Mr X Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Just now, beatlesaint said: Might as well play Sulemana given his best game by far was against them and its a good shop window for him which i'm sure will be at the forefront of his mind. Sulemana definitely won't be here next season assuming we are still in the championship which looks increasingly likely. He seems to think he's better than us too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to think he's better than us too Which is mad because he’s contributed the square root of very little to this campaign in terms of attacking efficiency. Reminds me a little of Mane before he came good, but given the league he’s in, there are few signs that Sulemana will get anywhere near Mane’s level of success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tisspahars Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Those feeling this is a completely unwanted distraction that we have no chance in may be interested to know that, in light of the likely Liverpool team, you can currently lay us to qualify at around 11/4 on Betfair.......👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So here's what we do. We do a Millwall. Jack knobbles any of their strikers in the first five minutes to let them know we're there. Then we put everyone behind the ball except Sulemana and Edozie/Sam AA. Then, when they attack and lose the ball, Baz (not Lumley) hoofs it to our super fast forwards to score on the break. Can only get 40/1 on Betfair for 2-3 to us. They know it makes sense. 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainchris Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Just watched the Presser… Wow quite a difference in RM’s confidence levels…. Not nearly as confident or dare I say cocky… Has to be a good thing… Very open about his love in with AA which was a bit strange… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldandtired Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 (edited) Let's get it out of the way, lose, and then move onto the real business of the season. It can't be a coincidence that form has dropped so badly since this game was on the horizon, they have to have had half an eye on it. Lose, move on, start winning again.

Somebody should remind the media of the illegal approach to VVD which was his foundation. Didn't you know he discovered hidden gems such as Sadio Mane & Virigl Van Dijk? Plucked them from obscurity and turned them into superstars. Sarcasm mode off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beatlesaint Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Ok this is what will happen tonight….. Liverpool (probably Klopp’s Kindergarten) are live on ITV tonight in the FA Cup. ITV will be so busy paying homage to Klippity and co that we won’t get a mention until the game starts….and even then that’s open for debate. Should by some miracle Saints score the level of incredulity will rise beyond reasonable levels, “how dare….umm, who are these, oh yeah, Southampton, score” We probably won’t….but just in case If we happen to steal a win……the brown stuff will hit the fan, how dare they break Jurgen’s dream of winning everything blah blah blah. The fact we need this game like a hole in the head will be lost on ITV, we will probably play a weakened side, we have much bigger fish to fry…..and one last thing, if we lose 5 or 6-0 we will be called “plucky” and Klopp will hug all our players Up the Saints! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcolm waldron Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 For those of us really looking forward to seeing what Brooksy can do on the big Anfield stage tonight, I have an update. I've just bumped into him at Fleetsbridge Tesco Extra - where a close examination of his basket showed a large bag of Dorritos, salsa dip and a rom-com DVD (£1 - he likes a bargain). This looks like he's setting down for the night in front of the TV. Gutted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Predictions: Saints regularly getting in trouble trying to play out but can’t handle their press. VVD to score. Baz to get us in trouble.

Bloody Lavia would of loved the role as he was awesome at last season and in the few games we saw this season.
