Fancy us the hit them on the counter attack but we're inviting them on too much, especially when there are clear holes in our defence.

we don't win the ball back quick enoughRooney, lol.Even Rooney looks a little bit like a footballerFellaini keep up the good work son.
Very surprised that she admitted who she was!nearly connected with mata.How we doing? Just got inYou are missing the high possession stats aren't you?
High possession. Zero shots on target. And all that...
possession
Come on MartialNot entirely sure why Rooney tried to float it in to the shortest player on the pitch, who was also surrounded by very tall players.We are just a fraction slow going forward, I think a goal is coming.Fecking game raising cnuts Southampton. Playing out of their skin.Rooney looking goodMartial seems a tad bit slower than last season.Weather has turned my Sky picture into one of those magic eye puzzles. Who is the boat playing in midfield?
Glimpses but Southampton look more threatening overall.We are doing well and going forward with purpose. People are just too used to LVG's possession style, thinking we are doing bad at home, it's better to let them have the ball so we can counter.Pogba playing very well.Martial still has that atrocious second touch.Martial is half asleep.Pogba is so strong, there's no muscling him off the ball.Pogba
Martial is a striker, not a wingerFonte is decentMartial has been poor so far, hope he gets over this blip and something back to the player we saw last season.
I don't. We look slow as feck in attackMartial is definitely not 100%We haven't played bad BUT we need to remember that we are at home and we are playing Southampton lolMartial can't find him seld yet.fecking hell, Martial looks incredibly rusty.Poor from Martial thereNot a great start. It feels like we're still a little behind in sharpness. It'll get better.
Yeah, you can see he's getting frustrated at himself at times.
Is he? mmh Martial looks half the player of last season.Martial looks like he needs a week off.
Damn, COYR!
You say that as if Southampton haven't turned this into an away banker in recent years.Southamptons movement is pretty good, can see them having a good season.
Pogba's a beast.Everyone looks to be not match fit.- Status
