I think it is rather early to call them questionable loans when Yunus has only been here for 2 league games and Casadei for 4

 

Neither have started a league game yet

 

Also despite his recent wobbles in games, Doyle has still also managed to have good games so far this season, as well improving and contributing in games where he was initially poor

 

At least give the guys a chance, come on

Doyle makes mistakes, but he is also a teenager. His pace and passing usually makes up for his positional errors. 

 

I dont get the criticisms of Casadei, who I think has been very good in every game.

 

And WAY too early to judge Yunus

Imagine being top; just thrashed one of the favourites 4-1 and you have to question some players that haven’t really had a kick yet… man

Tonight was the 1st time you could see runs being spotted and the correct passes being made. I've been a huge critic of KDH recently but he was decent tonight, and the 2 through balls that he made were absolutely fantastic. 

Aside from 1 individual error and 5-10 minutes before they scored, we pretty much controlled the game the way we wanted to and most definitely for the 1st time this season we looked dangerous when we went forward, more purpose which led to more clear cut chances. Sure Saints were poor, but it was a different test to what we've faced so far this season.

 

It was nice to see the little movements, flicks and passes that weren't quite hitting the mark before the international break, were almost on point every single occasion tonight. We've just got to hope that is the start of everything clicking and we push on from here because the signs from tonight are that we are a very dangerous side. We just need that to translate that in games where teams will sit back on us.

To be fair Beckford did say we didn't get out of 2nd gear. 

 

I think they are just blown away by how shocking they were. 

Yea true .. its scary to think though that we haven't really got out the traps yet.. seen glimpses of class but nothing consistent yet

 

I'm under no illusion it'll be easy because it's a tough league but I can see us picking up some big wins

We're a joy. I had long forgot what it felt to enjoy watching us play.

 

Whilst it's true both Leicester and Southampton play possession based football it's like chalk and cheese, it's like two different games, i'm so glad we're finally so far removed from playing they type of nonsense, guff and tripe that Southampton are, they were bloody awful, take nothing away from how we played, it was possession with purpose, no nonsense, we were great but Southampton did half the job for us like we did for so many teams who played against us in the last few years.

Thoughts on Martin from the saints web forum...you're welcome

 

We were warned. 
it’s like Jones all over again. 

 

Martin happy with our performance in his post match with Sky. Mad nate 2.0

 

Needs to go now. Clueless chancer.

 

Absolute madman and chancer.

 

utterly delusional.

 

absolutely no awareness at all. (very very concerning)

 

He's deluded.

 

that interview really concerns me

 

Terrible appointment.

He needs a bollocking for being selfish.

 

He needs to work on his final product.

...I think scoring that goal saved him, as his decision-making is poor!!!

He had a second chance to play someone, and he went on his own in the end and scored, he has to see this as a team game and not judge his contribution by the goals that he scores. Nacho since the start of the season seems to think that goal-scoring is the only thing that he can bring to impress Maresca, he has to see by now that supplying is more beneficial to the team than trying so hard to impress.

We played with a very fluid system, it meant Southampton found it hard to predict what we were going to do; when they had possession they seemed far slower and rigid. Tonight really was some lovely top level continental football from us. Beautiful

Watched the game at the pub with my mate who's a Southampton fan. He said we didn't play well and all our goals came from their mistakes. I agree that we did capitalise on their mistakes but I thought we were great and probably should have scored more. They were terrible at the back, not helped by their wafer thin midfield but i thought we set traps for them perfectly and forced their mistakes with our mixture of pressing and dropping off. When we pressed we caused their keeper and defence all sorts of trouble and when we dropped the press and allowed them out a bit we won the ball further back and broke on them. I didn't think we had played well at all this season, despite our good results (up until Hull) but I thought we were brilliant tonight.
