Southampton fight back from 2-0 down to beat Burnley and claim a crucial three points in the battle for Premier League survival.
It makes for an entertaining game when each team is playing that vaunted 5-0-5 formation. Midfielders are overrated and unnecessary.
Q: What's the difference between Burnley and a mosquito?
A: A mosquito stops sucking.

Well the important thing is: it sounded like it would work in your head, and you gave it a go. Good for you, champ!

Only female mosquitoes bite. Therefore, Mr Pedantic Pants, your attempt to be funny doesn’t work based upon your own “standards”.
Now Southampton can fully concentrate on the FA CUP, come on Saints!!!!!!
You beauty. Huge win Saints. Unlucky Burnley as you gave it a great go. I’m a happy man though. Phew
“That lifted Ralph Hasenhuttl's men up to 13th in the table, 10 points clear of the relegation zone with 10 games left” - who are we playing in the 2 extra matches??
8 games left
Sorry just realised you were commenting on the bbc reporters poor comments.
Eight in the league, two in the cup.
doesn't matter, we'll bet them to be extra sure of staying up :-)

You're such a low level troll, boring too.
You need to get a life if that's the only comment you are able to make. Go and watch your docudrama.. .
What a game of football! Burnley look good for a Euro spot and Southampton are pants! My Premier League predictions for this seasons grand finale are in a ahambles so I've had to make some changes:
1st Man City
2nd Man City
3rd West Ham
4th Burnley
And in relegation:
17th Southampton
18th Sheff Utd
19th Liverpool
20th Man Utd
1st Man City
2nd Man City
3rd West Ham
4th Burnley
And in relegation:
17th Southampton
18th Sheff Utd
19th Liverpool
20th Man Utd
I wonder where Saints would be if they had kept hold of all those great players that they sold ?
Bankrupt??
Saints have 7 games left to play, not 10, Mr Collins.
Why not both?
Why always so pedantic?

Get a life, Rocky Dennis.
Good 3 points. Certainly sweeter after being down 2-0. Now Spurs to trounce Newcastle will make the day sweeter

Be good if the journalist who wrote this knew there are 38 games not 40 in this PL campaign...
Danny Ings has found his level - mid table club. Couldn’t cut it at a big club like Liverpool despite given several chances.
Nice bloke though - good luck to him.

Well by your calculations should sign for Liverpool now no?
what a bell ,,, end you are ,, you give the game a bad name UTC
Absolutely correct. Decent player, but not good enough at the sharp end where it matters. Was found lacking when at Liverpool. So was moved on.

I hadn't realised the grammar police troll the site!
Burnley don’t deserve to be in the topflight. They give the Premier League a bad name.
It will be good riddance when they inevitably get relegated, along with Fulham, West Brom & Sheff Utd.

and who are worthy long term replacements?
Add Newcastle, Brighton & Southampton among others. If they don't buck up their ideas they will all be up for the drop, next year. Who knows if Newcastle or Brighton might go down this year.

Burnley are by far are the worst team to watch,hoof,hoof hoof,long ball yawn....
Broken record of yesteryear. Total football from Burnley.
Get in there Saint s True grit and Spirit
What a come back, I had them wrote off at two down. It's like someone flicked a magic switch, and the whole team had a syncronised light bulb moment "lets go forward and attack" instead of playing that dull, low rewarding, backward passing crap, and it worked. Well done saints.
Go and find a bridge to sit under you miserable waste of space
I've never seen so many cries for attention (help?) In one HSY. Step away from your keyboard for an hour. Get some fresh air.
I didn’t realise that there were 4 relegation spots.
Thickness is Drama Queen
well you live & learn everyday
It would be useful if you could occasionally make a few comments on the subject of football.
If you cannot write correctly, then don't write at all.

You need a psychiatrist A S A P
Eight in the league, two in the cup.
Loving it
This game reminded me of the 1979 fa cup final when Manchester United went 2-0 up and Southampton fault back to win 3-2. Great win for Pompey & on 36 points it should garantee another season in the top flight ?? ????
Need to brush up on your football knowledge, Utd played Soton in 1976 and lost to Arsenal in 1979.
Don't remember that game.
Are you sure?
Are you sure?
Magic mushrooms were around a lot in 1979.
Utd equalised to make it 2-2, cue much celebration.
Seconds later, Brady set Rix away, he then crossed, Bailey flapped at it and Sunderland stabbed it in.
One of the better perms to score the winner I seem to recall.

Obviously a Skate, only knows history prior to 1976
Socrates...wasn't you a rodent rat in films...Willard & Ben. And then someone stepped on the vermin and he died. Troll...

Why have you got a void where your brain should BE ??
Saints have limped through this season spending next to nothing. That's either very shrewd accounting or the sign of a club owned by a far Eastern business man with absolutely no interest in football!
Owners silent and short arms, like many. Chinese torture Roland
Sadly it is the latter. But the American who is the potential replacement owner is even worse - an asset stripper.
They lost over £70 mn in the year to June 2020, so not entirely surprising.
spent well on what they bought, young players like Dialo, Salisu, KWP - that's about a £45m outlay
Apart from the 30m on Diallo, Salisu and walker-Peters plus loan fees on Walcott and Minamino!

Am I being overly optimistic in thinking that we can win all our games bar one. Man City will be far too good in the cup final. COYR
We have more chance getting new owners with Passion . The Kat and Gao show is torture

Fascinating encounter between two best defenders in the league. Bednarek vs Tarkowski. Some polished diamonds ready to shine even more. I need my shades.
I think DocuDrama is bored! Bank holiday, Easter Sunday and you’ve all got is comment after comment regarding grammar! Such a shame. Enjoyed that game as a neutral, especially with Southampton on my bet slip!
Docu Drama queen, has forgot his medication
