What did I lip read in that huddle - “this is our chance to catch the eye of some of the big boys lads so put a shift in!”?

I hope he knows what he's doing with that line-up.

Depends what iteration of Arsenal turns up.

St Mary's is a great location. Just enlarge if we need to. No way go for an out of town place.

Boscombe aren’t finished yet we need to be careful

How did that not go in?

Wasteful

Oh dear

Come on you Saints

YEEEES Austin

We were good for 20 mins but have gone right off the boil.

Hoedt has been a disappointing signing.

****

Yes I did and that was always going to get the top team of taters...

I think VVD has visibly improved his work rate and body language these last 3 games. Looks sharp and in the zone to me.

Sky got their ‘C’ team of taters on this game.

Dive all day. Technique that would not shame the Olympic baths.

Forster at last seems to have emerged from his 18 month stupor.

Some lovely stuff. Pied and Boufal impressing, and all seem really up fo it.

Pied is excellent

Untidy. Rushed at times. Need to stop giving it away.

Positive enough start.

I remember the entire Saints away support all singing that song in unison at Brighton not so long ago, and also the "town full of bombers" one at Luton. We should surrender en masse at the police station and ask to be charged with hate crimes.

It is merely a hackneyed humorous joke chant, not malice or hatred.

If he thinks other teams will read/hear the Redmond interchange and suddenly say, “Oh ok, lets attack City at the Etihad!” Then he is utterly deluded. Even Man U and Chelsea will be defensive, let alone the Stokes and WBAs and Palaces... P.S. anyone else have a sneaking suspicion Guardiola mistook Redmond for Bertrand?
