    Shoud please RedArmy1 !
    Seed. lol

    Seaborne is on loan and the side above are not good enough to have any time on the ball or record shots on Target.

    Firstly the side has got to work exceptionally hard to deny Chelsea time and space on the ball.

    then they need the Quality to go and WIN a game of football.

    Hoover is error prone.

    Gaston needs games to get better and better.

    Jack Cork MoM is needed for his Defensive qualities and WILL want to play.

    Jrod is his natural position should be up for consideration with the option to bring SIR RICKIE later on in the game.

    Not sure Fox will deal with the threat down the wings. Like when he delivers crosses - but not good enough for Chelsea.

    Nigel needs to have a similar side to Arsenal (poss 1 or 2 tweaks) and have a strong bench.

    This game is a good game for the Players to get ready for VILLA AWAY.

    WORK 'EM HARD NIGEL. THE TEAM PLAY SO MUCH BETTER.

    Injuries and Cards are not too much of a worry as SOUTHAMPTON play fairly and are well placed in that League.

Lallana out, but Clyne could return

Adam Lallana will not feature against Chelsea in Saturday's FA Cup third round tie at St Mary's, although full-back Nathaniel Clyne could return.

Saints captain Lallana remains out with a knee injury and is likely to be sidelined with the problem for some weeks yet.

Right-back Nathaniel Clyne has missed the last two matches, also with a knee complaint, but could come into contention, while Gaston Ramirez is available after sustaining a dead leg in Tuesday's 1-1 draw with Arsenal.

Emmanuel Mayuka is also available before leaving for African Cup of Nations duty with Zambia on Sunday.

Saints manager Nigel Adkins has indicated he is planning to name a stronger line-up than he used in the Capital One Cup this season, but also hinted that some players could be handed a break.

"The Capital One Cup was a great opportunity to play some of the younger players, who have now gone on to play for us in the Premier League," he said.

"I want to go and win the game against Chelsea, but I also have to be mindful that we have had a run of fixtures that are very close together.

"I have to make sure we arrive on the pitch on Saturday full of energy and not risking anyone picking up a serious injury."
