Pep and kdb have summed it up perfectly, we weren't good enough in the middle part of the game. We will need to snap out of this against lower sides. Stones, kdb and walker our best. Another open goal miss for raz, great support again

Poor first half , not at the races , got a break with the penalty and Adams missing a sitter , the result flattered us which was the opposite of what we got at Palace where we actually played better.
Pep isnt daft , a better team would have slaughtered us in the first half , some players just were'nt at it and Pep will identify them and give them a kick up the backside.
If you had told me we would win that game 4-1 at half time i would have had you sent to the lunatic asylum , a pleasantly surprising result in the end.

One of our shittiest performance ever ...
We can't beat Atletico without Dias and Walker

Ever? Lol. You must be a young un or a newbie then. After a 4-1 win I've very little to worry about, job done.

 

[Dave El Magico]

Much better in the 2nd half and Foden/Mahrez made us more threatening going forward. It was never going to be easy and it was Southamptons only chance of doing anything this season. Job done, learn from the mistakes and move on.

How did Mahrez manage to miss by 5 yards when he was only 5 yards from goal? Even worse than Raheem.

Cheer up, we won.

Might have something to do with putting the ball in the net four times in a clinical fashion.

Shame we weren't clinical in the first half. 4 great chances - 1 goal.

You weren’t at the infamous Friday night defeat to Bury then?

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Great result and finished the game really well, which should be good for our confidence.

We usually play the same whether we are winning, losing or drawing - with confidence and assuredness.

Today we looked a wee bit unsure which has followed the last couple of games in terms of slack passing, loss of possession and just more vulnerable than we usually do.

Once we got it back to 2-1 and especially after the third went in you could see the weight lift off the shoulders, absolutely delightful 10 or 15 minutes at the end.

Obviously we deserved the win. But the result flattered us. We often walked a tight rope (if that’s the right expression).

Our fans were fantastic. Great to hear “our songs” that unfortunately wasn’t picked up by the commentators. Turning the mouse down wouldn’t have mattered.
