Eastleigh v Saints

[Paulwantsapint81]

Is it this afternoon/ evening 

Who is going to play?

Do we have a no9? As guess Larin is still on holiday

[CSA96]

Alfie House said after speaking to Tonda that he expects to see two different XIs getting 45 mins each

Mads Roerslev will play 30 mins before being replaced as they slowly reintroduce him to game action, although his preseason started a couple of weeks before the rest of the group

"False nine" it is then 😉

[JohnnyShearer2.0]

Is it possible to do a drop-off at the ground?

I think you can but I cannot recall it.

Yeah, a false widow would be more dangerous and offer more bite than any of those three options.

Unlike Damian Downs, a spider would actually move as well sometimes.

3/4 of that front 4 look very good.

Good, can we loan him to Eastleigh for the rest of the season ? 

[RedArmy]

Surprised Leo hasn’t taken the number 7 shirt. 

[Jazzfunk]

Is this being shown anywhere do we know?

You can watch it on the Southampton website... if you pay £5

there you go

[NewYorkSaint]

The new shirts better than I thought. I like the solid red panel on the back... much stronger identity than last year.

Not overly impressed with Fellows last season but maybe he'll have a better season this year, I'd still have Matsuki as number 1. Oyekunle's sub appearances last season didn't fill me with optimism either. I still think there's a lot of work to be done before we're Championship contenders. Still plenty of time though. 

[CSA96]

Kit looks smart. Can't help but think it would feel more Saints with white socks. Giving me real Sheffield United vibes with the black

[benjii]

Jander going off injured. Brilliant. 

[Saint Neil]

Perfect plan so no one will buy him.

[CSA96]

Jander being withdrawn after 11 minutes after a tackle from an Eastleigh player. Joe O'Brien-Whitmarsh taking his place

[CSA96]

Eastleigh 1-0 Saints

Corner into the box not cleared, various people swinging a leg at it and then the shot slips past Long

Didn't spy on Eastleigh. 

[sockeye]

And there it is.

Eastleigh 1-1 Saints

[die Mannyschaft]

At last a decent move, Leo srcamble in front goal

[CSA96]

Tom Fellows cross floated to the back post, Leo Scienza scores with a header. Keeper tried to push it back out but Lewis Dobbin slammed it in

Thank for the link 🙏

#COYS !

[die Mannyschaft]

Still got that habit of not shooting first time edge box

[CSA96]

Eastleigh 1-2 Saints

Fellows assist again. Goes down the right, gets a nice cross in and Oyekunle with a diving header

[HarvSFC]

Two headed goals from Fellows crosses. Eckert masterclass. Already better than last year's pre-season.

[ChristopheVAFC]

Great second goal 👏

[sockeye]

Nice cross and nice header.

Line up

[CSA96]

Blackmore going on about Roerslev heading off after 30 min 'isn't good news' even though Tonda said before the game that he would take him off after 30 to ease him back in

[HarvSFC]

I don't think Roerslev's gone off with an injury? Blackmore thinks differently, but we have a first half team and a second half team, so 30 minutes wouldn't be unusual.

[Saint Neil]

Did I miss the hydration break?

[CSA96]

Here's the Saints goals

Blackmore sounds like he really doesn't want to be there 😂

That was so obvious to anyone without even being told beforehand. He was losing his head over it 😂

[Turkish]

I remember the days when we used to smash non league teams 8,9,10-0 how standards have dropped. 

[RedArmy]

Need more of this from Fellows this season.

Got to take into account the heat, travel, threat of a storm,  60 games a season.

Surely how standards have risen?!

Tier 5 teams are a lot better now than 30 years ago 😉😁😁

It was during the two 5 min injury stops
