MARTINS RETURN WITH SARFAMPTON ON TOW .

The Blobster

Prediction Champ
Martin returns with a Saints team in top form , let's hope for a credible performance after our humiliation at St.Marys in December .

Williams has had time to assess his squad so let's hope that he doesn't funnel any square pegs into round holes .

Early kick off for this one and I'll miss the game as I'm out to lunch, so hopefully someone else can post the Wooooohooooo's

We all will, so let's hope there's lots of 'em!! Luke will know all about Martin (vice versa I know) but I think he'll be extra keen to do well. Player for player Soton have clear superiority, so they should win. BUT I'm hoping our lot will think they have a score to settle with regard to the previous game and will be trying that much harder.

Soton should win but we're capable of snatching a draw and, given the run of the ball, we could even grab an unlikely looking win. And it would help if Cullen is played where he should be to take advantage of any faffing around at the back that Soton are prone to do.

If we are serious about competing against Bournemouth by playing our best XI (including Rushworth), then this match is a great dress rehearsal.

Swansea City: Carl Rushworth, Jay Fulton, Harry Darling, Matt Grimes (captain), Jamal Lowe, Jamie Paterson, Josh Tymon, Liam Cullen, Nathan Wood, Harrison Ashby, Bashir Humphreys.

It’s 3+2, CB are Darling, Wood, Humphreys, then Ashby and Tymon as WB.

Which means Cullen is playing up top with Lowe in his 100th match for the Club.

grimes, Fulton and Pato are midfield

Trouble starts for them

Tymon and Ashby were supposed to have picked up knocks last week, so it's good they're in the squad.

3-4-2-1 again. 5-4-1 when defending, which we will be doing for 90 minutes today.

Lowe up front with Cullen and Pato as double 10s.

Soton are going to rip us apart on the wings. Another 5:0 trashing.
