Southampton (A) | Post Match Thread

Just seen on iplayer. We had a free kick for offside and Steffen placed the ball at 70.02. He kicked the ball at 70.17 at which point Dean blew the whistle and booked him. Compare this with Forster who picked up a loose ball from a Gundo header on 10.32 and didn't release the ball until 10.50. Bear in mind that keepers can only hold it for six seconds
Thought it happened extremely quickly. We definitely get officiated to a different standard than everybody else in the league. Or rather, refs seem to let home crowds ref the game for them when we play them.
 
We were a bit sloppy, but they press really well. Ralph has got a decent side/system going. They press hard fast and in numbers it takes a couple of one touch quick passes to get round it from out the back. A deeper mid drop from Gundo and/or Kev would have helped a bit more. Job done though, couple of quality finishes to see it out.
 
Worrying that the general form of our players is still pretty poor. We were sluggish and sloppy yet again. We need to snap out of it sharpish. The international break might help...or might make it worse, we shall see. There haven't been many spells under Pep where we've played so poorly for such a long time. Results have generally been okay still, but it's just not clicking at the moment.
 
How long did Steffen have the ball before Dean booked him? I swear it felt like 20 seconds. Even the Sky Sports Score Centre app has the ball going out for a goal kick and the yellow card happening, typed up and committed to the site within the same minute.
The irony of Dean booking Steffen for time wasting and then only playing 2 minutes of added on time
 
Great win, especially after the draw there earlier in the season. Their fans always have been nob heads and cluless twats. Their attendances in League 1 and the chanmpionship were pitiful.

Hope that obese bearded ginger in the shorts remembered to eat the sandwiches his mummy and put in his ruck sack, might help fill the gap after he shit himself outside the ground, cocky routund gobshite.

True ,we are the only team to have players booked for taking a quick free kick , think it was KDB both times
