Match Thread | Southampton vs. Man City (10/05/25)

And it's still 0-0 against the worst team in the PL.

They've been battered by every other team.

Watch their games back if you want and see how deep they sit.

After watching that first half Gibbs White walks into our midfield.

After that 1st half David White walks into our midfield

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

I don't even know what function/position he is in the team, it's like he's just making up the numbers.

I think he's the new Zinchenko, a blunt swiss army knife

 

[journolud]

Not great but we’ll come out and play with a higher tempo second half, score quickly and go on to win comfortably

 

[The Norfolk Blue]

I think I may have fainted and just come round - I don't recall anything of that 1st half

Their farcical attempt at an own goal raised a smirk from the slumber.

 

[jrb]

It was 0-0 against Liverpool at half time at Anfield.

And look what happened in the 2nd half.

Let's not make excuses mate, this is shit.

We should be battering Southampton.

 

[King Jay]

Game Shows why Bernardo and McAtee have to leave. Zero threat. Even when Bernardo can shoot or pass a ball through the defense he won’t do it. McAtee keeps running away from the ball. Should be happy if the club gets 30M out of him. Foden doesn’t offer anything and needs to stay on the bench until CWC or even the next season. Can’t tell me someone like O’Reilly or Savinho/ Doku wouldn’t play far better than their counter parts at their respective position on the field. Pep so stubborn he always has to include certain players since he has his favorites

 

[Stato]

Doku on

 

[kippaxchris]

Oh and then when he is injured and no one scores you are one of those will say that we are roof dependent on him

We are too dependent on him, we play absolutely crap football & still he scores in those games. If we tried to play with some width it wouldn't be a problem with or without Haaland. Peps refusal to play with width means we should revolve our game around Haaland aka give him the ball & hope he scores because we play awful football.

After watching that first half Gibbs White walks into our midfield.

If he's walking he fits in perfectly.

 

[skillman]

Is Wirtz on the bench?

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

I’m watching on some yank tv stream through my IPTV and fuck me this is frying my brain.

The adverts are all mental intense shouty dramatic voiceovers and migraine inducing music, half of which are trying to flog drugs.

It’s no wonder America is such a fucked up place.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Wouldn't mind seeing Doku and Nunes on soon, for Lewis and McAtee.

 

[tommybooth]

Doku on.

 

[skybluepower]

After watching that first half Gibbs White walks into our midfield.

That says more about the problem we are in than how good Gibbs White is.

We don't even have a top 150 midfielder from the TOP 5 leagues this season, and that's a fact. The closest to that is KDB, who is entering his 35th year.

 

[Phoenix900000]

KDB looks very inconsistent. I wouldn't mind if he got the winner though :)

 

[Don Karleone]

Doku, thank fuck.

 

[Blueknows]

Can anyone explain why Gonzalez keeps being left out ?

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

And look what happened in the 2nd half.

Let's not make excuses mate, this is shit.

We should be battering Southampton.

Well shall we give it the second half then?

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Great to see Doku coming out for the second half
