Southampton (H) | PL | Post-Match Thread

I think it was routine, just poor finishing from Erling kept the score down (finished his hardest chance!).

Some ok performances, Savinho continues to be bright, but I really think that was a routine 3-0 if Haaland puts a couple of easy ones away.

We need another striker to bring on from the bench and add some impetus in games like this.

Or better still, play two up front and have more movement in the box.

Something we should seriously look at in January and I see that Delap scored again today.

Played every other team that plays us. Southampton will come out and play they said, like f..k they did. Camped out in their area then kick and hope. Well done reg nearly worked. Southampton foul? Play on you have the ball even if it was on the edge of the area, City foul a free kick and allow them to launch the ball.

A tough old game. Three in 6 days that we had to win all of them.

Haaland looked bolloxed at the end.
Should have made it two, as well.

Said weeks ago selling alverez and not getting someone else in will more than likely come to bite us on the arse at some point

Not a sole in our current squad can step into that position and keep things ticking along with goals

Well that was a hard watch!! Main thing 3 points in the bag, top of the league.

Has somebody pointed out 52 games unbeaten at home - anyway didn't altogether enjoy that - particularly last 20 minutes. Come back Jack quick.

Wasn't shite at all, just poor finishing, if the best striker in the world had his shooting boots on it would've been a thrashing.

Southampton were pathetic, 10 men inside their box and wasting time with 10 minutes to go at 1-0 down, hopefully they go down again because no one wants to see that shite.

That, detective is the correct answer.

No strikers of any note is going to sit and watch from the bench , we couldnt keep jules happy and he was a great young player, thor is the number one and we can revert to false nine at any time

That would look better if Haaland finished mote but cant be upset with the team when they win.

The low blocks are not easy, no other team faces it as much as we do.
