Can someone sum it up for me? We have definitely qualified for UEFA Cup, but still have a shot at CL? Obviously Bournemouth need to win, and then what?
Whether we like it or not, he has been proved right. From Pardew to Adkins to MoPo to Koeman - we've got better and better and gone from strength to strength.
OK, we're only eight games in but it seems to me there have been many occasions already when Tadic could have - perfectly reasonably - taken a shot but has instead chosen to square it to a better placed player who has scored. I am struggling to remember such selflessness - Pahars made a lot of chances I remember but also wasn't shy about going for goal. Le Tiss rarely spurred a shooting chance, just as well as he was head and shoulders above most strikers he played with. Strugging to think of anyone else in red and white who made quite so many chances for others without having many pokes at goal himself?
Well, I wasn't one of the bedwetters on here but I was shocked and worried about the goings on in the summer. I fully expected us to be struggling at the other end of the table. Humble pie has never tasted so good.
Long live Koeman, long live the new arrivals and long live Southampton Football Club.
Played 8, Points 16, GD + 14. Like a wet dream.
Pelle looks like a class act. Good hold up play, excellent in the air, seems to be fine with both feet and normally gets chances on target at least.
And todays goal was sheer class. If that was a Man Utd or Chelsea player the pundits would be cuming over the TV cameras.
