Totally agree, with the exception of changing Redmond and possibly giving Boufal a chance - or at the very least, sticking Tadic on the left and Redmond on the right. How have I never heard of this before? Doesn't look very legit...

Apparently so, that we were god awful playing Gabbi alone up top, never looked like getting anywhere near the goal and have played a lot better with Long making runs across the pitch, winning headers and holding the ball up.

So are Sportsmania/SportsnationHD not reliable anymore with the recent crackdowns? I'd honestly have no problem paying for the service as whenever I used it before it was always great, HD quality, but I don't want to pay only to find out the streams get taken down 5 minutes into the first half.

Any suggestions for streams? I know they've been cracking down this season.

Yeah I will be amazed if he plays against Liverpool at all, I wouldn't trust him to put in a professional performance.

If you have the rail at the back of the step (which it needs to be anyway to attach the seat) rather than the front of the step, then there's definitely enough room.

What do you mean before Puel didn't pick him? He was first choice up front from the first game of the season!

Yep, the stats would indicate you're actually much better off just taking it short and playing on as normal.

Wasn't it around this time last season that Austin got injured and the goals dried up as a result? Amazing that people are slating him now.

Interestingly I noticed we had more shots on goal (14) and the same amount of shots on target (4) as Man United. I certainly don't remember many, other than the Romeu and Redmond shots.

Been awful all season, needs dropping as i'm starting to think he's just gotten complacent as a seemingly guaranteed starter.

We've played a lot better with Long up front on his own rather than Gabbiadini. I like Gabbi, but he should never start on his own again - unless we're working on his link up play in training.

Ref had a shocker at the end there, had the stopwatch on my phone...we played 1 minute 40 seconds of football after the injury board went up. Disgrace.

Should have started van dijk.

Actually the majority can keep time, it's just when the dinlos way behind me in block 42 join in that it goes to pot. When chants start down the front, or in the Kingsland, or over in the Itchen they keep the right pace.

Not in the sense of "we're going to murder all of your players". Just actually making a lot of noise when chanting and keeping it going, rather than it just petering out after two renditions. The Wanyama chant away to Arnhem is a good example.

Club should offer to trial safe standing immediately. We probably can't do it in the Northam - people get moved from there for cup games - so do it in the Kingsland/Northam corner instead.

Not sure why people keep saying Tadic had a shot for the goal, he was crossing it with pace and the keeper tried to push it away from goal.

In all honestly, I can't see him leaving the club at all, let alone within the next 3-5 years.

I agree, although he is now the same age Mane was in his second season with us so it's not entirely unfair to compare them. However just because he has a few years to develop yet doesn't mean he should be immune to criticism and I still maintain that dropping him for a few games would benefit him.

He needs some time out of the spotlight for me, doesn't look right (maybe a confidence thing) so drop him down to the bench for a few games. He just isn't taking players on the same way he was last season. I do wish we'd play him on the right and Tadic on the left to try and get them crossing with their stronger feet...

Martina was nowhere near as bad for us as people made out, actually had a good game yesterday. Was certainly strange seeing him and Rooney in the same team though...

Ah yeah, very good! Second line could do with changing, reckon it'd work better as; Mario, Mario Lemina, Mario, he's a great midfielder, Mario, Never gives the ball awayyy...

Saints fans are at the side of the pitch so what does that matter?

What is it? Didn't come across on the tv.
