Southampton Post Match Thoughts

[flourbasher]

Game started with a cringeworthy Bachelor Boy and went downhill from there.

Mind you according to the BBC:-

Their 16th loss of the season means Rotherham, facing Southampton in the league for the first time since the 1965-66 campaign, have now won just once in their last 18 games and are 12 points adrift of 21st-placed Huddersfield.

So our 1-1 draw back in October is null and void and we have to play them again

If a professional journalist has written that their respective employer need to give them some simpler tasks to do

Like sticking them in a barrel and telling them to piss in the corner

Let`s be honest,it could have been a lot worserer,they are a very good team,but probably only the 3rd or 4th best I`ve seen,so crap really !
The same pattern as the last few games,we look a lot more solid(Which is nice),but we have absolutly no attacking intent at all,our only chance of getting in the final third was a full back that wasn`t apparently any good.
It`s great not getting hammered by good teams,but we at least need to have a couple of shots in game to win one,I was really hoping that the 2 midfielders he`s fetched in,might get us the pitch a bit,but that`s unlikely in the dug out.
At the very least we should be starting with 2 up front at home,we`ve got to win some games,VERY SOON,otherwise we are f*cked,surely today`s game was a free hit,give it a bloody go man.
Well done to PK,Revan,and Vik,jelly-legs Hugill really gets on my tits,please play somebody else.....anybody.
The bit I said above about not getting hammered,well next week I fear just that,thank God they`ve priced us out of going.

First of all Southampton are a very good side but we set up to not get hammered just like we did at Fulham.Substitutions shocking.I honestly can’t see us winning another game.Our only consolation this season will to finish above Wendies.Why bring Eaves on in the 88th min & go two up front when for me we should have done that at half time.

Rathbone was simply dreadful today. He has been honking for months .

All complete surrender chumps...why bother even playing if they aren't even going to try to go forwards instead of waving the white flag like they did today ! If you are expected to lose then at least just go out there and have a bloody go ,if you lose you lose I can accept that but to just basically go out to try and keep the score down when the situation is what it is...what is the point, we need wins not draws and we won't win anything if we don't change what we are doing

[Grist_To_The_Mill]

Point for debate:-

Their winger was offside in lead up to their second goal ??

[Cebuman]

It makes no difference if he was offside or not ,they only needed one to go in and they had 3 points...easy when the team your playing isn't interested in taking you on like Rotherham did today

How you are allowed on here after what you said to Cam Miller is beyond me.
You should be embarrassed.

Gulf in resources painfully exposed.

Without Vik we would’ve been well and truly mullered - like so many other games so far this season. They are Premier class in waiting and we are like a workmanlike, toothless L1 mid table side - complete mis-match.

The only question is not if, but when our season is over - will not go to the wire this time.

We just don’t look like we’ll win another game this season - the odd draw will be our ‘little victory’ for the remaining games. Heaven help us next week…..

Agree,we seem to have gained a few new posters that are in the same mind.
