Horrible isn’t it. Not a voice made for commentary at all. Actually makes me miss Dean Hammond and his ultra saints tinted glasses.

Sounds like Borat

Smallbone to come back.

I'm obviously assuming Aribo and Smallbone leave. If it doesn't happen we're hoping we don't get ravished by injuries or suspensions or we're using youth. A loanee CM would be low risk and provide cover. Jander, Downes and Charles will be a good 3 to have, I just think the fact Sesay didn't get on the bench today when we had no other CMs on there may show Still thinks he's not ready to make the step up. We'll see. Should be a lot of action over the next two days.

Clearly got a good eye for a forward pass or a through ball. Looks to be a great addition.

Got a feeling that from this position it's going to be an all too familiar outcome.

[Saint NL]

Been a bit sloppy the last few mins.

Watford building up a head of steam

I asked AI for you…

Finn Azaz has played in 1 game so far for Southampton in the current 2025-26 EFL Championship season and has not yet scored any goals or registered any assists.

Hope this helps! 😃

 

[adrian lord]

[obelisk]

Still can't quite shake off Russball.

THB gets his usual yellow...

Needs to get Downes for him as well as he's not playing

[OttawaSaint]

FFS!

[Mr X]

That was definitely coming 

[Viking Saint]

Foul on Manning or slip??

[Disco Stu]

Not taken our chances earlier in the game.

[SouSaint]

Fucking woeful. We cannot defend and as usual, the first shot on target goes in. 

[AlexLaw76]

First shot on target, Bazunu concedes 

[Saint NL]

It was coming

[OttawaSaint]

Similar to two chances we had. 

[Saint Scott]

The fuck is manning doing

[macca155]

Could sense that coming

[O_Lord_Marian]

Manning, waste of space

[bpsaint]

That was coming for ages, Still should have acted sooner. Questions over Baz once more. 

[Osvaldorama]

We may as well not have a goalkeeper 

 

He’s absolutely fucking useless 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Manning's tactic of falling over seemingly not enough to stop an opponent running on and thumping a shot. 

[adrian lord]

oh no

[Saint NL]

Tessem reckons Bazunu should save that

[obelisk]

Well it had seemed more likely than a Saints 2nd. 1-1. What happened to Manning there?

[bugenhagen]

Yeah, Bazunu is not a problem...

[Colinjb]

Ok, we go again.

Not sure there’s much he can do with that 

[B Rabbit]

Shouldn’t be scoring from that angle. Piss poor

[SNSUN]

Work still to be done. Respect the point.

[Sunglasses Ron]

Baah!

Once again, unable to get a clean sheet. Always a real issue for us.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Expect to see a lot more intensity form us now. We've not been at the levels we should be. 

[Saint86]

Tessem's bias here is laughable. Manning goes over, looks up to see if he's got a foul, hasn't, holds his face. Striker takes an early shot and leathers it far post under no pressure and with the whole goal to aim at - Tessem blames bazunu. Hilarious.

Left whole far side wide open. Weak.

[BARCELONASAINT]

Jo Tessem is an absolute bellend sometimes, that shot was absolutely leathered low into the opposite corner. You cannot put that down to Baz ffs!
