But going into a derby, form is, I guess, thrown out the window a little bit.

would say they're definitely the better side at the moment um they've got the better players they've spent the more money they've got the better resources they're making more money from their transfers they're profiting more than we are they've got a bigger stadium you know there's a long list of things but like you say when the derby comes around that does go out the window and even if they are heavy strong odds on favorites i do still fancy us to steal a steal a result there I just think it depends massively on how the first sort of 10 minutes go because if you look at the game last season even though they were off the form they didn't press us high up the pitch they let us have the ball and we we made a good game of it and we very easily could have stolen that game even though it was a low scoring nil nil and so I think yeah it depends massively on the first few minutes and how they let us play I can't see them going into the game the same way they did last season with Eckhart as the coach.

I think they will press us high up the pitch, and I think we will struggle to get the ball out of our own half for much of the game, to be honest.

You can talk all you want about tactics and playing as fancy football as you can and getting in behind teams, but ultimately getting these kind of players like Terry Devlin and players that are going to really go there to try and intimidate the opponent, of course, being in this situation in Southampton, it's probably worth a little bit more.

Yeah, and I can see the argument for playing all of our most scary players.

But then at the same time, if you do that, you are just playing for a 0-0 draw.

You've got to have Abu Kamara on the pitch to get the ball up the pitch.
