I managed to catch it this afternoon and whilst the decision was shocking. I think as saints fans we have to hold our hands u and say it was a blatant penalty too. If they had been given then anything could of happened.
Yup. Berty was on a yellow when he tackled. Down to ten men and maybe 1-1. However a draw was fair.

Bloody wet though. :rolleyes:

Respect the point
Anderson again! Cracking volley

Huddersfield really got a lift fron their victory last week

We're an OK side but not a winning side as yet. I think next season we'll destroy teams like Huddersfield but this season is definitely going to be a transitional season. Yesterday too many having a 'quiet' game - Rice, Arnautovic, Zabaleta....just got to chalk it off to a bad day at the office and go again, just a pity it is City.

Was always a transition season

Can’t change too much at once

Chambers should be off for that.

Two footed.

Was surprised by the commentators discussion, looked a disgusting challenge to me... Echoed the Birmingham challenge that broke that arsenal fellas leg a few years back.

I’m glad we pulled out the running for Bernard , lot of wages for a player who looks lightweight

Chelsea have done everything but score. Alonsos technique is amazing

Thought ref was poor didn’t have much to do but got most wrong.

Gomez should have been booked earlier on but the one he booked him for mitrovic was clearly pulling his shirt.

The offside was very tight. But ball was moving at free kick for Liverpool’s goal.

VAR might not have sorted the offside but would the moving ball.

Wish we had at times. Don't understand how Lookman is below Bernard and Walcott in the pecking order, has looked so impressive whenever he's been on the pitch and has done it again today. I've been impressed with Marco Silva but continue to disagree with his team selection in regards to the front 3. I'd either like to see DCL right, Lookman left and Richarlison central or Lookman right, Richarlison left and Tosun central but he continues to pick Bernard and Walcott.

Only caught some of the highlights of the Chelsea game but there looked some ankle busting tackles going in and one that looked a clear red card , plus an apparent head butt ? Sounds a nasty game

United utilising the classic Mourinho parking the bus -> hoof to Fellaini tactic and it's working about as awfully as you would imagine. If it continues like this it could be 5-0. The first goal was an inevitability.

Can only imagine what Red Nose is thinking watching Man Utd attempt to park the bus against City

Dominant first half for City but not been as good since the goal. Still threatening but quick interplay had slowed down a little. David Silva has been sublime though, best attacking midfielder in the world for me.
