Our own Traore missed a penalty in the shootout.

Juric seems like a very reasonable appointment to me. Has a very decent record with several smaller clubs in Italy, punching above their weight. I wouldn't judge him on his short time at Roma. But for those that will... He only managed 8 league games and took 10 points. In their other 8 games either side of his tenure they have taken 6 points. They are closer to the relegation zone now than when he left.

Yep, basically cheering at us gifting them possession time and time again. I'm not defending him as such, he had to go. But if it was Russ overseeing that performance up to Archer's goal, he'd have been slated on here.

Some people are so desperate to hate on Martin. That first half was as bad and as dull as anything we've seen this season. We offered nothing in attack up until Archer's goal. After that we at least had a bit of a go and could have found an equaliser. Can't question the players for their effort but we are so short of quality at the top end of the pitch.

I'd be pretty happy with Rohl, probably about the best we can hope for atm As for his song, gotta be Daddy Cool

Also down to 10 men against Leicester, and 9 at Old Trafford with a bunch of kids playing.

Exactly how I feel. Grateful for last season and some great memories, sad that it's ended like this. But he had to go. No idea who we get in next, but I wouldn't be expecting much to improve.

Loads of them on here.

Nathan Wood. Thought he was decent again.

The game that famously cup-tied David Brooks.

Like when we brought in Nathan Jones?

I disagree. Most of our players are Championship standard.

I like Russ, he gave us a really enjoyable season last year and probably my best day out as a Saints fan at Wembley. I also like stability and really wanted it to work out for him in the PL, but I've reluctantly voted yes, mainly because of our complete lack of attacking intent/threat in recent games. That said, our problems are much bigger than the manager. We have the weakest squad in the PL and I really don't see anyone coming in and making much of a difference. So new guy comes in, and after another 10-15 games of crap results fans are calling for his head again, and the cycle repeats.

Congrats THB! Thought he had a shaky start to the season but has been much improved in recent games. Hopefully this will do his confidence the world of good.

When I saw the Echo headline of complaints about ticket prices, I thought they must be £40 or something. £30 for a quarter final against Liverpool seems about right to me.

"Donald Trump is no friend of Britain". Neither is David Lammy but we still have to tolerate the cunt.

I thought it was an awful game between two very poor teams today, we were far too slow and passive (more than usual). Imo we played better in the home games against Ipswich, Leicester and even Man Utd yet they only yielded a point. Football is a funny old game. Not a pretty win but a vital one, so I'll absolutely take it.

More likely Dibling hasn't been great and looked a bit jaded the last few games, and is a good asset to have coming off the bench in the second half? Makes sense imo. With 5 subs allowed these days, the starting lineup is less important. It's a squad game.

That's just not true though, the exact same things were said about Selles when Jones was sacked, yet by the end of the season he was being booed and called clueless etc. Put Lallana in charge and after a few more defeats the masses will be calling for another change.

I am in the Northam and thought yesterday was the worst it's been so far, which is a shame as it was good against Ipswich. The large problem where I am at least (block 44) is that there is singing to the left and right at the same time but different songs, so it ends up just all fizzling out. Another thing is that we still haven't scored a goal at the Northam, and in truth most of what little attacking action we've had has been at the other end. We really have had precious little to get excited about. Also those in the Itchen North saying they can only hear the away fans, they are literally right opposite you so it's hardly surprising is it. Before this season I was in Kingsland North and for the last few years barely heard the Northam, it had been crap for ages. We need new songs, but we also need a sense of hope and optimism which has been sadly lacking in the PL for years.

That was their only meaningful chance, that aside they never really looked like scoring. You could also ask how many more goals might we have conceded with a more 'active' approach? Fact is Leeds were favourites but we won relatively comfortably.

Onuachu was an entertaining performer, is he a serious option for you? RM: Yeah, definitely. He has to be, otherwise he's not on the bench. He's trained so well after a summer of disruption. There was will he be here, won't he be here? It was tough for him to deal with, I think, but then since the window's shut it's just a different beast. He's been trained so well, always makes his mark in training physically and has got a really good record wherever he's been, apart from here in those six months. Last year he went out on loan for several different reasons, finance, playing in a top league, us having Che Adams and these guys that we knew what they could do. Paul was lesser known to us and this summer was what it was and now he's here. We have to use him if we think he can help us and I definitely think he can. https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/24632731.every-word-southamptons-martin-said-arsenal-defeat/

One of Fernandes and Lallana need to be on the pitch at all times, they both ooze class and composure. And there are some right miserable fuckers on here!
