Match Thread Southampton v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Amw79]

When did we start these long throws into the box, and throwing our 2 centre halves up?
Thought Silva was meant to be about passing football.

 

[lungo]

Looks like an Allardyce team.

nope. . allardyce did have a game plan. Not a nice one but he did have one. Can you tell me Silvas game plan please?

 

[kenada_blue]

No striker or hold up player really hurts us

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Siggy terrible AGAIN.

Siggy off, mola in the middle, Rico left and dcl up top

 

[sageyefc]

Would like to see richy back on the left, Bernard central and a striker brought in to replace gylfi second half

 

[polish]

Two blocked shots during entire half of playing actual football. Another tactical masterpiece from Silva.

How can you win a football game if you not even trying to put the ball in to the net?

 

[bol-uk]

TBF he thinks we are playing in red and white stripes today.........

He’s had a very average few weeks tbh

Although same could be said for the whole team I suppose

 

[Tin-Tin]

Pickfords kicking has got worse

 

[TheBigIguana]

No striker or hold up player really hurts us

It hurts worse that we are trying to play like we do have one. When we pass to feet we have created things.

 

[blue to the bone]

Horrible 45 again.
Need to change it up.
If Bernard is hurt put Richarlison left and dcl up top.

 

[hktoffee]

Bet no subs at half time.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Saints will score with the last kick of the half, then again in the first few minutes of the 2nd and we can all get on with our day.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Anyone remember the fella Richarlison we signed from Watford?
Why’s he not playing?

 

[peteblue]

On the plus side, Palace still lead.......

 

[hetion]

Mina, DCL and literally any semblance of a midfield.

To be fair maybe he's going to stop Gylfi being the furthest player forward and leaving a gap in the centre the size of the atlantic, but I don't hold out too much hope.

Cough.
