Keep an eye on Ugochukwu for Southampton, he had a really good pre-season for Chelsea.

feck sake thought Hojliund would at least make the bench. This no striker thing isn't helping us.Eriksen has been good for Denmark both before the summer and in Nations League, so I am not that worried. At least he is better than Casemiro. But for Denmark he plays in Bruno`s postion, where Eriksen is best.Does ETH want the fecking sack?
What kind of a car crash waiting to happen is this? A head on disaster cluster feck that’s what!
If we dont include against City. If we do, he came off the bench to score a great goal. More than Rashford has done this season
No goals no assists. He did create more last game. But Garnacho has had one good game off the bench-1 goal difference in the last 57 league games says it all.
Agreed , 1 CB this season would have been fine and then another next summer . Maybe United hand was forced with Yoro knowing he was leaving this summer.What would be really sensible in a midfield which is already wide open, would be to replace Casemiro with the only squad player whose legs have gone more.

Surely Eriksen is in there for ball progression and to dictate the tempo against a side we should be able to do that against?It baffles me that ETH treats new signings like they’ve never kicked a ball before.Eriksen is the best passer we have in midfield. He isn't great defensively but his presence means we have more of the ball and we can move it forward better. Lots of disrespect for Eriksen here, he isn't that bad.Hope Zirkzee replicates his form for Orange.Brave selection from Erik ten Hag prioritising attack.
Onviously wants the ball played out of midfield quickly to get at the Saint's back three.
See how it goes.
Easy to forget, as I understand he was terrible, but he did start the last match.
He looks like a top top talentGarnacho should be playing instead of Amad, and Maguire instead of De Ligt.My prediction is that we will boss the game for around 25 minutes...then Eriksen will hit a brick wall and Southampton will be all over us until half time. Then, hopefully Ugarte will be brought on for the second half and return us to some stability in the middle.
Hopefully we will have scored a goal or two early on, but if we fudge our chances as we have done recently then I can see us struggling. I just don't want us to be chasing the game and throwing on a jaded Casemiro to try and win.
This will come down to fine margins! - anything can happen in the next 2 hours!That lineup
I said before that he won't play Ugarte. I reckon he'll try to avoid playing him at all because it wasn't his signing, hence all the talk about him not being ready.
Rashford must always play of course. Absolute shambles of a manager. A full summer of signings and a lineup that looks worse than last season.
Or...you know, there are viable explanations for your frustrations?No dmc. This is the way.
Ugarte is 100% Ten Hag‘s signing.That lineup I said before that he won't play Ugarte. I reckon he'll try to avoid playing him at all because it wasn't his signing, hence all the talk about him not being ready.
Rashford must always play of course. Absolute shambles of a manager. A full summer of signings and a lineup that looks worse than last season.
He is jetlagged, came back on Thursday.
Who would you replace Rashford with? Garnacho has been poor.
Absolute shambles of a post.
Did you miss the Liverpool game where he started and was rubbish?Like that Eriksen is playing. Means more composed performance from the midfield.This wont end wellWonder if Mctominay would be starting over Eriksen if he was still here.
Everyone knew he wouldn’t play Ugarte as he said he needs time to adjust. He’s played a few international games but hasn’t consistently trained for the last month. He’ll come on in the second half and be interested exactly how Casemiro was in his first season.That lineup I said before that he won't play Ugarte. I reckon he'll try to avoid playing him at all because it wasn't his signing, hence all the talk about him not being ready.
Rashford must always play of course. Absolute shambles of a manager. A full summer of signings and a lineup that looks worse than last season.We have 2 DMs (well, 1.5). Both on the bench in place of a guy with zero pace and about 5 years + a literal heart attack past his peakEriksen, the only player in the squad with brain but no legs.Need some goals from our attackers. Let’s get some confidence! Want to see a positive GDPutting a lot of faith in the back four, not much protection from the midfield.
I have a feeling you will require a dark room in which to lay your poor head later.If we’re not going to win by at least 4 goals I’m not going to watch the game and support my team.
<collects toys from around pram>
He usually does that. Antony and Mazraoui had to start because there werent other options but otherwise he slowly intregrates them into the starting line up. I find it strange too.
Worst moment was hen he kept Casemiro on the bench for McT when Casemiro joined the club and he was still the Real Madrid version of Casemiro. Casemiro on the bench for McT!Bad language? On camera? Who? What?
And players he’s overlooked for months are always thrown in as a rescue actThat’s a bold XI against a team we really should be beating regardless. De Ligt and Martinez will need to be on it all game.Going for a counter attack approach with Eriksen? Could work given Southampton’s possession based approach.
Don‘t agree, Garnacho has been poor and De Ligt is way better than Maguire.
Amad is our best winger right now.Please don’t break this record ETH. Not lost to them away for over 8 years
Do you really believe this?That lineup I said before that he won't play Ugarte. I reckon he'll try to avoid playing him at all because it wasn't his signing, hence all the talk about him not being ready.
Rashford must always play of course. Absolute shambles of a manager. A full summer of signings and a lineup that looks worse than last season.Not the worst team, Eriksen is gonna just ping balls about and create chances for our forwards against the Saints back 3.
Zirkzee hattrick, diallo with a brace, Rashford 14 shots and zero goals, Dalot with a screamer from 35 yards. Fernandes 3 penalties converted.
10-9 Southampton.- Status
