    I don't think so. I think teams are wise to our high line and are exploiting it. Keeping the ball better will help stop the long ball

    All of our best matches last year were without much of the ball though.

    Yeah, what I mean is is losing the ball at bad moments. We look to counter so we fly up the pitch, if we lose the ball early in the move we are very exposed. Letting the opposition have the ball for long spells whilst we are in shape is fine

    This is 1000% better from Saints today - energy returning?

    i'm late to the party, but VAR helps us again. I've checked my BT Sports options, but I can't find a 'Balanced Commentary' option. There's a 'Spurs are playing someone' option, but there isn't a choice for talking about both teams.
