    I did a double take for the 3rd goal to make sure I wasn't watching a replay of the second <laugh>

    Really enjoyed that.

    Amongst some top performances, JWP as always and great to see Armstrong back to his best, from most of the team, have to give a special mention to how good Perraud was. We rave about KWP & Tino but Perraud was on another level tonight. Outstanding.

    We have achieved the impossible....
    We have replaced the worst RB in our history Aurier with someone worse

    Some great performances tonight, hard to pick anyone out but I thought Ely had his best game in a Saints shirt by a country mile.
    Bring on United?

    Now you're just trying to be reasonable. I bet one of your ancestors was telling William the Conqueror not to start a fight with Harold.

    Chap watching on Sky said Spurs didn’t deserve anything. Pointed out our 23 shots v 8 for Spurs. Added that he’d written Wow on his notes twice and that JWP was the best deliverer of the ball in the PL.

    Safe to watch MOTD tonight!

    That was an unbelievable performance, tonight.
    The quality first half would have troubled any team in the league. Second half looked as though we were going to fall into our usual trap and rue the early missed chances but, as someone else has said, the manner in which they scored their second goal worked for us. It gave us that bit of fire we had lost.
    I loved the bit in the added time, when FF collected the ball and fell to the ground.
    A Spurs player must have said something to him as FF just turned his head and shouted “**** off”.

    I'll go through the last phase of the game from my POV.

    1. 2-1 Spurs. Just sheer fury at the referee. Was such a blatant foul on Broja. Then I was just gutted because a loss seemed inevitable after the brilliant first half.

    2. 2-2 Relief and a feeling that justice had been served.

    3. 2-3 Absolute bedlam in the away end! Not going to forget that moment in a hurry. Just pure joy and everyone going absolutely nuts.

    4. Disallowed goal. Ah bollocks but still a point is a good result. Hang on.....
    YYYESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! Absolute scenes in the away end again!

    5. FT. I ****ING LOVE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!

    The difference this season being turning the regulación defeats of previous seasons into draws thus creating the confidence for a result like tonight. Very pleased for everyone here! Enjoy the rest of your evening!

    We looked like a complete team tonight and that is our strongest XI with the only question being whether Redders comes in for Mo El, but if the latter plays like that then he has the shirt. The most impressive thing was the balance of the team and I think that the two FBs should both start moving forward and it's great to have Stuey fully fit again and driving the team forward. Armando and Che both scored again and Mo El is now making positive contributions to the team.
    JWP is starting to become a complete midfielder and his two assists were top quality and Oriol complements him so well in CM.
    Things are looking up and the poor form of the second half of last season feels like a distant memory now. COYRs!
