The Dugout Discussion – Southampton vs Everton

2,080 Comments
Share

Saturday’s events get underway with a clash between Southampton and Everton at St Mary’s this lunchtime. Both sides are looking for a first win of the new campaign after registering 2-2 draws with Newcastle and Watford last weekend.

The Saints proved a reliable source of defensive returns at home last year, chalking up 11 clean sheets in front of their own fans and conceding a mere 13 times – only Chelsea (nine) proved more miserly.

After netting twice at St James’ Park last week, they’ll be looking to take advantage of a Toffees backline devoid of the injured Leighton Baines. Certainly, given that the visitors managed just two clean sheets on their travels last season, those backing the Saints at both ends of the pitch will fancy their chances of getting amongst the points.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter

    Why was Rooney in Scout picks when he's on bad form, not scored at Villa park since 2007 and not scored in 14 away games?

    Utd bias?

      Because villa have a horrible defensive record under sherwood, Rooney is now the focal point of utds attack.

      Really need something from Cedric 🙁

      My defence is letting me down so much compared to other teams in my ML. That's what I get for getting all of Hazard, Aguero and, ehem, Rooney from the off.
