pap Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Superb second half. Get a superstar up front tomorrow, NC.
latter day saint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 a game of 2 halves ! so proud of 2nd half performance
Avenue Saint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I have never seen Manchester utd BATTERED like that all half at old Trafford before by ANY team. Something very very special is brewing here! Viva Southampton!!!!
LaptopSaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 If that second half is the new Pochettino pressing style it's going to be ****ing brilliant. Great second half, if we'd had our shooting boots with us we'd have had a point at least. Well played lads.
Hatch Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I have never seen Manchester utd BATTERED like that all half at old Trafford before by ANY team. Something very very special is brewing here! Viva Southampton!!!! Man City last year
MOSaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 We were bloody good second half, unlucky not to get at least a point we battered them.
Leicestersaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Well done saints - we looked as good as they did - but we had so much possession and didn't score which is worrying.
aintforever Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Played well second half, can't believe Lallana didn't shoot.
S-Clarke Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Meh about Reading. If we play like we did today in our remaining games, we'll finish miles ahead of them. We're so much better than them it's unreal.
davefoggy Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 what a weird feeling...a defeat that feels like a victory well done lads
alpine_saint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Man u 46% Saints 54% possession, never thought i would ever see that statistic. Jesus. Really ? Well done lads, made Ferguson and co sh*t themselves. Nice one. After tonight, we shouldnt fear anyone.
Webby Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I have never seen Manchester utd BATTERED like that all half at old Trafford before by ANY team. Something very very special is brewing here! Viva Southampton!!!! I agree, but unfortunately we still didn't really create any gilt edged chances. Only thing missing really, from that half.
BotleySaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Reading achieving what we cannot seem to achieve. Goals when it matters.
Colinjb Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I bet Mark Lawrenson gives us no credit whatsoever on MOTD tonight.
VectisSaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Still makes your point incorrect though. We played ****e against Wigan then outplayed Man U. Next time you want to make a dig at someone for taking a positive out of a likely defeat get your facts straight.. Sorry, who pulled your chain. ****.
studentsaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Reading did what we couldn't. Didn't see this coming but points dropped for us. Second half brilliant pressing high up the pitch, which pochettino is known for. But scared to shoot and wasted opportunities with so many players committed forward at times.
Jimmy_D Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Twice now we've got less than we deserve against Utd. Bloody good performance though.
AussieDog Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Oh well... better head off to work now. Was worth being late though - First half I thought we were going to get battered....2nd half we played like the team at the top of the League. Awesome second half. If ever you could take a moral victory from a defeat this was it. Now we have to take the 2nd half form to Wigan on Saturday and get 3 points. COYR!
S-Clarke Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Reading achieving what we cannot seem to achieve. Goals when it matters. Eh?
stug76 Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Excellent 2nd half, just need that little bit of quality up front to make the difference.
SaintRobbie Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Fergie was bloody worried at the end of that. Saints looked great. Proud of them and our fans in Manchestaar. If we keep playing like this we'll finish mid table!
Bearsy Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 That's the second time we've played United deserved a draw and got nowt. Bastards.
bpsaint Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Can't believe Man Utd have had all 6 points off us this season, ****ers.
DT Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Excellent performance but shame JRod so naive to commit the foul they scored from. Mystifying playing Fox, who destabilised the defence. An sometimes we need to be more direct/get our shooting boots on.
trousers Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Reading achieving what we cannot seem to achieve. Goals when it matters. Yeah, you'd never see us coming back from 2-0 down vs Chelsea....
Chez Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 outstanding display in the second half. Just didn't quite have enough in the final third, but boy did we dominate posession. United were hoofing it, desperate and pretty much hanging on at the end.
Elias Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I hope Le Fondre gets injured soon. Reading are such a lucky team. At least Saints gave it a go.
Graffito Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 I bet Mark Lawrenson gives us no credit whatsoever on MOTD tonight. Already happened on 5Live. So far, he and the commentator, McNamara is it, going on about how sloppy Manu were.
qwertySFC Posted 30 January, 2013 Posted 30 January, 2013 Another decent striker makes this team I think - its all we need
