Southampton (A) - Carabao Cup | Post Match Thread

[Bald fraud]

We need a post West Brom type inquisition

We're shite

Get ferna on a plane sharpish!

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Our cocker spaniel has more movement and ball control than Phillips

I thought it was a terrible buy in the first place

Billion pound squad reduced to Kev dropping deep to get on the ball and spamming crosses.

Joke

Teams have worked out how to stop us utilising the overlap/underlap on the wing.

We don’t seem to have any other plan to score so just needlessly recycle the ball hoping for a mistake.

Come on mate, that's repugnant..

 

[Blueknows]

What's the betting Pep post match "we played so so good , I'm so happy more than you believe "

 

[eyalluvitt]

Prior to this weekend's derby, Pep and our lads have provided a great boost in morale and confidence...




...to the rags.

Well done, Pep. Well done, lads.

The deluded Rags already fancied it, but then they did earlier in the season at the Etihad

Worst performance as i can remember.
They had more pace, energy and desire than us.

Think this team is coming to the end of its cycle and has been sussed out and our players are getting older.
The defence has gone from rock solid to being an injury prone, keystone cop defending mess. Why for a few seasons do we have constant injuries to our CB’s. 2 full backs are needed as Gomez etc is woefully short of the quality needed and Cancello is just torrid atm, cannot defend, out of position and gives the ball away far too often.

midfield without Rodri is awful, no pace or strength. Tonight was pathetic, Phillips will never be good enough for us. We need a box to box player with pace.

You have to wonder what Pep and the so called coaches are doing. New set piece coach, seen zero improvement and 2 foul throws tonight, thats inexcusable.
Our fitness coaches are not working as we look knackered all the time.
Does Pep need a new assistant manager who questions and pushes him.

its not a blip anymore, Brentford, Everton, Tonight etc
5 away goals inc 3 in 1 game at Leeds in our last 6 away games.

Something is not right this season

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

The keeper made a save but Alvarez deflected onto the defender, hardly a shot. Really bad night for everyone lets hope it wakes them up.

Okey dokey. Blind as a bat these days.

 

[RobinHood]

Cancelo and Gomez both taking foul thrown ins, sums both up.

Utter dogshit.

Pep seems to have strangled the spontaneity out of this team?

We seem to care more about what the opponent can do than we can?

Buy a proper left back this window or end up with nothing this season.

£200m on Grealish, Phillips, Ake and Akanji.

These are not top shelf players.

I think Ake's a good player.

What the fuck are we playing at. We have got enough cover at centre back to rest 2 for the weekend and play 2 tonight but he goes and sticks walker at cb. Did he not learn from Chelsea in the league
Again are worst performances under pep come when he fucks about with players in un natural positions but he keeps doing it time and time again

Like he wants to prove it can work
Well walker at centre back obviously doesn’t
He has had to can it twice at half time it’s been that bad
