Hadn't really been paying attention but as it stands they are 11th. Doesn't seem five minutes since they were top. That could be us too... things are very tight. Need to win tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main reason they were flying was the incredible finishing from Ings and Ward-Prowse. Since the former got injured, they lost momentum and neither player has been in that kind of form recently. Let’s hope Man U and Everton go the same way as they have been the two other sides in the top half whose positions are far better than their expected goals.

AjcW Posted 26 January 2021 Share Posted 26 January 2021 I wouldn’t be surprised to see the West Brom chairman pull the trigger again. They’re only 6 points behind Brighton and free falling Newcastle just ahead. There’s still a chance for someone to sort this mess out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo a team brings in Alladyce for one reason, to make them more solid and harder to beat. If anything WBA has become easier to beat since he arrived, shipping goals every week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I remember just before we played them, Saints fans were saying that they were now at the same level as us. No Southampton, you've just had a good start and all good things must come to an end. We haven't been out of the top 5 positions for 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hankey Posted 26 January 2021 Share Posted 26 January 2021 41 minutes ago, Babylon said: Because the caveat used for another offside scenario could be interpreted that way. They’ve now closed that loop hole because it was a farce, people were miffed because no matter what the laws said it’s not right. Hence the change. Well this has been the case since time in memorial and just because some folk are bleating about now doesn't mean the change is right. And all because an England international didn't control the ball properly, absolutely crazy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their lack of depth is to blame, past number of games has proven that. Ings was injured, came back, then got Covid. Tonight they were missing their first choice full-backs, having the likes of Yan Valery as back up won’t help matters, we’ve seen first hand how shit he can be . Vestergaard and Romeu have also been missing for recent games. When everyone is fit, they are no doubt a very good side, who play a good brand of football. Teams like ourselves, West Ham, Everton and Villa have better depth though, Southampton’s lack of depth could easily cost them a European challenge.

Leicester_Loyal Posted 27 January 2021 Share Posted 27 January 2021 Southampton remind me of ourselves last season, excellent first 11, with a class striker, but no depth to the squad. Once you take 2 or 3 out of the 11, the quality of the team decreases massively and you start to struggle a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are always adding to the laws or changing interpretations. There are numerous laws, interpretations and caveats that rule someone offside, even if the defender gets to the ball first and plays it. So this notion that “Defender played ball, player can’t be offside” is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 27 January 2021 Share Posted 27 January 2021 Southampton's entire ethos relies on momentum, confidence and fit and healthy players. All 3 of that is being tested right now and it's no surprise they've hit a sticky patch. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
