Premier League Games 15/16/17/19 May '22

[BringBackSwales]

Forget that, if Southern are shite Wolves are only marginally better at the moment, 5-0 dippers at least.

Goal difference irrelevant Paul, unless dippers draw and we lose by 7 or 8

 

[Double R]

So it is all down to us to win our final game, which is the way it always was and should be. On our own terms.
If we lose the title it will be because we fail to beat Villa and not because Southampton are shit, or Mahrez missed a pen, or Sterling's goal against Liverpool was offside or any other shite.
But we will beat Villa, we are too good, professional and experienced not too.

 

[super_city_si]

Based on that, if Hasenhutl is still there next season they're going down. completely lost the players and fans

 

[chesterbells]

Why not? Southampton did.

Because a) I honestly don’t think Gerrard has the relationship with Klopp that the Soton manager does and b) cos I don’t think Gerrard is already on the verge of being sacked and has others have commented, has lost the dressing room.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Keeper change though

He is actually one of the worst keepers I've ever seen. He makes Steffan look like Pirlo with the ball at his feet.

 

[cookster]

That was a strong Southampton line up to be fair to them. Salisu, Walker-Peters, Stephens,Ward-Prowse and Broja have featured against us at St. Marys. Romeu and Armstrong were the only missing ones but they were on the bench

Bednarek & Stuart Armstrong also usually start.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Sorry, but they are seriously shit! ;)

Your right , they were abysmal

 

[jim_tolmies_perm]

We just need to win on Sunday or if they draw we can draw. I was just hoping goal difference wouldn't get hammered tonight. Southampton are utterly spineless. Just got to do our job on Sunday and not completely fuck it up. If we do it's all down to ourselves!

We can lose and they draw

 

[hertsblue]

That Broja put in one of the laziest performances I've ever seen. ****.

Yep but they had no midfield, Tella and Diallo were worse than abysmal and Ward Prowse had a shocker also. They only started putting crosses in around 89 minutes, long after the took him off.
None of the Southampton players looked like they had played the game before, Keeper was the worse i have ever seen, Defenders kept mis kicking the ball and not putting in any attempt to tackle or stop crosses and none of them could pass or show any technical ability tonight

 

[FightLikeAGirl]

Because one team is fighting for Europa League football (on the day they said goodbye their club captain) and the other has been on the beach since March.

It wasn't just the Southampton players who weren't up for it tonight; the fans were silent all game as well. They're a club that's thoroughly done with this season - I'm slightly grateful that Liverpool only clawed one goal back as opposed to the 4-0 drubbing I was expecting them to dole out.

Hassenhutl is clearly off in the summer, the fans and players have lost patience with him. I think he probably thought that chucking a bunch of second-stringers out might catch Liverpool off-guard and might give said second-stringers a chance to prove themselves. Turns out it didn't.

Liverpool fans could just as easily point at us beating Brighton 3-0 the other week and ask why they just rolled over for us when they nicked a point at Anfield. Leicester beat them 1-0 at the King Power pretty soon after we won there. They've dropped 4 points against Chelsea while we've taken maximum points.

That's how football works.

This. West Ham actually had something to play for, they're fighting to get into Europe. And I'd say they're better than Southampton (not to mention that yes, it's Mark Noble's last game so no doubt they were all gee'd up because of it).

True but I'm just pointing out the hope Wolves will somehow get something out of the game is pointless.

 

[coolcity]

6 fouls each, 2 cards Southampton, Dippers 0 again despite making at least 2 card worthy fouls. Amazing how few cards they get

And how few penalties they concede.

 

[East Level 2]

Not easy winning at Saints; they are as high as 15th FFS.
Sorry, just remembering comments after we failed to beat them. Twice.

 

[RayCTID]

Bednarek & Stuart Armstrong also usually start.

Hassenhutl shuffled the pack and had to do something different as they hadn't won since beating Arsenal at home

If we don’t beat them, then lets be honest, we don’t deserve it.
Much rather be in our position than Liverpool’s.

Now City. Just do your jobs on Sunday.

And for all Liverpool's "dominance" only came away with two goals.

 

[Metalartin]

I'm not buying into this throwing the game malarkey. If they did it would have finished 3 or 4 to 1.
Hassenhutl is the one that set them up for an uphill task from the dressing room. Resting his best players after 10 days off is smacked arse shithousery. It's like he knows he's getting fucked off and the crowd have been booing him recently, so he's stabbed them in the back by playing a very weakened team.

Blame Hussenhatl primarily but the players should also shoulder a proportion of the blame. The desire to play a football match should be instilled in you. You don't need a manager for that. They were second best all night to every first and second ball.

Yeah, I was pondering that myself. I said in my last comment, it's ok to be disappointed with it because Liverpool didn't even have to be great. At the same time, if they'd have had a go and Liverpool make subs late and turn the game on it's head, we'd probably be just as disappointed. They should be beating Southampton on their current form anyway(everything pointed to Liverpool strolling through them).

Not sure how Klopp can make out that was an amazing performance though, they didn't need to be good. No way were they anywhere near as good as when City last played them. I can hear him talking bollocks now trying to say Liverpool wouldn't let them press(you can't make players jog in the first half).

The pack he shuffled was full of Jokers.

 

[madloaf]

Was always on the cards. Sunday is gonna be something.

 

[HypnoticBlue]

And how few penalties they concede.

About time our owners got serious with PIGMOL and got it all sorted, they have enough money to investigate it and bring em down, and bust the PL flush.
