    You sense that Southampton's biggest issue is confidence the more you watch them, far too anxious about making a mistake. So happy to go in ahead :).

    Romeu a bit rusty, Yoshi looking a bit timid.

    Vestergaard playing well.

    Hjobjerg and Ings playing excellently.

    After 1 week, This is the change! Given time we will blow teams at the lower end of the league away! I sure as hell feel confident.

    This is the best I’ve seen from Saints since the Koeman years. Thank you Ralph.

    Now stop the individual errors, of which there are still too many, and keep it together at the back!

    Oh, another 4 or 5 goals from us would be nice too!

    We just need that elusive win to boost confidence. I hope our players can keep going for the whole 90, as it must be a lot of effort to press so high all match.

    I've been impressed with Vestergaard Here, I think Romeu has been immense also! We look extremely solid, It only took a fantastic cross, to beat us.

    Arsenal will come out all guns blazing 2nd half. Going to need a 3rd I suspect.

    Imagine ending a 22 unbeaten run, First home game at St marys in ages.. That will boost us no end!! The players will undoubtedly be eating out of Ralphs palms.. You can expect the players to Buy in straite away.. And put the effort in. We will be okay.

    Keep feet on the ground. This has been good. But there's more goals in this.

    Nice that we have discovered this thing called pressing again.
    I doubt Ings will last much past 60 mins. So take your pick between Long and Austin.
    Still too many useless long shots for some reason, I will bang on about this forever.
    Enjoy your 16,000 pints.

    Probably need at least 1 more to win, but regardless of the result the signs are encouraging.

    We have great threat here in Long and Austin. Im backing us to get a 3rd.
