Hmmm, watched it on saints player. I am still not 100% certain he meant it! He just seemed too surprised that it went in. If he did mean it, top draw though. That said, he had one hell of a game so maybe I should cut him some slack?

 

The first was a cross/poor keeping, the second he meant, as there wasn't anyone in a position for him to cross to.

But it was a high, hanging ball and if it had not swerved Lallana may well have got there in time to challenge for the ball (he is on the edge of the box when Chamberlain hits it).

As much as I want to believe it was deliberate, it seems a touch of hit and hope. It's almost as if it was such a good hit, I can't believe it was intended. Watching the highlights, I was trying to see if he looked up but couldn't see it. If it was deliberate, it was a ******* hell of a hit.

 

Will his first be given as a keeper own goal? I flaming hope not.

A Lambert flick off a long goal kick from Davis, then Lallana beating one man and pulling it back for Barnard to tap in?

 

I can't be arsed to get into an argument about little details. That 3rd goal was the best goal because we flowed as a team. The best performance i've ever seen from a Saints team was when we destroyed Spurs at St Marys 4-0 as a team. That goal was a little sign that we are heading in the direction of being able to play like that at this level. For that reason it gave me a lot of hope for what is to come.

I have got to be honest. When I saw the first one, I though it was a mis-placed cross and it was just luck it went in. When I saw his second, I immediatly changed my opinion as once could be luck, but twice is by design. And I'll bet he does it again! and again!

Anyway goals like that against a rubbish keeper such as Dagenham's don't count for very much on the global scale. Do it against a reasonable keeper...yep, goal of the season candidate, against that clown they had, well it probably ranks with the Southampton Schools 5 a side candidates.

Their keeper put the first one in trying to turn it over the bar.If he hadn't touched it it wouldn't have gone straight in although I think we had someone following up.

As far as I can see they were both meant as crosses, and the lad was very lucky. The keeper is out of position too, too close to the front stick. Same with Fonte's goal, from a cross he should have caught. It was a bit like having 12 men, hence Adkins was being realistic and knows we have to improve. Barnard's goal was very well taken.
