Whatever man. When your done advocating what Southampton did last night I'll engage in a conversation with you.
Until then, leave me alone.

It was almost as if Raheem said to himself "So disallow my first goal would you? Well pick the bones out of THAT!"
If Forster hadn't played so well it would have been 4/5-1.
Buzzing!

we are now fighting for our 2nd wind its like a race and you hit the wall yes we are still winning but also in the last 3 games we could have draw all 3 and still unbeaten but its coming and when we get over it and find our 2nd wind its over for the rest in the premier league the big push for getting a unassailable lead is on and then we can push in the champions league its so management with pep and ever single game is planed out to a tee and the only down side is the injury list and its all down the left side and city look unbalanced at the moment
big moment last night for city and sterling he is now looking like a £50 million signing we all forget he is still so young and yet it feels like he's been here years so happy for him and what a way to put 2 fingers up to the knockers and the media magic moment like that are never forgotten they live on in the memory

You can still defend, without resorting to that level of shite.
And if we look at the game realistically, are Sothampton playing like that because it's 'safe' ? Are they fuck. They know we will still create some chances & are hoping we miss them.
It's that simple. They are choosing to rely on us missing, rather than play a bit more open & rely on themselves scoring.
Utter fucking shite.

I swear some people watch a different game to me. Nathan Redmond was man marking Fernandinho for those last 15 minutes. He's a fucking striker! They had no intention of winning the game, the chances were set pieces.
And they were cheating, as well.
Vile c### got exactly what they deserved. Fuck all
They certainly conceded their normal chances to win by doing everything in their power to run the clock down or employ mass defence which as you say included a striker man marking one of our players.
They played for a draw and almost got one.
I still think that we should have scored more given the usual possession and accuracy stats but when the result just involves goals scored and those conceded perhaps time for us to concentrate on how to score because most teams don´t fancy competing at football with us so hopefully we regain our clinical scoring mentality quickly.

We need all our best ball players and retainers against the rags as we don't need to press the game, they need the win. We just need to keep possession and pass them to death and try to stop them gaining corners and free kicks where they can lump it in the box.
Spot on Paul
If we keep possession and make no silly mistakes, we will be able to create a few clear cut chances of our own.

Yes I know what you mean about tv saves. He annoyed me last night as I have seen him concede a few shockers lately.
The set pieces are a worry and especially against the rags, we are a small team in general that is the problem.
We need to tighten up on corners. They really should have scored twice last night and a free header in the second half too. This will be the rags only game plan.
Add this to the soft goal at Huddersfield.
Height is a problem but we have to find a solution. Two corners were needlessly given away by Otamendi last night when we could have dealt with the situation better in the first place. Not blaming him entirely but they were both very preventable and very nearly led to goals.

The last 2 games both teams have literally defended their boxes and for large periods of the games played with 2 banks of 5.
I don't think we have been particularly poor, we have had a run of games and a combination of fatigue and playing against parked buses has seen us lose some of the spark.

Southampton are traditionally are footballing team with a more than decent squad.
Why the fuck they resorted to what they did last night is beyond me.

I agree, prior to the game I had no opinion on Southampton, by 15 minutes in I wanted them humiliated for their time wasting and play acting.

I'm not sure what happened defensively last night. Kompany was shite which meant Ota reverted back to that rash bastard we sometimes see. I thought he was excellent with the ball, but poor without it.
Generally we have defended set peices well but Southampton are a tall team and we looked really shaky.

Without a doubt we are now the biggest scalp and any team now wants to become the fist to beat us ... under any circumstances.Unfortunately most Managers want to do it by hook or crook.The last 2 games both teams have literally defended their boxes and for large periods of the games played with 2 banks of 5.

Thought the passing was awful and lazy last night some players look short of fitness and some look in need of a rest Walker, dinho,jesus,delph,kdb all need rest and gudongan,aguero,Bernardo need to sharpen up. Can't argue we wasn't value for the 3 points even if we was not at our best.

I guess because they were dicked at Liverpool but it's still no excuse for the time wasting. We were vulnerable at the back and they could have exploited it last night with more intent. They chose not to even try.

Absolutely mate.
I'm more angry than normal because Southampton didn't need to play that way. They have quality players and imo should have approached the game differently.

Charlie Austen two great goals at the weekend, last night, dumped out, Shane Long up front (or midfield) so he can run round without the ball & they can boot it & he can run after it or head it for a throw in.
Pathetic.

It was and annoying too. I was looking round last night at 50,000 plus people freezing their nuts off who have paid good money to watch this, to then watch that level of time wasting affecting the game. They need to clamp down on this because it could ruin the game if teams keep doing it. 4 points for an away win might encourage a bit more adventure.

We were certainly vulnerable. Kompany was really really poor. It created an unease we haven't seen this season. He was done one on one twice, gave the ball away on a number of occasions and you can see his pace is suffering, he was dropping out of the line consistently.

There were people watching that, around the world.
The way some in the media talk, it's like Southampton were a bunch of starving kids fighting off a family of bears.
They are 'elite' sportsmen earning fucking millions for providing 'entertainment'.
