manure...do we park the bus n hope for a draw...or fix bayonets n go for glory !!!
Our best hope is to put ten men behind the ball, defend the entire match and hope that we score off a free-kick/corner/get a penalty. If we attack and go 'gung ho' as dpmd puts it, we will be absolutely battered, which is what happened when we tried this approach against Liverpool. Southampton can afford to be more attacking in their approach against the big sides because they actually have a set of players who can pass to each other and control the ball, as well as a half-decent striker.

yep, this.
I highly doubt the gung ho brigade were being rational after the Liverpool match. If there were lots of posts saying 'well at least we had a go, rather that than park the bus and lose 1-0' I must have missed them...
