Vic looks shot. Am hoping against hope that Janssen at least makes the bench.

Nah, that fat Janssen who used to play for Ajax. I forget his name.Vincent Janssen?
Without Winks, I seriously worry about us in possession and opening up the opposition. It's a damning indictment that Foyth would probably be more comfortable receiving the ball and passing forwards than our available CMs...
Saints have been playing much better under their new boss so this won't be easy.
Spoke to a Saints fan at work and he said that whilst they have been improving, they're still really suspect at the back and can't keep clean sheets. He also said that their Strikers are largely crocked. No Ings, Austin is playing with an injury so they only have Long.
We really need to win this game before a long break so we should go full strength. Need to abandon the back 3 for a back 4, have more attacking players on the pitch and try to get an early goal.
Team in the OP would be my choice as well. Dele on the bench if he's fit enough.
Not been any talk of Winks being injured as far as I've seen so hopefully he was subbed off as a precaution.
In my opinion its not about resting Eriksen because of fatigue, but resting him because of poor form. Eriksen has not been with the program for sometime now although alot on here will deny itNo one gets rested.

Wow looking at the team, such a lack of creativity, technique and touch in there. Most of the skill lies in the CB! Very poor poor scouting not identifying technical players.Time to stick to one formation for the rest of the season. I’m all for the 3 at the back. Chopping and changing all the time is not helping us this season.
Now Dele’s back, Eriksen drops out.

I beg to disagree as I would put Lamela in his place in a heart beat, What if Eriksen was to get injured? Are you saying that we then would be doomed because we didnt have an alternative? Disagree all you want but I can see that part of our poor results in recent games is down to our weakened midfield playing an off form EriksenSo dropping him, not resting.
I don't think you'll find anyone who would dispute that Eriksen has been in poor form. Unfortunately the players that might replace him like Lamela and Moura have done nothing to suggest they're a better bet than even an out of form Eriksen.
