Saints 2-2 Leeds - Match Thread

[The Kraken]

Leeds break down our left flank. Think that could be a common theme.

I'm watching on American TV, they keep praising Leeds and don't think they've mentioned Saints yet 😂

So here we are at the Mary Arena for the clash between Southampton Saints and Leeds Uniteds. Star left defensor Mustaffa Juniho wanting to improve on his 5 out of 18 tackles in the reverse fixture at Elmore Road.

Saints haven’t settled at all here. A good couple of opening minutes, the rest has been very scrappy.

[Mr X]

Leeds do look like they want it more at the moment that could change of course 

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck sake Djenepo. Terrible cross.

[Mr X]

Djenepo always the wrong decision no football brain 

[OttawaSaint]

What??? Looked like a foul and red???

[OttawaSaint]

Don't think he got ball.

[Saint NL]

var needs a look at that

Yes we aren't very compact or neat. Players getting familiar with each other I guess. 

[Suhari]

Good football. Unlucky Stu didn't quite get through.

Oooohhh. Close on for VAR.

[The Kraken]

I think he just gets the ball there

[OttawaSaint]

Wtf!?! Bullshit. That's Salah and it's red immediately.

he managed to get a bit of the ball, quote clearly

[Mr X]

I think he got the ball to be fair much as I wished he hadn't

He took the man first though. It's a foul and a red card. Guarantee it would have been given to Liverpool.

[Baird of the land]

Looks like one of those ones where he needs to go through the man to get a touch on the ball.

[adrian lord]

It would be against the spirit of the game for that to be a red card

[Disco Stu]

2 red cards not given for our first 2 games

[OttawaSaint]

Ohhhh good move. Unlucky Stu.

[Jack]

I never want Djenepo to play for us again, horrible player. 2 bobbling hospital passes back to CBs already, horrible cross, first touch is dire. I know he’s playing out of position but shouldn’t be on the pitch

[AlexLaw76]

Lets be honest, this is shit.  Ralph is shit.

Leeds are generally in control and we are hoping to knit a few passes together on the break

If this is as good as it gets, we are finishing bottom

[skintsaint]

Ok own up...who sent this in! 

 

[hans gruber]

Whhhoooah, Leeds very lucky there. Sure he got the ball but only after Armstrong has been cleaned up…. Reckon that’s a red most times

Correct

[Sheaf Saint]

Wasn't it Llorente who escaped a certain red for an awful tackle on Broja after he had hit the shot for the winning goal last season?

[adrian lord]

Unlucky Armstrong

Yip

[OttawaSaint]

He fouled Stu and then got ball. Red card. 

VAR just look, ah it's only Saints and not City, Pool or Chelsea...play on!

No, poor game all round so far. Leeds have probably edged it but saints have got back into it after a sluggish start.

Even game so far. We've had better chances and they should have had a red card with Stu being taken out when through on goal. Slow game but we've created a few bits and pieces.

Defence yet to be properly tested.

There's a few of us.

Michael Dawson says it was a pen. Everyone else saying no.

And how the fuck is that not a FK for a dangerous high boot? Right in front of the Lino as well.

He got the ball after the contact. Could have gone either way.

Exactly the same 😅

I expected us to be a goal down already, seems like we’re “holding on”. 👀

Im sure it’ll only be a matter of time.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned but noticed no Redmond in the squad either, would rather him at LWB than Djenepo.
