    When I saw the lineup my first thought was Rondon was injured because HRK was starting. For most of a boring first half I couldn’t understand it. Five minutes into the second half and I knew why. HRK doesn’t do ordinary goals! We really should have wrapped it up but Mozza headed straight at their keeper when a glancing header a la Rondon would have gone in. After Virgil got sent off we should have scored twice. Comical defending by Soton was cleverly matched by total ineptitude from us in front of goal. Throughout the match some of our passing was awful. Fletcher being the main offender but Phillips tried for the spectacular several times when a cross or pass into the area would have been better. He was IMO our MOM as he ran himself into the ground but was closely pursued by Yacob and Dawson. Foster had a rest day after his efforts at Arsenal! What got me most about today was that when we attacked quickly we looked a decent side. Why do we have to go behind before this happens? Happy New Year everyone.

    I know HRK hadn’t had much game-time till now, but the minutes he had had, he’d put himself about OK, so good luck to him and well done, and well done to TP to clocking that Rondon was off the pace in training. Happy New Year.

    I agree with you Uncle. Fortunately for us, though, Southampton were awful.

    At the end of the Liverpool game, 0nly 3 days ago, they looked tired and beaten. And the schedule rendered them much the same today. Indeed, in the second half particularly, they gave the ball away shockingly easily and we really should have scored a few more goals,

    The 3 points were key and 3 more on Monday would be tremendous.

    Hopefully our owner will now allow TP to add the quality we need to consolidate our position.
