Love it.

http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/20150514-toby-alderweireld-pre-southampton-aston-villa-2455876.aspx Just came up on the club website.

We were awful. Clyne was especially bad, these horrible floaty crosses he keeps attempting just waste any pressure we apply on the right wing. Mane needs to man up and stay on his feet more, he wasted a few good opportunities where if he'd just stood up in the challenge he might have created a chance. Pelle was like a bloody statue, never running onto passes, and when he did get the ball, he was back heeling it to nobody every time. Defence was shambolic for both goals, I don't think we appreciated just how important Forster was, running the back 4. Only positive for me was Harrison Reed. He looked like he wanted to be out there, was chasing Leicester like a rabid dog and really giving it his all. I really wasn't convinced by Koeman's substitutions at all, putting Long on the wing ALWAYS falls short - he's a direct runner, not someone to just float crosses in for 20 minutes. Crap performance, I can't see us getting any more points this season at this rate.

Say what you want about his ability, but Gazzaniga has to be one of the best looking players in the league!

I've always been a defender of Steven Davis, but he has been absolutely woeful today. No justification for his place on the pitch, he's really struggling.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS

Fonte or Bertrand for me, both have been absolutely outstanding.

I think he's 6'2"? Not exactly a small guy.

I thought Hull came out incredibly strongly and it shook us up a bit. I don't think the players were expecting to get hounded so aggressively after Shlong's chance in the first minute by a team trying to avoid relegation. Ron sorted it out at half time, and after the penalty everyone relaxed and demonstrated a really solid performance. I think we're discrediting Hull by callings ourselves crap in the first half - I think they made us look crap.

We've been robbed.

I really like that Paraguay kit.

Might as well have been a loss. Terrible.

Djuricic has arrived at the club, Tadic looked pleased to see him.

Absolutely, I think all our players have completely outperformed any preconceptions. They're just victims of our own expectations now, we're so used to seeing them play so well, when they **** up, some fans get irrationally upset!

I want to say however, I don't think he's played badly at all, I think he gets poorly refereed, because he's the same size as most centre backs and refs seem to think its ok just to leave him to fend for himself while he's getting seven bells kicked out of him every week, and combined with playing in every PL match this season so far, I think he's exhausted!

I think for the amount of money we pay professional footballers these days a bit of criticism when they're under performing isn't going to hurt anybody. If I got paid that much in my job, I'm pretty sure my employers would expect the absolute best!

Completely agree, Tadic remained totally anonymous again.

Are you sure we're thinking about the same Benteke here?

Born in the Princess Anne, Southampton, lived in Winchester since then and, supported Saints since I was old enough to know what football was.

WE DID IT!

Prowsey at RB, who'd have thunk it

Gardos is looking really good right now.

MANNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEE

Someone's stuck a rocket up Mane's arse!
