IMO CL football or playing for Liverpool was secondary.for AL and Lovren, it was all about the extra ££££££££££££££. The warm feeling of the fans adoring you and singing your name will be just nostalgia for Those 2 now, I do wonder if the £s will be worth it as they would be very rich even if they hadn't moved

No the biggest issue is that the keeper who must have a stretch close to 9 feet didnt come a pluck the ball out of the air, it was a floated ball, not one of pace and the defence had kept a high line leaving plenty of space for FF to come and catch, period

Perhaps if they had not had the Man U badge on their chests the players may have had a little more belief. As a fan i was thinking they will start playing well, but they didnt we just gifted them the result. A long floated free kick that ended 4-5 yards out should be simple for any keeper to collect

Lets hope the fans do not turn on FF. I hope RK has a word with our goalkeeping coach and spends a week on FF dealing with positioning to sweep a long ball. His starting position is far too deep. Apart from that decision making FF is a decent keeper

As per our corners , one thing I don't understand is that there is nobody at the back post if the ball is flicked on.We all seem to be at the front or middle of the goal

ok thanks, I make some accusations about our performances but not that untrue

im not sure Boruc would have stopped the first

I never said we were abysmal,we should have put them to the sword.

no manager would say such things but he picked out Long for his misses, which did surprise me, he also intimated about FF. Unfortunately there is a pattern to the lack of commanding the area or sweeping through balls from our keeper. Is there an embargo on giving honest opinions on here?

personally it is frustration that we should have won at a canter

I would rather him come on when the opposition are tiring.Perhaps take Pelle off and then put Long up the middle with Mane pace on the break, especially in away games.

so you are saying you have seen It'd put in worst performances at our place before, that we didn't end up with 2 headless chickens up front , that our 12 m forward has trouble scoring and our keeper doesn't come for balls? Even Koeman said Long missed and that he intimated that FF was at fault. No drama there just fair assessment. You should wake in the morning and see the truth. We are all frustrated as we messed up, and missed a great opportunity. I have to face a load of patronising Man U fans this week telling me how unlucky we were etc, but laughing up their sleeves as they do

very true points

I think you should keep to your posts calling ' all men vile '

the truth hurts and so you throw childish insults. The performance Man U did tonight was the worst I have seen, and I saw them in their relegation season. It's all very easy to say we're 5th blah blah blah, but it was about tonight. A team in 5 th should have beaten that poor Utd side.

He can't even choose the right boots to use

We couldn't beat the worst Man U side I have seen in over 45 years of watching Saints. I think the club need to smash that black box as it produces more dunces than gems. I don't like picking on players but for a 10m pound keeper who doesn't come out of the 6 yard box to collect or kick the ball clear is poor. add to that having 2headless chickens up front and a 12 m non goal scorer ( I do like his endeavour though)

So Walsh is calling the Pompey fans clueless.lol

that bird who used to be on Eastenders had the same problem

How the people who let their dogs jump around their car, and I have seen them on the drivers lap when moving. ,

oh so fencing the goods then

Every delicious word Lol, im sure he must say to the other journos in the office, 'what shall i put today to make then on the Saintsweb laugh'

Yeah but the ball was still quite high ,it was not easy to keep down.

budgeting for 10th that is always going to happen. The team have done brilliantly so far. Nobody could expect to have a squad that can take so many injuries in the midfield

Make sure your overheads are manageable. The costs are there every week whether you are working or not. Is it retailing or skill based?
