    That's all he had to be TBF. His job wouldn't have been to bomb down the flank like Bertrand does, just be solid. Job done.

    That was because before it was slow and ponderous play. Now it is like grease lightening and the opposition can't cope

    Solid is good out of position. Still better than any of the Toon team.

    How about the second, out jumping Hansen at the back post. Terrific game

    You can't moan at Djenepo for not attacking too much tonight. He was probably under strict instructions from Ralph to help out Stephens as much as possible. The left side just did a fill in job tonight so no complaints at all here about either of them or anyone else on the park. Let's all just revel in the fact that we're top of the ****ing league!

    sorry? Did you just say we’re top of the league?

    I think you’ll find that’s not quite correct, actually it’s

    Wow, what a fabulous day, made my evening.

    Man of the match between Adams and Walcott who has far exceeded my expectations. I thought he would be a useful sub no more.

    Everyone did their bit with McCarthy's save and Djenepo putting in all those tackles.

    My first experience of Saints top of the top league :).

    Now on 16 points with 30 games left to play. Our highest PL points total was 63 under Koeman where we achieved 6th. Definitely possible, although extremely difficult, to hit that level again.

    Part of me is frustrated that we are arent in st marys and are all missing such a good season but if we were to get back into Europe that would give us all something to look forward to in 21/22!
