Wish these next game threads wouldn't start so soon. Reminds you of the next embarrassment.

In isolation you probably say a really bad night where the red card killed the game and the first goal was offside. But we've seen it before. I'd have took 3-0 at half time..

December is going to kill Cifuentes, squad isn't good enough for any rotation and there are so many games.

The points deduction means we are in danger of relegation. Do you back any of these to give a shit if it gets close?

Obviously it's been terrible but I don't know what people were expecting this second half. Game was gone after the red card.

He's ahead of him as a striker yes, rightly or wrongly we aren't playing with wingers so Monga hasn't come on.

Oh another foul by Downes

I feel sorry in the sense that whatever he does there is at least 3 shit options.

Don't see the point.

Don't even know where the away fans are at Southampton any more. Is there any there?

I don't understand how you don't bring Ricardo on, has to be better than having skipp at left back.

Can't blame for the first one, the player is offside. But the third is really poor. Second you could say he could go for the tackle but then he's accused of diving in.

I was having a nice evening 45 minutes ago. Why am I not watching champions league football as a neutral.

I heard the shout from here Vestergaard FFS

What is the point Ricardo being on the bench midweek?

So people just ignoring Aluko role in the goal then? He doesn't follow the run closely enough and has not stopped a cross all night.

And Downes doesn't get a yellow?

And offside

Never a foul.

They might pick on personality and character, which may include golf and I'd agree that it shouldn't be the main reason but do you really think they are picking on golfing ability? English cricketers aren't the only sports people who play golf in spare time.

Could be a big night for our season. Another win here and I think we can say we are right back in contention (subject to any points deductions)

I'd agree if the alternatives weren't abysmal.

The golf is a bit an easy target for the press, what else are they supposed to do after training? They just used to get pissed.

Are we still on 26 players or is it back to 23?

I think we have to risk Ricardo. Aluko at left back.
