Match Day Thread Manchester United vs Southampton EFL CUP Final Sunday 26/02/2017 Kick-Off 4:30PM

Puel training too. He looks hilarious!

 

He has his work cut out lifting them after Sunday.

 

Indeed they do, but you only get the 90 minutes for a limited few days. Then they leave highlights only for the archive. I suspect they might make a Blue-Ray or DVD of this one. I have a [cough] method of streaming from the Saints website where I somehow end up with a permanent Hi-Res copy.

So the fall back is Footballorgin or FullMatchesandShows. They keep the full matches [if they do them] for a bit longer.

 

And Steven Davis. Tbf, it was a **** day today. Drizzle, drizzle, drizzle. Awful. Either rain properly and get it over or stop with the drizzle.

Boufal [photo 3/26] looks straight into camera. "You lookin' at me.? Eh.? Are you lookin' at me.?"

 

Gabby looks unconcerned, but I suppose if you sleep under viaducts you get used to the rain.

 

I watched quite a bit of the 90 minutes again last night [about the 3rd or 4th time now] and I have to say that Prowsey had a genuinely excellent game. His free-kicks, corners and crosses were superb, and he was making himself available t every opportunity. Plus, when it came to making decisions in open play, he more often than not made an excellent one. I think Puel has got him to make some pretty big strides this season. I notice that, according to Gary Neville, He and Nathan Redmond have been very close to the full England team. Considering the improvement both have made of late, I think they've got an awful lot closer this season.

Trivia: And Neville calls him Prowsey.

 

Probably more like Prows-eh.

 

Agreed, Prowsey has really improved. I thought he was excellent against Liverpool away as well.

 

And the England manager thinks highly of him....may get a chance in a friendly soon.

 

BTW, did everyone hear what Mourinho had to say about Saints.? Very frank and positive. Worth looking at a post match interview if you haven't seen one.

 

Usually the mark of approval needed just before the Summer when they try anr sell him to liverpool...

When is the Watford thread going up?

I would love to do it but I'm in a hotel at Heathrow getting ready for my flight with Mrs No7 to see daughter No7 (we'll only one really) and Grandson in Atlanta [emoji16]

I get to watch it over breakfast on Saturday....probably a nice Bloody Mary and eggs benedict [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

 

I've been asking to no avail on 'Saints stuff'

 

The sooner the better!

As momentous an occasion it was, we must look forwards now. That starts with 3 points this weekend!

 

I went to watch a game of football not to try and win an Oscar for best low budget movie FFS. The woman sat beside me (no not the very lovely Mrs Godders the otherside) spent the whole game recording stuff on her phone and at no time watched the game. I am convinced some people are insecure in the real world and can only feel safe if they see reality through a ****ing screen.

 

having trouble finding full replay for the second half, help please

 

Didn't think there was any need for that. I watched the whole game. I took some photos and some video clips before and after the game and they are automatically made into a short movie on the phone app. Just thought it was quite poignant and those who were there may like it. Sorry to have caused such offence.
