Match Day Thread Southampton FC v Hapoel Be'er Sheva, Europa League, Thursday 8th December, KO 8.05pm

More chances in the last 5 minutes than the first 85?

 

Had we had played with any ambition and intensity at all we would have won this group comfortably

Not good enough. Shame I can't get pissed on half a shandy.

 

Puel was given a shotgun, but with acorns for bullets. I actually feel for him.

 

Well done saints on plowing it. Well done beer sheeva on being the biggest bunch of pansies to ever come to St Mary's. I hope you get battered by whoever you play next. Puel - seriously mate come on. Drop Redmond. Please. And play with more urgency. There are glaciers retreating at a faster pace. Not one bit stoked or excited for boro at the weekend but I will watch because that's just the way football is. Sort this dross out.

 

So, better off by 2 goals in goal difference but still out. Oh well. Bring on the Paint Trophy!

 

Possession doesn't count if you're not doing anything productive with it. We were lacklustre tonight

 

Is it bad that most of my frustration is at Nathan Redmond today? He looks like such a one trick pony.. what is the point in beating your man if you cant do anything with the ball afterwards?

 

Kinda sums up our problems that missed chances from our CBs have killed us. But we've been the architects of our own downfall.

Would've been sweet if Maya had put that in just to stick a middle finger up to the 1000s already out of the stadium, even if we didn't really deserve it.

 

Played too defensive from the start of that game.not for the 1st time this season either.we were the home team but it didint look like it.very disapointing

 

Agree. As we have been away in Israel, Italy and Prague. And Hull!

 

Does the team that finishes in 3rd place, drop down into the Champion's League?

 

Look at how longit has taken City wiith their assortment of riches to get use to playing in Europe. This is Southampton's first season so the aim must be to qualify again as soon as possible.

 

He's crap.

 

We can all get behind Athletic Bilbao now!!!!

 

Where was the urgency, the passion, the warriors. Wet ****ing weekend of a performance in what should of been a hurricane of red and white.

I hope the **** that Puel wasn't playing for draw, because it felt like it sometimes. Very very disappointing.

 

Redmond needs to be dropped, that was a woeful performance.

 

Again disagree, how many ****s did we have on target, I thought he was the real deal, but he cannot change his tactics, teams like this we should rip apart, teams like Chelsea we should be defensive, but it seems to be one Tactic regardless, I bet if we play Romsey, he would set up hoping to get a goal on the break. And if you look at my history I have always been an Optimist. We have good players, who are playing against type and the result is a muddle and we are going backwards fast. The campaign in Europe is unforgivable, had we showed a little bit of Bravado, we should have won that group with15 points

 

Oh go on, just a bit.

 

Our squad (and manager) last season would have blown this group apart.

EDIT: Almost forgot about Midget land. Ah, bollocks to Europe!!
