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

    1. Norb
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Seems to be ok

  3. The Raging Bull
    • 12 Years

    Pelle has caused me so much pain today, he should come with a health warning.

  5. Nabs Kebabs
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    No Lescott or Bassong 🙁

    1. Thick Of It
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Are you 2 central defenders down?

      1. Nabs Kebabs
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        i thought i was, just Lescott though

        1. Thick Of It
          • 13 Years
          10 years, 7 months ago

          Lucky escape, surely Bassong is their number 1 defender? Weird with Lescott though

    2. Nabs Kebabs
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      actually Bassong is there, my apologies

    3. Count of Monte Hristo
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Bassong starts dafty

    4. Ludo
      • 12 Years

          • 14 Years
          10 years, 7 months ago

          Switched from Ki this week, his resemblance to Evs sealed the deal

  10. Syd.
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Imagine selling Lukaku for Pelle

    Grrrrrrrrrrr

    1. FrancescoLazio
      • 10 Years

      Schoolboy error

    2. BIG TONES
      • 11 Years

  11. Texas Pete

  12. Kanu Feel It

  13. Trigg ⭐️
    • 13 Years

  14. Bailey
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Was I a muppet to transfer in Tadic for Walcott last night?

    1. BrockLanders
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Time will tell

    2. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      yes.

      1. Bailey
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        Goddamn it

  15. Az
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 16 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Kane, Schmeichs, Sakho

    Get me something... this is dire!

  16. BrockLanders
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Looks like Rooney, Pelle & Mane captain picks have been nothing short of horrendous

    1. sozopol
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      mane(c) here. was so relieved after yesterday...

    2. Mark
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 19 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      We haven't had a predictable captain turn up yet this season so very few have really capitalised.

      1. Jax
        • 16 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        true that

      2. BrockLanders
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 7 months ago

        True. I'm on Benteke but not convinced he was even the right choice.

    3. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      i'm not gonna rest on my "soton blanked" laurels yet.. still 25 mins left and they looking dangerous now

    4. SW6
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Could be costly if Benteke brings in a strong haul.

  17. Venom Snake
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Mane needs to play in the middle

  18. Wouter
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    This is the Spurs bench apparently: #COYS subs: Vorm, Rose, Trippier, Alli, Bentaleb, Carroll, Lamela

    1. Jax
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      it is their bench.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      ummm.. okay...

  19. QGOONER
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Surprised Sunderland's backline is unchanged

    1. Mark
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 19 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Yeah, vote of confidence for John O'Shea.

    2. Valar(Keith)
      • 16 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      Good on Advocaat to not kneejerk and stick with his new look CB's and look to the future rather than the past.. Oshea is not an improvement.. he jsut dint play in the last game so seemed a better option to bring in 🙂 ..

  20. SW6
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    What's funny about this is there is gonna be a whole load of people who now go out and buy Lukaku 🙂

    1. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 7 months ago

      That would be a positive for us

  21. gunnerboy
    • 13 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Jenkinson starts! 😀

  25. Thick Of It
    • 13 Years

    Pelle is not scoring today.

  29. Texas Pete
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 7 months ago

    Nevermind Mane scoring, can't see S'hampton scoring at all. They're only just maanaging to pass the thing.
