It wasn't necessarily a surprise to see Saints lose at Liverpool on Saturday night, but it did once again reiterate the lack of belief and cutting edge currently running throughout the side.Given Danny Ings’ continued absence, you got the feeling Saints could have played until the next UK Bank Holiday and still not score!

It was another 'game of two halves’ for Saints at Elland Road during the week.Despite playing pretty well in the first 45 minutes – but yet again not taking their chances – Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side eventually lost 3-0 to Leeds.

As Britney Spears once said….."Oops!...I(/we!) did it again!"Yes, sadly, for the second time in two seasons, Saints succumbed to an embarrassing *-0 loss. This time it was Manchester United who basked in the glory of a record-equalling score line.With a number of mitigating factors at play – including an early (but fully justified!) red card, numerous injuries to the squad and an inept refereeing performance by Mike Dean (quelle surprise!) – it didn’t feel as much of a shock as it might have done otherwise.In this bitesize TSP147b (this time the ‘b’ stands for b*ll*cks!), Ben Stanfield (Host), Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10) and Simon Peach (PA Media – who witnessed the collapse first-hand….!) console each other by reflecting on the significant talking points from Old Trafford.The big question now is whether Southampton can recover from yet another *-0 loss?Let’s hope so!! #InRalphWeTrustWeb: www.totalsaints.co.ukE-mail: [email protected]: @TotalSaintsPodFacebook: Facebook.com/TotalSaintsPodPatreon: www.patreon.com/TotalSaintsPodcast Hosted on Acast.
