Saints (A) Post Match Thread

Mental that Pep didn’t bring Dinho on, why wouldn’t you want fresh legs in the middle at the end?

I’m developing two working theories. He either gets so engrossed in the game, micromanaging every little thing that he just zoned out, loses track of time and the fact he can make subs.

Or he’s pissed off with the 5 subs rule and has taken the petulant 3 year old approach of refusing to use any subs because he can’t have all the subs.

Currently can’t come up with anything more believable.

Second half was total control. I think they only had one shot.

Just shown the highlights on Prime and they created nothing worthy of scoring a goal yet they deserved something.

YCNMIU

Goals against we are joint best in the league, goals scored we have 11 teams who have scored more. Newcastle have only scored three less, bloody Newcastle.

What has gone wrong with our creativity and finishing?

I think they changed the rule recently and say if it hits the arm after a deflection and that arm is not above shoulder height then it's no pen.

I've no idea anymore but they usually find a way to screw us. The Soton players were shouting for it.

I actually enjoyed the game.. Was nice to see Southampton attack rather than just defend all game.
We need to take our chances though.. I watched it with no commentary as I can't be doing with the negativity from the wankers.
Popped into the match thread at half time and remembered why I usually avoid it.. Fuck me there is some negative fuckers on there.
Enjoy your evening lads and lasses

You don't have total control at 1 nil. Ask West Brom.

Happy with the win, the attack is still poor. The defence is on a big run.

Needed the 3 points. Wasteful again, but a hard team and another clean sheet.

They just showed the Southampton chances on Amazon. 2 good, 2 half. They didnt show the 2 free headers from Vestergaard. Plus they had a half shout for a pen.

Half decent shout for a pen? Now you're taking the piss.

Also just seen the highlights they didn't have anything 2nd half apart from a cross Ederson collected so stop talking out your arse.

One thing is guaranteed - if it involves us they will check it closely.
