Match Thread Southampton v Leicester

[Graz]

****ing hell, that's a ridiculous start. Shambles.

That actually reminded me of that goal against us by Sam Allardyce's Bolton many years ago where he was exploiting a stupid offside loophole. Just the way they setup such a weird tactic to exploit a glaring weakness from a set piece.

 

[FOX Franks]

Nothing wring with us from corners.

 

[camberwell fox]

Why are we not capable of winning a 50/50 ball?

 

[Brown Nose]

There are West Ham away vibes to this start from us.

 

[fitz]

Remember lads. We overachieved in the last 2 seasons so this is fine.

 

[Jenks]

We’ll win.

 

[FOX Franks]

Why are we not capable?

Fixed it

 

[popillius]

Here we go. 2 yard passes around the edge of our own area before giving the ball away. I'm done with this shit.

 

[fitz]

My over 8.5 goals bet looks promising. Hope we get some of them.

 

[tedfoxxx]

That whole passage of play was ****ing painful. 30 or so passes in our own box and then a chip to Castagne who got doubled up on and we lost the ball.

 

[FOX Franks]

We are absolutely infuriating to watch at the moment. Has Brendan been watching a totally different set of games? Or has he got a bet on for how many needless goals we can concede by giving the ball away in stupid, stupid positons?

Beyond belief.

 

[Brown Nose]

Ndidi is a total mess.

 

[glyn]

Soumare and Ndidi really look a shambles don’t they

Standard play from the Rodgers Guide to Football.

That passage of play is our way these days. That or Kasper kicks it for a throw in.

They cannot play together. It is so obvious an untrained chimp could see it.

 

[popillius]

Ndidi is a total mess.

He's not being helped at all by being partnered next to a player that makes Junior Lewis look like a ****ing world beater.

 

[glyn]

I know it was offside but Wilf should be finishing that. But well played for two of them to be two feet offside for a fantastic free kick

The Southampton defence didn't even have to play them off. They just stood there like a bunch of twats.

 

[popillius]

Brilliant free kick. How two of them managed to be so far offside (and still not be able to put the ball in the net from a yard) is anyone's guess.
