Secret Site Agent Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Who would have thunk it. F king great come back Celebrate
igsey Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Well we haven't come back from behind to win 'at home' since 2012.... Not happening today. Thanks!!
JxgrSaint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Just amazing - the one downside is that my vocal cords are shredded from celebrating and I've got a job interview tomorrow
Plumstead_Saint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 That's the most excited I've ever seen Ron. 0 goals in 20, then a penalty miss and 2 goals in 1. Who'd a thunk it?
obelisk Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Ranks with the 3-3 from 3-0 down at the Dell all those years back. Went more direct 2nd half to counter their midfield pressing style. Worked wonderfully well.
trousers Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 I'd like to dedicate this win to Alpine. He played a blinder on the match thread
nta786 Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Thanks!! I shall take the credit and have my 'trousers' moment Also to top it off guys- our U21s beating Liverpool U21s away from home 5-0!
Shance Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Absolutely buzzing. I'll hold my hands up. After the first half I lost my cool a bit but Mane had a good game overall. Wanyama was an absolute beast when he came on. That's the reason I wanted him to start. Bossed it. Absolutely ecstatic. Mad how much a game of football came swing your mood!!!!!!!!!!!
Pamplemousse Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 That first half though was one of the worst all season. Which makes the win and the second half performance all the more beautiful
trousers Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 I shall take the credit and have my 'trousers' moment Also to top it off guys- our U21s beating Liverpool U21s away from home 5-0! Including a JRod hattrick.... happy days
melmacian_saint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Amazing stuff!!! COYS Probably the best 2nd half in St.Mary's existence.
whitenred Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Liverpool fan here in Pattaya getting consoled.... Love it [emoji1][emoji1][emoji1][emoji1][emoji1] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
hasper57saint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 The spring has sprung And Saints have won The Scousers are bereft Who gives a toss for their latest loss The Flopp is all that's left. I'm so smug at the moment because all the doubting Thomas's had us written off. City to beat Manure by two clear goals and we're up to sixth.
Cheam Saint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Great performance, but we took advantage of Liverpool tiring late in the game. Klopp hasn't yet realised that you can't play a high press in March when you're playing two games in a week. Take nothing away from us though. Love it!
Jarakka Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 I quit watching after they went 2-0 up, but to be fair we never make comebacks, especially against Liverpool! Feels so, so good. Another shot at Europa next season?
Jai27 Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Wanyama was incredible. I'm not usually a bad winner, but I'll make a special occasion because it's the scousers so... F**k you Lallana, and f**k you Liverpool Hope you all enjoyed your day out at St. Mary's.
Plastic Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Incredible. Can't wait to goad all the pool loving numpties at work tomorrow. Off to laugh at RAWK now..
Saint Without a Halo Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 a city win and we go above united but I'll take a draw from this one to leave a cheeky champions league place open Now who says Wanyams can be replaced easily? And at last Mane is back!
goneawol Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 ✔ @OptaJoe 1 - Liverpool lost a game in which they were leading by 2+ goals at half time for the first time in PL history (W112 D3). Shellshocked.
igsey Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Excellent excellent result, full of positives. - We got a penalty! Wow! - Mane and Pelle with three wonderful goals, Wanyama and van Djik outstanding - I hate Liverpool. Love beating them! - Lallana didn't score, Lovren was sh*t, Koeman > Klopp - JRod with a hattrick for the U21s - My last ever shift in retail!
Pamplemousse Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Incredible. Can't wait to goad all the pool loving numpties at work tomorrow. Off to laugh at RAWK now.. They're rather gracious on RAWK. Say we deserved the win and are fuming with their own team's performance. http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=326786.0
Saint Charlie Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 1. Wanyama is our best central midfielder. Romeu and Clasie too slow against the better sides. Clasie still doesnt dominate the game enough hence why he keeps being subbed. 2. Mane was always going to return to form at some stage. Despite all the doubters he is quality, a player with atttributes usually only the real top sides have. 3. Hopefully results like these show Koeman that progression is possible. 4. The Long/Lovren incident not as clear cut as many thought. Long cut right across Lovren, what he is the defender meant to do? Long does have a habit of buying fouls and going down easily, it probably counts against him with referees. 5. With a virtually fully fit squad and some shaky teams above us, we probably dont have a better chance to beat 7th place. Every other time we have put ourselves into a good position we have ****ed up so lets see what happens next.
