We've been using the high press all season and you still don't know what it is.  

 

Into the box with CT you go.

I know what it is- the ultimate aim of it though, is attack, no? 
By restricting opponents play in their half, they’re on the back foot and we are … 

 

… attacking. 
 

xGHP innit blud?

No Isak or Maxi to start. Same 11 as we've been accustomed to. 

[aimaad22 4145]

Really hoping to see Wilson improve and get back to his best then. Based on Howe's pre-match comments Isak is still not fully match fit or he may have started. 

[Kid Dynamite 7009]

Not sure I understand the reluctance to start ASM or Isak game after game. Giving the likes of Wilson and Joelinton a rest can't be a bad thing?

[aimaad22 4145]

This could be similar to the Palace game. My guess is Southampton will try to sit back absorb the pressure and knick a goal to take to SJP. That's how many sides are going to play against us now anyway, we just need to learn to cope with the new found respect other teams have now.

Howe mentioned something about Isak not training at the same intensity as the rest of them yet so it must be on the physios orders to ease him back in

[Chaser 1207]

 

 

That bench is improving but Ill still bet that Murphy will be 3rd sub

I think the stuff you get over the (the broon that is) is about 10.5%. Proper loony juice  

Hence why 2 halves is enough for me 😂

[wykikitoon 19980]

Did someone say Howe said Isak isnt training 100% yet? 

[Dr Gloom 21847]

I wanted Isak to start but in Eddie we trust.

This build up is absolutely cringeworthy. Flames, a light show - the lot 

[Christmas Tree 4711]

CCCCCMMMMMMOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!! 

[Dr Gloom 21847]

Bet they play some cheesy pop if they score. Good job they won’t 

[aimaad22 4145]

Just had my manager ask me if I watched the Cowboys vs the 49ers, 'football' game today. 

 

There is a proper game on right now bitches! And no you may not have that margin report today
