5string

Right, minute-and-a-half to go. Corner Saints. Make it count, JWP... ... nah. Good keeping from Cech.

NNOOOOO! Well, Saints, you had it coming, didn't you?! Sit back and bang! concede. Here comes the last minute penalty for Arsenal...

Gabbiadini on for Austin. Good shout, though maybe Long would have been better under the circumstances?

Lots of yellows being given suddenly. Arsenal getting their way gradually - falling down gets cards.

I hope we don't get into the position where we NEED another goal, but yeah, I agree with the sentiment. Double for Austin would be nice. Uh-oh Wenger getting annoyed & having a 'word' with the officials. So, a last minute pen to Arsenal coming up...

Boufal for Redmond

kind of...

Stephens defending well, but his passing... needs practice!

Still stunned he missed it. I mean, how...?

Ooh wow, what a shot from Romeu. Off the bar!

Ok, Saints, sit back like this and you WILL concede. Decent breakaway effort, but then close to conceding in return. Yikes!

"...Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Seeee-rengeti.." Edited now.

Haha whoops, dunno what happened there! 1-0 of course. Alright, so play like it's 0-0 now! Or something

They keeping showing repeats of Lacazette falling over clutching his ankle when he skied his shot. The Arsenal falling down display team has been practising. Ok, HT 1-0. Good so far.

Wasn't that handball, and didn't it prevent a Saints attack? Hmm, ok, had his back turned, no chance of it being deliberate.

Trying to utilise Redmond's pace is only partially successful because he keeps losing the ball at the crucial moment.

REDMOND!! PASS IT PROPERLY, YA FANNY!

JWP over-hitting everything. Bit over-eager? Control, mate, control!

Feel free to stop watching any time...

Hoj brilliant tackling back. Back 3 looking a bit indecisive & slow - maybe afraid of how easily Arsenal players go to ground?

Wow what a start!

Maybe Pep was annoyed Redmond didn't play even worse...

There we go - matched up the right parts. Also, spot on comments re: Hoj, Boufal, Lemina. I thought FF had a decent game, too. Bertrand finally woke up from his sulky, season-long slumber. Cedric really good today - his subbing possibly made a difference with their winner.

I agree with all of this.

On BBC website: "Pep v Redmond Manchester City 2-1 Southampton Pep Guardiola is tearing into Nathan Redmond as the Southampton winger comes off. Not sure what that's all about!" Any ideas?
