Saint86 Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Unlucky. But good performance. The fans need to have some perspective on this one. We really should have won this.

BotleySaint Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Decent enough play. I'm really not bothered we are out, But the decision to VAR cancel the goal is annoying and typical of any attempt we make to try and build some confidence / momentum.

Baird of the land Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Glad to see valery playing well. Obafemi certainly has someth8ng too him even if he should have scored. Those 3 center backs seem to me to be perfect c9mb8nation if you are go8ng to play 5 at the back. Gabbi should never take penalties Glad Hughes didn’t get win to alleviate pressure. Hopefully he’ll be gone after United game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doggface Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Irrespective of the pens, we actually played well tonight. Lots of positives, 3-0 wouldn't have flattered us imo. That said it's only the league cup and Leicester have been dog****. For once we have been unlucky. (Not every week as Hughes would suggest) Pens - Gunn nowhere near any of them. 2 ****e identikit pens from Leicester should have saved them both. Would realistically like to see Obafemi start on Saturday with Ings/Redmond, Armstrong behind, Vestergaard in for Hoedt. Would like to see Valery for Cedric but won't happen. Stephens in if a 3, was decent. Hoedt, Austin should be nowhere near the 11 or even on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be sacked, as and when Les Reed's replacement is appointed and decides who he wants in charge. We aren't going to sack him and put Jaidi or Kelvin in charge for a month.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Rare a team lose after scoring 5 pens, but our keeper didn’t get anywhere near any of theirs.

Vancouver Saint Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Whatever football gods we have offended we must go to the temple and pray for forgiveness. How we managed to lose that game is astonishing. Underside of the bar twice, a disallowed goal (didn't get to see a replay so can't tell if it was good or not), a fluffed open net chance for Obafemi. We should have won that easily. Will have done the opposite of build confidence for our strikers. Gunn is no penalty-saver either...wasn't close to any one of them. Saints supporters sounded good at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint1977 Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 To answer LGTL’s question on the match thread about Gabbi and whether he’d missed both pens he’d taken for us, IIRC it is: - MU home missed - Newcastle home scored - Wigan away missed - Tonight missed 25%. Lambert and MLT it is not (or Beats). What I’d give for any of those three on the pitch. Can’t fault the effort tonight but those just aren’t Southampton calibre players as we would recognise over the years. Valery looked an improvement on Cedric though. Not hard admittedly. Stephens did alright and Vestergaard OK, Yoshi iffy. Looked better without that useless **** Hoedt, I’m sure Hughes his manager/lover will play him v Man U. WTF with Gunn on the penalties? Looked a keeper when he joined but shows you the difference between Man City level coaching and the Southern Premier League coaches at Saints. To think, the players actually used to be improved by the coaching at the club but that’s when anyone gave a turd about the standard of their work at the club.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Was it a weakened side, really? Soares has been sh*t and so Valery couldn't really have been worse. Bertrand struts around and Targett is looking fairly decent again (well he did). And Obafemi has just as much right to start as any of the other non-scoring forwards. Scary really.

That was either a sub that needed to be made twenty minutes earlier, or it should have been someone more specialist at taking penalties. Hughes out.

Saint Pete Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Sounds like genuinely unlucky today. The clean sheet is encouraging at least. Will Hughes stick with that formation and the same centre backs for Man U? I think he should. For those who watched the stream, how did Valery look? And Vestergaard?

LaptopSaint Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 On the way back. Should have won. Didn’t. Hate Vardy. Luck has to change soon. Despite missing that absolute sitter, obafemi’s got something about him. What was Gunn doing for the pens? I mean we’ve only got three keepers on the coaching staff.

derry Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 (edited) I only saw the second half. Until Davis came on we were pressing the life out of them. Davis immediately failed to press hard and Lamina looked as though he took the opportunity to copy Davis. Saints right side with Valery and Stephens looked very solid. Cedric lost his man yet again although he was on his wrong side. When are they going to put their foot through close in chances. The first ten penalties showed the keeper would have little chance. Gabbiadini on Saturday missed a sitter half hit just like his penalty. Obefemi tonight looking for a tap in, just hit it. The back five were fine, the three midfielders put in a good shift, Redmond has got the bit between his teeth,unlucky to hit the bar, even unluckier for the disallowed goal, pushed by two players got through and a ricochet hit his arm and rebounded How the hell he was going to avoid that nobody knows. Obefemi worked hard , showed good strength and pace but very raw. Edited 27 November, 2018 by derry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFC Forever Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Obefemi needs game time to adjust to the pace of the Premier League. With the misfiring forwards that are being used he deserves another game or two. Not that we have anyone clearly better is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 27 November, 2018 Share Posted 27 November, 2018 Think it goes to show that any line up without Hoedt is capable. Stephens, Yoshi, Vest - they are all better CB's. Valery was a beast. Redmond did well. Obafemi looks a handful if nothing else. Midfield 3 were good. I know its popular to hate hughes, but our performances have been solid recently (bar city). I honestly think we are very low on confidence and we just need to get some luck and a wiin and things will improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
