Match Report

Ten Things We Learned From Southampton 1 West Ham 3

Bear in mind I haven’t actually seen the match, but here goes anyway!

1. We haven’t won at Southampton since 2000. It was our first win at St Mary’s
2. Our last ten Premier League matches – DWWWLLWWLW. 19 points out of 30. Time to get some perspective?
3. Another goal from Andy Carroll – his sixth goal in 16 games. England form?
4. Mark Noble’s goal is his fourth of the season. Nice to see him score a goal that isn’t a penalty.
5. This win puts us up to 9th on 31 points. I’d say this is roughly where we’ll finish. There’s a five point gap between us and 8th. Although if we beat WBA next week that gap will be down to two points.
6. Great to see Pedro Obiang score, albeit a somewhat flukey goal if Chris Kamara is to be believed. UPDATE: I’ve just seen the goal. Not a fluke at all! A magnificent strike!
7. Also great to see us coming from behind and them holding onto a lead without conceding.
8. I wonder how Kouyate, Noble and Obiang fared in central midfield.
9. Strange to see Lanzini dropped and Feghouli retained. How did he do today?
10. Super Super Slav, Super super Slav, Super super Slav, Super Slaven Bilic!

David Hautzig is away.
