Back to his deluded best in the post-match comments.
Interesting from DS's post-game press conference that at half-time players thought that they were being done tactically by Southampton which DS disagreed with.Maybe some indication that players are concerned by our tactics. Doesn't excuse their lack of tempo or general lethargy recently though even if they might have a point.

We need to sign at least two midfielders in January and one of them need to be a real hard ass. We also need another a striker and left and right back. Only 5 more signings......Hourihane got a goal and assist against Fulham and hadn't played a single minute since. That's despite McGinn and particularly Barkley being absolutely useless in the last two games.

Hourihane isn’t as good a player as either of them.
