Strong hands from Bazunu there.

World class save, Bazunu.

Mara with zero effort in this game so far.

I'd get them on now.

People on here have been telling me it's worth sacrificing a bit of shot stopping ability in a keeper to have him play those 10-15 yard passes to defenders. 🤷🏼‍♂️

A Armstrong as the main striker by himself is too easy to mark out of the game.

Thank god for no VAR, eh.

Downes not having a great game so far today.

Yeah, he would have reached it a few feet past the post if it hadnt deflected closer to him...?

Lol 2 shots on target 2 goals.

As a world class sweeper keeper you'd expect him to come for high balls that take an age to travel across the box, yes.

I don't think he was meant to be back defending there. We took a quick short corner which left a few of our players looking confused - Armstrong in the middle didn't even realise we'd taken it.

Pathetic defending. Header right next to the keeper...

Yeah wtf 😂

Glad to see Mara getting a chance. Think he's got real potential.

It's undeniably because West Ham have players more suited to attacking set pieces than we have since Van Dijk left. That's hardly JWP fault - what else is he supposed to do but take the best corner he can and hope somebody in the middle is good enough to get on the end of it?

Bree is our backup right back so he'll be involved this season without a doubt.

Another assist from a corner for JWP last night. But his corners are terrible, or something.

Che needs to be starting every game now. It's up to Stewart to force his way into the team when he's fit.

He decides he fucking hates it in Southampton and skies his penalty to lose us the game.

"We brought Ballard into the first team as a replacement for Adams" would be a typical Saints move. Gotta clear that log jam of strikers.

I agree with both of you. I know he was highly rated as a youngster but he's now 26, and in his entire career he's scored 12 goals and got 11 assists in over 150 games. Doesn't scream one of the best midfielders in the division as one person said, or particularly creative as another said, and it's an undeniable fact that the player he would be replacing scored more goals last season than Roberts has his entire career. Doesn't mean he won't be good, but it's not unreasonable to have doubts about this signing.

If your performance contributed to your employer losing £100million or more a year in revenue I think your be thanking God if all you got was a 40% pay cut.

Maybe they're sending us an imposter?

Don't think it will be on the app because it's on TV? Isn't that how it works, only non-TV games are shown on it?
