"Post match relief" is right haha
I mean, it's 3 points on the opening, can't complain about that. No team really played well this weekend, so I'm not too worried about it. Nor am I worried about Coutinho being quiet. Saints did a great job of tracking him with both Wanyama and Schneiderlin, who were both brilliant.
I think playing Lucas-Gerrard as a double pivot is something that should be avoided at all costs. It has to be one or the other with either Allen or Can playing next to Henderson, who btw also shouldn't be shoved out on the right.
Lovren looks a top addition and Manquillo is going to grow into a very good fullback. I was a little disappointed with Skrtel today though. He cut out the simple stuff, but felt he needed to better keep his head once Southampton having a go at us. We buckled and in fact broke. The fingertips of Mignolet and Shane Long being Shane Long bailed us out.
