The Dugout Discussion – Southampton vs Everton

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 did Lukaku get his boot shined after scoring with his head?

    and of course my ML leader benched Yaya and played Matic/Schneiderlin

    but hey, he got double United defense and brought in Kone this GW (got his 0.1 rise as well)

    77 points last week and 17 yesterday. Today Kone already at it

    Southampton were never going to reproduce their defensive record of last season. Still think their attack is worth investing in though
