Match Thread Southampton v Everton. 15th Aug at 12.45.

Can't say I'll be heading down there with much enthusiasm on Saturday.

An early goal to shut the beauts up. Chico spot on with his assesment of their fans. No happy memories leaving that ground, we even managed to spunk a 3-1 lead about 10 years ago.

Come on Everton, big performance required.

Clasie played for their u21s this week.

Remember last season when they played about 5 youth players and made us look like utter divs?

We're losing mate. About 3 or more zip.

I'm sure I saw someone RT the official saints Twitter with Koeman saying he's out for 2-3 weeks

Stop being so negative mate, it's like you have an anti Martinez agenda or something. Pffft

I think we can win this, they've lost Scniederlin and Clyne, Frazer Forster and Classie are injured along with Caulker. My biggest worry is Long, he's an absolute pest against us, all the way back to when Reading knocked us out of the Cup

Agree on Long, he's one of those, in your face, doesn't give a toss, never gives up strikers

He is a bit of an idiot to be fair.

Good news that Mirallas, Deloufeu and Besic are in contention to return with Mcgeady not far off, gives us some greater depth in the squad. He'll deffo go with the same side as last week and bring Deloufeu off the bench imo, leaving us fans to ponder would he have played 2 wingers from the start had del been fully fit, thus leaving us wait for the city game for confirmation of his plan this season.

Word.

Ronald Koeman's face looks like he's just done a headstand in nettles.

Like Simon Western has threw water over a chip pan fire.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Too many have Koemon his face

I really wouldn't mind him if he ended up here tbh. Just saying.

I can't see three points here at all - I think they're a very good side and will be pushing the top four this season. A draw would be a good result.

Agree. I'd bet good money he'll play the same team as last time.

Possible Oviedo instead of Galloway but even that I'm not convinced.

I think we should play with two holding midfielders for a change.
