Southampton (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Big erl is back and we play fucking absolutely shite. Why drop Marmoush. Sick of this slow football. At least Doku injected some pace. We are miles off again.
 
Which is why we bought 4 players in January. Where the fuck are they ??

Reis, not convinced he's a first team signing.
Khusanov, shouldn't need him at the moment, Dias and Gvardiol was working at centre back.
Nico, not sure but if Bernardo played centrally he wouldn't be needed right now.

Marmoush, unacceptable that he only got 5 mins.
 
We had 72% of the ball, 26 shots, and about 80-100 touches in the Southampton area. If the lads can't score with those stats then that's not on Pep.

We could have 100% of the ball but if the shots created are little better than us trying to pass it to the keeper because we attack so slowly they mean sod all. If you think that was good football on show fair enough but hell our standards have slipped. We are the most boring team in the league to watch.
 
How the Fook has the board & the sheik let this club go so stale! It’s madness what we have been doing in transfers over last few seasons.

Zero Fookin planning is why we are in this mess. I really don’t see how we can change it that much by next season. Too much needs changing with everybody knowing our manager is going in 12 months too!

New start & clear out needed asap
 
that game shows exactly how big our rebuild is and that simply the likes of MGW and various others mentioned will only cement us in a battle for top 6...

Our central midfield has zero creativity in it ...there is nothing. There are also no goals in that midfield either

Our wingers wide players dont create besides Doku and certainly never look like scoring.

Fail to address the creativity hole we have and we are in for a long season next season again....we are no where near the Scousers at present.

McAtee can be sold...he has been given quite a few chances now...I thought he had serious potential but he doesnt have attitude or fight to get to the very top.
KDB going - people saying over the last few weeks that it was mistake to let him go - proved very very wrong....
Sav - chance to do something when he came on...does very little again.

Foden - no point in playing him wide - he plays central or not at all...again drop KDB if you have to as he is done.
 
Why the hell would you change the team that won consecutive matches!
this is one Pep full stop. Why would you play players that don’t work for you anymore.

Is Wenger arc of Pep is infuriating. Leave the game before the game leaves you man
One fucking season and you're comparing him to Wenger.

With fans like you, who needs rivals?

Tosser.
 
Pep ruined that game.

Set them up so poorly, first half was a waste of time.

Some players of courae did themselves no favours, but mainly on Pep for the selection and setup, so he takes the blame.
 
Thread full of entitled clowns on here as usual.

Sure the boys may have had one eye on next week but still it’s always good to get a point and a clean sheet away from home which maintains our lengthy unbeaten run and leaves us well placed to finish top 5

Cup final to look forward to next week, all is well in the world
 
That team is arguably - and statistically - one of the worst sides in Premier League history and we’ve just scabbed our way to a 0-0 draw against them.

Laughable, really.
 
Very concerning and borderline embarassing. We thought we just had to turn up and win the game. Alarming lack of professionalism.

You don't fuck around with a winning team. No reason to rest players at this stage. The changes made no sense. Neither Lewis or Akanji offer anything much going forward. We missed the threat of O'Reilly and Nunes in those positions. Without Doku down the left we were completely toothless in the first half.

Don't know what Nico & Khusanov have done wrong to not even be getting a sniff.

Haaland should not start the cup final.

I'm starting to fear Foden could be another Dele Alli. Hope he proves otherwise but he is literally offering nothing. There is very little sign of him turning the corner. He needs the summer off.

Another boring performance, and sadly we’re still getting the CL spot—despite this team not deserving a damn thing after this season. Honestly, at this point I’m fully in favor of missing out on the CL if that’s what it takes for this club to finally wake up and rebuild from scratch.
 
That's not on Pep today. Not for me. The system worked perfectly, the lads just couldn't get it done.

He should maybe have put Marmoush on earlier, but otherwise the usually reliable old guard let him down.

Marmoush defo should have come on sooner.
