Henderson play at rightback after the 3rd substitute.

I know that feeling. Worst of all, losing to Liverpool, you know what I mean

Miracles do happen, remember Istanbul 2005? 3-0 down at half time against Milan. Fuh that epic game is still one of the best comebacks of modern football history. Honestly, I wrote Liverpool off but I was wrong

So I guess you are very happy? I do owe you 2 bottles of Chivas. Doesnt matter. If those liquor can smack you into becoming a more positive person, i would say the money well spent.

Your fair assessment is as good as a contaminated milk my friend. You were always preparing for the worst. That itself is a losing mentality to begin with. Of course you will disagree because I am fanboy and you are reality king.

Yup it's why I mentioned the Attaturk I.e. Where the final was held. You lot came back in Munich as well.

stay faith, remember fan that we still do not release our 30 goal scorer yet.

we need to bounce back quickly like arsenal. sad to say we haven't made much use of our good fixtures so far

Lol so now I got blamed for the lost? Lol. A losing mentality? haha Not preparing for the worst but i only comment on what I see. So now only u acknowledge the problem. Good, not to late to admit that. Though I already highlighted the problem after we beat Man U.

It's rele tough to keep it real here....

Should play all the players who lose the ball easily likes Sterling.. Suso hardly loses the ball, so again i hope BR put a big change in his line up against Man U

like where is Allen?

I get the criticism over the team's performance. It is what it is. Just as one win won't win doesn't mean we're on our way to the title, one defeat doesn't mean we're going to face relegation. We lost, take it on the chin and move on.

I may have to change my attitude towards this competition if we manage to get through MU because doing well in FA Cup will affect the schedule in the 2nd half more than first half of the season.

So if we are really hungry for a cup win, Carling may be a better option than FA Cup. I dont want EPL matches to be affected.

Thanx bro..Its hard but I try to be not so emotional at times. LOL. Try to analyze the game from an unbiased perspective and try to identify the strength and weaknesses of the our game.

Also, to those who turn the telly off..dont do that and support till the end..win or lose.

I dont want EPL matches to be affected too but IF BR decided to rest JE for this cup game..he better make sure its worth it we lost against soton.

My English must be really bad too. I guess you didnt understand me that well. I told you no one is denying the problems we had.

Do you really want all of us and the team to go into every game preparing for the worst? That's your agenda?

Seriously, see a shrink. That is sadist phase 2.

Plus, did I not say we were lucky to win all the 3 matches we won? Fanboy? Even though I said this loud and clear for weeks?

Unbelievable,

There's something wrong with our midfield IMO but I don't know why...

Is it because of the Gerrard-Lucas partnership or we're missing Coutinho?

The Xabi-Masch-Gerrard partnership seems way more balanced and comfortable.

Credit to Soton for a wonderful display of football, their spirit and vigor from start till finish is something that our players should emulate.

On a side note, I'm starting to pity Aspas with how the 'fans' are treating him right now. He clearly provided a good support role to Sturridge in the first half(better than what Sterling can and have been doing, at least), pulling defenders and creating spaces for Sturridge to run into, and provided a few good through balls. Gerrard clearly playing worst than Aspas today, but being the black sheep of the club nowadays, he has to take all the brunt for this defeat.

oi oi...chill down guys...we're still on top of the league

Chill. No need to get so agitated. I was actually calm watching the entire match.

I'm disappointed too, but not as much as you. These are the matches that makes u wonder wtf are they doing in training every day

Win, lose or draw is inevitable in a game of football. Players are not superman. A tactical error, a small judgement error resulting in a goal from Soton and the penalty decision that went against us made all the difference today.

Gotta admit our midfield was quite poor as Soton bossed it.

Gotta give credit to them for playing well too.

That's how i saw it too. Aspas did a lot leg work in the first half. Yeah he's built like a teenage boy but his constant movement and pressing kept pressure on Soto. But i think BR wanted some width because we had none from the fullbacks and Moses was isolated without support. I think Aspas was the only player dispensable at that time. There was no way BR would remove either Gerrard or Lucas. One is the captain, the other is the only reliable tackler in midfield. It's a crappy situation.
