[AlexLaw76]

HT

they look pretty good, lots of chances but we have defended well. We had a couple of very good chances, but missed them all.

Got away with one though

Larin offside almost every time 

Does he know the offside rule?

There's definitely a chance but it looks like one of those games where we've failed to take our chances in the first half and once Fulham start bringing on their first teamers in the second half, and Scienza comes off on the hour mark, Fulham will probably take the game by the scruff of the neck and win 2-0.

Good game plan against PL opposition (who you'd expect to have that bit more quality.)

We've certainly had chances on the counter. Most notably Scienza. But could really have done with even a half decent final ball on some others.

Needs to improve his finishing before anyone looks at him 

Way he's played today, apart from the miss suggests he can step. 

Would easily do well in Spain or Italy.

Does anybody these days ?

streams anyone? thanks

[SouSaint]

Good performance, shame about the lack of quality in the final 3rd to take advantage of the counter attacks though.

Not sure about that. He has a rare ability to cause teams problems with his dribbling, someone will take a gamble on him.

Feels like a missed opportunity that 1st half. Fulham will likely strengthen with subs in 2nd half.

Hope we don't 'roo our missed chances. 🙂

I would say this is on for us if we get a bit of luck and take our chances. Quite a few of our players standing up well to their level.

[adrian lord]

I thought the FA Cup was one of the "crown jewels" or some such twaddle the BBC kept or is that just the final?

[Chez]

they have had the ball and we've been pushed back, but we're cut them to ribbons on the break. disappointed not to be in front.

although he has mis-controlled a few times i have been impressed by larin. good physical presence and has given us an out ball.

[Saint NL]

Tnt seem upset that the goal was ruled out. The ref blew straight away so not sure what they're unhappy about

I think that’s the 2 million fans they had on southsea common.

Yeah, fucking idiots.

Chris Coleman, "it's only just rolling". Div.

In any case, their guy was in the area when it was taken, so presumably can't play the ball regardless.

It's really not a controversy.

When you think of the fees we blew jan23, bree was an absolute bargain at 850k. Really hope we don't lose him for free in the summer.

[obelisk]

Impressed with Saints breaking at speed so far in this game. Shame about the finishing though.

His crossing is so shit though.

Is it still half time. The clock on SSN appeared to show the match had reaching the 55th minute….!?

Perfect cross to scienza who mucked it up.

[saintant]

Fellows again has been lightweight and hardly involved. He's failed to grab another opportunity. Maybe replace with Edozie or Matsuki. Stewart is cleverer than Larin so would cause Fulham more issues. We've had our moments but failed to make the most of them. Fulham will probably bring on their big guns and win the game.

That was a cross to Larin which everyone went under. But for every decent cross, he Benalis one.

sometimes its really good, sometimes really bad. i think he usually has the right idea but the execution isnt always there.

[Saint NL]

Commentators just said Scienza has scored 3 out of 8 big chances for Saints. Not a great record tbf

[SNSUN]

100% this ends in a replay. In fact, I'm going to bet my house on it. 😄

 

COYS! Even if we get spanked by a big boy in the next round I would still love us to get through today.

Nice to have a player that gets themselves into 'big chance' situations in the first place for a change...

Compare to Fellows on the other side of the pitch that I'd forgotten was even playing today.....

[Sheaf Saint]

Larin looks like he's wearing lead boots sometimes.

Manning doing his usual backing off and leaving loads of room for their winger.

[Baird of the land]

They seem to have finally worked out to target our left hand side
