Comment | Che Adams Linked To Leeds United
at 00:46:41
"My main criticism is that he is so one footed. There have been quite a few times when he has been in the right place to slot in an easy chance with his left foot only to stop to hit with his right. By this time a defender has closed him down and the chance has gone."
Agree with you 100%, 1962saint. Any half decent striker has to be able to hit the target with either foot. Despite the undeniable effort he puts in, I would not be too unhappy to see him go. |

I've never been particularly pro or anti RH, but respect to Colburn! He/she argues their case very well (both posts) and I'm finding it hard to disagree. |

Comment | Southampton At West Ham United The Verdict
at 12:42:04
Not going to comment on the season as a whole, nor the match itself except for one single incident which had me furious (and which I've not seen mentioned anywhere else). Nick has rightly commented on Vestergaard's lack of awareness for the Hammers' second goal, but take a look at his performance for the third. While Bednarek chases Rice desperately in vain, trying to make up for his mistake, Vestergaad is ambling back in the centre of the box, unaware or uncaring about the goal threat, making no attempt to accelerate and cover across for Bednarek until much too late, and even pointing and looking across to the opposite side of the pitch! Yes, we were 2-0 down at the time, but there is no excuse for that kind of unprofessionalism. To me, it ranks worse than the Redmond incident. I was undecided till now about JV, but on the basis of that one experience, he has to be part of any clear-out. |

Comment | Saints Will Play... All The FA Cup Quarter Final Details Here
at 20:23:08
It's been pointed out to me that there's a precedent for a team losing 9-0 in a season and then reaching the Cup final. Crystal Palace in 1989-90. They also avenged the 9-0 (against Liverpool) in the semi-final - which is a possibility for Saints too. Omen? |

Comment | Jan Bednarek Red Card Overturned
at 18:28:54
So was the red card rescinded completely or was it downgraded to yellow? Because if a penalty was the correct decision (i.e. JB committed a foul), he either attempted to play the ball or he didn't. If it was the first of these, he should be getting a yellow, if the second of these he gets a red. if the FA has deleted the card completely, it therefore implies there was no foul and the penalty was a wrong decision - which raises the question....Will Martial's dive be reviewed by the FA, given that no action was taken by the referee at the time and he presumably didn't record it in his match report? |

Comment | Southampton V Shrewsbury Cup Tie Is Off
at 14:55:01
So, with games cancelled and fixtures forfeited, could this be the year a non-league club (e.g. Chorley, who are playing a much depleted Derby this round) makes it to the final? Maybe even wins it? Stranger things have happened in the last 12 months, and not just in football. |
