Yes, just you!Anyone else convinced themselves that when Lo Celso rocks up, he's basically going to be Diego Maradona v2.0?
Just me?

Really? You should pow-wow with thinktank as he loves him for some reason. IMO kids got nothing beyond striking a ball. He's mediocre in open play...at best.Love to have Ward-Prowse in our midfield.
Come on, that’s bullshit, we let them get numerous balls across our box from our left, the difference was they just couldn’t get on the end of something, we were no more defensively robust today than we were against Woolwich, Southampton just have shitter forwards.
We allowed less dangerous situations against Leicester.

To be honest, I hope Poch goes back into the dressing room, puts him arm around him and has a joke about it. Tells him not to make any more stupid mistakes and watches to see if he works his bollocks off in training.
We can't think like that anymore. If players are under that sort of pressure, they implode.
Plus, why is Aurier finished, when our Club Captain decided to try a Cruyff turn in the six yard area (again), and gave away a goal. Objectively, that was even more stupid.
I don't disagree that maybe we might need to drop Aurier, but we should never willingly shatter his confidence.
Ps - sry, didn't mean to disagree - fat fingers trying to work out the quote button.
He's slow, looks very heavy, and is a proven liability in giving the ball away in dangerous positions.Dier is huge. If he can stay healthy and get match fit, be it CB or DM, he’s important.
If someone is out for a while people tend to just toss them in the dumpster. Wanyama looks physically shot unfortunately but nothing I’ve seen from Dier indicates any fitness issue. He just had horrific injury/illness luck last season.
Trouble is how do we fill the hole. We really screwed up in the summer by not buying.
Bar the assist ,Eriksen was pretty limpWho didn't? I think everyone besides Aurier played a part
Great match for Ndombele. Really growing into the team. Love that goal scoring was his weak point and he already has 2 this season. Great eye for a pass as well.
Sissoko immense. Really found a place in this team.
Kane. What else is left to say.
Still didn’t like the tactics even in the first half. We need a right sided Son. Ndombele could be enough of a playmaker in a midfield 3 if we had a legit threat down the right side
And lol @ the tabloid bullshit about Chris and Jan. Not a sniff of it in the papers but some random on twitter puts it about and it's gospel
Southampton basically couldn’t complete a pass after he got on. He made a big difference just today. Obviously he needs to continue getting match fit, but he’s the only player on the roster physically and tactically capable of playing DM.He's slow, looks very heavy, and is a proven liability in giving the ball away in dangerous positions.
He will have to have a full match smashing it for me to regain any faith in him.
Seen too much rubbish from him for far too long.
Hopefully the wife will give you a battered sausageMan, the day is so much better when you win!
Can sit sit back and chill now with Everton City, then the Madrid derby and then MOTD.
few beers, chipper delivery - bliss!
happy Saturday lads and lasses!
Dier/Sissoko next to Ndombele with Dele/Lo Celso/Lamela next to Son/Lucas and Kane up top with Sessegnon /KWP as wingbacks works for me.Sissoko short term for me get Dier in the middle of the park and go back to that 3-4-3 we played in the season Chelsea won the league best we looked for me that
