  1. There is an angle that makes it look like he’s offside. Disappointed MOTD didn’t take another look at it to clarify it. He literally overtook Fernandez after the ball was played, not even close. When the ball is played he's offside relative to Fernandez (which is why I thought he was off when I saw the first replay), but Schar on the far side looks like he's just playing him on, which I didn't see at the time. It is close though. Nah.

  3. No, those seats are being filled by others.
  4. There's definitely something in the theory that it's not necessarily age that slows players down in their 30s but miles on the clock. 33 next month and he's still absolutely f***ing rapid. Interesting one. In his career he's played about the same number of games as Wayne Rooney had by age 23.
  5. Clark had a pulled/strained calf so would have been pretty hopeless if he had been left on.
  6. The injury was simply down to him over exerting chasing a ball down in the last minute, disappointing. Saying Atsu can do a passable job is complete bollocks. Atsu is no where near the player, it’s ridiculous to suggest he can do half the job. He’ll be a big miss, he’s our out ball at the minute, we’ve nobody else like him. It absolutely isn't bollocks. Atsu's perfectly fine at carrying the ball, he's just got zero end product. ASM has one goal and how many assists? Is it zero? Their contributions therefore aren't going to differ enormously. I'm criticising the system here, not the player. He's clearly very talented but it's not like the team is built around him, or anyone for that matter (aside from when Carroll's on the pitch, when everything becomes about him). ASM's quick and a decent dribbler, so he's only used to be direct, without any real sense of purpose beyond that. As it happens, pace and dribbling is literally all Atsu has - so he can basically just come in and do the same thing. Much lower ceiling talent-wise, obviously. Have to disagree, Atsu doesn't have the pace and strength the be the same outlet as Saint-Maximin. He'll be a big miss when injured.

    Joelinton

    Would like to see him play on the left with Carroll up top at some point.
  8. Geuniely don't think I've ever seen us play as bad as that and come away with a win.
  9. Apparently Southampton have been told they have to wear last season's third kit. Their current kits....
  10. Have you ever considered a career as a vidiprinter? Am listening to 5Live, whilst playing FM. I'll stop with the updates if everyone is sick of me. No- don’t stop!

  12. Because I keep realising I am wrong! Too early not had coffee yet.
  13. Joe Cole West Ham, 2003 then back in 2012.
  14. Lee Clark I think is correct - or close (1997 then 2005) , Robbie Elliott I agree was shorter. Edit: yes I have misread it completely.
  15. Perfect here but I am on a brilliant fibre connection.
  16. To be honest when I was in Brasil at the World Cup I really enjoyed the random games we went to, Algeria v South Korea was probably the best of the five and we certainly didn't expect that. I'm sure you'll have a great experience.
  17. What was great about it, we parked the bus at home for 90 mins. What's different this time?

    Rafa Benítez

    It was published two weeks ago.
  19. And this is where our fans are a joke compared to others Their attendance tonight is not dissimilar to a fair few of ours last time we played in the competition.
