whelk Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Saints doing ok but all the cnts on here just want to have a go at Yoshida.
angelman Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Maybe we are playing better because there is more confidence coming from the back. And by back, I don't mean the defenders but the chap behind them.
whelk Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 And it is dangerous for McCarthy to be cheiwng
5string Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Nearly a pen, but why did Lingard turn away when he still had the ball? Silly boy (though good for us). We seem to be keeping possession a little better than at Spurs. Oh, then Boufal loses it by trying to beat the same player 4 times!
BotleySaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Another free header. What is the defence doing.
Convict Colony Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 god this irish commentator is so man u
lloydie Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 If Mkhitaryan could cross a ball we’d be 2-0 down i reckon.
SKD Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Saints doing ok but all the cnts on here just want to have a go at Yoshida. Probably because every cross that comes in, looks like they’re going to score.
skintsaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Looking like a matter of time at the moment, just hold out till HT...
carljack Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Just like the Wembley Final Romeau all over Pogba like a rash!
BotleySaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Really seeing the benefit of giving Boufal a run in the team now.
lloydie Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Boufal looking lively each time he gets the ball. Just need him in a position to shoot!
Heisenberg Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 On another day united would be 3 or 4 up here. So many free headers from close range We are riding our luck Doing ok compared to recent standards. Our normal clueless self in final 3rd Boufal decent but no movement around him
Saint Albert Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Really seeing the benefit of giving Boufal a run in the team now. He is so good running at defenders with the ball at his feet.
5string Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Em, why did Stephens get a yellow? Oh, "delaying the restart". Right. ???
whelk Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Probably because every cross that comes in, looks like they’re going to score. Most of you are too weak to watch football
Greenridge Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Really seeing the benefit of giving Boufal a run in the team now. Looks really lively. Worldy coming up!
igsey Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Just tuned in to a stream after listening to 5 Live w*nk over United for most of the first half. How are McCarthy and Boufal doing?
lloydie Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 He is so good running at defenders with the ball at his feet. Amazing he still gets so much stick from some fans, I get the stuff aimed at Redmond etc but it’s clear that Boufal makes things happen for us.
austsaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 If Mkhitaryan could cross a ball we’d be 2-0 down i reckon. Being opened up on their left flank.
adrian lord Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Just tuned in to a stream after listening to 5 Live w*nk over United for most of the first half. How are McCarthy and Boufal doing? Brilliant
davefoggy Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Can't honestly decide from the commentary if we have had a good half or not?? lol
Mr X Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Effort there today bar goals, we just don't have the fire power! Will surely go down with such a poor goal record without some serious Jan signings Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk
shurlock Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Comfortable half on the whole. United very ponderous in possession.
CB Fry Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 We're holding on like a third division side in an FA Cup tie.
5string Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 ManU getting nippy about supposed time wasting. 6 mins is up. Thank you, ref. HT 0-0
Chez Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 On another day united would be 3 or 4 up here. So many free headers from close range We are riding our luck Doing ok compared to recent standards. Our normal clueless self in final 3rd Boufal decent but no movement around himfair description of the first half.
Saint Albert Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Half time. The home crowd is frustrated. Decent first half that. Boufal and Long troubled the Man U defenders. Nice recovery for the team following the Boxing Day defeat.
Heisenberg Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 0-0 HT I'll take that. Bright start but then rode our luck a little. Feels like United could change gear at some stage and a single goal would kill us.
kermitsaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Lucky for us Man U have been pretty ordinary so far . If they could cross we would be behind Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk
Chez Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Can't honestly decide from the commentary if we have had a good half or not?? lol We are not losing, so from a results point of view it was good, but Boufal apart, we are not winning too many battles
obelisk Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Saints doing ok but pretty aimless in the attacking third as usual. Man U are bound to take one of their chances while Saints probably won't. Pumping long free kicks up to, well, Long doesn't seem like a good plan to me.
Heisenberg Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 United 1st goal a header from 5 yards out.... Odds?
Pamplemousse Posted 30 December, 2017 Author Posted 30 December, 2017 OK I guess Please get Gabbiadini on
5string Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Ok, overall a decent effort. Couple of chances for both teams. McCarthy done ok, Boufal looking good. Hoj getting in about about the ManU players, which they don't like. Long seems to be limping slightly. I'd only make 1 change: Tadic off, Gabbiadini on. 4-4-2
cloggy saint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 A lot of negativity here today, and given recent performances it's hardly surprising but that was a decent half from Saints. I'm sure most here would have taken 0-0 at half time.
austsaint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 We're a bit short on quality, but the effort is there. Hojbjerg in among it; Boufal looks a threat; McCarthy actually moves like a GK. Have to tighten up defensively on our right side ..Stephens, W/P being run over by Mkhit. Shaw and Rashford.
Pamplemousse Posted 30 December, 2017 Author Posted 30 December, 2017 United 1st goal a header from 5 yards out.... Odds? That is the main worry. We need to stop the crosses coming in the first place
warsash saint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Good performance so far. Not according to the usual spanners on here!!
mrfahaji Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 From BBC commentary/5 Live: "Mauricio Pellegrino has just had an extended chat with Sofiane Boufal. It is a fair bet the Southampton manager believes Boufal holds the key to unlocking the Manchester United defence." Probably telling him why he's being substituted at half time...
stknowle Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Most of you are too weak to watch football Top off, chest puffed out. STRONG enough to watch football.
Toadhall Saint Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Most of you are too weak to watch football [emoji23]
IOWSaintDaz Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 Great 1st half from us, We frustrated them all half and with Lukaku off there main threat is gone, feel alot more confident with Alex between the sticks too, Just need a bit more up top to get on the end of Boufal's wizardry gonna be a tough ask 2nd half as I expect Manure to improve but if we can show the same determination shown in the 1st half who knows we could just nick a point or 3 maybe
Katalinic Posted 30 December, 2017 Posted 30 December, 2017 That is the main worry. We need to stop the crosses coming in the first place Yep, other than that a decent away type performance so far.
Pamplemousse Posted 30 December, 2017 Author Posted 30 December, 2017 Man Utd haven’t played that well though. I’d take 0-0.
