Merson described it as a right good game...end to end. Said how good Lallana was. Also added that Saints will be up there at the end of the season....we can all relax guys, Merson was the last person to get on board
Today's result is a good one on reflection. Against an in form team at a place where we historical struggle to get points. However, 2 points from a possible 15 in our last 5 doesn't make for good reading. I'm just pleased that we had such a great start to the season and were able to build a solid foundation for this challenging run of games we've been through.
We got the points on the board at the beginning...this is something we often failed to do in the past. It means that there is no need to panic (which happens when you are near the bottom).
We have had Arsenal, Chelsea, Man U, Stoke and Newcastle in our last five away games. The one before was away at Anfield.
A really good game and another hard fought point from a team in form. Thought Newcastle were rather too West Hoof Utd for my liking but guess it works Thought Corky had another very good game especially when Snidders came on. JRod…great finish! Richie and Ozzy - doesn't work, just stop trying please. One or the other please
A good point away from home at a ground where we normally get nothing. Spurs next up, pretty confident we can win that. In fact I think we can beat anyone at St Mary's (except Villa), so I'm expecting another 3 points on New Years Day. Maybe we can get a point at Cardiff on boxing day as well, though I doubt we'll get anything at Goodison.
FLT - agree about Pards but it does look so obvious when you see the whole of a Newcastle game rather than the highlights. When you coming over for a pint? Anyone know what occurred on the bench?
