Another mistake by the keeper!! what is he doing coming out all the time

Rickie should be given the same role as Rooney where he drops a bit deeper,the last few games I have seen him he likes to drift out wide,what is the point in that if you have nobody in the box?? this is why I would like to see Mayuka as the ST with Gaston and RL behind him. If not then RL has to stay up front and in the box and no drifting out wide Cork Morgan Davis/JWP/AL Lambert Ramirez Mayuka

Ricky drifting out to the wing when he should of been in the middle was my only criticism,thought we looked solid with Cork back,definitely gives us something to build on

Obvious troll,some of the posts on here are hilarious,if it was up to some of you lot we would ask the FA to drop out of the league and sell Gaston in January,if we get relegated he will be off in the summer anyway

I personally would have Lambert as a CF/CAM,I know I will get laughed at but he seems to be dropping deeper and deeper and likes to drift to the left side,J-Rod up front on his own For me my team would be Gazza/Boruc Clyne Fonte Maya Fox Cork/Davis Morgan Lallana Lambert Gaston J-rod I dont see the point in playing wingers/wide men when we clearly do not have anyone to do the job apart from Puncheon,we should try and play to our strengths

I am in the uk this weekend and I am taking my son to his first ever prem game,he doesn't even want to go as he says and I quote "what's the point you will get thrashed" I have been trying to get him to support saints but he is having none of it and like the rest of his glory hunting mates supports Man U I feel if we can get a win I can sway him that we are the greatest team ever So I am going for a 2-0 saints win

All those teams knew when to get stuck in and win by any means,we just do not seem to have that kind of mental toughness about us. The Southampton way is a great way of playing football only when teams let you play that way,in the prem yo duo not get the time unless you have world class players,which we dont

After winning b2b promotions quite comfortably do you think the club genuinely believed we had the players to have a good crack of the premiership? I know a lot of people on here believed we were top half contenders with the squad we had,I just wonder if the club were naive enough to think the same?

Rafa Benitez??? would be surprised if he would come here

Ok I got it wrong,I was aware we were not playing 433.in my moment of rage/disbelief I typed that,even still no matter what we played tonight it didnt work and has not worked all season

It is getting boring now,we are all armchair managers but we all say this 433 is not working? but yet we play it week after week.It clearly is not working,we should try and find a formation that suits are players!! I believe that NC is pulling all the strings,he is like a poor mans Abramovich But what baffles me is why we didnt make changes as soon as we went 2-0 down,put Punch and Mayuka on the wings and have a go,why wait another 15 mins??

How come we have the most Un-Brazillian Brazillian to ever grace the game?

Can anyone remember the last time we played "The Southampton way"? Or do you think we have been found out ? Or do you thin we are just crap?

Mayuka has the touch of a baby elephant.

All those saying get behind the team and manager,how long do you say we give them? its a results business and there is no room for loyalty and sentiment anymore,we are not getting results and we are becoming a laughing stock. We may well get parachute payments but the TV revenue next season is much much bigger,and with the money we have spent can we afford to drop back down? and even if we do we have no chance of keeping our top players

Someone needs to tell NA he can make subs if he wants!!! maybe he thinks we are winning 2-0

Your going down with the Villa. sums it all up really

We went 442 1st half against Spurs and got torn apart,why o why did we do it again.

Gaston looks well off the pace,bring on Mayuka imo

Jeez,we have turned into long ball merchants

If we are adamant we are going to play 433 we need a decent winger and a attacking left back Matty Phillips for the winger and abroad for a full back

LOL,Good luck to any team that wants to buy our first team players in Jan,can you imagine NC letting them go ?? Jan market is notoriously inflated as it is,no doubt he would want at least £10mill up front for SRL

Do we really need this though? I would rather we were a established prem team before we went for "cups", you run the risk of getting a needless injury to a top player,you see how we are playing against Leeds these are our back up players for when the first xi get injured,and they do not seem to be doing a good job of it so far,I am glad they are playing now instead of a prem team in the league I

Adkins will not be sacked as it seems apparent that NC wants "yes" man The Carling cup is a inconvenience cup for a majority of prem teams Elland rd is notoriously difficult to get a result from We are playing a saints team that are fringe players,some of them even struggled to get in our championship team I don't know what people expect from this game? I am a realist,I never expected us to get anything from it,Leeds know we are a club that are there for the taking

Clyne was in a standing position,Bale had the momentum it was always going to be Bales ball
