The trouble is, after Sats win against the league leaders & in their own back yard, the expectations amongst our fans, especially on the HOL will be enormous....& god help us if we lose.

After playing the best team in the country away and winning it's hard to see how this match will be tougher even with some injuries to our defence but having said that I would be more than happy with a point.

Our defensive cover is an issue though. Sakho & Damo should be ok but Tomkins may not be and Dann is probably out for the rest of the season

Would be nice to have Tomkins available, even if it's only off the bench. Kelly is cover otherwise, which isn't as terrifying as it was a few weeks ago, so there's that.

 


We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

We could be without Tomkins,dann and potentially Sakho. Their wasn't much expectation against Chelsea . Despite a fantastic performance and result. The expectation to get a win against Southampton will be higher.

Southampton will be tougher than Chelsea? Mid table Saints with nothing to play for compared with the league leaders fighting for the title with the best home record. What a ridiculous title for the thread.

Even without Tomkins and Dann we've got Sakho and Damo. I'm not suggesting Saints will be an easy win, in fact I'd bite your hand off for a draw. Think about the the title next time.

The next game is always the toughest ask any manager.
Have you ever heard of the term nothing to lose. When we visited Chelsea, pudits and fans predicted a loss. Therefore the pressure on us was small. With Liverpool,city and Utd as the last 3 away. The Southampton game is one where Sam would expect a positive result.

Call me "Negative" but I'm not expecting a "Positive result". I fear it will be a case of "After the Lord Mayor's show". The Chelsea game will have taken a lot out of the players and we have picked up injuries. We still have it all to do to avoid relegation.

Any complacency that the other teams would have had has now gone. Southampton like us are a good team on their day lets hope its not their day they like us are missing key players.

Typical Palace to waste the Chelsea result.
