There's a bit of quality we've been lacking.

Need to score in the next few mins or Benitez will make a tactical change to cut off our momentum.

Prowse time.

How can the ref give them a foul for that?

Yeah. Long and Lemina on. JWP and Sims off. Go to a 4 with Stephens at right back. 433

Have we been that good lately? We were crap against Brighton as well but luckily they are pathetically bad. Squad still needs a major surgery.

We deserve that. We've been dreadful all over

Why not leave Sims or Redmond back though? It happens far too often!

It was a clear red, mind.

****ed by our own corner again!!! Terrible.

Paul Allen recently launched the biggest aeroplane. Fact.

Bolasie wasn’t exactly a secret though; he was already playing in the PL. That’s no use to us as we won’t be signing any players with a track history in the PL, apart from the occasional jobber like Long / Austin / Romeu. We need someone who can sort the wheat from the chaff when it comes to overseas leagues and our lower leagues.

They have had a few decisions in the league, although they got stitched up by an offside Liverpool goal in last year’s Champions League. But ******** to them. I’ve no sympathy for any bad luck befalling the “big 6”.

I didn’t see any “fancy tricks”. Do you have a weekly schedule of dinners?

Cracking dive by Salah again tonight.

Rule 1?

I’d be tempted to switch to a 433. Take off Vestergaard and put Romeu in there.

Time for a new suit.

So do we now have anyone in a leadership position, other than Ralph H, with any sort of credible sports leadership / business background, never mind football? I don't count Wee Ross as he hasn't exactly had a great record here and he was small time before he arrived.

It’s the old adage that if the stadium is full, the seats must be too cheap. As you said, though, if you’re a club that could get relegated then a reservoir of goodwill is potentially quite important in the long term. I think we can be pretty confident that no one in the upper echelons of Saints FC gives a stuff about the fans either way, so you take you choice.

Would be nice if he can make it through to a testimonial. That’s going to be an increasing rarity in the modern game.

I’ve sometimes wondered if it’s deliberate. Take ages drawing as many opponents towards the throw as possible, then look for a quick switch. Sometimes it’s better to just take the first option though.

Bournemouth fans sarcastically cheering Begovic. Top fans. Like ours.

The key moment was the chance Long had for two nil. One goal was always unlikely to be enough but we did enough in the first half to get a second.
