Liverpool 2-1 Saints - Match Thread

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Whose this keeper playing for us? He can actually save the ball.

[DrSuess1979]

Really tight Jeeze 

he was a yard off ffs 

good save again by AMcA

[Suhari]

Save Macca. Again.

Baz concedes both of them.

[Sheaf Saint]

A save at the near post from Macca.

Isak was offside but no VAR.

[coalman]

McCarthy saving at his near post ... whatever next.

Nice to see the officials let Liverpool's offside move continue.

[skintsaint]

Linesman doing their best here..

[Toussaint]

We could be 2-0 down, that’s the difference when a keeper actually saves shots.

Offside but not given. Save by McCarthy.

Lino forgot there's no VAR 🙄

[Toussaint]

Foul on Downes, don’t get those decisions up there though 

[RedArmy]

McCarthy has got his weaknesses but he absolutely has to start in the league from here on out. 

[captainchris]

McCarthy so much better that Buzuno

[Saint Fan CaM]

Lovely move.

I genuinely think this happens these days when they're so used to not flagging instantly.

[Colinjb]

A lot of free space on the left......

[tdmickey3]

Would be 2 down if we had bag of crisps in goal

Wide open that side when we press and win the ball back

[Saint NL]

A goalkeeper that can make saves ✅

Now to find a striker that scores goals

[hypochondriac]

I've seen enough. This team should play Saturday. Absolutely miles better. Bin off Stephens, THB, wee man.

[Sheaf Saint]

Chelsea losing at Lincoln!

Did Twaterface just say Fellows is not available tonight....he is listed as being on the bench according to the BBC?

[LiberalCommunist]

Energy energy press. Where has this come from?

100% 

But I doubt Still is strong minded  enough to do so...

[Harry_SFC]

Barring a very poor second half I wouldn't mind seeing the same team on Saturday 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Fantastic block from Wood.

I hate 532, but this looks miles better. Wood does not deserve to be dropped at all. We all know Armstrong is decent in this league coming from wide....

[trousers]

Wood my MotM so far

[Saint NL]

Great block by Wood 

[Sheaf Saint]

That's an outstanding block by Wood.

[The Kraken]

Desire from a centre back. Forgot what that looks like.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Nearly 0-1.

[trousers]

Archer close!!

[AlexLaw76]

Great cross from Manning. nearly an own goal

[macca155]

Ooooh

Not sure if you have the means to stream bbc sounds through your music system, but I’ve managed to get bbc solent synced with itv just because of twatterface it is bliss !

He’s been a huge upgrade tonight and vs rather stronger opponents too.

[Saint NL]

Unlucky archer

[obelisk]

Archer needed to just get a touch on that cross.

[adrian lord]

Archer is gonna be class. 

[The Kraken]

Archer has to score. Or at least make contact.

[trousers]

Don't like these high floaty outswinging corners 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Jelert is having an outstanding game.

[Saint NL]

We look.....good?

If this is the plan for the rest of the season then we can all be happy

Mads will be back up shortly.

I’d be slightly cautious on making judgements after half an hour against a Liverpool team who’ve made eleven changes. Whilst their reserves are still far better than us on paper, they’ve looked disjointed as a unit, not dissimilar to our own performance against Pompey.

That said I’d probably give Quarshie or Wood, Jelly and AA a start against Boro.

[bpsaint]

Who is this team breaking and trying to get the ball forward, absolutely chalk and cheese compared to the side that played Saturday

[Maggie May]

Matterface with a disasterclass in commentary.

Puel was our manager in the semi final win at Anfield, not Hasenhuttl.

Fellows isn’t unavailable tonight - he’s on the bench.

Square pegs in square holes for a change. OK we will lose this game and maybe get well beaten but finally, finally this has shown us we have some shoots that we can build on. Armstrong has to play in his best position, Wood has to play, Scienza looks interesting, Jander further forward is a good idea. Stephens and THB should be dropped with Armstrong captain imo.

He did play for WBA in an earlier round but there's a new ruling this season on transfers that enable him to be eligible tonight.

[coalman]

Manning turns back. Again
