EFL Cup Semi (1st Leg) Southampton (away) Match Thread

[FoxForceFive]

Coutinho. Marvellous.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

I hope we're more interested come Sunday!

 

[hmmmmm1]

Awful

 

[FoxForceFive]

Thank fuck he took the shot.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Clyne should have made the tackle when he had the chance though.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Should be 2-0 ... great break by Soton after a shite Coutinho corner (why are we shite at corners?)

 

[refugee]

Lucas ran through quicksand during that counterattack

Pretty sure Milner took it

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Clyne should have made the tackle when he had the chance though.

Yup, or taken the yellow.
Poor on his part.

 

[manwithnoname]

Another great opportunity for them. So much space for them to run into, which is weird given that we have Lucas shielding the midfield

 

[Kay Age El]

Coutinho is our sole creative outlet when we face a packed defense isn't he?

We need more in the team, defo an area we should look to strenghten.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Brilliant play from Firmino that run, dribble & cross from wide.

 

[Brizzle]

Get Emre off... he is a shadow of his self from last season. Plodder

 

[Dreambeliever]

So this is close to our full strength side for the next month.

Yep we certainly have no need for any creative reinforcements.

Fuck me.

 

[hmmmmm1]

The Lucas booking

 

[manwithnoname]

Great tackle lucas

 

[Leo]

What a plodding donkey Lucas is.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Fucks sake lucas. That's literally his trademark move, shield the ball & block the man cos I'm too slow to keep possession.

 

[Brizzle]

This performance whilst the shop window is open is yet again enough to secure Lucas' future at the club. No suitors will be wanting his 'attributes' in their team.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Emre playing like he is pissed. All over the place with his decision making

 

[Jack D Rips]

Is there a chance of Hendo being available for Sunday?

 

[Brizzle]

Would prefer to see Origi up top instead of Studge. He has offered nothing all game.

 

[Farkmaster]

I loved that from Lucas, evidently I'm the only one.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Get Emre off... he is a shadow of his self from last season. Plodder

Can takes a fair few matches to hit his stride, I said that when he returned to the side & sadly he's proving me right. He'll probably be back in form just before Mane gets back from Africa.

 

[manwithnoname]

Still time for us to score 4

 

[jon545660]

I'd happily take this scoreline into the 2nd leg. Given how shit we've been.

 

[FoxForceFive]

I always ask this & then forget again, but is there an away goal rule in the league cup?

 

[Kay Age El]

We could so much use at least one great attacking FB as well. Clyne is steady but he rarely gives us creativity in any shape or form. Milner a bit more but not much.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Still time for us to score 4

Let's start with one ... and worry about the other 3 at Anfield.

 

[hmmmmm1]

This is comedy value now with the notes
