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

    Everton don't believe in marking at set pieces.

    Those of you wanting to wildcard considering the season so far, hold on until after gw4:

    * Transfer window is closed
    * Good timing to get rid of Chelsea defenders
    * Saints still got 2 'easy' games ahead
    * More information about the fitness of big hitters like Hazard Sanchez Aguero
    * Liverpool starts a good run of fixtures after the Man United game
    * We'll know more about the KDB saga
    ...

      lol. as an owner of Mane for most of last season i'd say he is easily worth 7.5 to 8(considering the way Ozil et al priced) and can be frustrating to own but will get you points in the long run. I could not do it to myself again so ignored him this season

      Scored or assisted 50% of Southampton's goals last season. I'd rather go on that than two matches so far this term.
