Saints aiming to avoid Suarez repeat (From Daily Echo)

Suarez is a real threat. Best kick him hard.

With his movement I hope Hooiveld is out of the firing line.
I like Jos, but he is reactive rather than proactive, and gives strikers too much space, at times.
Need to stop the ball getting to him, which will be the toughest test for the new playing system to date.

Liverpool are not a one man team, so concentrating on Suarez will leave it open for other players to capitalise. However he is very clever and as we play high, we are very vulnerable to those dinked balls over the Centre Backs. It is going to be hard to supress Liverpool, our only hope is that they think that they only have to turn up to beat us. Any kind of positive result will be a bonus. COYRs

What you mean we need to kick several of them?

Obviously, but not in front of the Referee, he will be looking for every opportunity to punish us, we are the new bad boys on the block apparently.

Can't prepare a team against players throwing themselves to the ground all day trying to win a pen or free kick.

The best thing about him is he would rather have a wayward shot at goal than pass

If we had been more agressive earlier in the season I think we would have had better rewards.

Wasn't Nigels way!

Anyway don't matter know cos we aint gonna be in the Europa league next season,so lets concentrate on staying in this one.
Our rep apparently is shot, so bu&&er it!
COYS.

That's precisely what we need to do.

They literally muscled Bale out of the game last weekend by going very hard into 50/50 challenges and riding their luck with the ref. For all their reputation as an attractive passing side they're also a tough, physical team who will mix it.

It will be interesting to see how this combines with our high pressing and new-found 'competitiveness' (ie arsiness') plus the 'latin' temparament of Suarez. I predict some red cards. Hopefully for him/them.

THE CRUISE WAR IS HERE AND NOW.

I've advised Mauricio that if, as I suspect he will, Brendan gets Gerrard to play in his hole tomorrow, Spiderman should take him out early before he can come on strong and thus make room for Adam to get in there with his dinked balls and then push up, thrust forward, open up the back door and score.

At the end I'd like to see Gerrard thoroughly frustrated tomorrow having watched Adam go down the tunnel well satisfied.

I think the use of the word 'arsiness' here is crude and unnecessary. This forum is read by all ages and sensitivities. Can we stick to high standards please Retford?

If football was as predictable as some of the more nervous on here thought then we would have no chance this weekend. I say to you, did you believe we could bit Citeh, did you believe Gooners could beat Bayern in the Allianz, did it seem likely the skunts would win another game before liquidation.
There’s only 3 certainties in life - you’re born, the wife spends all your money, you die.

SRL hat-rick .... Saints win 3-2.

THINK POSITIVE!!!
Last home game the atmosphere was totally negative because we didnt know whether to shriek abuse at the Cockney git or support the team. In the end we did neither effectively.

Tomorrow is another day and Liverpool are beatable, the only thing that will can us would be the Clattenburg.

COYR I remember way back we scored in 4th minute against the Scouse at the Dell came out winners 1 0. Same again please!!

Disagree. One of the joys of playing against a known diver like Suarez is that unless your tackle actually results in amputation of a foot the ref gives you the benefit of the doubt.

So, I expect Hoover, the first time Suarez tries to run, to give him "a good tap, then he won't try again" (My dad's words, the words of the player voted best player in the Sheffield Altar Boys league in 1936 - who can deny the truth of it).

I haven't met the new man, but I was invited to an audience with his illustrious predecessor after he had heard that I was the greatest fan of the Saints in Britain.

Unfortunately the meeting didn't go too well.

I think he was expecting I might ask the usual kind of questions such as "Why does God allow pain and suffering?". But what I wanted to know was things like "Why didn't He make sperm taste like chocolate? Or rain taste minty so everyone's got nice breath? Why does the Church disapprove of surrogate mothers when Mary was one? Why can't physics and chemistry be used for birth control when mathematics is ok?
Wouldn't it have been a much better miracle if Jonah had swallowed the whale?

He just shrugged me off, but then he seemed to get right agitated when I told him that I was forced to question whether the Bible really is all good - because my mate Dave dropped his Bible on his pet mouse and it killed it.

Anyway, I was finally told to leave after asking if the Pope always used an anti-bacterial wipe before people kissed his ring.

It was all very disappointing and quite puzzling too really. Still - you can't win 'em all.

I do still have the Pope's e mail address if any of you on here have any questions you want me to pass on.

WE CAN WIN AGAINST .... POOL.

BY STRENGTH AND GUILE.

MP SORT IT !!

RICKIE IS IMMENSE !!!
GASTON AND ADAM TO SCORE.

