Southampton match thread

[Shaggy]

No way can we be as bad as that in the 2nd half.

[brightred]

Lovren is so bad.

Sterling is not a striker.

Markovic is not a defender.

[Chris]

I think both are probably true. Elia getting in behind was probably the one moment of their making. We've come close to gifting them a number of goals though with our defensive dullardry.

From our pov we need to look to correct that rather than rely on their continued ****ness in final third. Plus try to get some sort of grip on the midfield.

Yeah I cant pretend I'm not nervous, especially with Lovren on a yellow in these conditions! I dont think we've done too bad overall but we do look like it could be one of them games where we do something daft and concede 5 in 10 minutes!

Markovic off for Moreno. Toss Lovren off and put on Toure. And Sturridge on for Sterling. That should sort out any issues.

We cannot afford to be. The ref will give the first decent shout for a Southampton penalty once he sees the decisions he made at half time.

[danperkins]

Schneiderlin coming on

See I commented in his thread that he needs a shag. Now you are suggesting someone tosses him off. Its definitely sexual.

Nervous understating it a bit you reckon? I'd sooner have Biscan there

Schneiderlin coming on for them...

[Gazzla]

Get Toure and Moreno on, chuck Lovren off a cliff

[RichC]

Hey, I never said its a performance for the ages, but its not just the defence that isn't working out there.

I think it stems from the defence though the panic that seems to be there at the moment

[Robbie-9-Fowler]

Schneiderlin coming on could be a problem for us, more control and it might shackle our best player on the day Coutinho. We need to adapt or wait until the inevitable happens.

[Red Wino]

Moreno on for Marko

[danperkins]

Weather is atrocious

[Exiled_red]

Moreno on for Markovic

[Red_Polo]

No changes for us at half time

Moreno for Markovic
