1-1 Brentford scored ffs

Broja did pretty well on the byline, got past Jannson. Some good stuff so far

Quick, place a bet on this result finishing 3-2 Bednarek has scored, at home we’ve always lost 3-2, but away we beat WHU 3-2...

GOAAAALL SAINTS 1-0

My stream showing the line up as a 352 with Tella in CM! Last game he was centreback, now in CM... He’s pushing up every week

Surely that is a 3 at the back! A 3421/343 I'd guess.

Nope nothing to be confused about now. Sky Sports never had a contractual agreement to broadcast this game as it wasn't one of their initial picks for that weekend. It was an error on their behalf, and they've now changed the 9pm showing to "Sky Sports News". For those wondering what they'll be showing at 10:30pm then - it'll be the full 90 minutes as part of their "Game of the Day" (they do this every Saturday) As our game is the only one tonight they can show the full thing after the game has concluded.

I'd assume that they're showing Sky Sports News...surely a mistake, I don't think they can show highlights until the game has concluded either, and whilst they have 3 minute highlights on YouTube, I think the BBC owns the official highlights package via MOTD This game isn't being broadcasted by Sky Sports/BT or Amazon in the UK, it has to be a stream job tonight

Let's say we didn't offer him "a first team GK wage", do you think there is absolutely anyone in the PL who would? He'd be 2nd choice almost anywhere else in the PL in my opinion. This is our best opportunity to upgrade the position, we have 3 GKs all out of contract this summer. I'd put one of them on a reduced wage, and then try to buy a GK who starts for another team rather than one warming the bench, there must be someone available for £10m-£15m

But he feeds kids! 😉

Reckon he is a slightly better Clasie... difference being Utd paid c. £40m on him but that's loose change for United

Sofiane Boufal scores for Morocco to beat Ghana 1-0 in AFCON.

I still think it is a huge risk to be paying a combined c. £60m for practically two 29 year olds in Digne and Coutinho - no resale value and reliant on an an untested manager in Gerrard. If it goes well for them, then it might get them a season or two in Europa League... I don't think they can sustain that sort of spending every year either

I was just about to mention this. Juve 3-1 down in the 70th minute and score 3 goals in space of 7 minutes. I think the penalty is harsh tbh but it is sadly the rules.

I wonder how Everton fans feel about this! Bigger club mantra etc etc, this might put them in their place a little bit if move goes through.

I mean the tie is good for us but overall pretty shit in the grand scheme of things. Other than Spurs vs Brighton / [Arsenal] vs Leicester, a fair number of PL clubs will fancy themselves to go through I was hoping for Man City/Liverpool/Chelsea/Utd/Everton etc to have to face each other

COVENTRY AT HOME

He could do a job against Elche, Cadiz, Osasauna, Alaves in a stacked team like Atletico

Not if its Palace/Spurs/Chelsea/Arsenal/WHU or even Brentford. I'll take a QPR though, last time I went was when Mane scored in the 95th minute but I had such a crap restricted view seat I was better off staying at home! However, I think I just absolutely hate London now... With the average pint at £6 or more it doesn't entice me.

In other news... Morgan Schneiderlin started for Nice today who are in 2nd place in Ligue 1. They went 1-0 up and then he got himself sent off in the 20th minute. Live on BT Sport ESPN.

It’s going to be Everton or Leicester I reckon.

Also said that we were “overtaken” this week.

If Tino is definitely out, I wouldn’t mind some of that versatility Ralph goes on about and play with a 3 at the back (to match Brentford) Otherwise, I’d probably put Jack Stephens at right back and get JWP back in his best position. If I was the Brentford manager though, I’d just stick Mbeumo on Perraud who had a stinker today and played 120m, they’ll find chances that side. I think put Redmond on the left side to help Perraud out and track back.

SWANS 2-3 SAINTS FULL TIME!

Shane Long has actually been my MOTM if we hold on.
