adrian lord

Mara and Fraser, incoming

We started to flag this last five minutes time for some subs

Stoke are diabolical - we should really put them to the sword in this next half an hour

The only noise in the stadium are the Saints travelling hordes!

Sulemana different class out there. Belongs in the upper reaches of the premier

Alcaraz starting to get into it

Has Alcaraz touched the ball yet tonight?

To be fair, he made a Miele of it.

Stoke are starting to fall apart. Their discipline is completely ragged.

That Hoover bloke is having a mare against Sulemana

Who needs James Ward-Prowse?!!!

Stu

Well, we are very lucky that Stoke’s forwards are absolutely hopeless

Manning need to look lively

Great move, but Sulemana balloons it

Sulemana is really classy

We are still a cardiologist’s nightmare at the back

These corners are not great for my blood pressure

That was hairy

Thank heavens for that.

Yet another incident where myriad Southampton defenders are lined up perpendicular to the goal in a line passing through the penalty spot, and we nearly concede

Those subs have been effective, but were arguably 5 to 10 minutes too late

Much better

And his whistle

Poor decision-making by Alcaraz
