Southampton v Forest - Match Thread

A disappointing draw in the end. The Danilo injury looked to upset the players and game plan. Our fitness also a concern. Bournemouth subs proving far more effective than ours.

Luckily we’ve signed Moreno, so have some cover at LB / Aina can move to the right.




Bournemouth:



The Good: the 1st half was impressive.

The Bad: MGW had a poor game.

The Ugly: thankfully the Danilo injury, whilst horrific on the field, isn’t as bad as feared. 6-8 weeks recovery, so he should be match fit by December.

Special Mention(s): Yates had his best game.




The Last Time we played Southampton (H) 4-3!! Awoniyi on the double, a MGW penalty and Danilo.

Navas



Aurier Felipe Niakhate Lodi


Yates Mangala


Johnson MGW Danilo


Awoniyi




Proposed Line-up:



Sels


Williams Milenkovic Murillo Aina


Anderson Sangare


Elanga MGW CHO


Wood



Subs: 

Miguel, Boly, Omobamidele, Moreira, Moreno, Dominguez, Yates, Sosa, Awoniyi

.

Injuries: Danilo. Possibly Aina and Elanga.




League Form:



Southampton lost their first game 1-0. Schar got a straight red thanks to the antics of Big Ben.


Prediction:



I expect us to Nick this 1-0. Switching to a back three wouldn’t surprise me. Another 4-3 wouldn’t surprise me…hopefully we win either way.




Final Words: 



Time to get back to winning ways. 

COYR!!!
