A win is a win is a win. Great start to the season, onwards.

Turtyturd · 17-08-2019 03:53PM

One game closer to having the best keeper in the world back.

j8wk2feszrnpao · 17-08-2019 03:53PM

Phew.
Cruising all 2nd half, until a moronic act.

Utopia Parkway · 17-08-2019 03:53PM

Grinded it out. Not at our best yet. Might just have to dig out points until we play ourselves into form.

17-08-2019 03:53PM

Thank feck for that, break for the boys please, they look shattered...

klose · 17-08-2019 03:54PM

I think after 120 minutes midweek and an away game the following Saturday a win of any sorts would do and we got that. It was plain sailing second half untill Adrian's idiocy but sh!t happens.

martyos121 · 17-08-2019 03:54PM

Really should’ve been a clean sheet, but a win’s a win at this stage.

I dread the thought of Arsenal coming up against the high line we’re playing though, I hope it isn’t a permanent thing because they have a serious front line with bags of pace.

kingshankly · 17-08-2019 03:54PM

Just play Alison in goals and let A defender kick it out

17-08-2019 03:54PM

Nice one. Delighted with that 3 points.

Harry Palmr · 17-08-2019 03:54PM

Still a good three points, I'll be watching for that error from under the duvet behind the sofa between my fingers on MOTD

NukaCola · 17-08-2019 03:55PM

All about the win and 3 points at this stage. Would have been a comfortable 3 points only for Adrians mistake. Hope he learns from it but Alisson cant come back quick enough.

rob316 · 17-08-2019 03:55PM

Fantastic win given they were playing till all hours in turkey Wednesday night.

Plenty of time for good performances to come, nice to see no change in mentality to last season, still grinding out wins.

shamrock55 · 17-08-2019 03:55PM

Much better in 2nd half, tbf while a crazy decision by Adrian he actually had a good game today so wouldn't slate him too much
We were extremely poor first half though, a wks rest is very welcome I'd say

How have youse gone so ****e at the back, and I mean in general so far this season!

“youse” is more offensive than shíte to be honest.

Osmosis Jones · 17-08-2019 03:56PM

I was almost getting ready to praise Adrian for a good game too.

Absolutely brainless mistake, he was under no pressure at all, plenty of time, he didn't scuff the kick or slip or anything, the ball wasn't moving fast or bouncing, he straight up just kicked it right at Danny Ings.

Anyway we won, looked much better in the second half, Southampton had given up once Firmino scored.

SlickRic · 17-08-2019 03:57PM

Anyone who complains overly about that has been brainwashed by the standards of Pep's Wall of Money, or have no perspective on just how far we've come in 3 years.

That is a champions' victory, and it would be described as such in any era other than City's 100 point a season era, where anything other than cakewalks against opposition outside the top 6 constitutes a crisis.

Insanely good week to be a Liverpool fan.

You cant legislate for that nonsense from Adrian.

Fúcking delighted with that win considering the exploits midweek.

All about the win.

On we go.

We're not going to keep many clean sheets until Alisson comes back. There's no point people expecting it.

Look, we got away with it, thats the main thing, lads are in a heap after the week we had, sometimes you just need a bit of luck and this team has learned how the close out difficult games like that...

Utopia Parkway · 17-08-2019 03:59PM

Great pass from Adrian. Straight to Ings’ right foot. Didn’t even have to break stride.

MD1990 · 17-08-2019 04:00PM

Great win.Very good 2nd half.

Atm we are playing in spells. Last season was similar although we were worse in attack & better in defence. Other way round this year.

Yeah, great reactions to make the save from Matip shortly before his mistake.

Remember that Allison showed equal dumbassery in his 2nd or 3rd game against Leicester last season. Obviously I'm not saying they're anyway equal in terms of talent but it's possible for anyone to make a mistake.

This isn't the time nor place for your common sense.

Potential Underachiever · 17-08-2019 04:03PM

Should have been a cruise only for the hapless Adrian.

Good in the 2nd half, abysmal in the first.

Oxlade came into the game well, he looked decent 2nd half.

Agree with an earlier post Salah is useless at free kicks, he shouldn't be taking them.

Good goal from Firmino to make up for the howler of a miss.

Mane, class as usual.

That Valery for Southampton had one of the worst performances I've seen, useless.

They are absolutely powder puff at the back though still from what I saw against Burnley.

Adrian was good until the brain fart. He'll have his wings clipped for that no question.

FixdePitchmark · 17-08-2019 04:04PM

Good result - but I guess it is how far we can get without too much damage till Allisson is back. Liverpool game is so about fast ball out and he can't do it. He can't even get the ball out quick for longer balls on break.

I'm never the optimistic type - but with our defense looking bad and out keeper a liability , hard few weeks ahead. We probably will drop points.

TAA losing ball too much , Robbo a little off his usual self , VVD ok, Matip doing very well.
Gomez was hopeles the other night.

shamrock55 · 17-08-2019 04:04PM

Let's hope spurs can get at least a point now

A sentence I remember reading all too frequently from the days of Mignolet and Karius. As long as his brain farts aren't as frequent as those two's we'll be okay.
