I'd start him on Sunday. Home match, friendly atmosphere, everyone willing him on. It's an easier game (on paper) than burnley away. They are pretty good at home & I would play son ahead of Janssen there.

One of my biggest criticisms of Poch this season.
If anyone deserves the start in this game it's Son. If things are going good for Son it's usually apparent around the 60' mark. I think Vinny can take the game by the scruff of the neck so long as Eriksen hasn't been subbed off.
Or seeing as Poch likes wingers, why not a 442 at some point during games..?
Walker..........Toby........Jan...........Davies
Son..........Dembele.......Vic............Eriksen
.....................Dele
..................................Janssen
Son and Eriksen obviously cutting in, fullbacks overlapping and Wanyama playing box to box.
Old fashioned maybe, but there is still a place in football for this formation in my opinion.
Id be willing to bet Man U late 90's would destroy todays Chelsea.

This is what i'm expecting tactically from southampon.
- Their defence and midfield is weak, they will park the bus and try to hit us on the counter.
- The kink in our armour against players with pace is on the left hand flank with Davies and Vertonghen. I expect them to attack this area.Hopefully Dembele drops in a bit to help out.
- Walker needs to make sure he tracks back but I am sure Dier & alderweireld will dictate well from the back.
-Dembele & Wanyama will win the midfield battle.
- Our creative players Dele,Eriksen & Son will probably try to go centrally, given Southampton's weak defence we may have an few chances
- Southampton will try to exploit any space if we start three at the pack, I am not against starting 3 , just as long as we aren't caught out by counter attacks.
- Players to watchout for are obviously Redmond & tadic.
- I'd rather we start sissoko as a battering ram, but i know this is a risk too.
- I also predict Jassen may start, otherwise we will not have a plan B.

I'm still fuming at the fact we couldn't beat this shit in our last home game of last season - even a point against these lot in that game would have seen us finish above Woolwich.
That should be the main motivation this Sunday - avenge that defeat, keep up our unbelievable home form with yet another win, enjoy the fact that at least one of our rivals would have dropped points at the weekend and hopefully go into the international break in second place, no more injuries and look forward to our next league game with Rose and Kane closer to a return.

We are going to beat them.
Poch has this sorted.
why not remove the risk of destroying his confidence altogether by just not picking him for the match day squad at all? Get him out doing some stewarding or selling programmes. That should buck him up a bit
Gabbiadini?
Think Victor and Kyle will be fine. Good to have Dembele back as well. COYS
Always loved playing against soton. That useless striker on my avatar made it one beautiful day for a poor yiddo going to school after THAT comeback. and we usually get results against them
But they are a dangerous side who could slip one through and then fall deep with a nicely parked bus so we ought to blitz them from the start.
repeat please
EDIT: fucking hell Steffen Iversen still plays football!

This will be a four or five one win to us.
Their defence is actually awful. They've been punching well above their weight this season.
I made a bit of cash with a bet on us beating Millwall 6-0 so I must know what I'm talking about.

Honestly think Trippier should start it. Deserves it on the back of recent performances
3 point is a must. Best 11 not a tims to change things around. Southampton can score goals and able to concede. We must be on it from the off. Son to play instead of kane, no brainer. Janssen will get a kick. We must be sound at the back, we mustnt allow them a sniff at goal because they have that Italian up front who like s to score one or two, Gabbidinni (spelling?). This could be tough or as easy as when we beat them 4-0. Im going for tough, 3-2 win- just out score them.
Southampton have always been a feeder club. I have freind who supported them in the early 80s then switched to Woolwich? True. He went to Southampton games and wore southampton badges etc.. you couldnt make it up.
