Stuntman_Mike Posted 21 April 2023 Share Posted 21 April 2023 Just now, StanSP said: I think we're looking at it from different angles. To me, I see our results as more of the priority. Even if Southampton weren't even playing tonight, we're all saying we need to win tomorrow. Winning tomorrow is the be all and end all. So whatever Southampton were going to do tonight, we were still needing to win tomorrow because of being in 19th place. We have to win, whatever other sides do. Southampton were still winning when I posted! I think we are looking at it from different angles. We need to win at some point yeah, because you can't rely on others for too long, but if we lose and those around us continue to lose we're still as close as we were to safety.. Southampton picking up points does us no good and that's why no one actively wanted them to win tonight in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dan LCFC Posted 21 April 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 21 April 2023 Bullet dodged. If Southampton won that they'd be right back in the mix to survive. But to draw it like that, that should be enough hopefully to end them. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniFox21 Posted 21 April 2023 Share Posted 21 April 2023 Ward-Prowse just said they get points against the big teams, make sense that they did the double over us 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jobyfox Posted 21 April 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 21 April 2023 People saying that’s Southampton “done”. They are no more “done” than we are. 3 of their next four games are against Forest, Bournemouth and Fulham. They probably need to get at least 7 or 8 points from that lot. We need to get similar, or more, from our next run of fixtures too. If you were a supporter of any other team in the league you’d have us as favourites to join Southampton in the Championship at this point. 14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost to Southampton twice. Worst Chelsea team in two decades and lost twice. We can put it right tomorrow but I’m not convinced it’s game over for the Saints. Why they took Alcaraz off I do not know, he was on fire. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splinterdream Posted 21 April 2023 Share Posted 21 April 2023 29 minutes ago, The Doctor said: I mean it wasn't though was it? the squad we had last season shouldn't have become relegation candidates off one window without investment. a responsible manager who doesn't throw his toys out the pram at that and we're not in this mess It was to me, don't know how you find prior comments but you could see other teams strengthening and we weakened ourselves by some way. We list fofana, lookman and kasper, Vardy was always going to fall off a cliff and youri performances weren't great as his head was turned, then there's BR calling the team after the forest game. Yes it was obvious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Loyal Posted 21 April 2023 Share Posted 21 April 2023 Probably cuz they’re gonna need 10 (maybe 11 with their GD) points out of 18 to survive now, doubt they’ll achieve that but we’ll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 22 April 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 22 April 2023 Watching games like that makes our title win even more miraculous. Newcastle have bottled the league, Liverpool under Rodgers, Spurs, now maybe Arsenal. But somehow we didn’t despite that heartbreaking last minute loss to Arsenal. We probably go down this season but still, to see that dream come true was totally insane. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three of their next four fixtures are very winnable: Bournemouth (h) Forest (a) Fulham (h) Southampton have looked terrible but against Arsenal they've shown they've got some fight after this match and the four teams above them all look like they'll struggle to win two games more this season.

CrazyKopCorner Posted 22 April 2023 Share Posted 22 April 2023 The passion and commitment from the Southampton players against our limp performances is stark. Brendan was shite but our players have been so poor it’s been beyond belief Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan was shite but our players have been so poor it’s been beyond belief They have and as I was saying last week we have some thoroughly unlikeable players - players you wouldn't wanna be down the trenches with, players who don't dig in and fight. However, us as fans have been just as apathetic over the last 2 years, but that's what's been allowed to be instilled all stemming from Brendan's demeanor, the boring football, the obsession with control. That's been and gone now though, hopefully we can get abit of bite, abit of nastiness and ruthlessness into our play and mentality now, hopefully it's not too late.

Play off disaster, championship win, great escape....all of those events plus the signing of Kante led to our resilience being incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
