4-0 
Why are other teams so much more clinical than us?

Back when Southampton lost 9-0 at home to Leicester many clubs would have sacked their manager. Watford would, for example (but then they sack everyone). It seems that letting their manager stay on and work to improve those weaknesses has worked for Southampton.
4-0
I'm glad the Albion didn't spend £20m on a keeper.
Statistically speaking it's better to get absolutely tonked, say 9-0, than it is to lose a couple of games 4-0.
Teams that take one total schlacking tend to not get relegated.

Let's hope we can manage that this evening then!
I’ve said it before, Hassenhuttl is very impressive.
A question for NSC’ers, not just based on today would Ings and Vestergaard walk into our first 11? To me a yes, they almost always perform so well in their roles.

Ings 100%, he is a really excellent premier league player. He has so much class, it’s the reason why he went to Liverpool in the first place. His movement is almost second to none with regards to strikers in the premier league and he is a superb finisher. He gave our defence a lesson in the game we played at St Marys after lockdown. They’re lucky to have him IMO, he should be playing at a higher level.
I wouldn’t swap Verstergaard for Dunk, Webster, White or Veltman personally though. Never impressed me that much and whilst he has been better lately, the Saints fans I speak to have never been big fans.
And yes you’re absolutely right about Hassenhuttl, he is a very good coach.
Remarkably he’s executed today’s thrashing with Redmond on the bench. I think he’s a great EPL wide-man, consistent and so effective. Annoyingly, he always gives our RB’s a lesson each time he rocks up at the Amex.
Confidence from Hassenhuttl there and proved right.

Jack looked to be on his way down there anyway. Would love to see a very slow mo version of that penalty

Southampton ended up being lucky to win after going 4-0 up Football is a funny old game at times isn’t it.

I'm trying to work out if Grealish's last minute goal was genius or sh!t goalkeeping?
He's certainly a talent but seems to be off Southgate's Christmas card list along with Lewis Dunk.

Yes.
Villa do a Brighton. Some phases of good play, yet ship goals and lose the only stat that matters.

This Newcastle Everton game smells of dullness to me, been 15 minutes so far and I’m already contemplating a doze.
