Good build up just a shame about the cross from alonso

Great football from us. We are playing as Sarri wants us to. Win today and our lads confidence will grow. 

20 minutes in looks like the Leicester game redux.....huffing and puffing going nowhere.....let's hope the end result is different

We really realy need fullbacks/wingers who can deliver a decent cross.........

We need to score first.....then we will cruise.

No shots, some great build up

Southampton for me is playing great but so are we. Invite them a couple of times to push up, go past it and score with pace. 

Ross Barkley is such a terrible footballer. he has no off the ball movement and has no idea what combination football is all about...

Again we suck in the final third.....and Mora done Jack sh*t.

So Far, So Bad.

not sure why...we rarely have players in the box anyway, we all want to stand on the 18 yard line for some reason.

Same as usual so far. Lots of possession, but move breaks down as soon as we get into the final third.

Pace pace pace

stop slowing it down

Ahh f**king hell Willy......should have played Eden there.

That's a bit harsh...he's not playing too bad

Its still a must and always have been......Fergie made his butter that way. But yeah we just slow way down as soon we hit the final phaze.

prime example right there...Morata pulls it across...not one player in the box

Why do we stop on there 18 yd line

And most likely gone for the rest of the game....heres hoping he scores.

Why does Alonso keep stopping instead of playing the ball through to the man free on the wing? he's just killing our attacks.

Im baffled why we cant play direct footy.......pass pass pass is good to master.....but you cant live by it.

Our gameplay is becoming worse and worse. I thought we would've seen bit of sarri ball by now but its far from it, its just sideway passing with temo and creativity.

We are better from the right side imo. 

just wondering if we could see some more flicks from Hazard and Willian.....
