    Cracking clearance from Hoedt.

    Not at the game today. Not watching on a stream, either.
    On the other hand, I am in Bali, so give or take a seismic rumble, not looking for too much sympathy.:)

    Come on, it was from such a close distance that it's great that he got anything on it

    Despite the fact all you've done is whine like a bitch for the duration of it?

    Yeah I'm a big a critic of Fraser as anyone on here but don't think you can blame him for that. Was impressed he stopped the first one tbh.





    Now if only he did that at Wembley :bandit:

    Unbearable Man U love in on the commentary. Not an awful half. We just don't have their weapons. Not sure what Redmond and Tadic are bringing to the game...

    Hoedt has to do better there, but other than that detail, it was a very good half from our part. We limited United to a few chances a are actually playing a bit faster in the build up, but they are just damn good defensively, you got to admit that.
    Don't know what's the point of Redmond really, I reckon Sam Mcqueen would be more effective than him. If only Pellegrino would come to idea to take off Redmond and bring Gabiadini

    Can we move Long onto the wing and get Gabbi on.

    From a media perspective, the one thing I can't stand about any Saints game involving ManU is that inevitably it is Saints that are the opposition and don't get talked about. One might as well turn off the sound.

    Don't think Hoedt has been at his best this half. Hard to say too much because it took a while to find a non-buffering stream. Was half-expecting a real beating today though so 0-1 isn't too bad.

    Long almost seems to be playing as a target man today, trying to hold the ball up rather than get in behind. not sure if thats the tactic or he has no belief we can actually get a ball in behind...

    I still believe the team would benefit from a proper targetman if this is how we are going to play.

    Really do need to take Redmond off - I don't mind if its Boufal or Gabbi who replaces him.

    seems easy to me. Bring VVD on so the defence don't get tired and concede 3 in the last 8 minutes. Bring Charlie and Gabbi on so we score 2. Simple.
