Declaring Southampton champions 30 minutes into a game against a side who squeaked into this division by a gnat's cock. Performative pessimism that's every bit as nonsensical as those unironically thinking we're all aboard HMS Piss The League. Mental. Spent the past week reading it but the football has started now so we’ll know soon enough who was right and who was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian__marshall Posted 4 August 2023 Share Posted 4 August 2023 (edited) I can certainly see the similarities between Russell's style of play and Rodgers. Lots of short passes in possession with little forward movement, and whilst it's clearly still very early days I haven't been that impressed with them out of possession as they seem to press individually rather than as a collective unit. That said the gulf in class between these two sides is startling. Wednesday haven't got anywhere near them.

Arkie Bennett Posted 4 August 2023 Share Posted 4 August 2023 I thought they might go far post with their previous corner as Southampton looked thin on that side. It worked in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manini Posted 4 August 2023 Share Posted 4 August 2023 Be a very tricky first few months for saints, us and Leeds I think. Things will start to pan out properly at the turn of the year I reckon, that’s when we’ll know who the actual front runners are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
