[Calpol]

There is still 20 minutes left. Plenty of time for Brentford to win 4-3.

Corrected

 

[Robbo]

Brentford look pretty much out of ideas, that spell at the start of the second half blew them away.

 

[adam cool dude]

Martinez has been class at left back. They should keep this back 4 going forward.

 

[Droolinggimp]

I can see brentford sneaking a late goal.

 

[Shamikebab]

Hopefully Casemiro's injury isn't bad, we're going to be really thin on numbers again.

 

[Shamikebab]

I guess Mazraoui isn't out for a few weeks then

 

[Calpol]

De Ligt has played well today. Much more like what we expected from him. Martinez has been solid.
Fernandes has been poor again. Rasmus assist aside he's not really contributed much and a little more care at times could have given us some better chances. Rashford has been more disciplined positionally but he's done less in the final third
Even if we win this it's far from convincing and doesn't look sustainable.yet.

 

[Shamikebab]

I think Rashford has had a really good game, great cross for the first and he's covered really well for Dalot when he's made a run forward.

 

[C Kent]

Southampton concede in the 98th minute to lose 3-2 after being 2 nil up. Comical.

Agreed but it is a step in the right direction. Jose next week away. Going to be a massive ask to get a win there.

I’m always quick to criticise Rashford but I have to say that was a much better, more composed game from him. Tracked back well and covered a lot better than he has done previously. And that cross for the goal was just lovely

 

[Robbo]

This second half performance is the absolute minimum we should be expecting every week. When you have Rashford and particularly Garnacho running at teams they will always cause problems.

Sign of things to come? Probably not.

 

[Shamikebab]

Important win, showed good character to come out like that in the second half after the first ending like that. Dare we say showed signs of a plan and identity?

 

[bingham67]

No point doing it for one game got to do that second half every week.

It's great we got the win, just not good enough letting in 2 goals in the first place, especially at Soton.

 

[Sui]

Hope the news on Welbeck isn’t going to be bad

Ferguson going to have to step up something chronic!

 

[The_One]

Merino making first start

Sterling replaces injured saka on the right

Yeah, shoe in to be relegated - at this rate i cant even see them making double figures points wise.

 

[woppy101]

Just back from the game and holy ****, we could still be playing tomorrow and still not score, we couldn’t finish a sandwich today, massive pressure on Howe now as were now likely to have gone 6 games in the premier league without a win losing 4 of them.

 

[CliffyG]

No Odegaard, Saka or Martinelli and you can tell. Making very hard work of this.

Edit
Sterling is pony.
