Both teams are a bit sluggish, but I think we'll get the first goal and that will wake us up a bit. If it wasn't for van Dijk, I think we would already be winning by a goal or two.

Just lacking that killer touch upfront DS needs to be brought on early second half to give more movement up front.

JustDan · « **Reply #42 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:50:22 pm »

Sooo van Dijk next on our Southampton shopping list then?

Not quite at our best but we've been ok.. still by far the better team, naturally.

Please win.

Bus station st Marys!

Sturridge I think for Bob, we need someone who is clincal because the chances are going to be slim

Bus parking c*nts

It's not up to clubs to make it easy for us. We have to find a way of playing through these type of tactics. It will happen more and more, we need to be more clinical.

That Van Dijk is some player, he'll be at a top club soon

Warks Moustache · « **Reply #46 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:50:52 pm »

I would to see Clyne get on the ball more. He getting into good areas but Mane isn't passing to him at all.

If we keep playing the way we have the goals will come.

luckyluke · « **Reply #47 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:50:55 pm »

Standard post-internationals performance, wish they would fucking vanish and never come back.
Would have taken a shitty 0-1 before the game and would definitely take it now.

Redsnappa · « **Reply #48 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:50:58 pm »

Not quite with it.

That run by Can near the end missed by Clyne. Balls played though to Bobby too late.

Fucking hell though that lad Van Dijk is a rock.

Mind you, so's Matip ... coolness personified.

Sturridge needed here.

tough game. Some sloppy touches.

Still think we'll get the win

JackWard33 · « **Reply #50 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:01 pm »

Let's face it both our Brazilians look like they've flown halfway round the world - not sure why we had to start them both

Have to hope Saints drop off a bit in the second half as they're very well organsied

Learpholl · « **Reply #51 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:08 pm »

Seems to be too making "trying to make sure" moments today instead of working off of instinct. Mane's chance being the best example, should have taken it earlier.

martinsquirtle · « **Reply #52 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:12 pm »

Van dijk is class. Studge to come and knick a 1 nil

robertobaggio37 · « **Reply #54 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:16 pm »

Van Dijk should be next one we should be getting from Saints.

That said, Mane has been quite lethargic, should have scored.

red mongoose · « **Reply #55 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:41 pm »

I reckon the Kloppleganger is going to earn his wedge in this second half, having prepared them for this after the long back and forth to Brazil. Keep those hamstrings and groins loose, Austin.

Andy @ Allerton! · « **Reply #56 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:51:42 pm »

Very pleased - we've done very well against a Southampton team that have had a good half and are very organised.

If we keep that up, then we have a chance.

Southampton using the How Not to Get Battered Playbook: Defend deep and Leave the Boot in.

It's up to us to work our way around it. Loved the Southampton ironic cheerswhen they've been kicking the shit out of everything that moves.

Coutinho looks like he is a yard off his normal pace , mind you he has been rugby tackled to shit at times .....there's a win for us here if we step it up 5% ....that Dick Van Dijk lad is excellent

Firmino has been good, Coutinho rather less visible but he's been far from the worst of the bunch.

Really good game to watch. Its a good measurement as to where we are at regarding well organised gritty opposition...As long as we don't switch off...

Ste08 · « **Reply #61 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:52:54 pm »

Not at it just yet. Damn internationals.

Got options on the bench just need that one moment of magic.

Tobelius · « **Reply #62 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:53:03 pm »

We've had the control in midfield so far,theirs has looked pretty light weight and posed no trouble.
Hendo playing very well for us and if it goes like this in the 2nd i think we'll penetrate their defence a few times,Van Dijk has been excellent for them there.

Their level of hatred towards Lovren is a bit weird.

Red_Irishman · « **Reply #66 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:53:51 pm »

Fairly evident there was a international break. Could go either way this I think.

Firmino has been a machine today with his pressing. Phil looks like could use a rest though

Agree with this.

Anfield Ed · « **Reply #69 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:54:18 pm »

We definitely miss Lallana and his movement. I doubt Coutinho can last 90 mins so I'd bring on Origi and use his pace and strength. Then if we need a goal in the last 25 mins or so I'd bring on Sturridge. Can needs to step it up a gear too.

peachybum · « **Reply #70 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:54:47 pm »

Southampton are decent and at home. Pretty surprising to see them take a Burnley-eske approach.

Hopefully unlike that game we'll make better decisions in the final third and get the goals we need.

Grease his shirt at half time, the shirt pulling has been ridiculous. Clattenburg 🖕

To be honest Foster did well with the save in my opinion.

HeartAndSoul · « **Reply #78 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:55:35 pm »

Hate games after international games. We always look so leggy which is understandable. Our bench will be key in the second half

wemmick · « **Reply #79 on:** November 19, 2016, 03:55:37 pm »

Look all right so far. Lost a bit of rhythm from the international break. Southampton has been resolute in defense, but I still think we've got a goal in us.
