Is there anyone out there that still supports this loser? Giving him an extension to his contract was a shocking decision by Lerner. We are fast becoming a laughing stock

I doubt anyone is laughing at a club that has been beaten by the sides that finished 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th last season.

Cissokho's crossing has been the real highlight of the match for me.

There was one, ten minutes ago, when he got into a decent position, well wide, and swung a cross in which bent around in an arc and narrowly missed Hutton on the other side of the pitch.

It's not the losing. It's the manner of the capitulation. The one-dimensional, utterly predictable tactics. The inadequate ball-retention. The absence of flair or creativity. The lack of goals from midfield. Actually, the lack of goals full stop. The paucity of movement. The inability of the players to control the ball and find a teammate with straightforward passes. The...

Ah fuck it. I can't be bothered.

Tom, mate...hats off to you!
Every one lover a trier...the players could learn from you.

Fair play to Koeman and the Southampton board. Sold a bunch of players for stupid money, bought some good ones, brought in a manager that kept the football playing side of the club and now they are sitting pretty at the right end of the table. Oh and they have scored more today than we have all season.

Final whistle. 3-0

The good thing is I don't hate watching football. I enjoyed the game earlier and ill watch the others tomorrow. I just fucking hate watching the Villa. They do nothing but try and ruin my weekend every damn week.

The highlight of the match for me is that nobody on this thread has spelt Clark's surname wrong...so far!

There is losing, and there's losing so limply, though.

It isn't about results when you play the likes of Chelsea or Man City, it is also about the way you play, and we've shipped 11 for no reply in four matches and managed barely a shot on goal.

I don't think we're a laughing stock (although the contract award was nuts), we're just not a very good football team, and after some good results early on, we're starting to see some pretty stark reminders of how we've played for three or four years now.

We are a club in decline.Lambert is managing the decline.

We've been in decline, short of three-four seasons of mega-spending, since we lost the 2000 FA Cup Final.

Reminds me of when I first started supporting the club in the Crowe era.Everyone knew it was wrong but could not understand why it was geing tolerated.

I thought they might struggle, but they've been very good. I think they'll be ahead of Everton by the end of the season. Some of their signings look inspired and they sold sensibly as well. Got absolute top dollar.
What they've done shouldn't be beyond us. We just need some astute management at the club, from up on high, down to the dressing room.

Not bad for us.

We could start with playing a different brand of football and at PL not constantly giving the ball to the opposition. I fucking hate watching it and I have no idea why a professional football manager cannot see that it simply does not work.
