Oldham build-up thread


Saint Fan CaM

Recommended Posts

Not that I wish to gloat (I do) but Ive made a small fortune the last two weeks. £50 on Lambert to score first and Saints to win vs Gills and £2 on Trotman to score first in a 3-1 win at Southend. This week I'm going with Lallana to score the Saints goal in a 1-1 draw. People saying that anything less than a win is a poor result should have a word with themselves. Clean sheet would be nice but we just can't seem to do it.

Going for Oldham 0 -1 Saints

 

our squad is so strong at the moment, players like thomas, holmes and saga might not even make the squad tomorrow

 

but oldham shutout charlton last week so its not going to be easy

 

they wont play for a draw at home though, we'll carve them up 4-1 saints! COYR

If we do lose, can the doom and gloom merchants please keep things in perspective?! We've had 3 wins on the bounce, we're obviously getting better, and one defeat doesn't mean we've gone backwards and we're going to get relegated again.

 

Having said that, I think we might nick it, although it won't be easy to break them down. 1-2 Saints.

Papa----- Hammond------- Mellis---------- Lallana

Subs

 

Bart

Thomas

Mills

I think this is our strongest side (bar James at RB) but maybe Pardew will stick with Wotton in front of the defence and keep Schneiderlin in a more advanced role.

Really good this and with the new players coming in (on the bench) looks like some real competition. I'd love to see Connoly start, maybe Holmes but what do you do with Lallana? and is Papa staying at RM? I think alot of the players we have are different and therefor the formation is prone to change.

Looks a nice team, but still lacking that bit of balance on the left IMO. Harding could be left really exposed in some games.

 

The bench for this level is absolutely amazing though. Only leeds could field such a strong bench IMO.

 

I do think Pard's will go for the unchanged team though, Mellis will probably be too tired to start because of the international games...

It maybe just me but I don't think we do well travelling up the M6 for away games. In fact the last game I can think of winning in the North West was early last season when we came back from 2-0 down at Preston.

 

This season we have drawn away to Stockport and Carlisle on our M6 travels and both matches coming after promising displays.

 

So unless our driver takes the team via the M1 and across the Pennines I predict a comfortable but boring draw.
