Southampton v Aston Villa Match Thread

leicester have scored  ..oh my

They score sometimes away from home. Just never at their own place.

[Martyn Smith]

Soton cant even complete a pass. What’s everyone so pessimistic about..?

It's not Southampton I'm worried about, it's the team they're playing

70% poss, 12 shots and 4 corners.. that team?

Yeah, and against a team who look like they'll struggle next season as well: Goals 0

I get the energy conservation, of course. Hopefully Unai will let them off the leash a bit for the second half

[PaulWinch again]

Not good. This has 1-0 Southampton written all over it unless we up it.

[PeterWithesShin]

They'll be delighted with a point, takes them level Derby. So unlikely they'll become more attacking.

There is no leash.  There’s a bus.

Yep, they and Everton are doing us favours. Let's capitalise on it

Last year when the fixtures piled up we had a nice cushion to fall back on. Such a shame we slipped up in the two Ipswich games for example. Not much room for error

[PeterWithesShin]

They've kept one clean sheet at home this season, we have to score against this lot.

Sounds like we're trying to make it two. Banana skin alert.

stevie wonder linesman

I'm not overjoyed with his performance

[JUAN PABLO]

Better not be Ipswich all over .   

[BoVillan esq]

Word has it that Uni was heard shouting from he dressing room if you play like this in the second half, pre-season will involve a lot of Netball training.

[lovejoy]

If we don’t win today we ought to just PSG not to bother next week.

[Nev]

Patience.

Maatsen's final ball is poor, they are fouling whenever they feel like it and Albrighton showing Ferdinand how to be a thoughtful, balanced and unbiased co commentator.

[JUAN PABLO]

the players dont look happy with the ref there
