Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Southampton FC – Saturday 2nd September 2023 - KO 12:30

Well **** me sideways, if ba had a brain it could be 5 or 6

 

good half but that ref is going to spoilt it at some point, too many 'easy' free kicks for them but 'yaya' ekwah is looking good.

never mind LND, the fans sang a song for ya!!

 

Always seems to get our games he must ask for them.

 

Need a solid first 15 in second half. Pritchard on for Dack to manage the game.

 

Their goalie is very suspect mind. I'd be having a go from everywhere and anywhere.

 

Couple run of games and Ba is improving. Obviously still very raw but he’s been impressive that first half.

 

I mute it unless we're in the final third ...

... I'm sick of hearing how great Southampton and their manager are.

It's like Brendan Rodgers and Swansea all over again, except that was only 2-0

 

I’m still struggling to see it. Still looks like a futsal player. Desperate for him to prove me wrong as seems a great lad and clearly outrageously talented

 

he’s still trying. Keepers mistake rather than a good shot. He needs knocking out

 

I think we might have wasted some money on strikers lads!

 

wow sitting in my seat shocked what a half keep it up lads

 

I wonder if Stewart is watching this thinking "****"

 

Got to fancy Ekwah for a hat trick if he's awarded the first goal. Think it was going wide but not sure.

 

Just back………

what is this sorcery?

 

Well this looks promising

 

Absolutely outstanding, that. Southampton’s squad is one of the best the championship has seen, and we’ve mixed it with them. More of the same second half please.

 

Like as I say he has a long way to go and is still very raw but surely you could seen an improvement in his game from that first half ?

 

His final ball has been shocking but only way it improves is game time
