Spurs have their one and only shot of the 1st half in the 45+2 minute and score!

Spurs have technically only had one shot in the game.

What?

Newcastle made no major signing this summer before the takeover collapsed at the end of July. Hendrick, Fraser, Wilson and Lewis all joined long after the collapse of the takeover.

It only took 35 seconds in the Palace game last week.

The potential new owner doesn't own the club. Spending often stops during the process of a change of ownership.

Mourinho was not the manager for the first league game.

What is that based on? Having some injuries doesn't automatically make someone 'fragile', we'd need to know a lot more about the nature of the injuries to determine that.

That wasn't a problem when we played them last season.

That is not true. Rohl leaving and his replacement joining both happened in August 2019. 6th August Rohl announced as leaving... 23rd August, Richard Kitzbilcher announced as his replacement...

I think you'd struggle to justify any of those are 'facts'.

Ronaldo has gone from scoring 48 and 46 league goals in a season 5-8 years ago... to 31 league goals last season. Messi has gone from scoring 50, 46 and 43 league goals in a season 5-8 years ago... to 25 league goals last season. Sure that is still superb by both of them, but it is a significant slowing down in their goal-scoring.

He is a long way above League One standard. I think you've forgotten how shit that level is.

We didn't.

Well that was disappointing! Saints lacked the spark they had from the end of last season. It wasn't a terrible performance, just a meh performance and unable to break down a packed home defence who sat behind the ball (see the 70% vs 30% split in possession).

Do you mean Deeney? 🤔

I'm puzzled why you think that. Have you seen what relegated Bournemouth have sold this summer? Saints have a lot of players you could get a big fee for.
