Look fractionally offside but Yoshida not strong enough and both Vest and Bednarek not alert enough to close the runners.
-
An average side that likes to pass out of defence and through midfield really is food and drink for us.

Poor by Bednarek.
-
Great goal. That’s how you press. Been threatening it a few times.
-
Just to point out that it did dip a bit as the season went on. Either way we should be fine - barring injuries and a poor run/loss of confidence.

In talks with one of the Milan teams. Hard to believe he’s still only 27. At least Bale can play the age card.

Spent my early years in Bitterne. Such snobbery on this place

Big fan of Boufal pal?

Maybe. I could see him trying to sell out the DUP if he got a large enough majority, especially as many English nationalists don't give a f**k about NI. But I suspect it would be the beginning of the end for him if he pushed through a WA-like agreement. -

If he wins an election on the back of no deal, he'll be forced to carry it out which will almost certainly destroy the Conservative Party and the union. Politically he can suspend reality as much as he wants but the grim economic consequences of no deal will be inescapable. No chance he gets a sexed up WA through Parliament, at least if he needs to rely on the ERG. 'Boris' wasn't elected by virtue of being Boris. He is simply a host for the Brexit virus and is only useful insofar as he carries out Brexit on the extreme and unrealistic terms he's helped frame (sans backstop and other elements of the WA). Beyond that he's completely expendable and won't be given any special favours. -
One in two, one in two.

Or Les defending the purchase at his last saints forum.

You’d think that could be coached - it’s often no more than playing the simpler, earlier and more direct ball.

Always the victim...

Clyne, when fit, is a much better defender than TAA but while he gets into very good positions, has only had so-so delivery (unlike TAA, though arguably better than Cedric). It depends what you prioritise - call me old-fashioned but a fullback should first and foremost defend. Attacking and crossing are the cherries on top.

Les, do you plan on sticking around this time in October/November? Not run away like you did in March? It wasn’t a particularly good look pal - one might even say, to borrow your cute little phrase, it bore all the hallmarks of a snowflake -
What do you mean they don’t need to balance for FFP? Are they exempt from the rules?

Whenever Les hides behind his stock soundbites and vacuities, you know he’s struggling. He seems awfully flustered for someone’s who supposed to be over the moon. Maybe it’s the weather? -

Raab, Priti Vacant, JRM, McVey, Leadsom etc - most of the leading swivels in the Cabinet. Brilliant on one level. But if we’ve learnt anything over the past three years, it’s the Brexiters unfailing ability to weasel out of any responsibility and blame others when it goes tits up. It’s in their DNA.
