Had not noticed the helicopter celebration however seen it now on BBCi player, new way of celebrating.
Both goals came from free kicks, we really need to stop giving cheap free kicks and corners.

Anybody else spot the fan doing the helicopter with his cock during the goal celebrations

Come again?

Lets hope he gets a stiff sentence

What a bloody awful second half.

Looked ok until half time.

[Chicken Chaser]

Stopped watching after the 2nd one went in. Only just saw that they managed another 2. Probably more of a true reflection of how we are playing. ASM seems to go too far. I like watching him take people on, but sometimes theres a pass that will open up an opportunity but he chooses to try and do too much which in the end leads to nothing. That Joelinton deal needs investigating too.......

[ellroy]

Hope we can get something today.

A bad run over the next few and we’ll be right back in the mix.

[ellroy]

We are fking garbage.

[ellroy]

Back in the mix I fear.

[TX1]

Yes it looks that way, cannot understand why he keeps playing Joelinton.
Why did he not play Max from the start or at least bring him on earlier.

[DoctorX]

Looking forward to the goal fest. Not feeling overly confident.

[TX1]

Hope we keep playing the same way in the second half.

[Chicken Chaser]

Nearly snatched defeat from the jaws of victory there. Brilliant first half, garbage second. Good to see Almiron get a couple of decent goals, will be good for his confidence as there was still plenty to do with them. Some really good link up for the first half but the second half and subs went to pieces. Energy dropped and they couldn't retain possession.

[ellroy]

I. I didn’t dream it? Did I?

We played some good stuff and we’re in the last 8? Nearly threw it away, but held out?

Last 8? Must be a dream.

[skahigh]

Really good performance, the last twenty minutes typically brought us under pressure but the score line made the game appear closer than it really was.

[DoctorX]

Damn.

[fathomfive]

Don't fret. This is the game where Joelinton comes good and scores a hatrick.

Of course, it's far more likely that it's also the game where Man City net 6 lol

[ellroy]

Well, can’t say I’m overly confident about today. We’ve never been great down on the south coast.

Need to find a win from somewhere though, but I’d happily take a point.

Fingers crossed.

[fathomfive]

Well, three points is three points.

[Carlton Banks]

We NEVER do well at Southampton - just remember the days when Le Tissier used to score goals against us for fun.

Well today we were well worth the victory, ASM did it again !!!!

[ellroy]

Well spent the day in hospital with, what turns out to be, a kidney stone. They fking knack.

That’s cheered me up no end, no end at all.

No ill will to Saints, but we surely deserved something from them just to even things out over the last God knows ho many years.
