Jimmy_D Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 We’re top of the league... We’re top of the league.... We are Southampton... We’re top of the league! 2
bpsaint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Amazing. What a difference a year makes. so gutted we’re not there to see it 3
Ex Ringwood Saint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Stonking... Just so wish I was there with my lad tonight...
obelisk Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Nice. Worthy winners. Should have had a sackful though.
Viking Saint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Couldn't ask any more out of that. Makeshift LB, main striker out, these are Better Days 😉 1
alehouseboys Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la-la............ 1
Whitey Grandad Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Only six more wins and we’ll be safe from relegation. 1 2

It's There Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Top, even only for a few hours, is something Saints haven't done since 1988! Now to win the league!!!!! (he says getting carried away!) 1
haddock22 Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 For once in twenty years a weekend to rejoice in 1
steve green Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 I like being top. I really like the appreciation of some rather good footy we are playing.
Saint_clark Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 8 more wins to safety and then we can relax and plan for next season 2 2
Dry Toast Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 (edited) Great to see. Get in guys. Signing Walcott is turning out to be a genius move. Edited 6 November, 2020 by Dry Toast can't spell 2
kwsaint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 To quote WGS “I’m going home now to get myself a Coca-Cola and a packet of crisps and I’ll sit in front of the television and look at the table on Teletext all night.” Top of the league. Amazing. If only for 24 hours 1
hypochondriac Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Who else did a quick we're top of the league chant in their front room? 16 1
Toadhall Saint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 My Mrs just said that we bossed it - who am I to argue 😂
Teddeer Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Another superb win with a weakened side. Well done lads and Ralph plus coaches. Playing lots of sparkling football and top of the league as well.
CanadaSaint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 This is an incredibly "all on the same page" team, and what makes it even more impressive is that its cohesion has survived significant line-up changes. Ralph has drilled an instinctive pass and move style into them which, if they do it quickly, is extremely hard to counter. Every game it's difficult to pick a MOTM, which says everything. 5
igsey Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Wow, top of the league - and from tonight's showing, we look like we deserve to be there! Comfortable win. 1
danjosaint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 What great way to advertise to prospective buyers 1
saintadjg Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 we are a top side at the moment. cant fault anyone tonight we were awesome. how do you pick a MOTM from a performance like that? when you look back from the last 12 months we shouldn't be surprised. I fancy our chances against anyone at the moment. we play great attractive football now and again it wont work and we'll get turned over rest of the time we will come out on top. our work ethic is unreal.
Baird of the land Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Very impressive. Only really gave them that one chance all game, whereas we caused them huge problems. And that was without 2 key starters. curious how Walcott didn’t get a penalty.

Sheaf Saint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Really enjoying this interview with Theo. He clearly loves being back with us, and he was very noble to say he didn't think it should have been a penalty. He had a really good game tonight and was unlucky not to score. Had a hand in both goals and caused them problems all night. I'm gonna print that league table off and stick it on my bedroom wall so I can fall asleep looking at it and see it as soon as I wake up. 7
gammon cheeks Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 We look a very very good side .. 2 0 TOP OF THE LEAGUE !!!!
Pilchards Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 We are starting to have some decent home form too We totally bossed it tonight and I’m proud of everyone who contributed from the staff to all the players.
hypochondriac Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Just now, gammon cheeks said: We look a very very good side .. 2 0 TOP OF THE LEAGUE !!!! Also Newcastle looked awful. Imagine having to watch that every week. Almost as bad as us a year ago!
Saint Keef Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 So we can't be at the ground to watch and celebrate this together, but for those of us that are keeping the candle burning on this website, we share the lows and the highs together and so from me to everyone on here and Saints fans everywhere - CONGRATULATIONS! It may only be temporary but damn it feels good. 12
Saint_clark Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Theo namedropping Kenwyne Jones and Ricardo Fuller in his interview 😂 5
Saint Keef Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 It seems we don't do scrappy goals anymore. And that save by McCarthy was MASSIVE!!!!! 3
StrangelyBrown Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Fantastic performance. So many players having brilliant games. Ralph has got us playing some amazing football. Such a better team without hojbjerg! 4
Saint_clark Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Such a shame fans couldn't be there, the place would have been rocking.
trousers Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 Sky pundits fawning over Stuart Armstrong's performance. What the hell do they know, eh...?
Wes Tender Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 What a solid performance, and fulsome praise from the commentators about the exciting, entertaining way that we play. Che Adams continues to grow as a scoring force and was ably abetted by Walcott. The midfield continues to be marshaled well by Romeu and Ward-Prowse protecting the defence, who as a result weren't overly troubled and whenever threatened, stood firm. McCarthy was mostly a spectator, but late on produced a world class save to keep the clean sheet. We ought to have been weakened by being without Ings and Bertrand, but it didn't seem that way. OK, Ings might well have pounced on one or more of the chances that we created, and Bertrand would have produced more forward threat up the left than Stephens did, but it didn't matter, as we were comfortable throughout most of the match. Let's hope that the international break doesn't halt our momentum, or produce any injuries, and that instead it benefits us by giving us time for injuries to heal and for team cohesion to improve still further. This is a good team we have, and with great spirit and fitness levels. Hasenhuttl has done a good job of late and the results are a credit to him and the players, who are doing us proud. 4
LaptopSaint Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 What a performance. Wish we could have been there. 32 fucking years! Thanks boys, thanks Ralph, thanks Marcus. 3
rallyboy Posted 6 November, 2020 Posted 6 November, 2020 What Ralph has achieved is quite incredible. 9-0 to top of the league - now that's a story worth hearing again. 3 1
