Maybe he doesn't think the others are ready for the Premier League yet. Let's hope we can keep a clean sheet and Llorente and Baston find their shooting boots. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Naughton can cover left back. Neither Taylor nor Kingsley can cover if Kyle gets injured, so obvious for Angel to be the fullback sub. plus he looked superb last week, when he came on. I'd personally start him. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

The Offical Southampton FC Versus Swansea City Premier League Match Thread on 14:07 - Sep 18 by JFSwan | 4-3-3 , as we finished the Chelsea game. Doesn't get the best from glyfi but he will be important out wide when we don't have the ball, this also releases fer through the middle |
I don't think it is a 4-3-3. I think it's a 4-2-1-2-1 Cork and Ki are the defensive shield, Fer ahead of them, pulling the strings. Siggy staying closer to Llorente, narrow either side, and Mo operating wider on the opposite to where Siggy is playing. Mo and Siggy to help cover the fullback defensively. Then we have loads of attacking options off the bench with Borja, Jeff and Wayne on the bench. Interesting set up, and caused Chelsea enough problems second half. I fancy us for opts today with that line-up. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

In an interview afterwards Guidolin described the formation as 4-3-2-1. Not that it really matters. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Do you mean making the back four flat? I'm pretty sure they're under orders to stay as pushed as they can these days as we set up to counter attack a lot. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

Wouldn't have Joey back to be honest, I don't think he's a significant improvement on what we've got. Would probably take Wilf back because I think we suit each other's style, but think his stock is falling rapidly too. | ![](/images/avatars/9145.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Probably has something to do with the fact that their defensive strategy last season revolved around wrestling opponents off the ball - especially at free kicks and corners. Not so easy to do that this season? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Fine when we have the ball. But when we lose possession they need to get back into position quickly. Redmond has plenty of pace if he's left up against a centre half with no cover. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
