Saints to witness a goal on their own ground. Defenders to be in such shock they immediately concede. 1-1.

 

[Stevencc]

Arnautovic.

Dickhead.

 

[JimJams]

Yeah, glad I didn't bring him into my fantasy side for Zaha and a 4 point penalty. Also pleased he's not in my draft team.


Oh fuck.

Lil Pea brings WHam back from 2 down and a man down to 2-2. Saints fans have gotta be fuming.

Funny how Fonte didn't mind applauding the home fans after they won 3-1 last season....

Can't wait for us to have a solid back line again. Goalkeeping for their first goal was a complete joke. Defence ball watching for their second goal too.

 

[JimJams]

Cheer up Jamie, you won.

Goals at home. You don't see them everyday.

That was shocking. Forster shouldn't be our number one and I supported the contract extension, thinking that he would regain previous seasons' form. Also Redmond is pure shite. No way we should feel lucky to get 3 points at home against a West Ham side down to 10 men and being 2-0 up.

Some silly errors cost us this game, I've no issues with the red card or the first penalty as they were deserved, I thought the second penalty for a slight nudge was a poor decision.

Did seem soft but can see why the ref gave it - unfortunate given you came back into the game so well.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

I didn't think it was a penalty inside the stadium but it's stupid from the West Ham defender. He isn't even looking at the ball. He probably doesn't have to do it.

I think both sides will be in the relegation battle this season. Found it quite weird that Hernandez was playing left wing with Antonio upfront.

Weird that our fans decided to boo Fonte but applaud Antonio too.

Unfortunate for West Ham that Noble didn't get a red for his pretty awful challenge before the Arnautovic elbow.

As for the penalty, you rarely see them given, looked very harsh to me.
