Saint NL

A bit better this half. A shot at least

That looked like handball

Positive changes at least.

Southampton Southampton have conceded a goal in 18 successive top-flight away matches for the first time since 1989 that's some crazy stat

Very poor. I had to double check that Diallo was playing, I genuinely don't recall him doing anything in that half. Elyounoussi has been awful, but at least I knew he was on the pitch. Big changes needed for the second half. There's nothing up front, Che needs someone to pass to him.

Freekick there? Ffs ref

That looked offside to me. I don't understand how it wasnt

He's offside. Come on var

Fuck sake. 1-0

Elyounoussi again, too slow and loses it in a promising position

Villa starting to get on top. Need to see it out to half time and make some changes

Classic Moi. Slow, no idea what to do with the ball and then gets out muscled.

Djenepo is all over the pitch at the moment. Good to see

Nasty one on Perraud.

I think there's where we miss Broja. In this team he would have been the missing piece

Dendonkers moustache is fantastically shite

Nice play Djenepo

This lineup has so few goals in it. I only hope the plan is to keep it tight then bring on the attackers after an hour.

Bazunu is playing sweeper keeper 👀

McGinn is bullying KWP. We need ABK to tackle him 😈

So he will come back to the PL next summer? Norwich will be promoted, and he returns there for free .... Works out nicely for him

Edozie with some good stats already

It's being reported on BBC Sport. Crazy. Southampton rejected a £50m proposal from Chelsea for Belgian midfielder Romeo Lavia, 18, on deadline day, having only just signed him from Manchester City. (Daily Echo)

Between the ABK chance and Che's two headers there were enough chances to score at least one. The stats show 12 shots and only one on target. It wasn't Che's day today, but there isn't really another option. Edozie looks a player, but probably as an impact sub for a while. Defense was alright, we missed Lavia as the shield in front though. Meh, one of those days. It's only really the Spurs game this season where you could say we really deserved to lose.

That's true. His strike partner in this second half is Adam Armstrong, who isn't exactly prolific
