Well that was a pretty dull and uninspiring game.

Positives - our away support was a good as ever and Southamptons prawn sandwiches are infinitely better than West Ham's and as always a good night out in Southampton after.

Agree that the red card could do us a favour as it now forces Moyes to play a different system. Pretty sure Antonio will play in Croatia as well.

I never eat or drink in the ground so I wasn't aware they did prawn sarnies but they'll be prawn substitute to maximise profits.

Those crab stick things.....or worse.

I reckon that would have been the plan anyway .

Might as well go for it in Zagreb as we won’t need our forwards next weekend anyway.

Never like to play on Saturday straight after international.
Always used to be 3pm on a Saturday. Moyes has done a lot of good, but today I think he played right into Saints hands.
I just wish only 2 international games per break than 3 with first one on Friday and 2nd one on Tuesday so that give us leeway like in the past as playing on a Wednesday before domestic fixtures is crazy and only have to look at leagues in Europe that most of them are on Saturday night to Sunday regardless some big clubs in European Cups games. Juventus lost yesterday cos the players are too tired.

Hope after Qatar 2022, to get less international matches will do but I can't see that happening.

Private dining and complimentary bar - very nice. Locally sourced produce with fish so fresh from the sea,they wink at you,when delivered to your table.

No worries. I will help.

Today
Antonio - It happened before and it's happened again. All gone to his head and now thinks he can play. He can't. He is a one dimensional battering ram and not a good footballer. When he tries to play football and doesn't give 100%, like today, it's embarrassing.
Ogbonna - I called it before the season. Time caught up with him and will be a liability this season, like today.
Soucek - Donkey. Embarrassing in possession. When he doesn't score he ain't worth a rub of soap. Appalling today.
Rice - Ego out of control and playing for himself not the team. Summed up when he wasted a good free kick because he wanted to shoot. Should have sold him in summer.
Dawson - League 1 player, as I stated when he signed.

100% fact.
watched the highlights ...unless i missed something we drew? ..oh well just have to accept the alternate reality that we are shit and sitting bottom of the league..what a shit start to the season moyes out .. i guess.

A lot of empty seats there on Saturday. I suspect that their negative football might be taking its toll.

First away game for a long long time for me.

Loved it.

Southampton didn't want to play football just camp out and hit us on the break. Nearly worked.

Atmosphere was good but not a fan of the stupid Spurs song that was sung far too much. Rather focus on us than them losing.

I heard he hardly played.
Much the same as today then. ;)
Not like you have had an agenda against Benrahama since we signed him is it ;)

Hardly got a kick today but neither did Antonio and he was Player of the Month
