Your Plymouth Argyle v Southampton Match Reports

codge added 17:47 - Aug 19 Happy with the result but we gave away a goal once more that should not of happened.Overall there’s definitely room for improvement but it’s early days yet and of to a good start.Hope we can keep Che Adams as he looked really at home in this league and we definitely need him. Thought Stuart Armstrong didn’t have a great day in his new position but only time will tell.COYS.

SaintPaulVW added 18:31 - Aug 19 First half was fairly forgettable. Second half we came out and gave a passing masterclass to create 3 great chances. Resulting in a goal. Then not a defensive masterclass to concede straight away. Fairly even game but we had most of the play and I felt we deserved the win overall. Che kept on getting in the right positions and scored at the death. Even the Plymouth fans were impressed as they threw him some drinks as he celebrated in front of them lol. Thought Shea Charles and Adam A had great games, broke things up. Tella and Che also put themselves about a bit breaking up Plymouth's play. Sam AA looked good in the short time he was allowed. Good performance given where we currently are. I'm becoming a convert to RM's possession play. Really don't want to go back to the dark days of the last few seasons when at the end of games we seemed to retreat into parking the bus and just gave the ball back to the opposition to run at us.

Bawdrip added 19:38 - Aug 19 A good win against a team who lost only once at home all last season. Somewhat fortunate to go in level at half time as Plymouth just couldn't get the final ball right but second half we were well on top and deserved the win. I'll be gutted if Adams goes. He had a quiet first half but did well second half and adds much to our play. Overall a good performance especially as we were without Small one and Alcatraz.

Boris1977 added 20:06 - Aug 19 Surprised to win not surprised we conceded from just 2 on target shots. The forwards at the club are good enough for this league but need a decent CB. Still not convinced with the overall ownership or managerial set up but a decent start to a tricky season. COYRS

sidsaint added 21:04 - Aug 19 Nice to see us get some wins in August especially against a team like Plymouth who regarded Home Park as their fortress. Hopefully this will build confidence and set us up to get back to the prem. Good debut by Charles and surely after the other sales we must keep Adams.

Bowlercow added 21:28 - Aug 19 It was good to see Baz taking control of his six yard box after the endorsement RM gave him at the forum on Tuesday I am still nervous about our centre backs Theyale some good last ditch blocks but don't seem to read the game and cut out passes KWP looks a bit disinterested at times and then springs into life Ryan has become a liability A miss controlled clearance last week and an important slip this week How many more errors before Perraud is given a run A special mention for a player who is going to be a special player. Charles bossed the MF and was well supported by AA and SA Tella and Adams MUST be retained but I prefer Sam Amo to Sam Adozie Overall happy with what is being produced Let's get a home win next Saturday to put the cherry on the top

Block8 added 21:44 - Aug 19 Good result, not a good first half performance but much better in the second. I tend to have kittens every time a ball comes across the box and unfortunately so do our CB's. I'm also yet to be convinced by Manning particularly defensively. However Charles looks the part & AA was very very good today & maybe has found his position? I know we have money but Adams and Tella will be very hard to replace, if we can't persuade them to stay it may hamper our progress!

StEdmund added 11:55 - Aug 20 As sidsaint says Home park is something of fortress, Plymouth have won 21 of their last 24 home games, so this has to be regarded as an excellent result.

KriSaint added 03:36 - Aug 21 Considering Argyles' stats from the last half of last season and the beginning of this season - this was such a great away win. We were the better team on the day, I thought, but we could have lost with that shot on our post very late in the match. Everyone needs a little luck sometimes - we were due some luck - and to score the winner in minute 94 or 95 was so sweet. Great win. We march on. I love The Saints.

KriSaint added 00:43 - Aug 22 Our 17-year old Championship debutant O-O really stood out with an impact when coming on as a substitute. What a skillful dribbler. Young Charles' performance also very uplifting. Very good game I thought. Up the Saints :)
