Not pretty, but got the job done. Did no more than needed. Long was best player on the park, always causing opposition trouble and chasing everything in sight. Put them under pressure quite a lot as usual. Fonte was good defensively, but a fair few wasted passes going forwards. Can't see why Long didn't get MoM.....oh yeah, Lawro was commentating.
Dreadful game last night and a poor performance but we are through to the next round.
Disappointed with Ipswich last night. Expected them to be in our faces all game but was at times very easy.
Good luck to them though with their promotion push.
Tough game now at Newcastle. Hope our ever thinning squad can cope !

What a week.
3 tough away games and 3 wins.
Thought we were comfortable , again , yesterday. Gave Newcastle their goal and they did not really look like scoring after that.
As a Saints fan you are expecting it to go t!ts up but the team just keeps on improving. All the players that are coming in are doing a good job. If we can get through the next couple of weeks the squad will then be back to full strength and who knows where that will end up.
Plus we still have Jay Rod to come back
Real exciting times.

Decent player, nice guy but wants playing time and there are two/ three players in front of him and a couple of youngsters coming through.In my view he'd be a first choice for most premiership sides outside the top 4/5.
Gallagher's an odd one. Not sure what the injury is, tthere were rumours it was a personal thing. I heard he was supposed to be going on loan to Reading. He's not really PL quality, to be fair. Hard worker though.
In other news, Jack Cork signed for Swansea today. Around 1.5m, which isn't as good as the 4.5m touted at the beginning of the season, but then his contract is nearly up. Shame, good player with a good attitude. I guess the emergence of Reed and JWP's development never really left any room for him. Apparently he's taken a pay cut to play more regular football. Fair play to him, he could have done a job at a lot of PL teams.
