I do think most of the reason for that is mainly down to the substitutions which at best seem baffling! It happens every game. Talked about a lot on here I know but it’s frustrating that RM seems to be the only one who can’t see it.
Saints will be ball number two in tonight's Carabao Cup quarter-final draw. Russell Martin's side secured a spot in the last eight for the second time in three years with a dramatic 3-2 win over Stoke on Tuesday night. Tonight's draw will be televised live on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Football and Sky Sports Ultra following the conclusion of the Tottenham versus Manchester City fixture. The ball numbers are as follows: 1. Brentford 2. Southampton 3. Aston Villa or Crystal Palace 4. Brighton & Hove Albion or Liverpool 5. Manchester United or Leicester City 6. Newcastle United or Chelsea 7. Preston North End or Arsenal 8. Tottenham Hotspur or Manchester City
Was it just 14 goals all season under Maurinho that Chelsea concede when they won the league. Food for thought
Good point, on Solent, Blackmore didn't think it was a penalty, but his oppo. Jo Tessem was adamant that it was a clumsy challenge that didn't get the ball.
It was definitely a foul by the Preston player, but looked like he was fouled just before by Sugawara which, if VAR agreed, would’ve meant their free kick rather than a pen
Dunno if I can be arsed with an Everton fred. Currently only have a 25% loss rate for the season and can only see that increasing
I thought Fraser was dreadful for his 30 minutes. And yet somehow Cornet was even worse. All summer, the one thing I wanted more than anything was to take full advantage of our two PL loan slots. Instead, it feels like we've totally wasted them.
Whilst I agree, are there any PL loanees doing well at other clubs? Not sure how JWP is getting on at Forest, but apart from him I can’t think of any
From what I've seen, I reckon Kepa and Buonanotte have been the best two so far. Moreno and Phillips seem to be settling in recently. And Nelson seems to be a useful option for Fulham off the bench. I was quite surprised that Villa were willing to let Moreno go. I have no idea about someone like Chalobah at Palace or Harrison at Everton. But it's not just about the players who have gone on loan to other PL clubs. There's also the players are didn't end up getting a move anywhere or who went abroad. PS. I think it's meant to be about now that Broja was due back from injury. Knowing our luck, he'll be fit to play 15 mins on Saturday, and will score the winner for Everton.
Pretty sure that Saints fans have had an encounter with the despair squid. And we're all having a Duane Dibley moment
