Today's games

[Bordeauxclaret]

No I can't see us re-signing him

Shame. You can only imagine how good he’d be now if he hadn’t suffered several awful injuries.

[tiger76]

0-1 Barkley

Another assist for Grealish.

[chekhov]

Terrific goal that. Beautiful cross and finish.

[Elizabeth]

Is there anybody who has a fantasy football team without Grealish in it ?
The movement of Cash’s shorts is the evidence it came of his thigh , lucky guy as arm away from body

For a moment i though this read .....Is there anybody who has fantasies with Grealish in it ? Elizabeth ?

[gsyclaret]

commentator just said Chris Wood stole the points, surely he meant WON the points. prick

I think he’s got a point to be honest.

[Bosscat]

I agree, gsyclaret does have a point. The commentator is a prick

Don't go to sleep when you are playing Burnley

I was more interested in the movement of Cash’s shorts

They have to say that, they are commentating on a match being watched by lots of Villa fans, so they play to the audience.

Tomorrow against Chelsea, the same commentator will probably be enthusing about how we won in the face of adversity, due to our indomitable spirit.

The best thing to do is ignore both statements, or if that isn't possible watch the game with the sound off. You'd think with all the options on audio now, that Sky would have clicked onto the option to watch a game with natural stadium sounds, and NO commentary at all.

Cash & movement in shorts.....hope Mrs Aclaret isn't getting ideas

[gsyclaret]

Two Villa players just tackled each other and got a free kick, the VAR bloke must be asleep

[DuckworthsEA]

Fair play to him. He’s deserved it over his career.

Sorry mate I’m not sure what you mean by that?

[tiger76]

70 minutes in, and not a shot on target from Saints. You can't score if you don't get efforts on target.

Edit 1 shot on target now. Good save by Martinez.

[Aclaret]

Lee Mason doesn't get any better does he

[Bordeauxclaret]

Sorry mate I’m not sure what you mean by that?

He signed a contract with us, delivered what we expected and more. Outgrew us and was always going to have the chance to better himself.
Injuries scuppered his chances at Liverpool.
Went to Southampton, delivered what was expected and more and has outgrown them so unlikely to opt to stay.

[gsyclaret]

I think he’s got a point to be honest.

Thats more than Villa got

[tiger76]

How on earth have Saints not scored, they've bossed the last 20 minutes, but they just can't bury their chances, TBF Martinez has played well when called upon, and he's heading for another clean sheet.

[Vegas Claret]

Farce of a VAR offside again

[claptrappers_union]

With offsides, can we bring back ‘level’?

[Wile E Coyote]

very harsh on ings, sleeve line versus arse of villa defender

[Aclaret]

VAR.....please can we have advantage to the striker like it used to be. These rules are killing football.

[Vegas Claret]

footy is supposed to be entertaining, they are doing their best to rule out perfectly good goals, **** VAR

[chekhov]

Another ******** decision by he var.

[chekhov]

I meant to say bo//ocks.

[Wile E Coyote]

we all get the need to use technology to scrutinize for fairness, but this is shambolic. Apart from taking the magic away from the fans after a goal is scored.

I took him out today. I also took Wilson out.

[Vino blanco]

Grealish and Pope should be automatic starters for England.

[Elizabeth]

Get them back in straight away longsider

[tiger76]

Is this person on the wind-up, taken from the BBC text feed, they surely can't be serious can they.

Talk of 'unfair' VAR decisions merely disguises Southampton's myriad problems and plays into the overblown myth that is Ralph Hasenhuttl. Ultimately the guy is miles out of his depth and needs to go.

Hasenhuttl has done a great job at Southampton, and if 11th isn't good enough for a club of their size then what hope has any manager got, good grief it was only a couple of months ago they topped the table fleetingly, and their injury list is vast for a club with a relatively small squad, what happened to patience and giving the manager a chance to actually build something constructive.

Movement of Cash on Shorts hmmmmmmm Laundering Money

[Claret]

Just seen 2 daft VAR decisions on MotD that went against Southampton. Ings unlucky to be called offside and the handball penalty decision was just inexplicable

[Hibsclaret]

Well spotted.

According to the lawmakers the handball isn’t because it was thigh first, apparently.

The offside is offside...no argument about offsides because is it either is or isn’t

[Claret]

It was as good a save as one of Nick Pope’s

[Elizabeth]

It’s unacceptable to have goals disallowed for offside in the way they are currently being.

True! but that's not down to VAR it's down to the rules not favouring the attacker in a tight call., So if they went to see more borderline goals awarded then change the rules.
