    The moment I saw that City team, I said that Long and Mane could have a field day. Shocking CBs coupled with full backs who'll leave acres of space to counter them. Very similar to how Leicester beat them at the Etihad.

    But even I never expected us to hurt them quite that much (or them to be quite that bad).

    (Ever so slightly concerning that Jay looked knackered from the moment he came on - but given what had gone on in the game to that point, it was more comical than worrying)

    Does that website let you take clips?
    Would love to see some of the skills from Davis again. Shortly before he came off he was dancing round the City defense

    I know Sadio got 3 good goals,, but, for me (and, apparently, Thierry) I would say Shane was MOTM today. He was awesome - everywhere (even chased back a couple of times to dispossess their players), scored a great goal and pulled their defence all over the place.
    Please do it again next Saturday Shane!!

    I wouldn't even rank it in the top three passes of the first half.

    Both of Tadic's assists and Martina's ball over the top were better.

    Don't let a weakened Citeh team take anything away from Saints, they still probably cost more than us!.
    We were brilliant today from the kick off and should've probably led 4-1 at HT. Shane and Sadio's form is a bloody revelation with their pace and movement and with Dusan pulling the strings, it's a lethal combination. Steven Davis was great today too and we can beat anyone when we play like that.
    A brilliant day for the club and fans all round with past legends in attendance, can't wait for SKD's testimonial!.

    Thoroughly enjoyed that ... we just looked so dangerous, and they looked so terrified it was unreal.

    When I went for 2-1 you know that was my half time prediction don't you? :rolleyes:

    Shane Long MOM for me. Lots of running about and scaring the defence to death. Excellent! :D

    Just got in from the match - just spent 5 wasted minutes trying to convince my wife that large portions of the crowd singing " you're just a **** Fraser Forster" to Joe Hart was funny, as was the 4 year old kid next to me who joined in with it, except he substituted poo for **** as he knew his dad would tell him off if he didn't <laugh>
