Saw earlier that Palace have been linked to a new right sided CB which suggests Andersen is gonna be on his way out.

Walker-Peters had a through ball on to the right there but chose to shoot with his weaker foot from a poor position. Think Southampton need to be coached better in the final third.

The XG is pretty telling. Looked very even on chances created and it basically is. Sheffield Wednesday sitting super deep is working in regards to stopping Southampton from creating chances. But they've then got to rely on scraps themselves. Bet they've planned for a tight game like this from the start. Southampton score now and all of that is ignored though.

How many yellow cards are our coaching staff gonna wrack up across the season then? Cos if it is just a yellow card for the second coach to arrive in the technical area, then we are just gonna do it when required.

Also, the new touchline rule is silly.

Lovely stuff. Southampton winning the passing, mind. Chances had been pretty even...

Aye, Minteh is getting utterly panned on Twitter.

James Ward-PrOOOOWWWSSEEE... keeper comfortably catches it.

6 minutes? Clear your schedules lads, our games are gonna run forever.

Haha, how long will booking players for kicking the ball away last? Right up until a Man City player does it on the opening weekend.

Think Sheffield won't be too upset so far. They've conceded to a solid, significantly deflected, long range strike whilst having created two good openings which they failed to take. As joey said, this is probably gonna be their hardest home game of the season. I do wish they'd step up the pitch a bit though.

Ah, that's partly why the keeper wasn't getting near to it

That was a lovely move by Wednesday. Second time they've sliced through the Southampton lines.

That's a really good strike. Keeper isn't getting near that.

Walker-Peters stepping inside to play RCM whilst Southampton are in possession is cute.

More than enough opportunities there for Wednesday to score.

Southampton's sluggish passing is already annoying me

This is exactly what I say to myself just before the first game of each Championship season and doing my absolute best... I make it through that single game before my interest wanes. Good luck.

Landing a top tier CB will make this a very successful summer.

Doesn't seem to be any info on TV coverage for the weekend. I guess they'll leave it to the last minute to announce as people would be less likely to buy those £30 tickets if they knew it was free/tenner to stream.

A depth comparison between now and just before the takeover would be fascinating. Seems like we are getting to a stage where we have depth and youth prospects in most areas. Unprecedented 3 years ago.
