Saints plans hit by injury

SAINTS could face a switch back to 4-5-1 this afternoon with David Connolly and Adam Lallana set to miss the trip to Northampton.
Both players are struggling with injury and are not expected to play in the second round FA Cup tie.
Saints are already without Kelvin Davis, who sustained a groin injury in Tuesday’s 3-1 win at Hartlepool. Neal Trotman is also out with a one-match suspension, while Jacob Mellis is not being allowed to play in the cup by his parent club, Chelsea.
Connolly has picked up a groin problem, while Lallana is struggling with a knee issue, meaning the list of absentees has grown further.
Full story in today's Daily Echo.

Would be good to see Mills and Holmes down the left. Just a shame Jake is still on loan... Still hope Papa starts and rules the game. Why not give Saga a go?... Put his lasy **** in the shop window and Northampton may offer him a contract if they get stuffed.
Come on Bart we are all behind you, step up and fill KD's boots.

I thought about the way Pards has been favouring speed and hard work but leaving out those that haven't performed... a lot did really well beating Bristol City Res's so maybe we'll see some young fellows in action with a strong bench ready to bail us out if need be. A great chance: Haven't a clue how far he'll go so I'll go as far as I can imagine.
A great chance today to give some of the fringe players a chance, may even unearth another Saints gem..

If Holmes doesn't get a run on I guess it's all over for him at Saints.
I'd like the young ones to start with the faith that the regulars can pull this back quickly if they have too.
(this is the mad extreme not a real selection.. but it does show some depth coming through.

Preen Gobern Hammond(c) Holmes
Papa Paterson

Just finished work so off to bed for a couple of hours then up and streaming live I hope...

PS in reality I would expect Martin to start and Molyneux Preen & Argent to make the bench.

It is a good chance to see just how good the rest of the squad is, it would be nice to get through to the next round first time but I wouldn't mind a replay!

We can afford to give one or two younger players a run out. We are going to have to use depth of squad over the next few months. let's see how a couple of youngsters shape up. he intimated it was time for some of the young players to shape up. Surprise inclusions maybe Lancashire or Martin. For one maybe a last chance to impress and for the other a first.
Expect to see several youngsters go in january, think we will lose Chris Perry to, which I think is a shame. Against the likes of Brighton and Norwich he would have been a plus. But he obviously doesn't suit the manager. Expect Trotman and Antonio to sign. Plus a striker. I doubt a midfield player unless he ships a couple out.
Interesting times, lots of surprises and good things. Hope today is one of them.

This from The Gulls site.. which would have been nice to read in the Echo too.
Poke, who has been in fine form for the Gulls, said: "With due respect to Southampton, I would rather be playing games, if I'm honest.
"I didn't want to go back and sit on the subs' bench. I would rather play at Torquay."
An additional factor was Poke's domestic arrangements.
He, partner Leanne and new baby daughter Molly have just moved into rented accommodation in Paignton.
"We've just sorted out an apartment and got settled, so when this came out of the blue, we thought we would have to move again," he said."
(sounds like he'll be picked up by Torquay when his contract runs out in Jan).

Only right to rest connolly if in any doubt,but stresses how light we are in that department. Antonio alongside Ricky ? I would. Imagine the space that would create for lambo. Some cute through balls from midfield and he would run riot.
Interesting times.

Feel sorry for Bart. Starting without Trotman isn't best.
