He's a typical work horse player, but with added technical class. Some of his touches and passes are quality, he's way better than people give him credit for. I'd never drop him from our 11 to be honest.
-
I've never really understood how people have the time, or motivation, to complain about TV programmes. I've personally got a hell of a lot more to worry about.

You are so bad at this. Give up. Seriously.

He certainly wasn't fit today, looked to be running through treacle at times. I think he's so good that we simply play him if he's 60% fit, the likes of Jos and Maya aren't good enough cover and It's clear that MP isn't convinced by either. First job in the summer would be to offload Jos and replace him with another Lovren-level CB. 2nd job - bring in another striker and loan out Gallagher and JWP. 3rd job...keep the rest of the team together and tie MP down to a contract. Then we may be in business...

And of course, the mess they're in is just down to barker. They're so short sighted, like a lot of clubs - changing the manager will fix everything!!!!!! The fact is that they're rotten to the core, they should have been liquidated and started up again - would have been beneficial for them, but from our point of view, it's quite funny to see the suffering prolonged.
-
Yeah it was hindering him last year, even his team mates admitted that (I believe Lambert said as much). But he's grown so much this year, even seeing him in the England team barking out orders says it all. Full of belief and confidence and blessed with natural ability. Great combo.
-
The summer will provide the answers. If the plan is to achieve European football with academy players, then we can't be selling our best ones. Pretty simple really, I'd have thought. All speculation up until the summer though really.
-
Squad isn't big enough, simple as that really. Players like JWP aren't strong enough to come in and replace Morgan or Wanyama. Wanyama was the bigger reason for our defensive record at the start of the season and the fact he's been missing most of the 2nd half shows. Our first 11 is terrific and a match for all teams in the league, but with injuries, fatigue and suspension we cannot go toe to toe with them. Hopefully we'll evolve further in the summer to help cure this problem.

Why anyone would conciser or question his position is beyond me. For me, him staying is key to our long-term goals. If he goes, we become another Villa. Selling the top England boys, not replacing them and plodding along. Keeping MP would show ambition and intent, I'd love to know who could do a better job. We're very, very lucky to have him. Some people are getting a little carried away with this season, possibly the same lot who thought we were title contenders back in October? The majority of us knew we were a good side, but we didn't have the depth to sustain any challenge with the 'big 6' in this league - and that has proven correct. The fact that we've stayed nip and tuck with them all season is credit to the management and the way we play. Sure, some games have been frustrating, we've dropped a lot of points and have some disastrous results - but that's in isolation. If you look at the season as a whole it's been one of progression, ambition and excitement. MP is one of the key components to that, we will miss him and rue the day when he leaves. He's being linked to Madrid, PSG, Monaco and Spurs, but apparently not good enough for us. Go figure.

Come on mate, you cannot be expecting either of those to be a free kick - especially the 2nd one. Lovren went in too tight, was too weak and got done. Simple as that. If a free kick was given against us in that situation you would be fuming, it wasn't a free kick. It was utter **** defending.
-
Not the first time, no, but one of a handful of poor moments in his saints career. Confused by the posts coming out regarding Lovren ''He's gifted loads of goals this season'' ''not the first time this season he's been poor''. Be thankful for what you've got. We're lucky to have someone like Lovren at this club, we may well end up with Jos and Maya as our partnership next year - who knows. Yes, he had a poor, poor game, but he's the runner up to POS for me. A true international CB.
-
Load of turd. At least we won't be losing any players based on that 2nd half, one of the worst 45 mins of our season by far performance wise. Just out-muscled, out thought/fought and out played. A pretty average spurs team, it has to be said, but it was gifted to them in that 45. 9th is probably our max this year, can't see us finishing any higher. Still a very good season, but will be left with the overwhelming feeling that we should have done so much better.
-
An absolute disaster of a result if we're honest. Season is well and truly done, dusted. gone.
-
Alpine for manager, assistant, chairman and captain. Then all will be fine.
-
Why didn't we just take that chance! too many passes.
-
Erickson is such a class act.
-
The game was killed by Clynes error, not HT.
-
Not one of our players has had a good game this half. Not much you can do when that happens. Zilch to change it.
-
Yeah, cause jumping around, waving your hands and shouting ''GET INTO THEM'' ''HIT IT'' is going to help alot. Agreed.
-
Every single player has lost their composure.
-
Pass of the day from Chambers to open that up.
-
Gaston for Rodriguez, OK then.
-
It's a shame he wasn't around when we were winning, isn't it? Oddball of a person.
-
Soldado is taking Lovren to the cleaners today, he can't be fit. He's never been this bad for us.
-
Cool.
