    There are times to pass out from the back and times to hoof. I never feel that Boruc has the balance right. If we do lose possession I'd rather it was in the oppositions half than just outside our own penalty area.

    I hate the principal of 'hoofing'. Apart from it not being pretty to watch, ultimately, as you say, it will often end in losing possession. But it has its place. Against Norwich it was more luck than judgement that we got away with it. Its not as if we regularly keep possession all the way to scoring a goal after a short pass out from Boruc.

    Good spot...don't think he would travel if he had no chance of playing. perhaps they are going to check after another nights rest.

    Love the healthy snacks on the coach! Seems I'm not that different to them!! (though there may be a bottle of wine in there if it was me)

    I think England take Jaffa cakes when they go abroad...low fat energy boost and also delicious.

    Ferdinand said Ferguson was a fan of them at United and always had them in the dressing room.

    Jaffa Cakes are definitely encouraged for sports people. Probably not a whole tube in one go to be fair.

    Saints just tweeted a picture about Pochettino welcoming Reed into the first-team set-up on Friday.

    Tbf, Reed has been in there for some time, but I suppose this was an official recognition.

    I went for Arsenal to beat Chelsea, and Sunderland to beat Norwich. Nothing like making a tit of yourself on national radio<doh>
