What was the El Garzi incident first half?  Must have missed it.

That was onside what a bloody joke that was

[hilts_coolerking]

Can you lot take your squabble to PM?  Or at least give it a rest with the quotathon?

[Stu]

I can't believe we've managed to sign so many crap players. Then again, I expect they'll be moved on and be playing champions league football in a year or so after they start actually getting coached properly.

20 shots up for Southampton.

By any standards, this is awful

Bit worried about next week, I'll be honest.

What was the El Garzi incident first half?  Must have missed it.

Someone brushed his cheek lightly with their arm, he goes down, rolls around for about 3 minutes - including Mings leaning down and shouting at him to get up - and then decides he's had enough for the day.

Heart the size of a pine nut.

I may go see what's happening on the water rates thread.

Smith has got his clueless head on.

Was just thinking this.

The likes of Luiz will go somewhere like Everton and then the year after they're playing elsewhere in the Champions League.

We won’t improve with Marvellous n Luiz in the middle.  We have no bite or spine.  I  can’t see a player in them.   

Must say I thought there was a player in Luiz but last 2 games I'm starting to question that. He's young, mind, but still... we simply don't have time to wait.

Thought he was great last week bar the miss.

What was the El Garzi incident first half?  Must have missed it.

He was challenging for a high ball, got an unintentional smack on the side of the head, went down, rolled around clutching his face, rolled off the pitch, rolled back on to the pitch, Jack pleaded with him to get off the pitch so we could get on with our corner, he eventually stands up and is promptly subbed.

[PaulWinch again]

Dismal, insipid.

[kieron]

There was talk on WM it was concussion protocol.

I haven't seen it so don't have an opinion.
