Match Threads Southampton Vs Spurs

[bubble07]

We give praise so we have to criticise

HT Conte should have made 2 subs. Reguilon and Emerson off who both played full games on boxing day and bring on Lucas and Gill and work the wings

Come on man is fucking common sense

 

[CantSmileWithoutYou]

Just one of those days today...

 

[Wick3d]

Days like today you learn about who you can count on and who you can't. Lets hope Levy backs Conte in the transfer market.

 

[TheSpillage]

Not a great performance but have to say we were robbed there. Ref gives those goals and we win comfortably. There will be plenty of games like that where we don’t play well but scrape the 3 points. Disappointing but important to keep it context: we’ve come a long way in a short period of time. Onwards…

 

[qqq1]

Can. see it on here too with people slagging off the team as well

we deservedly should have won today end of

Yeah we weren't great but it was our second game in 3 days after a lot of our players were out with covid. We were poor but still did enough to win, incompetent officiating cost us.

Very narrow pitch - not sure why we didn’t bring on ndombele when they were down to 10 and when royal went off why didn’t we switch Doherty to RB and play 4 at the back with extra man in midfield ??

 

[ShelfWatcher]

Play our best team v Watford, that includes Skipp Hojberg and Lucas
I think Doherty or Tanganga instead of Reggie too. Not sure what's best re LWB, little part of me still thinks Davies
I thought they were drawing the lines to favor attackers this season. Still need to be a bit thicker in favor of attackers
Was a beautiful goal from our two Academy Harrys, so anti football it was chalked off

 

[VegasII]

Fuck it. We need some new signings in the coming weeks to give us a bit of a spark.

 

[THFC_SWE]

Correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't they (FA) say that when a player score a goal and its hard/impossible to see if its offside or not, the goal should stand? I think VAR robbed us.

But I also think we should do better.

 

[Daytripper]

Kane was onside
but that’s definitely the foul by Doherty.

what? The keeper had dropped the ball before Doherty had even jumped. If anything Forster was touched by his own player before Doherty. Perfectly good goal incorrectly ruled out.

 

[Spursberg]

This will come to irritate us under Conte, no matter how many loves him, in matches when we need to take chances, he will still stick with 2 defensive midfielders, Even against 10 men ffs, so frustrating

 

[SpursTillIDie1882]

This game was always going to be interesting in terms on how we performed away from home , most of our games in the PL have been at home, first real test away from home for conte and team in the PL since his arrival

 

[yusrisafri]

Winks delivery is poor. He's had so much time and space to put balls in the box

You serious mate?

 

[Matrix]

This!!

 

[daveduvet]

I actually think Doc played well. He didnt use his left feet, but he did play well IMO

Yea. He was pretty good. But I genuinely can’t fathom how a professional football player can’t use his less favoured foot..

 

[bigfrooj]

I actually think Doc played well. He didnt use his left feet, but he did play well IMO

I don’t want to disrespect anyone’s honest opinion but he didn’t. Awful player who’s biggest contribution was being a big lump getting in the face of Forster for that ‘goal’.

 

[Chezaspur]

2 halves against ten men and no goals. Oh for a Christian Eriksen.

 

[Spursh]

Looked unbalanced in attack with Doherty at LWB and Gil at RWB.

Conte should have changed system to a back four with Doherty at RB and Davies at LB, freeing up Gil to actually play as a winger.

First time I’ve seen the manager make a tactical mistake.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Our away form is also massively worrying. We were lucky to be playing against 10 men because Saints were absolutely dicking us before the sending off.

 

[13VanDerBale13]

I don't get why we persisted with 5 at the back when the game was there to be won
