Saints played 4 4 2, a goal kick went up the field instead of to a defender, they stopped the tippy tappy ineffective passing , got the ball forward and just played the game, instead of sticking to a theory. Who would have thought that crosses in the box and forward passes enabled us to win a game 🫢 |  |

Yes, by playing forwards instead of sideways! We were only poor because we kept going sideways and backwards with a back 5. Tonight, all the goalkicks were up the field, and we won. If you attack the oppositions's goal you win! Long may it continue. | |

Sorry 1 team we looked fragile and started to come apart in the second half.
We need a team that can stay strong for 90 plus minutes, I didn’t see that tonight.
Pleased with the 3 points but far from convinced. |  | | |

Solid gritty win...just what we needed.
1. Better with 4 at the back.
2. Wellington better defensively than no Mannings land
3. Ross Stewart a focal point, outlet. Made they're CBs panic.
4. The keeper saved us near the end from a Bamford shot that Bazunu wouldn't. He's looking better.
5. Stephens came in and looked good , played like a leader.
6. Downes and Jander put in a shift.
Result. A win. | | | |

I’m not sure if you are aiming that at me? But we were not great. Our shooting has gone backwards. Shef Utd were poor and offered nothing until Banford should have equalized.
But hopefully this will get us going again and at least give some confidence going into Sunday. Also good to see Stewart back, he must start on Sunday if fit. |  |

You saw a different game to me Grumps. I agree with the manager for once.
'Pure desire to win' - Eckert
Southampton boss Tonda Eckert told BBC Radio Solent:
"After a long spell (of not winning) the first win is always the hardest.
"We had to dig very deep and in the end it was just pure desire to win that game of football.
"It comes from so deep inside to grind out games and credit to the boys because they put so much into every minute of the game.
"Today we were much more direct and we got the ball forward a bit quicker, Ross Stewart was very good up front for the 60 minutes he gave us today." | |

But for some poor finishing it could easily have been four.
We looked far more comfortable with four at the back but still looked a bit fragile as they pushed on. Hopefully this win increases confidence for Sunday and onwards 🤞 | | | |

It wasn't completely convincing but we did ground out a result and it was a more entertaining game. Sheffield united should have got an equaliser at the end, but it was a fresher performance, more energy, and much better than we have had recently but not outstanding or anything like that. | |

Not going to get carried away as we always seem to do well against Sheffield United for some reason.
But we look much better with Ross Stewart in the side.
Brilliant save from Peretz at the end from Bamford; shite defending led to the chance, mind. Would have been doom and gloom on here if that had gone in.
And now the world looks a better place. |  |

Much better. Sky commentators so bad, the bloke saying throughout match we were playing a back 3 with fellows and wellington wing backs, he basically looked at the team sheet and decided that was how we were playing instead of using his eyes to see it was a back 4. |  |
