That's taken the wind out of the sails a bit.

Yep. Still surprised to see it in the back of the net. How many chances do we need to get one?

It has been coming.

Redmond misses from the goal line.

Walcott misses a sitter.

I would.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Burnley get a second.

Burnley not sitting back at all.

Saints a bit of a shambles at the moment.

Tino lacks awareness back there.

Groan! Hopeless defending.

Daft free kick to concede.

I'm still greedy for more goals.😛

Saints really should be out of sight.

Salisu has been imperious until now. Got away with that.

That tackle was worse than JWP's.

Great goal. Should be a red card for the Leeds defender.

A bit more composure in attack please Saints.

Leeds will be delighted with that.

Leeds don't really look up for it at all. Has 0-1 written all over it.

Can't remember the last time that Saints looked dangerous from corners.

Could be for next season?

It's only human to have an irrational dislike of something, be it a food item, a tree or a football team and we tend to make decisions that reflect it. Why should a referee be any different? Not saying it's deliberate but maybe Dean had a bad pint in Southampton once. 😉

Looking at Chelsea's first goal Saints had 11 players defending in the penalty area but still left a free header at the far post by a Chelsea defender. Armstrong standing in the "D" marking nobody would have been be better placed standing on the halfway line occupying some defenders there while also being available for a quick break.

Well let's see how a midfield without JWP gets on for the next 3 games. He's been mostly poor this season so maybe a few games off will do him good.
