Koeman said we wouldn't be looking to bring in many players in January unless we had a spate of injuries...better get your purse out, Katharina.
I thought Chambers was pretty pathetic getting in Alderweireld's face when he'd gone down with that hamstring. Twat.
Apart from the injuries, I was actually encouraged this evening. I could see some of the character that got us into the top four for most of the season.
Injuries are the least of our problem, squad depth speaking. A lot of players who looked fantastic not so long ago now look very tired. Jaded and off form.
Just a thought - was Marriner scared to get the yellow card out for their players in case he got their names wrong again?
And a lot of players now look world class who were questioned not so long ago. Swings and roundabouts.
More like the crowd didn't scream for yellows. He let them make most of the decisions for him tonight.

something quirky when replying to quotes - now two have made me look like a twat , this will be a third I guess
I would happily see us give a kid ago on Monday rather than Mayuka. I know these three or four sub appearances from him have been very fleeting, but still, he might as well have not been on the pitch for them. I can recall a foul on Hutton, and that's about it.
I thought Davis showed how important it is for us when he plays his best. One of his best performances in a Saint's shirt. Probably on my own here but I'm quite excited to see the team change a bit for the next games, we've been far too robust in attack and midfield recently. Maybe a few youngsters could finally be filtered into the first squad, and I really we avoid a 4-3-3 with mane and mayuka, gardos in CM and Yoshida at the back. Another night of "they're crumbling", but all we need is a a share of the points against United and we're back. I've been quite pessimistic even in the height of our form, thinking that a lot of fans are getting embarrassingly deluded and that we'll slide down to lower mid table. But to control a game at The Emirates, with multiple injuries and uneven sides needed to finally kill us off shows that we must be doing something right.
