    Bad news for you is you still have to come to St Mary's. Not a happy hunting ground for you at the best of times. :)

    It might just be me but BBC have quickly pivoted away from the game to talk about the next ones. I guess it is always like that

    BT are creaming themselves over us. Sounds so weird.

    No Manure win to gush over. Life’s a bitch and then you die. MOTD will say Saints escaped with a lucky draw against European giant. Did they hell!

    Disappointed I can’t listen and it isn’t something that will be re-watchable. Hopefully motd give us some credit

    We seem to have become a decent football team.

    I was though particularly impressed by Pogba and chums impression of six year olds as they desperately wasted 3 of the last 5 mins in a "it's not fair ref" competition.

    Cream rises to the top. If you do six great threads in a row, are you a genuine football pundit?

    Turns out we're really good at gaining points from losing positions...

    2 games in a row where it's been really difficult to pick a MOTM. They all stood out. I though Stephens was superb coming on, not easy to come off the bench cold into a game like that. Fraser was superb in goal, Perraud excellent again. Romeu was a beast in the middle of the park, and Broja and Che gave the United defence a torrid time. I'm going to give it to KWP though - just. Thought he was fantastic down the right.

    5 points from Man City, Spurs away and Man United away.

    I’ll take that I guess….

    The key to good form for Saints is to concede first apparently, who knew?

    Great performances, it’s a fight between Adams and Stephens for MOTM who was absolutely excellent after coming on, good game from Forster too.

    To be able to put in a performance like that as a team when Stu Armstrong and Broja arguably had poor games by their standards shows how well we are functioning as a unit.

    Also Ralph will be having a hard time sandwiching KWP, Perraud and Livramento in this team, best set of full backs we have had in a long time.

    Utd win 4-0 in yellow cards.
    That is something I would never have imagined, especially at OT.
