Would take Ollie off, don't need him getting a needless red and with him running into form again good option for Leeds where pressing from front is badly needed.

Silly dive in on the keeper by Ollie gets him a yellow. Didn’t need to do that.

Why it was there to be won

I think it was too far away. I’m not criticizing the effort to get there

Anyone mention yet how fetching the Southampton away kit is? For some reason I find myself very sympathetic to its colour scheme.

That thought crossed my mind too.

We had a similar away kit in 70/71 (?) when Tommy Docherty was manager and Bruce Rioch signed for us :)

Coutinho could have had a hat trick today. What a player.

Pre-season friendly v Italy U23s at home. Team ran out wearing the new yellow and blue away strip and got roundly booed. Fans thought they were the Italians.

It's a lovely kid regardless of world event news. Part of reason I always like seeing them in top flight as generally a decent club.

Odd occasions we have yellow away kits they're always pretty garish.

Coutinho getting deserved standing ovation, Buendia on.

That's embarrassing from their player.
