Southampton V Everton - Build-up/Match Thread/Reactions

That can’t help.

hmm same goal as last week

Well taken, but don’t know how they go so many so far forward so quickly.

I think Kone is proving difficult to pick up. He’s drifting wide and then back centrally.

He will leave space doing this though.

I had a bad feeling for today, the best I could see was a draw.

Keep watching Mr. Bulsara.

Early days yet.

Eastleigh’s very own Matt Targett getting extensive treatment there. Thankfully fit to continue.

Unfortunate to draw Lukaku on the day he has his monthly Good Game

This. Really dissapointing to concede basically the same goal two weeks running.

Mane and Pelle not really providing the same threat level as usual.

facile observation, but maybe the pace+athleticism of Clyne, Bertrand + Morgan used to protect us from these disgraceful counter-attack tactics

I don’t love Steven Davis like I used to. The most underrated bro at Southampton is starting to look overrated.

fksk

Oh dear. Poor tackling by midfield and next thing they’ve scored.

I can’t help thinking we need to recognise that that French bloke isn’t here anymore, and given that we can’t replace him with Steven Davis.

Out of position for me, Bear.

I would take off Shane Long + replace him with JWP, and sub Steven Davis for Ward-Prowse. I would also think about getting James Ward-Prowse on the field, if I can, but maybe just for the last 20 mins cos I don’t want to use all 3 subs so early.

The capacity of football to ruin one’s entire weekend, is fucking grim. This is why I prefer Midweek games.

Wind it in, Barry - it’s 45 mins of football. That’s the kind of reactionary shit that’s the preserve of the Other Place.
