On May 11, in the 36th round of the Premier League, Manchester City played 0-0 Southampton away. After the game, Manchester City defender Ruben Dias said that the turf at home in Southampton was too dry, and the Southampton Stadium administrator posted a message to respond.

Ruben Dias said after the game: "We have to be better, more energetic and faster. But it is not easy to speed up the pace because the turf is dry and hot in the sun. It is a pity that Southampton wastes time like this. They just want to stop the game, the slower the better, because the turf will dry, but we do need to perform better."

Southampton Stadium administrator Steve New Media posted photos of the turf being in perfect condition and wrote: "Ruben Dias, look at these 'sand's'. The stadium is watering in the early morning, before the warm-up, before the game, and even the entire halftime period. I admire your football ability, but you know nothing about how to be a stadium administrator."
