    When Wigan fluffed their lines so often I dropped any doubt we would win it. Good game. Well done the Referee, he gave it every chance to flow on an awful surface.

    Cant believe we paid almost £20million for him. Not sure what we saw in him to pay that much.. Today was his worse game

    I am now waiting for people to say that they disagree :)

    Pierre and Cedric up front against West Ham. Carillo at right back? Gabby defensive midfield. Crazy game.

    I wouldn’t call Gabbiadini “in form” though. The tactics... well you may have a point. But again, I will point you to Austin.

    That Cedric goal was the first quick counter attack since before Puel.

    I honestly can’t remember the last time we flooded forward like that

    Really entertaining game. I said to myself in the first half that we'd score in the second on our fans' end and then that the penalty would be saved/missed. Mystic Helen, me... <diva>

    I have not seen the game but well done SFC for keeping disciplined when under pressure, and for believing in themselves. A great weekend for all the Solent área´s teams, How often can we congratulate all three for getting wins? Keep it up!

    A striker scoring a goal is what they get paid to do. Then getting dropped the next game is weird. He did the same to Prowse and Hojberg, there is a pattern

    Just listening to how we took three of their players out of the game for the first, by virtually standing on their toes and preventing them from attacking the ball.
    Straight out of the Stoke City set piece manual.
    I hope he has brought the defensive version as well.

    Difference between an organised manager and a **** one. Subs worked, team looked up for it second half, and a boost in confidence all round.
    Fair play to Sparky, whatever he said at half time worked.

    I don't even know what to think of him. He just looks so unsure and lost on the field against Wigan tonight. At least Gabbi has a been of assurance about him but Carillo just seemed to always be in the wrong place at every opportunity and just constantly got in the way. I reckon Gabbi partnered up with Long or Austin would be good. Carillo and Gabbi just look far too similar in terms of their playing role and so far Gabbi is proving to be much better.
