They were totally shocking. Their midfield is so so bad and the defence too. Good teams will take them apart, no matter how many RVP scores.

I have never been more confident of beating them in the derbies than I am this season.

About as good as our defense so far this season.shaky at best but i do think they'll lose a few more games this year.

Just fucking knew it as soon as that equaliser went in where the game was going.

That fucking commentator though, URGH. I just wanted to shoot him in the fucking head. Likening that win to City winning the league in the same fashion, calling them Manchester(FUCKING STILL) and praising every fucking thing they did, even when Rafael launched at that Southampton player, it was his enthusiasm to get the ball back, not a fucking flying tackle that we've seen City players red carded for.

It should have been easier for Southampton when Scholes came on, but they just retreated to their own penalty area & started kicking the ball away.


They took lambert off so there was no one in the scums half to receive the ball. If lambert had stayed on they would of won. He bullied every player that tried winning the ball .


It's one thing bringing on a smaller, faster forward to send him thru on some counter attacks, but then lumping the ball on his head/in the general direction of Vidic is fucking imbecile.

They had a numeric advantage in midfield all game, but suddenly, when in front, chose to lump it to a midget. I would've been glad to see that stupidity punished, if the scum weren't the beneficiaries.

No sympathy for the Saints, they could've at least made it a game going into the last 20 but the manager just gave up and decided to try and hold out. I was listening on the radio and it seemed all Southampton who should've gone on to win it. Instead, they decided to sit back and try and soak up the pressure. Ridiculous idea.

The game did show how vulnerable United are though, only putting real pressure on Southampton when Southampton let them. Those changes allowed Taggart to throw caution to the wind and instead of Saints fans singing all the way home, their manager just left a flaming turd on their doorsteps.

United sounded all at sea yet somehow carve out a result. That's what irritates me, why put on a good show to then bend over and take it up the ricker like they did? Defeats the whole principle of sport.

I actually believed it wouldn't be as bad this year but i was wrong. They have kicked the propaganda machine into overdrive and its worse than ever. I haven't heard a single positive about us and there have been a few small ones and not a single negative about them and there have been fucking loads.

Looks like it will only end when taggart fucks off i think.

Rags looking very average at the moment. What shall they do when they come up against quality opponents or when RVP or Scholes don't turn up for them? Thank God we have depth and don't rely on 1 person for goals.

Also, being Zambian, I was not impressed with the commentators, they kept on calling Mayuka 'Mayuma'

Fucking cunts. Watched this with 3 rags and saints were all over them. At 2-1 after van payrise missed the pen saints could have had 3 or 4 but they go and take off ALL 3 of their front line and try and defend. Are they idiots?

It was like Norwich last season, when will they learn you keep hitting them otherwise they'll sneak something out of the match - look at Everton last season, kept going & going, look at how many we scored at the end at the swamp - its sitting back on what you have that kills off teams against them

This is the real sickener, isn't it. Most opposing managers never fail to pick out the positives from a defeat to the Rags, the general sentiment being they gave it a good go and no one expected them to get a result out of the game anyway.

Respect is one thing, but deference is not on.

I've watched the game until RVP scored his first goal, after that cunt who injured Sergio had a pathetic display. He was so biased that it was hard to watch.
This will happen again and again with them and with teams. They will roll over and wait for them to score. The rags are beyond shite, no pace, not nothing, but the same media myth that takes them up in the air. At the moment, they are more pathetic than Arsenal, but they will be up there this season.
