Southampton vs Manchester United Match Thread

Makes horrendous tackles?

 

I'm wondering how long I will last watching this. Not this game in particular...I find I can no longer watch Saints whether at SMS or on tv (I'm far too twitchy). I'm looking forward to the cup games...always more relaxed about those.

 

Well if one of our attacking players gets injured, Koeman won't have a choice but to play a youngster! Lol

 

Very different to that Italian beast in the other thread. Kid's built like an oak tree.

 

British white lads mature later than other Europeans and Africans. They can still be growing at 19.

 

Perhaps we need to stick them in a greenhouse. I could have done with a lot more compost myself...

 

Must be all that chicken we are supposed to eat.

In terms of culture and maturity, I think any player coming in from overseas, be it Europe or Africa, or wherever, is going to tend to be more mature than the equivalent British player, simply because they have made the emotional jump of leaving their home country. That's very character building. British players tend to stay in Britain, and a great reason for that is that British players already speak the football world's international language. It effectively becomes a cultural barrier.

 

Gents, anyone got a decent stream? I'm at work so it's a bit of a pain to find one

Hodgson's there. I may be sick.

 

Ref is crap

 

Clyne looks to be playing significantly deeper than normal - I expect he's playing more defensive than normal to make up for the defensive cover provided by a third CM.

 

For ****s sake

 

Another ****ing giveaway goal.

 

Awful from Fonte.

 

Piss ****ing poor.

 

There it is! The Southampton I remember!

 

bad, bad mistake. Though if only Pelle could hit a barn door

 

Smalling injured, replaced by Evans.

 

If we can get our act together, there are definitely goals in this for us

 

Mane looks like a waste of money.

Forget that, he's useless.
