man city 2-0 Villa 1-1 Swansea 1-0 Qpr 2-0 Us Wrong, he put a draw Spurs 3-0 WHU 3-0 That is pretty good by anyone's standards.
Just watched it all again on Sky... Well done Saints.. Mr Moss, just the worst ever, the man should never ever referee a premiership game again. Incompetent, badly judged, unaware of the rules, a complete useless, pick your own noun. How many thousands a year to do something I could do better does this unaware, incompetent fool get?????????? and nothing more than I saw live..
Special mention for JWP. We've certainly missed someone who can deliver a ball like that from free kicks and corners. Also Clyne...they tried marking him out of the game, but he can cross a ball from tight positions.
I never used to like Long pre-Saints, although in all honesty can't remember why. But now I do, he puts in so much effort and never bitches. Question is, exactly how fouled does he need to be before being awarded a penalty? Seem him booted up in the air and punched in the head this season, and at least a couple of other dead cert penalties not given. Is it because he doesnt complain or maybe he gives off an unlikeable vibe that refs object to? Please Long and Tadic on the pitch going forwards, Mane as backup from the bench.
I'd like to see the same system again for Palace. Gardos in for Fonte. I'm going to be controversial and say that's the only change I'd make. I liked the Reed-Ward-Prowse-Davis combination as they keep it simple and are all good at passing the ball early to feet. Ward-Prowse is a brilliant set piece taker and Reed was my man of the match. Davis is a nailed on starter. Wanyama and Schneiderlin on the bench for me.
Tadic and Mane can't get in the side if we stick with a 3-5-2. Long had more freedom today playing at striker. Pelle also looked better with Long supporting him.
Pelle said in his interview that he liked playing with Long. He said they agreed to bring down the ball for the other and that was what led to his goal.
Someone told me that it was one match only because it was stopping a goal scoring opportunity not dangerous play.
Long has a tendency to go down in such a way that it looks like he's embellishing, even when he isn't; arms and legs go everywhere. This one, though, Moss simply mistook Long for the football, judging by the corner award...understandable confusion that.
