Your posts over one lost game of football are all the insight I probably need. Be disappointed sure...just think big picture a bit more perhaps?,

What if finishing as high as possible in the league provided Mopo with extra funds to strengthen the squad for the following season and beyond? Would that be OK? Anyway, as some of the enlightened on here have pointed out, the team put out was near full strength. Our talisman Lambert missed an absolute sitter from 4 yards out. The team performance was flat and poor...is that the fault of the manager? Sure, be disappointed, but place the blame fair and square with the pro players on the pitch. Unless yiu have an agenda of course.

Well done with a really good balanced post. So, the fact is we played an almost full strength team that lost by one goal and put in a very poor shift. And yet some on here are "fuming" and its all the Managers fault?!

How confusing. In your OP you suggest Mopo threw the game for personal gain, but then say he wanted to win and put out a team capable of winning. Twisted logic at best....simple fact is that the players on the pitch including the likes of SRL, JRod and Lallana had a really poor game and we lost the game to a worldly.

You really need to get some perspective in your Iife mate.

Absolutely this...top answer.

LOL. Boo frickin hoo. LOL. We lost a game of football. The FA Cup is not what it used to be...primary focus for a team in our position right now is Prem consolidation. LOL

Sure, the players were pants today. But Mopo is "hero to zero"?!?!? Come on.... grow up....spoilt brats springs to mind.

What a bunch of numpties on here, headed up by the biggest of the lot Glasgow. We're sat 8th in PL playing great football. So we've lost agame of football...yeah the players let themselves and the fans down. It happens. Get over yourself. Jeez.

Shockingly poor performance...one of the worst I can remember in years.

Worse perforformance from Saints in years.

Not enough quality being shown in attack...very slow. As for Davis...why does he insist on trying to hit Shaws head at every opportunity?

Ref giving everything to Sunderland but then Saints have been poor in possession.

Sounds like a great money making idea....£20 for team B games anyone? Now, IF they price the games right...say no more than £10 it could become very popular indeed - bit like College Football in the USA.

If anyone thinks we've got an easy run to the final they're mad. This game could be lost quite easily given it's away and the weather could be awful, plus Sunderland are no push-over. At least the thug Brown is not playing. If we win it'll be something like 2-3. Even if we get through this round, there's every chance we'll get drawn against one of the top four - not that we can't beat those teams, but it will be very tough.

This guys looks like he's got Adam skills but on steroids...nice goals and he's young enough to improve where necessary. Would be a great signing.

Mmm, Yoshida and Fonte have done pretty well together by all accounts. Lovren will not necessarily walk straight back into the starting line-up.

£80 extra on top of my £800 ST - they must be 'aving a laff!

I defo would not take Rose over Shaw. What about team spirit if nothing else - the lad WANTS to be here?!

Great battling game - Fonte was immense at the back and clinical in front of goal too. Lambert was sloppy with a few balls unfortunately and JRod wasted some clear chances too - we need our front line to be more clinical. Midfield is looking very, very solid indeed with Ward-Prowse and Wanyama coming off the bench. Even Guly doesn't look too bad lately with a bit of fire in his belly and unlucky not to score this evening. Top three points and now sat 8th with Utd in our sights.

We will lose 1-3...We've lost the knack of winning by finishing off teams.

If you had to put money on Lambert or Carroll scoring from the penalty spot in a crucial game with all the pressure, I know where mine would go....and it wouldn't be Carroll. This alone places SRL above AC.

Heartfelt condolences to Sam and his family.

Utter rubbish reporting...not one quote...a case of 2+2=5 if ever I saw one. And anyway, why would Mopo swap his Super Saints for Real?

The use of an Adidas generic shirt (despite its admittedly better build and material quality) was a dreadful decision by someone...was it really NC? Anyone like to furnish absolute proof?