NewYorkSaint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Here's a philosophical question. If you knew we were going to win, would you welcome a first half when you're 2 goals down? I would. There's no thrill in football like the thrill of that kind of roy-of-the-rovers comeback. So so happy for Mane. During most of his dry spell, he's still shown brilliant touches. I think he's (mostly) been unlucky and sometimes badly served. The confidence of him and Pelle, plus that of the whole team, going into the final games, is going to be huge for us. For one thing, we now KNOW that we can come back. No need for heads to drop if an early goal goes in. Anyway, a game to lodge in the memory banks for all time.
SNSUN Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 This is the epitome of why a 2-0 scoreline is dodgy. Fantastic win. I was at work for most of the game, and driving home at 1-2 when the last 2 goals went in. Nearly crashed the new car when Mané got his second. Great to see Pellé and Mané back in amongst the goals. Get Austin and JRod back and firing and we look seriously blessed up front again. Shame the season is not far off completion. Is Europe a step too far? I think the Leicester result will define that.
Pamplemousse Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 It's normally at this stage we fade away but we're picking up form at exactly the right time. We need 13 points from our last 7 games to equal our 60 points from last season.
Plastic Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 They're rather gracious on RAWK. Say we deserved the win and are fuming with their own team's performance. http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=326786.0 Boo that's no fun However, nice fact... 1 - Liverpool lost a game in which they were leading by 2+ goals at half time for the first time in PL history (W112 D3). Shellshocked.
austsaint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 The win against Chelsea back in early October was pretty damn good, but this is the most special win of the season, maybe many seasons. To turn around that dismal first half was magnificent and Ron deserves credit for his half time changes. Mane and Wanyama changed everything - Mane igniting our attack and bringing Pelle back into the game after his abject first half. Vic provided the defensive shield and aura Clasie couldn't. So pleased to see Mane turn things round; he's a joy to watch in full flight and provides so much spark to the team. Mane and Wanyama may both go in the Summer, but they are the calibre of player we desperately need to hold on to. Martina had a surprisingly good game; Davis had a lively second half and a special mention for JWP, he really put in an effort in that last 20 minutes and his press high up the field led to the magnificent Pelle strike. What a day.

Chalkboy Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 F*ck f*ck f*ck...missed the whole game due to DIY heard it was 2 nil and felt like crying, just checked and can't believe it!!! Feel like crying again. Amazing. Well done lads well done. Beer beer beeeer here I come. Hahaha!! Love it!!
nta786 Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Boo that's no fun However, nice fact... they dropped a two goal lead this season against Sunderland too didn't they? perfect day.
pangy Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Both Mane goals.come from him taking up central positions,he is without a doubt more effective playing there instead of the wing
Highfield Saint Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 They're rather gracious on RAWK. Say we deserved the win and are fuming with their own team's performance. http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=326786.0 More gracious than we are for sure. Change the thread title - makes us look small time.
niceandfriendly Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Need a video of Koeman's celebration for the 3rd!
stknowle Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 What a feckin' win. Who saw that coming at half time, certainly not me. We simply do not come back from 2 goals down and win, so satisfying that it happened against them. GTFI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nta786 Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Top 4 games of the season so far: 1) today 2) 4-0 vs Arsenal 3) 3-1 at Stamford Bridge 4) 1-0 at Old Trafford
SaintBobby Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 When was the last time we were 2 goals down with 30 mins to go and win? Brilliant.
Saxon Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Please please please can we persuade this man to sign another contract. It is a joy to have him at the club. We could really make something of it, consistent top 8s are hard to achieve, and if we keep it up, maybe we'll get Europa every other season or something. Would be great. Love having him as our manager and he brings so much! Its a real pleasure to have a manager this invested in the club again! You can see what it means to him.
Shance Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 ✔ @OptaJoe 1 - Liverpool lost a game in which they were leading by 2+ goals at half time for the first time in PL history (W112 D3). Shellshocked. Is this actually true?
Saints Fan Dan Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Was is it worth the previous defeats in order to experience today? I think so. Lallana and Dejan "My head is at Liverpool, Southampton have no ambition", who the fück is laughing now?
SaintAndy14 Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Wow! Almost speechless! So proud to be a Saints fan after that incredible comeback. Keeps our season well and truly alive and the morale high going into the annoying international break!
Chez Posted 20 March, 2016 Posted 20 March, 2016 Poetry in motion tra la la la la... ...loved watching Koemen troll Klopp by running down the touchline to celebrate with players, although tentatively as he had his shoes on and didn't want to slip ass over tit.
