So with the injuries to Lallana and Chambo does anyone still think we dont need to go and get a midfield player in on loan before Thursday's deadline ?

Was on Solent Twitter.

Chambo leaves ground on crutches, Lallana has groin problem. Both to be assessed tomorrow....... Thats the last we will hear of it then considering we still haven't been told about Morgan being out for the season !! First we will know is if they dont run out against MK Dons in 10 days time.

This has been disgraceful tonight......as it is everytime we play.

Bit of a difference between his head and his groin.....geographically as well as anything else !!!

Has that been confirmed anywhere ? Solent ?

Saints Twitter saya he got a bang on side of head from a hefty clearence from their keeper which affected him. Lets hope that is all it is. Please please...

Talking about Saints on Sky Sports News Ian Dowie just referred to us as "we" Once a Saint....

No that just means the next baby born in that house....or yours....will be a boy :-)

Not just us full of wrist slashers and doom merchants when the team lose a game then :-)

Oh yes, I cant see that could be taken any other way to be honest.

Agreed, but it will be for some !!!

For someone like yourself who is quite often in the minority of one this is a bit rich isn't it ?

Oh brother ! No, No, No

Ridiculous statement.

I agree 100%. I just hope those at the club who make these decisions agree too. NC hasn't let us down so far and I dont expect him to let us down over this.

I think we are, very lacking in decent cover for central midfield, especially if one of the current two gets injured or suspended. I will be very disappointed if we dont bring someone into the building before Thursday's deadline.

I agree. It was dodgy to say the least when it was called off as it was surrounded by Ifs, Buts and maybes but now there is no problem it should be played...and for the reason you state !

Central midfield much more important. We have Guly, Lallana, Chamberlain, Forte, N'Gassen and if ever fit Connolly can all fill one of the two places up front.

Well unless NA goes out and gets a decent central midfielder in on loan before Thursday instead of just a covering player who can sit on the bench then Chaplow out of form or not is the best we are going to get along with Hammond who can also slip in and out of form fairly regularly. I wouldn't be surprised if Chaplow isnt carrying a slight injury, he doesn't seem as quick as he was a few weeks ago.

That explains a lot......one of the worst displays I have seen this season, and we have had some prize pillocks as competition for him. Funniest thing was when he booked their no. 7 right at the end for a nothing foul after everything their back four had gotten away with against Barnard and Lambert.

No wonder we have the reputation with Bournemouth and others of being arrogant.

No we shouldn't but even though Adkins has been saying since late October/early November that we have to look after him and not overplay him he hasnt exactly been pulled out of many league games has he ? And, unless he gets injured - God forbid - the last 12 games of the season would not be a good time to start IMHO.

The only place we haven't got depth is central midfield. We have three good ones and little else. One is injured, possibly for the majority or rest of the saeson so we have two. Gobern even before the red card is ok to come on for 15-20 minutes but I wouldn't prefer to see him than Chaplow or Hammond. We desperately need someone who can come in and do a job in that position because with just Chaplow and Hammond available for selection we are playing Russian roulette and if we are to make the automatic promotion place we cannot afford to do that.

Indeed.
