Sheesh even Tripper off with his passing. These lads need a vacation or something.

You wouldn't have known Wilson has been playing at all.

Wow we're actually hanging on here. Pope excellent again. We fully deserve this with the abysmal performance up front.

Bruno's passing has been well below his best recently. Everyone getting sloppy now. Watch them score a dodgy goal.

And again

Well feck me. I knew nothing good can really happen to us.

Becoming funny now this

Wilson was such a key part of our attacking play, obviously. Making strong runs pulling defenders and creating space. He just seems completely off it. It happens, he needs a goal from somewhere but we look miles off from being able to score The scandalous refereeing not helpin either.

Willock's end product has been shocking. Can't say Miggy's has been much better, just taking too much time and running into people. Wilson completely absent again, what the heck has happened to him? We are still by far the better side in posession. End product becoming a real concern now.

There's space to be exploited. Just need to find that sharpness in the final third

Oh God no Lascelles please

Just had my manager ask me if I watched the Cowboys vs the 49ers, 'football' game today. There is a proper game on right now bitches! And no you may not have that margin report today

Couple of Zaniolo rumours doing the rounds as well. Looks like Ashworth may be readying to play his cards

If we have a dedicated player thread he at least ought to be having a medical

This could be similar to the Palace game. My guess is Southampton will try to sit back absorb the pressure and knick a goal to take to SJP. That's how many sides are going to play against us now anyway, we just need to learn to cope with the new found respect other teams have now.

Really hoping to see Wilson improve and get back to his best then. Based on Howe's pre-match comments Isak is still not fully match fit or he may have started.

That's harsh. Between Fish's posh terms and the fact we get to see the team deploy actual football tactics on the pitch again, there's some catching up for the fans to do.

We attracted the likes of Trippier and Bruno in a similar situation last year. Massively bigger club though aren't they.... Conceded we weren't nearly as toxic a club, but that's there psycho fans for you.

The Danjuma hijacking his hilarious. Hadn't he just completed a medical at Everton? Couldn't be more of a shambles for them at the moment.

Never thought I'd see a defender as brilliant as him at this club again but Botman is already pushing it close.

Oh I totally forgot about the Marsielle game Wasn't able to watch it, football coverage in those days was comparatively limited. Aye but that was one we had a genuine chance in. Bloody Drogba.

2nd semi final we've been in since I've been a supporter. The other one, the FA Cup game against Man Utd never really felt like we had a real chance, Shola got a consolation that was about it. On a freaking working day as well ffs. Pushing out meetings as we speak Defensive 442 is NOT an appropriate topic for today, get a grip lads!

Well at least they play City next in the league.

Age alone doesn't equal potential. Gordon showed a bit of fire and drive in very shite team last year. So far he's done very little to show he can be anywhere near Maddison's level in the final third. The 40M would be mainly thanks to Chelsea/Man Utd blowing up the market for wide players. I'm still hoping there's no truth in this rumour.
