Manuel

Steven Davis.

Would be daft to risk serious injury before moving on.

Endless crosses for opposing central defenders heading practice. We should charge for that really.

I agree, but we can't blame Puel for that. I'm not happy either but we were 7th under him not so many weeks ago. It's losing and not replacing the best central defenders in the league that's done us.

Wonder where we'd be if VVD and Fonte were still in defence.

I think strikers have worked out to keep it low against Forster and he can't get down in time.

Redmond for J-Rod please. I don't know who could come on in midfield.

If Fonte scores I will cry AND wet the bed, and I'm not even in the bedroom so I'll have to make a special trip.

Could really do with a win. Got a feeling they will out muscle us on set pieces though and sneak a win against run of play.

I would take a draw right now.

Boufal, Romeu, Forster particularly good. Rest ok. Too few shots on target and CB void is our problem. With the players on the pitch I thought we were alright. We need to shore up the defence and we need to hope this Italian can score.

Boufal inspires the team. He should start every game.

Much better attack with boufal on the pitch.

Yes and even that I think that was down to Swansea tactics...sit tight for ten minutes while they come at us, then start playing.

No shots on target. Forster keeping us in it.

Could this selection be a point to Reed that we need to buy?

Poor team selection by manager. Embarrassing result.

Well the expected has happened. FA cup thrown away. I enjoy seeing reserves and academy players on the pitch but surely not all at once.

Well lots of youth and energy there.

Interesting.

I know it's heresy to say it but I actually preferred the all red shirt.

The club slowly being placed in the hands of people who have no interest in Southampton, the club history, the city. The Chinese will do well financially out of it, and might even tart up the stadium but at what long term cost. If this is what it takes to attempt to push on up the league it's not for me, I'd rather stay as we are.

Klopp moaning about "obvious handball" against Long here at 4:15. Arms by his side but he does move himself towards the ball and gain advantage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG9eSXcZ0aI

Would like to see him start more.

Excellent today, between him and Romeu for MOTM.
