I agree with the fitness - I don't think the team are as fit, but apparently Pochettino's fitness/training regimes were very hard and the players welcomed the matches as a 'break'. Will be interesting to see if Spurs maintain their momentum right until the end of the season. I think Juanmi was bought to play the extra matches we'd have had in the Europa League group stages?? That went well ...

He really wasn't wrong. Just very poor all round - hard to pick a best player from that. As has been said, we're always sh*t after long breaks, just completely f**ked up our momentum - but it wasn't just that, Bournemouth did play well and hassled well.

Plenty of good streams. Just poor football.

With a performance like that (and the ones recently), the only elsewhere is going to be a move to the 4th division to portsmouth.

100% this. No way does Klopp want him. I expect him to turn up at Swansea or equivalent mid-table.

I did laugh out loud, especially when he almost fell over and when he tried to push Toure who stood his ground and then picked him up ... topped off with missing, brilliant

Infraction, stop stamping on people's dreams.

I've done many different martial arts, boxing and Krav Maga - what you're trained to do is still very different from real life (although Krav Maga is the closest). If you've been on the beers all day and you and your mates come under attack, are you really going to think "okay I need to walk away?" - a sober you might, if you've got the space to do so. But once you've had a few beers you might react differently or actually the real life situation is exactly nothing like what you've been taught in a safe room. You look out for number 1. If looking out for number 1 involves hurling a table and THEN making your exit, that's what you do.

Would love someone to punch the c**t square on the jaw.

Probably someone nowhere near it, who heard via a friend of a friend, or read Peach's tweet and decided that was the truth. There is more evidence from people who were there to suggest it was Arnhem fans and the few Feyenoord were drinking peacefully WITH Saints in the square.

Of course they'd say that, it's their rivals, think about it!

Agreed and as a side note, the Echo piece is embarrassingly bad too.

Define "thrived" though? There are plenty of players that have moved on and had nice little careers; higher earnings? More internal appearances? European football? I find it a bit arrogant (not picking on you here, just replying to the whole thread) to suggest that Saints improve players and most fail when they leave. I wouldn't call more internal appearances, higher earnings and European football as failure? Sure, their club's new fans may not appreciate them like we did (Morgan), but I wouldn't say he's failed. You could also add players such as Bridge, Svensson, Crouch etc to that list surely?

I absolutely love this guy!

I will be staggered if the vote results in a "stay". Absolutely staggered.

No - I want us to win every match, regardless.

Stop stamping on people's dreams with your sensible message.

I did think that was a bit 'extreme'.

Why not just assume they'll win and schedule it for the Sunday, rather than f*cking around with everyone's plans ... AGAIN. Modern football. F*ck off.

Oh FFS! Really??

Amen.

I wondered that too - I also thought I was going mad

I would be genuinely surprised if there was more than one moron in our support who'd boo a silence at their place. And as you say, they'd be shut up PDQ.

Likewise, I'd forgotten just how good he and Holland were in that era.
