Agreed. They were sharp in the break and defended well. We lacked the killer pass and finish today. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

As I said in the build-up. We lost and we, especially Tadic, don't play well in the wind and the cold. Very lethargic. Their goal was good, but the cross should have been closed down. After that, too many attempts at lazy clever touches, not enough running and commitment. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Thought we had one stonewall and one possible. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

At the game. Doesn't feel good. No atmosphere, Saints lacking energy. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

I would guess a strong chance. May see JWP start too. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Thanks. Romeu must be winning in cards per minutes played Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Yes, and isn't VVD close too? Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

I will be delighted to be proved wrong. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

We'll see. I hope you're right but Tadic, for one, has said he struggles with English winter conditions. Wouldn't be surprised to see JWP replacing him. And don't think Pelle is at his best in the cold and wet. I was at that Stoke game and we had a bigger core of home-grown players then Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

The weather will be a factor. It's permanently wet, cold, windy and miserable in Stoke (I live close enough to know) and they will be in their element. We seem to go into decline once the weather is less than balmy - remember the wet night in Middjitland. (sp) Saints 0 2 Stoke ducks. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Pretty well identical reports with totally opposite spin. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Accepted it's economics but sad that so many football "news" stories should be filed under fiction (b0ll0cks section) and there are so many gullible readers ready to lap it up. And, although these stories don't make things happen, they fuel players' greed and can stir up discontent. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

Did well to get behind the defence, win the ball, hold off the defender and make the chance. Wasn't easy and he was possibly nudged. Shame he didn't finish though, would have been a great goal. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk

I have to agree that the press need stories of plausible possible signings for the likes of Man U, Liverpool etc and they have a mindset that a sale from Saints will be more believable than from other clubs, due largely to them perpetuating the "selling club" image. And of course it also reinforces the idea that all players really only want to play for a small group of "top" clubs. Which boosts the plastic supporters' attitude of supremacy. And keeps things simpler for them (the press) as they can continue to focus on and glorify just a few clubs. Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
