Get through them all without losing any and its an actual victory going into October
I am actually don't think it was a lack of effort I just feel like we were disjointed, there was no one, other than Grealish with any ideas of what to do with the ball. Southampton harried us and a couple of players in particular couldn't cope with that. I also thought Gundogan looked a little upset coming off the pitch.It wasn’t the lack of goals that pissed me off today, it was the lack of effort.
We honestly didn’t really try today, maybe the last 3 or 4 minutes.
Conversely, Rodri struggled midweek. A lot of Leipzig’s attacks bypassed him in midfield because his lack of pace allowed them opportunities, and we didn’t settle down in midfield until he went off and Fernandinho came on.
Today Fernandinho had a shocker.

He was wank today. Maybe he is ok when we play ok.Jesus has been one of our best players up to now..
The post was far too sensible for post match ;)no one is denying that but History (which is what that is) means absolutely nothing with the game today or any game int he future.....despite what the rags and scousers wll try to make people believe....its all about he moment and today we were poor to a man (and I wouldnt blame pep) ...the players were poor today.
Southampton's tactics worked perfectlyJust back at the hotel. A pretty inept performance. Sterling, Gundo and Jesus offered precious little. As for Fernandinho, christ. He was terrible. I think the extra year may well prove to be an (understandably) sentimental mistake.
