I don’t even follow games against the like of Chelsea anymore. Just check the score a few times to verify we’re loosing and get on with my day. We’ll probably survive (just) but bugger all points, if any, will come from top 6 opposition.
I see JV has made Garth Crook’s Team Of The Week.
Shame the foolish old boy barely mentions him and instead goes on a rant about Man Utd. Yet Van Dijk also gets in and he can’t help but yank one off about him.
Moron.
Sickener right on half time.
Stuff like this always a danger against the big teams, if they’re not playing well then they can still score out of nowhere.
Tough job for Ralph now.
If you applied that 9.6% win rate over a season then we’d only win 3.6 games (11 points).
How the flip can you explain that record over 21 seasons of Premier League football?
BBC featured our terrible stat today...
Slow-starting Southampton
Southampton made a slow start to their Premier League campaign as they were beaten 3-0 by Burnley at Turf Moor. But it should come as no surprise for Saints fans as they have not won their opening league fixture since 2013-14 when they beat West Brom 1-0.
Southampton have a miserable opening Premier League weekend record with only two wins in 21 attempts - a winning return of 9.6%.
I genuinely thought Vestergaard was going to be a class player when we signed him. At that height, I was expecting him to dominate our back line and chip in with several goals. How wrong was I!
