    Saints look exactly like what they are, a demoralised team that know they're doomed. It looks like we have not really got out of 2nd gear at times..

    We're set up exactly as we were under Conte.

    "Ange ball", whatever that was, is well and truly in the bin.

    Porro gets booked and Soton player avoids card for almost identical fouls ..

    He’s never scored enough during his whole career. One half decent season shouldn’t have meant Spurs signed him for that money, he’s not even young either so no resale value and he already flopped at Chelsea and Liverpool.

    I do wonder if those funny little old, overweight, bald refs of the 60's and 70's were any worse...

    Our system does rely on forced turnovers, and Solanke does that

    ...or did that, as our press has gone to **** this season

    This is a terrible half very in keeping with our recent performances.

    It’s because it’s unsustainable. There’s plenty of teams that press but this system requires you to be sprinting more or less from minute 1 to 90 for it to be successful. Last few months the players have just been too ****ed to go through with the demands and we’re seeing the performances to show it.

    We didn't see that so much last season

    ...which is definitely not related to the increase in fixtures and travel for the Europa League, coupled with burning our squad out by gunning for all four competitions

    Frankfurt must be rubbing their hands in anticipation watching this we are just so easy to play against.

    Bergvall really is very special.

    Could be seeing the rise of a potential genuine superstar.

    Looks like a hand might be offside. Does that count theses days. Who knows. Trouble is they're driving people into the camp of who cares if thy take five minutes to decide.
