    We'll lose this and Silva will walk/be sacked

    That’s a bit harsh. Watford are a bit crap right now, but I don’t think they’d lose to just one player.

    Very good ;)

    I'm unable to make the game today as I have caught this bloody bug going around. Taking advice and staying in bed for the next few days to recover.

    Is there anywhere online where I can watch the game?

    Crazily predicting 1-0

    Watford 1 - 2 Saints. Seriously hope I'm wrong, but no confidence in our defence at all, nor in our strikers.

    If we get bent over by half time maybe phub will stream the second half?

    Seeing Watson in the starting line-up, with the only other midfielder on the bench being Pereyra, shows how weak our squad is when you take into account the injuries.

    Second week in a row we’ve dropped a striker who scored in the previous match!

    ITS MID JANUARY AND NOT ONE SINGLE RETURN FROM INJURY?!

    What happened to Femenia?! Where is Hughes? Kaboul? Cathcart?

    It’s just an absolute joke. 14 days into the transfer window and Ben Watson is starting a Premier League game for us.

    P.S - Capoue must be somewhere signing his papers then.

    Maybe that is why they do not score often, they do not want to be dropped?

    Good to see that Lemina and Gabbiadini can't play against us due to being so heavily linked on the forum that it's like we're their parent club.

    Also great to see Silva keeping up the "score and I'll drop you" vibe:

    'Deeney, get on the bench! Capoue, out of my sight! I've told you what the punishment is for scoring, just ask André!'

    If it’s 0-0 on 85 mins I’m closing my eyes and ears.

    Redmond will do well to score today, he is not in their squad

    Gray up front on his own. Fuxake. Silva might as well have picked his nan.

    Excellent news. It'll be Tadic who excels instead then.

    Quickest player on the bench is Mariappa.

    Here's a theory for you. Maybe Gray was cupping his ears at Silva after scoring but his accuracy is so ***** he aimed it at the Watford fans?

    I'll go for a 1-0, an early goal and Soton continue their dire form

    Gray uncharacteristically fluffs it. Southampton score with a well worked simple finish..

    Probably best they take the lead to avoid the otherwise inevitable late collapse anyway. It’s nice to lose in slightly different ways, keeps it interesting.

    Silva should have been fired 2 weeks ago, the cup game and the no hope city game was a 2 week opportunity wasted

    We have the ability to look great, but more often we look poor. Can’t see us getting anything from this.

    End of the dream, end of the premiership we aren’t going to stay up , bye bye Silva

    All this I'll moan when I want, I'll boo who I want, etc. Yeah you have the freedom to do that. We also have the freedom to call you a moron for doing so.

    This isn't Silva's fault completely. I don't believe at this moment in time that this bunch of players would play for any manager. Something is rotting at the core of this club. Sack Silva, another manager may keep us up - but the same would happen within twelve months. It's time to attack the issue at source, whatever it may be. I suspect we have a four-tiered system.

    1. Board
    2. Manager
    3. Captain
    4. Squad

    And the level of disconnect between those tiers is alarming. There's no fight at all.
