Every Southampton fan will be able to tell you. Football supporters only look at the game through the lens of their own team and what their team could/should/did do. By assigning agency only to your players, you get to continue the illusion that only your club is in complete control of the outcome (which is why refs are so harshly treated, as a kind of external encroachment on this perspective -- they shatter the illusion).

Whether you think aurier is good or shite. Lack of CF. etc. Would all be made better by someone to break up and then link the play. Especially the last 20, a calmer head in there would have made all the difference. Winks just is not it. Dier cant run. And skipp is clearly not trusted.
Much as I'd love a proper LB, CF, RB and if I'm greedy, CB I'd swap the lot for a proper 6!
We defended well overall but Saints had good chances (Ings header and Tanganga clearance off the line before the goal).
Aurier with his customary brain fart to gift them the winner. He did play well otherwise tbf, he is just one of many we have that hold on to the ball for too long.
With the attacking positions we got into we should have been well clear before we inevitably conceded but with a front 3 of Son, Lucas and Dele we are never going to be clinical. So so wasteful.
Gio is fantastic, I'm just desperate for Ndombele to get into this team, hopefully with Dele dropped as Son and Lucas are our only wingers.
We didn't have the legs to stay threatening on the break after 70 mins and we just went into our shell. Jose needs a solution for this issue. It is probably just put your fucking chances away forwards!

Yup and Son/Moura missed too many chances. Also its criminal to be able to see the whole backline as an attacker and still end up offside.
It’s a shame we weren’t up 2-0 at halftime
I'd take fucking Sandro back at this point.
I guess two wrongs really do make a right.
Jose has just confirmed we're signing Lo Celso fyi.
I suppose the difference is, Son scores the goal... Aurier conspires to help concede one.
The lament of the Defender/GK... ONE mistake can lead to a goal...
You don't like it, don't be a defender!
We'll do them at the Lane, i am sure of it.
We are going back to Wembley this year.
Not sure if it will be once or twice though
Then hold the attackers to the same standard.
Sitting here going ''we lost because of Aurier'' is bollocks.
£20 and 3LP I reckon
FIXED!
Sanchez made 2 very poor touches near goal which fortunately did not get punished. Lloris seeing Dier ready to come on should have put that ball into touch to allow him to come on. missed chances up front. I am not one of Aurier's supporters but his error should not have led to a goal.
Dier was waiting nearly 4 mins to come on but the ball didn’t go out of play, Jose saw what was coming
Aurier didn’t lose the ball in a particularly dangerous position but lose it he did, why try dribbling through a double team when you’re tussling for control of the game.
No no, he and Leroy Fer have the down-jinx. Haven't they gone down every PL season they've played?
