He's a great option from the bench when the game gets stretched or starting at places like Anfield and the Etihad, our squad would miss him when he's gone.
We loook so much better in the way we play, and today shows Austin's ommison that he is no longer needed.
Bednarek was fantastic today. Another goal saving block and now lofted through balls as part of his game
Palace, Burnley and Cardiff our next three...could make relegation a distant memory in short order. Rather staggering how quickly Hasenhuttl has turned things around.
Good drink and chat with Laces at the Guide Dog, gentle stroll to St Mary’s and then 2 great goals ...... When we up 2-0 up, I did think of Laces who had said he’d be very worried if we went up by that score unless it was in the 90th minute. The moment that ball pinged around our box, I knew it was going to go in ..... how do we manage it? Pity we lost Matt Targett early - thought he looked good before injury. We need Bertie back at LB to steady us, but Bednarek, Stephens and (yes, I’ll say it) even Vestergaard looked good. Pierre was immense and JWP back to his best. Onwards and upwards ..... beat the teams around us and we’ll be comfortable in mid-table and ready to push on next season.
So the nipper got to see his first Saints win! Let's hope it's a habit! COYR. Another great performance. Romeu is a machine, and great to see the goals at our end!
