Phillips looks completely uninterested

Nah. He's just been found out. He's nowhere near good enough to be around our squad.

If I was a Saints fan, I'd be livid that they don't put the same effort into their league games.

don’t think it’s that so much as our blatant lack of effort tbh

In fairness, they play better sides in other games

Passing is atrocious, not playing well at all it’s very frustrating.

 

[Blu1]

All I ask is no Fookin subs pep. Leave all of these on to sort it.

Feel sorry for the 3000 city fans down there

 

[Silvas Left Peg]

Serious question... has phillips or cancelo played a forward pass yet?

 

[Mancity1980]

I was concerned with this game before with its closeness to the Derby and United having an easier fixture with a longer rest until the game. Clearly Pep was worried about this and it has resulted quite frankly in a disastrous start to this game. Southampton are at home and are clearly up for this game and fair dos to them. Now Pep has a big problem, does he persist with this lineup and thus quite likely go out of the tournament? Or does he bring on the big guns to chase the game and risk impacting our performance on Saturday?

 

[jaiguruKun]

I wouldn't bother bringing the big guns if we're still two down, not worth the risk. Better to write this one off possibly.

Grealish hit a defenders legs there?
