The Cherries v the Indomitable Saints

4-1 Saints. 1-1 at half time. Boufal to score a sexy little goal to get the team back up for it just after half time. Get your money on it*

*Disclaimer: I lost money betting on Saints to win against Man City.

Mmm. Not so sure, best result came with a much longer and more amusing match thread title…

1-1

It was December last year that we had a very much needed shot in the arm, at Bournemouth, with a truly great away performance. Well even JRod scored a cracker, in our 1-3 win.

Just cannot see it this season.

I beg to differ @sfcsim it has a 1:2 win for us written all over it.

Make the most of my optimism - it’ll probably be gone by 3:15 tomorrow, give or take a few minutes of extra time.

After the midweek games and yesterday’s results, this is another massive game for us. Need to get 3 more points on the board ahead of some tough December fixtures.

Interested to see what side he picks, especially in midfield. Hojberg did very well against Everton but I can’t see him not picking Lemina and Romeu. Where does he play Davis if he opts with ML and OR? Was JWP injured in midweek or just rested/dropped? Fingers crossed my mate Redmond is too tired after getting 90 minutes and then sucking off Pep straight after the game.

I expect Austin to be restored upfront. Would still love to see him and Gabbiadini play together.

Cedric is out so will Pied come in from the cold and get a game?

Soooooo many questions!

Is everyone alright with the New Forest Derby?

Sixty years ago, it would have been a Hampshire derby.

Its not a Derby.

I still think of Bournemouth as the third division team that we play pre season to help fund them.

Forster at right back and no keeper.

Brave.

I can only assume Lemina is not fit/ still a bit injured. Ive always been impressed by Pied when I’ve seen him so have no concerns about that. Ive got my fingers crossed.

I’d put Forster up front and Long in goal, on the basis that they couldn’ do any fucking worse than in their current positions.