WE ARE SOUTHAMPTON.

RED ARMY 2013.

You're going to need very deep pockets of gold now Mr Wenger.

Villa v QPR is the standout game of interest this weekend, or is it?
Sunderland v Norwich intrigues me. If the Mackems lose, they are on a nose dive that they may not have the fight to get out of.

We only signed him in the summer, if they want to force him away it's going to cost them a decent premium over and above our £12m. To be honest, whilst a lot of his touches impress me I think we could do better for the £17m+ they would have to pay us.

From what I've seen of Coutinho he looks like an excellent buy for £8m. That's the sort of deal we need to be making and I guess that's why MoPo was brought in and poor old Nigel given the bullet - better contacts.

Perhaps he like Nigel was never going to be interested in your well considered advice.
Keep trying though the new boy maybe better. If you can't win him over,at least you still have your fan base here.

MP will have to totally alter tactics to avoid defeat. Suarez and others are simply to quick-of-thought for our defenders and we will need to treat tomorrow almost like an away game and try to disrupt the play more often than we want to get behind them.Play it cagey for 60 and then try and switch gear. Difficult but possible.

i dont see that .they wont play like qpr to stop us play .we do have to concentrate at the back .but liverpool is not as good as utd city or chelsea .they have there days losing at hime to villa and wba its how they turn up on the day .not to concede a early could be important like wigan did and got hammered.its not a game were expected to win .we have other more winnable games ahead.but i think anything from this is a bonus .we we have a good chance .if we score early .we will have what i call the best back 5 borac clyne shaw fonte yoshida .with this 5 in the side the record is good .do have a cover issue .and looks like adams getting match fitness after missing games.he does add a lot to the team .anything can happen .a game we can win when not expected as city found out

Team: Boruc, Clyne, Yoshida, Hoovield, Shaw, Spider, Cork, Ramirez, Lallana, Rodriguez, Lambert

Decent.

Is Davis still ill or just dropped from starting 11?

Davis is on the bench

Is Fonte injured again? Not too sure about the Hoover against this lot.

Liverpool are not a one man team, so concentrating on Suarez will leave it open for other players to capitalise. However he is very clever and as we play high, we are very vulnerable to those dinked balls over the Centre Backs. It is going to be hard to supress Liverpool, our only hope is that they think that they only have to turn up to beat us. Any kind of positive result will be a bonus. COYRs

What you mean we need to kick several of them?

That's precisely what we need to do.

They literally muscled Bale out of the game last weekend by going very hard into 50/50 challenges and riding their luck with the ref. For all their reputation as an attractive passing side they're also a tough, physical team who will mix it.

It will be interesting to see how this combines with our high pressing and new-found 'competitiveness' (ie arsiness') plus the 'latin' temparament of Suarez. I predict some red cards. Hopefully for him/them.

I think the use of the word 'arsiness' here is crude and unnecessary. This forum is read by all ages and sensitivities. Can we stick to high standards please Retford?

Have you been inspired by the new pope.
Just asking.

I haven't met the new man, but I was invited to an audience with his illustrious predecessor after he had heard that I was the greatest fan of the Saints in Britain.

Unfortunately the meeting didn't go too well.

I think he was expecting I might ask the usual kind of questions such as "Why does God allow pain and suffering?". But what I wanted to know was things like "Why didn't He make sperm taste like chocolate? Or rain taste minty so everyone's got nice breath? Why does the Church disapprove of surrogate mothers when Mary was one? Why can't physics and chemistry be used for birth control when mathematics is ok?
Wouldn't it have been a much better miracle if Jonah had swallowed the whale?

He just shrugged me off, but then he seemed to get right agitated when I told him that I was forced to question whether the Bible really is all good - because my mate Dave dropped his Bible on his pet mouse and it killed it.

Anyway, I was finally told to leave after asking if the Pope always used an anti-bacterial wipe before people kissed his ring.

It was all very disappointing and quite puzzling too really. Still - you can't win 'em all.

I do still have the Pope's e mail address if any of you on here have any questions you want me to pass on.

In fairness Confucious..if he could get a couple of tips re catering from god's nipper Saints could turn a right prophet..

Seriously: buy a couple of loaves and a few hot dogs hey presto whole stadium is fed..enormous margins..as for beer and wine weellll enough said.

Virgin Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin trains...

...surely god must of copyrighted Virgin births...

...all those fertility clinics owe a blöédy fortune...

...and as we are the Saints ergo his representatives on earth we should be collecting.
