Southampton (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

[Millennium]

Pep's team selection and gameplay was a disaster plan. Against the worst team this season, we couldn't win!!!

 

[colorado blue]

saints defended well but that wasn’t good enough. Why change the formation that’s been winning. Doku was very good but final product not good enough.

 

[Paul1970]

Give over mate. Worst team in premier league history? They've just taken a point off the 4 in a row champions

They’ve taken a point of a shadow of 4 in a row .

 

[TinFoilHat]

To be fair after the last two games the woodwork stopped a win.

 

[KS55]

Almost disastrous. Dominate the game but total lack of creative nous means we could not score in a month of Sundays.
Odd starting XI by Pep, but it is the cup final next week. Why was Marmoush on the bench almost until the end?
Effing awful.

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Knew after 10 mins it was going to be one of them days. Peps fucked up there I'm afraid. Players thinking all they need to do is turn up and take the points. And Southampton can fuck right off producing that when they've been absolute dog shit all season.

 

[baggy]

What the fuck is happening with our new signings?

 

[Blu1]

Top 5

Agree but city should not be aiming for top 5. Target should be top 4 minimum

Give over mate. Worst team in premier league history? They've just taken a point off the 4 in a row champions

It was hyperbole. Don't take offence!

 

[01282]

Embarrassing.
82 goals conceded, 2 clean sheets in 47 games and we give them a point,
Pep fucked up yet again with his starting 11, far too slow with subs, really now questioning if throwng money at new players will benefit us if he persists with his outdated slow sideway tactics.
Please sack our fucking useless set piece coach tonight, employing him sums up all that is wrong with us.
More than half that teams needs replacing or its not even top 8 ne t season.

We’ll be in the market for more centre backs in the summer to go with the 8 we already have.

 

[N1985]

I'd be fully open to selling Phil whilst he's still worth a few quid, same with Erling and Sav. Absolutely terrible that, and fucking hell Pep, what the fuck are you playing at?

 

[Bluewonder]

OK one which is exciting to watch like we used to be

Cos all his previous teams have been dull as dishwater, haven't they.

 

[grifter]

Why does Pep feel the need to fuck with a winning formula. Back four should’ve been left as it was until the seasons end. Lewis inverting gives us no width - we wasted 80 mins persisting with that shit. Criminal to not start Marmoush as well.

An extremely frustrating result against a bobbins team!

 

[mancityscot]

Unacceptable display today. Completely on Pep with the shocking lineup. Both Foden starting and Haaland over Marmoush were really poor decisions. Huge fight on our hands for CL now.

 

[meeesh]

Sums our season up that result, piss poor, man of match -Marmoush as he nearly won it us

 

[Bald fraud]

This side needs £600m spent on it.

Get rid of those old guard players.

GASH

Pep won’t spend it he loves the old fogies!

 

[Alexia_Ko]

who’s to say the fault doesn’t lie with Pep the way our season’s been? Picked his favourites and couldn’t beat the worst team in the league as a result. We gave them a clean sheet. I don’t care Haaland has just come back from injury, terrible performance along with KDB who couldn’t have been less bothered

 

[Keeper!]

Savinhi, send him back to Gerona, a winger who can't beat a player

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

26 shots to 2

Most of them came in the last ten minutes after changes.

Only the manager knows what that selection was all about.

 

[chesterbells]

So what’s the maths now? Do we need 2 wins to guarantee top 5?
