[Albion] Southampton vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Kosh]

The PL really is shit, no game for about three weeks, then this utter calamity. I’d miss the good old Sat, Tues, Sat FL slog.

I’m trying really hard to give a ****, much like (it would seem) most of our over paid ‘PL’ players.

Pah.

Isn't it just tragic the bedwetters are out in force, we're not playing well, and you're on their backs like the proverbial monkey.
The Fulham game was similar, we didn't play well, but got something out of it. Have faith of feck off FFS

Played quite well against Fulham, to be fair. However, you’re right in that the bedwetting and writing off a whole season after 45 mins of an away game post the international break, when we never play well, is laughable.

 

[AmexRuislip]

Are you joking!? This is a hundred times worse than Fulham.

Bissouma looks the worst of three poor mid fielders

Disagree as Propper has been criminal but all poor.

 

[ferring seagull]

It’s not a one off though. It’s every single away game for the last year that we’ve played like this.

Sort of resonance with 'ThePink Un' (Norwich City Forum)

 

[El Turi]

Locadia and Jahanbaksh for Propper and March at half time. We will never score away playing 4-5-1 with these players.

 

[jcdenton08]

Absolutely dire stuff.

Terrible collective performance so far, even worse individually.

Exactly, the team look crippled by negativity. They are capable of so much more but we’ve not seen a truly good away performance since West Ham.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

This.

Quite clearly doesn't watch our away performances. How an earth he sees it differently is beyond me.

100% this, chris has got to accept the away set up against teams around us simply doesn’t work.

30 million worth of flair on the bench, why not adapt and try it out

I am surprised anyone bothers to go to away games.

It's for that "I was there moment..."

"...I was there when we got over the halfway line!"

Whilst I understand your point I think we actually played well against Fulham and it could be argued the goals were against the run of play. Here we look like a Championship team playing top six Premier League which is concerning.

Championship! League 2

Can we PLEASE have a go Hughton. Not keeping it tight hoping for a set piece 1-1. It won't happen. See West Brom, Watford, Huddersfield etc. I'm not saying it's easy to 'have a go' as Saints are solid enough. But ****ing hell tell you players to play forward, want the ball, stop passing the buck, support Murray and show some bloody belief. You might as well while you're there!

 

[Mancgull]

Proper has had a mare. Surely we can't be this bad in the second half.

 

[southstandandy]

Can't believe we havent managed 1 shot on target in the first half! - Then again, maybe I can. The Saints keeper could sit on his goal line reading a book for how little he's been involved.

 

[Ernest]

It’s down to Hughton he sets up such a negative team so what do you expect

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Fed up with performances like this. We concede entire halves/matches when things aren’t going our way sometimes.

 

[TSB]

Terrible. Actually slightly worse than at Watford so far.

Get Locadia on for Propper.

 

[Cozzy]

Players still sitting on the bus ... cant string 2 passes together .... Propper cant even make one pass ... sorry to say the formation is not right and should have stuck to the normal 4-4-1-1 where every one knows what they are doing ... sadly unless someone sticks a rocket in their pants I cant see us turning this one around , terrible probably worse than Watford game where at least there was the excuse Watford out played us

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

We’re going to come out in the second half and win this.

Agree it's such a dull league with overpaid players !!
Just be grateful manure were absolutely shite a while back
