We've set up exactly the same way, but now against sides that are a little wiser to us. We've had less room through Downes and Jander. Fellows and Manning have pushed up. That cut off midfield has made it harder to create in the middle, and more tellingly, our lack of a centre forward has meant there's not many faces to get on the end of wide deliveries. At the same time as our wing backs have pushed up, we're vulnerable to breaks down the flanks. We need a second half where we can keep the tempo up. Also one, where a Robinson or Archer can contribute to keeping the energy and chances going. Hoping to see more of Azaz providing an outlet and support in the middle.

Arch

I like to take some time opening gifts, and seeing other people open their presents. Some time to enjoy the thought that goes into it. But every year is a feeding frenzy of wrapping paper. 🙂

There would have been a thought of maybe keeping bus stops vol 2 for your birthday. But sometimes 1 volume of bus stops just isn't enough, so a good call. (I got the Taschen wood buildings last year) FC New Amsterdam's 2021 fourth shirt...

Merry Christmas everyone! And get well soon @SNSUN

Attack

Not at all. Hoovers can be expensive. If anything, a toaster as well is spoiling someone.

Hopefully relocating to another relative is an option.

Seeing games with fans of other clubs recently has reminded me of something. When the ball is played back to their keeper under even the slightest hint of pressure, there's that intake of worried breathe. Likewise if they're trying to play it out from the back. Not something I worry about in the slightest with Baz. Cool as a cucumber dealing with all sorts of passes and possession.

I have to say I'm a bit nervous about this strange new concept of Southampton 'keeping you're proposing.

I thought that you'd recognise that Sydney is just a place name Mr Sweeney uses.

They get no points from me for sculpting a turkey made of sprouts!

There were some interesting observances in the egg household...

Going to pick up the Christmas order to find half of it missing, and items substituted in for others.

Are these the names of some of that stuff next to the Red Leicester? - Phil I Stine

Poised, anticipating, waiting for an opportunity to strike...just like Downs. 🙂

You should probably have waited until after Christmas to accuse Santa of murdering pop stars. I guess no one is more sick of Christmas music than him. Still, it's the naughty list for you and no pressies.

Noise

But we already have Downs! Who else could the amazing SR recruitment team possibly think we'd need? 🙂

My dad's a big Chris Rea fan. So, I've heard quite a few of his albums over the years. And I've a soft spot for him through that. Sad news and our thoughts are with his family, friends and many fans.

There's the harsh conditions. But having migrants fend off waves of webbed creatures looking for a better life in the detention centre, seems a bit much.

Katie Hopkins did beat Tyson Fury on points in Vegas, yesterday. 🙂
