Traore and Trincao benched as Lage makes changes for Southampton clash

Gameweek 6 continues with Southampton hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers at St Mary’s Stadium this afternoon.

Kick-off is at 14:00 BST.

The Saints makes one change from the XI that drew 0-0 at Manchester City last weekend, with Mohammed Salisu (£4.5m) replacing Jack Stephens (£4.5m), who is set to be out for up to three months with a knee injury.

That means another start for budget defender Tino Livramento (£4.2m), with Adam Armstrong (£6.0m) and Che Adams (£6.9m) leading the line in Ralph Hasenhuttl’s 4-2-2-2 formation.

As for Wolves, Bruno Lage makes three changes from the side that lost 2-0 at home to Brentford in Gameweek 5.

Adama Traore (£6.0m), Francisco Trincao (£5.9m) and Ruben Neves (£5.4m) all drop out, with new-signing Hee-chan Hwang (£5.5m), Daniel Podence (£5.5m) and Leander Dondoncker (£4.8m) replacing them in the starting XI.

Rayan Ait-Nouri (£4.3m) is unavailable because of concussion protocol.

GAMEWEEK 6 LINE-UPS

Southampton XI: McCarthy, Livramento, Bednarek, Salisu, Walker-Peters, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Elyounoussi, Redmond, A Armstrong, Adams

Subs: Forster, Perraud, Valery, Lyanco, Diallo, Tella, Djenepo, Long, Broja

Wolves XI: Sa, Kilman, Coady, Saiss, Semedo, Moutinho, Dendoncker, Marcal, Hwang, Podence, Jimenez

    First time watching Livramento in full, what a talent!

    What is it with Chelsea's academy and right backs...

    1. @persecuted_by_mods
        2 years, 7 months ago

        With tuchels love of fullbacks that can dribble wouldn't surprise me if he's Chelsea's long term RB over James

        1. Rainer
          • 7 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          James' athleticism at RCB similar to Walker for England. Much better delivery from deep too!

      • have you seen cyan
        • 4 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Livra is a starter given his fixtures. Think I will ditch Marcal after this game and play Livra

    2. President Giggs
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Sa you absolute legend

    3. Alexis Nonsense
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      Sá assist???

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years

        YESSSS

    4. Rainer
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 7 months ago

      This is made for Traore on the counter now...

    5. Scots Gooner
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years

      Surely scoring makes Traore's appearance from the bench even tastier? What the waiting for? Let this guy loose on the counter before Southampton score.

    6. Arteta

      Ramsdale; Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tierney; Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard; Smith Rowe, Aubameyang, Saka.

      1. SEXY SALAH

        Spurs?

      2. diesel001

        Xhaka in the team. Bad times. Must have something over Arsenal to keep getting picked. Was the same under Wenger, Emery too.

          It's crazy. Why he comes straight back in over Sambi, who has been good, is beyond me.

          He can let the team down time and time again, but straight back into the team he goes.

        Ramsdale confirmed as no 1 yet?

    7. Maddi Son

      Sa with another save point. Currently looking at a 14 pointer.

      1. Rainer
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Wait till they concede...

      2. @persecuted_by_mods
          2 years, 7 months ago

          Relegation candidates

      3. diesel001
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 7 months ago

        Traore on
        Podence off

      4. Hazz

        • 6 Years

        Goal - TRAORE
        Assist - SEMEDO

        Southampton 0-2 Wolves (75 mins)

        Is what I'd like to see 😉

      5. nerd_is_the_werd
        • 4 Years

        Come on Sá, 1 more save!

        1. @persecuted_by_mods
            2 years, 7 months ago

            Just got it from the freekick

          • _Gunner
            • 9 Years
            2 years, 7 months ago

            he already got the 6th save

        2. Eze Really?
          • 9 Years
          2 years, 7 months ago

          The best moment of my season.
          Took a minus 8 and up until the hour mark in the second set of games I was still a minus.
          Not g=finished yet but Jimi i have had since day 1 and for all the wrong reasons.
          He has just put me above the average curve.
          GOOD ON YA JIMI!!!!
