Saints v Arsenal (A) Match Thread

Ref didn’t help us one bit there. Shouldn’t have lost that game, but yet again not good enough at the back.

 

Play like that against Swansea and Leicester we should pick up 6 points.

 

Go again next week.

We deserved to win that, but that means nothing at the end of the day, we got no points. With the other teams picking up the odd point around us has been terrible for us this weekend. There's still plenty of time to get points but it's not looking good. That was a decent performance against an Arsenal side who weren't at the races, but we still lost. It's starting to look ominous.

Taking yoshi off was a mistake that cost us. Should have been Stephens.

 

He's a young lad who needs games to develop. But yoshi is the better player and we can't afford to train Stephens this run in.

 

Fortunately he has been sent off. I honestly expect our defence to improve immeasurably.

One of the best performances and **** all to show for it. Gutting.

thats how I feel. Thought we created more decent chances today than we have for months. Great fight in midfield and decent threat going forward. The third goal though is just painful. Weak as **** at the back post. Cedric's lack of size means he is brushed out the way, shame as he had his best game for ages.

Both their first goals were lucky as f*ck, Aubameyang completely miss hits it and it bobbles under Cedric, then Wellbeck's weak shot that was going straight down the middle deflects over the keeper.

 

Deserved to win that, just a shame this performance couldn't have happened last week.

 

Oh and the Ref basically gave them four free kicks to every one we had, Arsenal committed about 15 fouls that they completely got away.

Much better passion & performance generally.

Still we are going down as defensively we are a shambles. Cedric may have been good going forward today but he was a nightmare defensively.

All this season we've shown a complete inability to hang onto any sort of lead

That was very much a game we should have got a point out of against a weakened arsenal team.

MOM: Long

Stephens shirt was ripped in two. Arse we’re getting away with shirt pulling, pushes in the back and little kicks after challenges all game. Horrid little team, hope they capitulate in Moscow. Watch the ****s lose to Huddersfield in the last game to send us down.

Good effort. Just need to keep it up. Unlucky, and Ref a definite Gooner, and why did Cr*pbeck decide to play for a change?? Still if we go down with this type of effort I can accept it a bit more (still kick the cat to the next world :-))

Massive well done to Les Reed and the gang for spending that VvD money on the defence in January. Two awful goals to concede but it isn't a surprise when you look at who we have back there. None of the CBs are Premier League standard.

 

3 game ban for Stephens since it's violent conduct.

 

If ur really bothered he’s out then you are mad
