He quite clearly did, watch the replays again, that was no accident.

Well he wasn’t brilliant, he was quite good, much better than against Bournemouth but thereby lies the JWP conundrum. He will have a decent game or two then go back to square one. His first corner today btw was bloody horrendous. We have better options than Prowsey I believe.

Lovren really is the gift that keeps on giving.....and he’s not just for Christmas

Very impressed by the whole team today in general. Tadic very good first half, very poor second half. Not a Redmond fan and nothing made me change my view of him today. I’m not sure he has a football brain, he’s better when he hasn’t got time to think about what he has to do. I despaired when I saw the line up but in fairness it worked. JWP much better than last week, Stephens, VVD and Yoshida very solid. Hojberg very good again. My only issue is why no Lemina ? He is the best midfielder we have and why the hell he didn’t even get bought on baffles me I’m afraid

Very impressed with Stephens today

what a complete nipple this guy is. It’s not just that you signed them David it’s the fact you paid so much for the privilege that’s the really funny part.

He likes the tv cameras a bit too much and as for treating every player exactly the same ? Yeah course you do Mark

well he hasnt given one away yet

More Ted MacDougall than Sheringham. Limited outside the box but stick him anywhere near that 6 yard box and more iften than not he’ll get you a goal. It was good to see both for Everton and Bournemouth games that ball was being put in the area from out wide a lot more. Playing to a strikers strengths - about bloody time

Absolutely. If next match a goal comes from the left and Boufal is stood on the halfway line with his hands in his hips there will be outrage he wasn’t tracking back.

yes, good to see him working to get back and cover. He’s looking like living up to his reputation if he continues to get picked every week.

I think taking the last three games as a whole there is definite improvement, certainly over the previous three games. Maybe this clear the air meeting has done some good.

Redmond.....oh great

and when they do get round to it they are looking at what club Howe should manage next

Well I've spoken to a couple of gay friends since this happened and they both said "seriously?" and commented how ridiculous it was. As already mentioned he was the only one among all the Saints fans singing that at one particular moment to get hooked out and done for it was he ? Three years for that is totally over the top. People come on here and moan about no atmosphere at football. Might get worse as people will be frightened to open their mouths in case they say something that someone takes offence at.

No girls among the Brighton fans then ?

Like a lot of your posts that’s ********. Shearer always gives us a fair appraisal for a start.

Dont expect them to give us much credit or praise BUT would expect them to name the players who are actually playing instead of a player who isnt even on the bloody bench !

Any idea what the Cedric injury was ? Could do with him not being out Sunday

you think ?

Hoping this is the managers thinking as well tbh especially regarding point no. 3

Being a pessimist I can only see 7 points out of that lot......altho if we do our usual and beat Bournemouth its a healthier 10

I said that at the match, save Charlie for the Bournemouth game.

yes, apparently he’s not very mobile and that bothers some on here. For me he knows where that thing with the net at each end of the pitch is so, here’s an idea, play to his strengths and let’s see what happens. Worked today albeit against crap but don’t have him chasing shadows out wide or near the halfway line, have him prowling in the box or just outside of it. It shouldn’t be rocket science but MP has made a bloody meal of it........and I don’t buy all that crap about a renewed attitude in training either, that’s just an excuse.

I was always in favour of keeping him until the summer. Having watched him today I’m not too bothered if we cash in on him in January.
