither has scored this season, so you know what will happen.

Watched their highlights against Newcastle. Surprised to see they had 74% possession. They've struggled to score this season but they will have a couple of big lumps to pick from up front who will no doubt cause us problems.

Thanks chaps. So it's Stephens & Redmond that we don't know the duration of.

Also, our centre-backs seem better suited to having 3 of them at the back!

He did. Not sure we know what happened with Obafemi.

Indeed. Opinion of Ings with no doubt fluctuate between being a great signing for us (when fit & scoring) & a terrible signing (when he's injured). Lets just enjoy the fit & scoring part at the mo.

Pied was fine as a back-up. I was referring to this season really, Bexy.

- Redmond - Lemina - Stephens - Cedric - Obafemi - Bertrand - Gallagher

I think it's actually great that this is even a question. 2 right backs at last!

Obviously only room for so many players in the match day squad, but what are the chances Gabbi will be departing in January?

Looking forward to the next one where the strange phenomenon known as winning will actually be discussed.

Yeah, a massive boost. It filters down through the age groups too as younger players have to step up to higher age groups to cover. Great stuff.

We've accumulated a few injuries. Hopefully we get some of them back for this. - Redmond - Lemina - Stephens - Cedric - Obafemi - Bertrand

Can't let today pass without mentioning this lad. Well played for getting his first Prem appearance. Must have impressed Ralph in training.

A good few days for us to get more of Ralph's coaching and hopefully get some players back fitter. Mooy is injured for them too?
