I think we’re seeing what most of us feared. Where are the goals going to come from?
We’ve just got to hope our defence is solid enough to hold firm if/when we actually score.
Definitely looks like teams have worked out how to effectively counter them. They look like they’ll struggle and I think that high energy game that they play must leave them feeling so much more tired when they put in all that effort but lose. Psychologically that’s got to be tough.
Yes, you are correct. Pen shoot out wins vs Torquay and Norwich in the JPT. Did a bit more searching and there's a win in A PSO vs Millwall in the 80s too.
So it looks like P10 W6 L4.
That’s Chelsea results.
As far as I can tell we’ve won 3 of 7: Man U in 91/92, Everton in 18/19, and Sheff Utd 21/22.
We’ve lost to: Bolton in 01/02, Derby in 06/07 and 18/19, and Leicester in 18/19.
Do the stattos know if there were more?
The more and more I watch the less certain I am about fouls and handballs in the box. We see what seem to me like stone wall penalties waved away and really soft ones given.
For Saints if it’s us I’m just “please please please”.
