Match Day Thread Southampton vs Man City, 1730, Sat 8th

[Le Tissier's Laces]

Sulemana looks dangerous, Alcaraz playing a decent game too. Stones could get a second yellow. I mean, it's unlikely, but it's still possible.

 

[Che’s Godlike Thighs]

Playing very well on the whole. City absolutely focusing on the left-side because we have an out-of-position player there. It's like Selles is blind to this every time.

And AMN at fault for the goal. Can he even sprint? Or is jogging his top speed?

 

[Onionman]

This is my biggest complaint about the whole situation. We play like this against Leeds and West Ham and we may have got something. Absolutely infuriating.

We're better against sides that come at us. People have complained that we can't break down teams that come to defend since I started watching Saints.

Tall Paul on for the second half rather than being wasted (as usual) on the bench ? ?

Which means we're totally screwed next weekend when Palace come to us.

Ely doing his usual and performing well against a big 6 side.

 

[Itchen Masack]

We've had some decent chances, and for the most part played well but that goal just means City can run us around in the second half. Feels like it's over unless we get some crazy free kick/sending off.

 

[Che’s Godlike Thighs]

Gotta say, if Tella can score, what, 17 goals in the Championship, then Sulemana will get 20+ at least.

Oh yeah! Doomed. Doomed, I tell ye.

So much this.

My Geordie neighbour is to blame for the goal.

Pre or post the Norman conquest?

 

[Saint Elsewhere]

**** it, just have to score two now. Only a bit harder than the original task.

COYR!

 

[EasyBreezer]

Ely doing his usual and performing well against a big 6 side.

They put a stat up showing he had the fewest touches bar Haaland.

If him doing well is not touching the ball then I do not understand football anymore.

 

[San Tejón]

That tactic, launching it long from a corner is why I would us to leave Sulemana on the halfway line for them.

 

[steve79]

This ref is ****ing awful

 

[thereisonlyoneno7]

2-0

I can hear the fat lady warming her vocals

 

[ChilcoSaint]

Oh bollocks. I mean, I knew we were going to lose this, but, you know, hope and all that.

 

[Lovelocum]

Please be over season.
