Saints 1-1 Palace - Match Thread

[Saint Fan CaM]

Great goal from Saints - and guess what from one touch football.

[Jonnyboy]

Amazing!

And I was literally just mumbling to myself that Fernandes is really good but how many goals and assists does he actually get lol.

[Sheaf Saint]

Sweet. That's probably our best passage of play all season.

[Saint NL]

Commentator just said "it's elite level football from Southampton".

Well that's not something we hear often

[Suhari]

What a fucking goal that is.

Maybe our best of the season.

[ChristopheVAFC]

COYS !!!

[Saint_clark]

Tall Paul, another one we need to keep. Proving the doubters wrong.

[Saint NL]

The problem is, if we concede one then we'll concede three.

So what's it to be, a rare 1-0 win or another loss?

Who do we sign with our minimal budget who will be better? 

I don’t know but Sully did sweet Fanny Adams last season.

[trousers]

Reeling them in...

 

[Saint Fan CaM]

If Sulemana was 20% less selfish with the ball he’d be an awesome player and much more effective.

Did sweet Fanny Adams under Martin this season too. Looks a different player when he's actually allowed to run with the ball.

I'm going to miss Fernandes next season...  what a player... has the making of an elite AM.
Sublime cross to Tall Paul for the goal

Where will he go?

I don't think he's ready for an elite team. It would be a shame seeing him end up at a West Ham or Everton.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Palace resorting to ugly tactics when getting a face full of Tall Paul. 😂😂😂

[Saint NL]

These Palace players are a bunch of crying pansies

More importantly we are currently NOT the worst Premier league team in bloody history!!

[Saint Fan CaM]

Gueye fouls Downes but gets the FK!

[Saint NL]

Downes is a bit thick isn't he? 

[trousers]

Palace player pulling Downes' shirt there? 

[the colonel]

streams anyone?

And yet Adam Armstrong looked like Luis Suarez running around with the ball and even the much cheaper Sam Edozie popped up with six goals IIRC. Sully hasn’t done it for three different managers now, even dropping down a division.

[kjurwi]

Does anyone think we will se Larios or Stewart next season?

Adam Armstrong missed twice as many chances as he scored. He just knew where to stand to get chances. 

Sulemana started a whopping 10 games last season. 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Brilliant save from Rambo!

If you're asking if we will see them, then yes we will.

If you're asking if they'll play and contribute, then the answer is no.

[Saint NL]

Fantastic save and grab

With the top 8 into Europe next year, there will be plenty of interest from the PL. Reckon he'll go for 35million with add-ons

It’s the odd 45 like this that shows this lot shouldn’t be the worst saints team in prem history, never mind the rest. I’d take Manning over Simon Charlton for example. Thankfully I grew up on Le Tiss.

So poorly managed throughout the season it’s untrue.

Save Rambo 👏

 

 

[Saint Fan CaM]

Palace getting very dirty now.

Think Everton will be fine next year. Buy two or three of that standard and they will be back top half.

[Saint NL]

Ahhh, Tall Paul needs to do better there

[trousers]

Onuacho has to lunge at that, surely? Just seemed to give up at the last moment

Should have taken a touch. Desperate.

And there we are - Palace are behind because of their Cup effort.

They are a tad lacklustre to be fair

They were behind in 76 too.

Probably thinking it would be a walk in the park and only having to turn up.

[Saint_clark]

Never mind games, how many halves have we actually won this season?

Perhaps, but for me…for once…we’re actually playing ok and putting up a bit of a fight.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Is it half-time yet? My fucking service has crapped out.

[ButtikonSaint]

Downes has been poor this season, still makes a lot more sense to see him with big Les in midfield.
Not a bad half: wing backs are keeping it tight, not too gun-hoo. Central three haven't had to do too much. Great goal.

[Mr X]

How many times have we seen this? We know the plotline for the second half! If we let palace equalise it will only go one way.....That said at least we have been better and tried to bring the game to them.... Not sure it will translate into a positive result though! 😬

Ah not just mine then.  Every channel has gone down.

Anyone got a link for another stream?

Was ludicrous the amount we spent on Downes, another symptom of Martin wanting to keep his boy band together at any cost. If we can keep him next season we should but we should then look to sell or relegate him to a bench player.
