And they're through. Some good defensive performances and a tidy looking midfield but finishing not that great to be honest.
 
Just wondering how many of the Chelsea, mishit shots, were down to them realising Fraser was in goal.
Very good goal.
Why are we still persevering with McQueen?
 
See the Jason McCarthy has been nominated for Player of the Month for League 2 side Wycombe Wanderers where he is on loan - good luck to him.
 
Definitely saw it announced on the Sky ribbon yesterday, because I watched it round again to check, but possibly that was in error.

That could well have been the PFA Fans' Player of the Month? It's sponsored by Sky Sports and is basically just a public vote so that might explain Evans winning.

The article I linked mentions that the winner isn't announced until Friday.
 
Ronald was there :)
He wasn't impressed...

RONALD Koeman has revealed that he has not selected many of Saints’ academy players because they are simply not close to the required Premier League standard.

Koeman went to see Saints’ Under-21s beat Chelsea 1-0 as they began their defence of the Premier League Under-21 Cup on Wednesday.

However, he wasn’t impressed by what he saw from the club’s youngsters.
