Overriding emotion from that half has to be frustration........that game should be done, finished, zipped up and on the coach back to Southampton. The 2nd half shouldn't have to be a contest...but some how, we've let them back into it! The 1st half was a masterclass from us, but we really, really, really needed to make more of that, as were so much better than them at stages in that game.

 

Tricky 2nd half coming up.

Excellent 1st half performance, shame about conceding a goal as we really didn't deserve that at all. Fully expect us to comfortably see this one out, but as this is Saints, you just never know. Very enjoyable game to watch though

Outrageous that we did not do a Cardiff. Great finish from Lovren and Rodriguez but Jay should've scored at least another one, far too many good chances missed.

 

If we start powerfully again and get a third goal then that's that.

The Southampton Way- dominate most of our matches but we never finish them off... Again, seriously hope today isn't the case.

 

We need a more ruthless streak. We look quietly confident, but you get the impression we need a bit more of an arrogance about us. We still play like a confident underdog rather than a cock-out, swaggering champion. Ready not just to win, but to beat the opponent.

 

Fergie's United were probably the best example of a team that knew how to assert themselves this way, without ever slipping into complacency. Teams would go to Old Trafford, go a goal or two down and be desperate to get off the pitch and for it all to be over.

 

We're not deadly yet. The JRod chance at 1-0 summed that up.

I don't think Rickies was easy . The ball was running away from him it was good to get the shot in the follow up player should have been quicker

 

come on, for a top prem striker, he has to work the keeper from there

No Osvaldo, Ramirez or Wanyama. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

Yeah i mean it must be a conspiracy, it's not like Osvaldo is banned from the Newcastle game, Wanyama is injured and Rameriz is on the bench. Jesus some of our fans are dins.

Got a feeling this will be a bit of a backs to the wall 2nd half if we don't get an early 3rd goal, which is a bit of a travesty given how good we've been.

Not looking for negatives, just an observation, RL not looking happy.

no one is having a go, just stating a fact that striker wishing to go to brazil should work the keeper from 10 yards out

im sure he agrees

In a local pub in a village near Portsmouth and I think it's a 4 pint job.. Compliments for the first goal from a couple of pompey fans who went off to their match. No idea who they're playing.. Good football but id prefer a 2 goal margin.

 

Early on in the game I had a moment of panic when I thought I should be at st marys: we looked like the home team and Sunderland come for a point...

Maybe me but I am not seeing Lambert involved in goal celebrations!

 

Allegedly the club have accepted the 7 million bid from west him and ricky wants to talk to them! could be just paper talk though

Posted
Would agree that Lambert looks a little subdued today, but still playing well enough.

 

Hm. There's always a bittersweet twinge of "yay we scored but why do those never fall for me?" if you're a striker going through a goal drought.

 

Saints looking very shakey at the moment. So much riding on the next goal and Sunderland very obviously feel like they're playing on a complete freeroll, whilst we're playing to win something that we know should have been ours anyway.
