Southampton v Man Utd

[brightn'ove]

cheers robin for the 24 points

shame the rest of my team were so SHIT.

 

[Falkor]

There is no way that if they lose every game they will stay up !

On a serious note though I don't think Lambert will be allowed so much room to run into once the prem clubs see how much power he has.

they wont lose every game playing like that not a chance

 

[C1 BHA]

dont mind Southampton just dislike adkins

THIS with knobs on

 

[Bozza]

Saints raised themselves for their Cup Final, Adkins bottled it and they lost.

Wigan last week is more representative of the scraps they need to win and they flunked that too.

They won't be able to play like that, I havent see these new signings yet but Take Lambert & lallana out of that team and its not good enough to compete

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

Keep up---Keep up---Keep up---------This just about makes up for that shit train journey down there last season and that unjust result. Call me sad but wotever!!

Agreed, they are in for a long season.

Not sure letting Sharp go was a good move either.

 

[Northstander]

In some respects for new prem teams, these games are the easy ones for the players to raise their game in! Its the West Brom, West Ham and Norwich games where the big results matter! Just cant see them staying up at this stage (albeit very early yet )

And Hammond!

 

[severnside gull]

the smarmy arsed twat too clever for his own good and f***ed up again

 

[Chicken Runner61]

Arsenal away next - lose that one and they will be adrift

Ha then Villa, Everton and Fulham! Masybe a point from west ham and then lose to Spurs and they will be as good as down

 

[Springal]

They are the strongest team in the league apparently... Holding up everyone else. What a nob

 

[R. Slicker]

Adkins interview, sounds like a broken record, positives blah blah, engage the football blah blah.

 

[xenophon]

I actually feel sorry for Saints players and fans, but their manager let them down badly there. Taking off Lallana and especially Lambert? After he was putting Ferdinand and Vidic in all sorts of trouble? I can't recall do Prado holding the ball up once, Lambert would have done that without breaking sweat.

They were robbed, by their own gaffer. Adkins is way out of his depth at this level, and sinking a team that should be doing well with the talent and work rate they have.

Not looking good is it. The closer we get the size of the jump to the Premiership becomes more apparent.

No, not sad, I know exactly how you feel.

 

[happypig]

Stranger things have happened. Oddly, this rumour about Adkins being fired keeps cropping up. One of the papers today suggested the Southampton board were having to deny an interest in Harry Redknapp. Would seem highly unlikely to be, especially given his past history with them and Pompey, but equally strange is the fact they apparently felt it warranted a denial to the media. Smoke, fire?

I'm not sure the fans would be keen on 'arry coming back, there's a sizeable contingent who hate him with a passion

 

[Barnham Seagull]

Adkins is another Warnock, great for championship and league 1 but not tactically good enough for the prem.

He's good at assembling a powerful robost side and motivating them but that will only get you so far.

 

[Beach Hut]

To be fair they have had two of the tougher games coming very early, hardly the time to panic they have only lost to City and Utd by the odd goal.

 

[patchamalbion]

Don't really care much for this fake rivalry some have on here with soton- i personally hate Palace and that's about it.

i feel sorry for their fans today, adkins is a muppet who f***ed it up but they have been impressive against the two manchester clubs - obviously the issue for them is they can't be losing at home to the Wigan's.
