Southampton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

[tony0379]

Prefer Son.

Assistoko has improved for sure

 

[nightgoat]

He cant see it because Wanyama is a favourite and people are blinded by some misplaced love.

Undroppable even though he's regularly our weakest player. Completely at fault for the goal, both in giving away such a stupid free kick, then ignoring Van Dijk's run. But still the acolytes won't uncover their eyes.

We are genuinely awful to watch this season, there is absolutely no cutting edge or impetus. I would hazard a guess that we take less shots now than under AVB. Wanyama just shouldn't be a first choice midfielder for us and to play with a 3 of Eriksen, Alli and Sisokko is very negative. Surely the management can see this, surely!

Eriksen, Alli and Sissoko is negative?

Am I missing something here?

 

[tcyrus]

Because people have their pre-set ideas and can't bear to change them despite the evidence in front of their eyes.

what game you watching ?

 

[youngyids]

Jesus. Reading your posts on here sound like we were 3-0 down to Sunderland right now. Lighten up! IT's not been a perfect half, but apart from the opening minutes we've completely controlled the game and had some chances as well. Jeez

 

[The Apprentice]

Eriksen has been absolute shite take him off and put Winks on as AM

He's our best player and currently the only one pressing and offering himself as an option to take the ball off one of the many trundlers we have.

Get one of the tractors off and replace them with someone that Eriksen can interchange with.

 

[Bus-Conductor]

Wanyama is having the mare. And Sissoko has been our most dangerous up front. the Mousas set up our goal. Weird that you would want those subbed

Come on, Redmond's arse set that up. Sissoko has given us nothing. I wasn't Redmond or Boufal's biggest fan but I'd take either of those over that fucking juggernaut.

 

[nedley]

Kane really is getting zero service.

Yep. But when he has had the ball he's done very little with it.

 

[paulcumpstone]

Seriously... watch again... this is all just typical week in week out bullshit!

Really?? I can remember at least 4 passes he just pass straight to southampton players when attempting to play through the lines.

Bollocks. He's been our best player that half.

 

[DEFchenkOE]

We play so slow most of the time, need to get some tempo in our game.

Eeeeeejit.

 

[nedley]

Nice positive start.

 

[CowInAComa]

I think we've got this.
Think we are on course to grind out a 2-1

 

[yusrisafri]

According to the 442 stats app he's received the ball 8 times. The least out of all of our players. Only Rodriguez and Forster have touched the ball less on the pitch.

So you're wrong I'm afraid.

Thats where you dont know your football mate. Striekrs are the ones that get the least of the ball, but are expected to make full use of the minimal amount of time they get it. Half of the time a striker's role is to run into space, drawing players away, and not necessarily getting the ball from teammates. Hes done none of that.

Then watch the passes leading to the goal...

 

[Bulletspur]

Boufal is going to score. You read it here 1st

 

[Mustard]

Southampton are a good footballing side but we are looking a lot more dominant now.

I feel we will look better once Lamela is back, too much brawn at the moment.

Let's hope we don't have our usual second half drop off

I honestly think our biggest problem is not playing Dier where Wanyama is.

Such a waste of a world class talent in that position.

Clearly

You mean like he did just then...
