Appy Posted 22 February, 2023 Share Posted 22 February, 2023 9 hours ago, JRM said: Yeah I was told up at Newcastle we'd taken the smaller allocation (tickets went on sale next day) , maybe it changed later on. Unusually the website doesn't confirm the allocation "Due to there being a limited number of tickets available, we anticipate a high demand on tickets." https://www.southamptonfc.com/matches/2022-23/leeds-vs-saints-2023-02-25/ticket-info Was a funny one, at the time they said “allocation to be confirmed at later date” and then just never confirmed.

Baird of the land Posted 22 February, 2023 Share Posted 22 February, 2023 Curious to see if we can stop any new manager bounce by them. At the time he was sacked by Watford I felt Gracia was harshly done by but he didn't perform when he went back to Spain afterwards. I can cope fine with moi I just don't want bednarek. He wasn't as horrendous as normal last week but I don't buy this he was great argument. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southner Posted 22 February, 2023 Share Posted 22 February, 2023 11 hours ago, Mr X said: Brave, whoever loses this will more than likely get relegated.... That said the Chelsea performance has to give us confidence surely? It's a big if but if we can repeat that level of intensity in our performance there's no reason why we can't take the points, tall Paul looked ok at times without ever really threatening on goal other times he looked slow and gangley to be expected, sulamana looks like he could be the real deal in time though and lavia is a class above the rest of the team.... I don't wanna see Elyonoussi or diallo on the pitch though Think we'll all feel a bit flat if we don't get at least a point out of this. A lot of pressure on Ruben, but the Chelsea win has given us a bit of hope, and the universal love and respect for Selles has us looking forward to games again. That said, we could get pumped 5-0, and have Rooney at the helm by Monday morning, lols. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Leeds, one of the weakest teams in the division. No more baby steps, we need to string wins together and not only does a win propel us right back into it, but it condemns an immediate rival to defeat AND will make our other relegation rivals, most who I’m sure had us as “Saints are down, two spots left” a few weeks ago, sit up and take notice. Can we do it? Yes, but our attack needs to start scoring goals from open play. Will we do it? Well it is Elland Road and we don’t have a great record there. Please put round pegs in round holes Ruben. Personally I think we’ll get a draw here, which won’t be enough come May. I hope I’m wrong. Just about sums it up perfectly for me. Absolutely no point swooning about winning at Stamford Bridge and then getting fuck all at Leeds. If our season is going to take an upwards turn then it has to be this game. Unfortunately I think we're done, our front players are woeful finishers, we can't keep relying on the likes of JWP to pull something out of the bag. Win this and things could get interesting, a draw or loss pretty much sees us down. Games are running out, it's now or never.

Saint Garrett Posted 22 February, 2023 Share Posted 22 February, 2023 Same starting XI for me. only argument would be KWP in for AMN, and possibly Salisu in for Bednarek, Bednarek did well last week though… Assuming we stick with 4222, and I see no reason why not, then Armstrong and Elyounoussi the best options in the 10s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 23 February, 2023 Share Posted 23 February, 2023 Think we’ll see Bednarek and possibly even AMN starting to provide a bias of experience in the team, rather than a young side on average.

saintant Posted 23 February, 2023 Share Posted 23 February, 2023 Do we know if Gracia has a work permit yet? If not he should not be working with their squad yet and, unless he gets it by Saturday, should not be on the bench. As I understand it he does not have enough months at a major club, he's 2 months short and Leeds have had to pay £5000 for application before a board who will make the decision. Hope there are no sneaky shenanigans going on behind the scenes but, knowing Leeds, it wouldn't surprise me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Boy Saint Posted 23 February, 2023 Share Posted 23 February, 2023 I'm hoping that the Chelsea game performance up against the Wolves game performance might be the shaft of light we are hoping for. Versus Chelsea we kept at it second half when we knew the storm would be coming - the first half v Wolves we looked to be on much more than the season thus far, then second half with assistance of NJ's pack shuffle we downed tools. City in the cup we looked the part, and made them look ordinary. Just gives you belief that with the right direction, there is a team in there capable of getting us out of the mire we are in.
