Surprised by Julio’s absence, though.Rutter's still cup-tied. Why do you think everyone's picking Georginho in his place?

Julio is with me, down by the school yardSurprised by Julio’s absence, though.
Brilliant! We will win then.Last time we played Southampton at the Amex Just LAST YEAR !! They were rock bottom of the table , we needed to win to get into Europe no less AND ...WE DID. No sign of glue, tar or feathers or indeed, nails.
why ? Get the points first , play your strongest team , you can always bring on subs when the game is won ,Maybe an opportunity to rest mitoma for adringa with all the fixtures coming up?
We did in the end but I still have Stains’ “2-0 and you f***ed it up” ringing in my earsLast time we played Southampton at the Amex Just LAST YEAR !! They were rock bottom of the table , we needed to win to get into Europe no less AND ...WE DID. No sign of glue, tar or feathers or indeed, nails.
Of course and they nearly equalised i think (hit the post ? ) but idea that we NEVER beat the bottom teams or NEVER win when we're favourites at home . In fact it happens a fair bit but we like to pretend it doesn't in case its BAD LUCK.We did in the end but I still have Stains’ “2-0 and you f***ed it up” ringing in my ears
They had a goal disallowed that would have made it 2-2, didn't they? A very marginal offside call by VAR, as I remember.Of course and they nearly equalised i think (hit the post ? ) but idea that we NEVER beat the bottom teams or NEVER win when we're favourites at home .

You’re right to push back! I’m not among the pessimists in any case, I predict a win every time the score predictor thread comes aroundOf course and they nearly equalised i think (hit the post ? ) but idea that we NEVER beat the bottom teams or NEVER win when we're favourites at home .

yes. That's it . For about 10 minutes Theo Walcott was on fire !They had a goal disallowed that would have made it 2-2, didn't they? A very marginal offside call by VAR, as I remember.
I obviously absolutely love Dunky, but I really hope he doesn't start tomorrow...think dunk being put straight back in and having an absolute stinker is written in the stars unfortunately
Are you bringing your personal fantasies into this?Up against a team shitter than the three we drew against, this is a banker away win.
Nailed on, glued, tarred and feathered.
As well as JPvH and Igor have played, we haven't kept a single clean sheet whilst Dunky's been out. Our last one was in Dunk's most recent game against Newcastle. In fact we haven't kept a league clean sheet without Dunk since 2 January 2024.I obviously absolutely love Dunky, but I really hope he doesn't start tomorrow...
Yeah, but for a bit or context since then we've played Liverpool twice, man city, and Bournemouth who had also been getting a lot of praise. And a brain fart again wolves last 3 minutes. The games before Newcastle we also conceded 2 v spurs, 4 v Chelsea, and 2 v forest.As well as JPvH and Igor have played, we haven't kept a single clean sheet whilst Dunky's been out.

This be the team.Can't see Enciso starting, was playing for the U21s this week. I'm going to guess we'll go

Dunk on the bench, Minteh, O'Riley and Adingra all capable impact subs. Weiffer in as the more defensive CM.
I would play O'Riley and Georginio. Agree with the rest.Bert
