Look at the stats man, compare the stats for each half, that must have been the most one sided 45 minutes of football in PL history.

Can't fault that second half, and this is against a team who smashed Chelsea. Superb performance with the ball, need to cut out the mistakes when we don't have the ball

we matched them first half comfortably but for the set pieces as well if you ask me. Never felt worried from open play.

We get into the minds of the opposition. They know we don't give up and as soon as we get one they get nervous.

 

In the reverse way I actually feel quite comfortable that we'll hold on to a 2-goal lead now.

Its not even like the goals we conceded were poor per say, their team were taller then ours which is why their biggest threat came from set pieces. Open play apart from a near calamity by Schmeicel they didn't threaten

thats a very defensive line up and tbh im a little dissapointed the way ranieri is going by making us a more defensive set up i was loving the fun counter attacking style of if they score 2 well score 3 lol thats how we are known . 

 

id be all for us playing 4-3-3 with kante,drinkwater and king/inler  in the middle and simpson and fuchs as lb/rb to be a bit more solid at the back but with explosive pace up top for the counter with dyer,vardy and mahrez 

 

but thats why im not a manager lol

so this is what i posted pre kick off and how that match reflected what i said , first half we looked poor lack of attack and creativity . basically southampton were laughing . second half on comes some pace and flair and we look great with excellent runs ,passes and the excitement returns which flowed through the team . 

 

for me that second half is how we should start the next game

Everyone complaining about the lack of strikers on the bench today - potentially a blessing in disguise. Because it probably wouldn't have been Dyer and Mahrez coming on at half time. They changed the game

Another great 2nd half I still think if Claudio goes back to a 3-5-2 we'll be more solid at the back and won't compromise on our attacking play. But I can't see it he loves a 4-4-2. Having said that I would like to see Dyer and Mahrez start the next game
