Newcastle have looked more dangerous with 1 attack than we have with about 80% possession.

Did Tuchel have numerous meetings with Reed?

It never left

How many did Newcastle have away on international duty? Merino / Shelvey / Lascelles / Joselu weren't. I think they will be fresher than us.

Indeed. The powers that be thought he was though. Incredible they thought that it wasn't the playing personnel. Optimism at its very best.

The thing that stood out for me whilst watching was how much I hate that awful maroon training top.

Hip injury, apparently.

Newcastle are a good side from what I've seen. Can't see us winning as we just can't score goals at home (or anywhere else)

If Gardos is in it's an easy decision He is: http://www.southampton.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=503207

& because of his dad. "Bradley Wright-Wright-Wright!"

It's very possible that those people are wrong and that we still need a player like Pelle / Lambert. What is a shame is that we don't have a player of that type in the squad as an option.

He's an interesting case because where does he go if he leaves? Can't be to an elite team. We'd be a good fit but I can't see us paying big wages & fee for a 28 year old.

Not so far!

Soccer Saturday did a piece on Watford last Saturday and it was evident how they do the same this season. 4 or 5 players in the box when the wide player crosses the into the box.

I agree. Heard some good buzz about Hansen. Hope he gets some minutes tonight.

@SouthamptonFC: Here's how #SaintsFC's youngsters line-up for tonight's #CheckatradeTrophy tie away to #CamUTD at Abbey Stadium:

Great post & thanks for sharing. You should stick around, Minty.

For him to truly be the next Gaston, a strong performance vs Newcastle @ St Mary's is vital.

Well said that man. The Sunderland (cup) & 'Boro (prem) games last season at home were woeful, but #TheBouf came up with a couple of stunners to win both games. He's not going to do that sat on the bench this season.

Is that true?!

Called up to Dutch squad
