Pleased for the players who came on and changed things but you can’t choose when you want to turn it on. It’s quite simple. 1st half vs United + second half vs Forest and you have a team performance worthy of the Premier League #SaintsFC

The year is 2025 - Southampton have just won a Premier League game with Paul Onuachu scoring the winner. That’ll do for me. Really pleased for him and Juric. Hope we can at least give a decent account of ourselves in games from now #SaintsFC

I’ve come to the conclusion that I love how competitive the Premier League is this season. On the right day, everyone can beat everyone. Apart from when you throw our team into the equation #SaintsFC

We might have stood half a chance with this football from the start of the season. Fully fit squad, pre season learning it, signings/squad made specifically for it. Focusing on off the ball work as a promoted team works best. As it is, it’s a wounded team put together for a

Can they give us half a point for winning the first half? #SaintsFC

Fernandes is a brilliant little player, isn’t he? Wise with the ball, ability to drive into space with pace. The makings of a real top midfielder in there. He’ll have a pick of PL moves in the summer I would think #SaintsFC

Could copy and paste from the last time it happened. Gone backwards since I posted this somehow #SaintsFC

Quite a nice feel to the Saints group today, from an academy view. Lallana (The past) helping lead Smallbone and Dibling (The present), who in turn are helping Robinson (The future) Trust in our own more because they understand what this club means #SaintsFC

Level on points, 2 wins to Derby’s 1, more goals scored, less conceded and (currently) a better goal difference by 15. SOMEHOW WE ARE NOT THE WORST PL TEAM EVER 😭 #SaintsFC

Feels like Champions League qualification, it really does #SaintsFC

BREAKING: Nottingham Forest have confirmed that Taiwo Awoniyi has undergone urgent surgery following an abdominal injury. The Nigerian forward suffered the injury after colliding with the post in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Leicester City.

This is absolutely key. A clear philosophy, but willing to make changes to suit the team in certain games. We haven’t had enough of that from our last two permanent managers. Think we’ve done well to get Still, and I like the way Spors is making his mark quickly #SaintsFC

Don’t even bother giving us hope Mateus, please mate #SaintsFC

Have purposely reserved judgement on Saints. However: - Horrendous defending for the goal - Anxious/no confidence going forward - Body language is the worst part imo Liking Fellows, but not much other than that. Hoping we just need something to fall for us #SaintsFC

Could be a huge result in the season. Big for Still, big for Stewart and hopefully big in terms of bringing the players together. Energy/body language early in games and game management need to be much better, as does Quarshie. Fellows/Charles/Wood positives #SaintsFC

My personal opinion is that Saints look much better. Really good to see so many players looking confident on the ball - loving the Charles/Jander partnership. Having said that, with the time we have on the ball and Derby looking there for the taking, take the win #SaintsFC

The difference in Shea Charles 23/24 compared to the Shea Charles we see now is remarkable. What an asset to have #SaintsFC

Some steps forward for Saints this week, but still not enough - opportunity to push on in 2nd half wasted after promise in 1st. Some players improving/bright, but some need to show up now. Need killer instinct in the final third, and signs are that’s not Downs #SaintsFC

Key for Saints is getting Finn Azaz firing. Potential to be the link between the back and front of the team while also providing a goalscoring/creative touch. Can only hope he hits the ground running after the international break and unlocks something for us #SaintsFC
