Southampton 3-1 Leeds Utd - Post Match Debate

[geronimo]

It's a tactical ploy by farke
He is going to give Leicester a 20 point lead by Christmas then claw it back by end of. season just to prove what a promotion specialist he really is

[1964white]

What's that you were saying about our defence fella?

Without Rodon, we are a shambles, that's why we signed him....not to sit on the bench!

[Boo Radley]

Shackleton is dangerously useless at RB. Even Ayling wouldn't be that exposed.

Yeah good thinking batman , so let's rely on one player all season and play cooper instead

[Overman]

It is easy to just follow the ball and blame the defenders but the MF is where the problem lies, failing in all its duties today.

Midfield has been non existent tbf. We've been unable to cope with them all over the pitch. Again, a harsh reality check here. We need a classic 4-3 Leeds vs Derby comeback here.

[1964white]

So much for having an old guard captain on the pitch

[White Riot]

Can someone get an urgent message on to the pitch and tell the lads the match started at 12:30

[WhiteRose]

Disgraceful half, surely we can’t fail to score a couple vs the worst defence in the league

[White Riot]

Leadership qualities, organizer, blah, blah

[Irish Ian]

Knew we were due a shocker, none of our players are having a good game.

Struijk adequate I'd about the best

[Jaydog]

We’ve been crap but Farke has had a minger. Got a lot wrong. What will he change. At least 3 hopefully

[Carrick Dave]

Souleman would eat Ayling for breakfast. Too slow for that tussle.

[Cjay]

Drivel

Two left footed cbs look all over the place.

We are seeing Shacks isn't a right back now as a quality winger rips him apart.

The front 4 aren't working, touch is to slow etc.

But for me it's on Farke.

Clip after clip of Southampton losing the ball playing out from the back, we don't press.

He did the same vs Ipswich and we conceded lots to.

[DDB220]

Just second best all over the pitch - yet some want to believe it would have been a different story with Rodon.
Out played in the first half. I think he will make a change up top. The ball hasn’t stuck.
Rutter not great with his back to goal and no space. He is better from deep carrying the ball.

Need to try and wrestle back some control.

[Jaydog]

Southampton have been good mind. Sharp as a tack with clear tactics unlike us.
Underwhelmed by Kamara. Get Archie on.

[Boo Radley]

Atrocious, against a team without a shred of confidence and we simply let them walk all over us.

Bazunu is able to come out 39 yards and pass inside our dopey backline challenged.

We need 5 subs at halftime just to get some respectability out of this car crash.

That prediction league will be easy to sort out, not one poster as backed Southampton

[Byebyegeegee]

Our only chance maybe if they go down to 10 men, they’ve had 3 or 4 booked already. Clutching at straws really!

[Overman]

Well surely it can't get any worse...can it?
