Southampton (H) Post Match Thread

That's what I'm talking about! Be afraid rags, be very afraid!

 

[Delphinho]

Ragcafe`s a funny place. The only reason we managed to score 6 today, is because some of our income derives from oil. I`m sure you could throw 800m+ at Moaninho and it would still look like they play another sport

We’re shit, it’s definitely their year

Funny, I never heard the Raggie's complaining when they were breaking the transfer/wages record season on season.

Other than KDB,and maybe Delph,thats our best starting 11 for me.

I would hate to be Pep having to drop Silva when KDB gets back. Been fantastic this season.

Sterling demonstrated again today that he is one of our very best players and whatever contract he’s agreed is worth every penny.

I guess some BlueMooners feel the need to add criticisms to their match "reports" tp avoid being accused of being "Happy Clappers" wearing Sky Blue spectacles.

We are (joint) top of the PL, have just won 6-1 and as far as I am concerned, that will more than do for me.

It is a team game... we win as a team...

We are watching a brilliant team.

I am so, so happy with ALL our players.

I thought Jo was ****, personally, but otherwise I agree.

The time he had the ball at midfield with two Soton players on him, with Laporte completely alone near our box screaming for the pass back to easily retain possession, and instead he tried to nutmeg one of their players to run into midfield, with the Soton player easily winning the ball and then them running with superior numbers at our goal summed that up for me.

I have no idea what he is thinking in those moments. It’s seem nothing but “I want to be in the ‘City Tricks and Skills’ compilation videos on YouTube this month”.

Not sure what it's like in England, but that seems to be the default mode for kids over here in the States - one nutmeg every 20 attempts is an acceptable ratio for them and their mates. It's just awful playing with people like that. I trust Pep will either change Mendy's mentality or get rid of him in the next year or so.

Pessimistic folk will always concentrate on negatives,it comes natural to their way of thinking,i dont think its a case of making extra effort to find them.

Plus,its discussion,and thats,generally,a good thing.

6-1 a greats result and another good performance

But

Considering Pep isn't happy with parts of the performance and we did switch off at 3-0 there was obviously some room for critiscism of our concemtration when on top.

RAWK is no better were the 6 goals came courtesy of a barbaric human rights offence committed by our owner apparently.

Their salty fucking tears taste delicious.

 

[NorCalBlue]

I think he is a supremely gifted footballer, and a top bloke, but his maturity/decision-making on the pitch still leaves a lot to be desired.

Shouldn't this be on the Balotelli thread?

PEP: We defended well - sometimes we can improve but that’s good. I like that feeling. We scored six, top of the table, we fight well but we have to improve to be more stable. In the UCL if you concede in those situations you are out because the level is high.

What do you mean, "were"?

 

[Armaan]

The dippers think they’re in a title race with us, bless them. We will retain it and cement ourselves as the greatest premier league side ever. Long live Pep.

A bit different situation between Ben and Mario. ;-)

Fair one.
Forgot about their current "superstars".
