CB Saint Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Fonte has a nice shiner - when did that happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feyenoord1908 Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Koeman should be in the vote. He clearly masterminded this victory. He worked with Newcastle rightback Daryl Janmaat last year and knew his weakeness would be defensively and following his man. It was very clever to instruct Elia to come deep inside as often as possible to get more space. Elia is not a type of player that does this often so these were clear instructions that got him 2 goals. Very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_clark Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Voted for Reed as MOTM. Elia was very good but Reed was outstanding given the circumstances and the pressure to step up. Also very happy after betting on Elia to score 2 or more goals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Weststand Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Wow what a week 3 tough away games 6 - points & next round of the cup. You can't ask more than that. This is turning into a season to remember. Been at the hospital so only just in to see Elia score the second, but I thought Reed looked like right little terrier from what I was able to see. Ella looks a real handful & will improve with games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 that handball was a fair shout for newcastle you seen them given and I would have wanted one for saints had that been the other end but then, who cares Elia was very good, who was it who said in the paper that he wont have an impact in the prem? I think we missed wanyama quite a lot, hopefully a couple of player will be back for the next prem game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SO16_Saint Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 It's one thing winning 8-0 at home but a completely different matter grinding out a 2-1 away win at Newcastle. It's the stuff of real team spirit and one that is the real deal and challenging for the CL....for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint1977 Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Wow - we just won three back to back away games at Man U, Ipswich and Newcastle, all tough places to win. Calling MLG and Fitzhugh to the thread - when is the last time we won three away games in a row, let alone back to back? Elia, Reed, Pelle superb, Fonte striding out from the back like Alan Hansen. Gardos great again, bit unlucky for goal. Koeman got subs just right although would use Seager and rest Long next week in the Cup if there's any risk to his groin. Great week to be a Saints fan.

badgerx16 Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Am I correct in thinking that Gardos has played 8, won 7, drawn 1 ? Just checked, and in the Prem this is correct.

miserableoldgit Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 The Fonte nonpenalty makes up for the s**t decision against Fox a few years ago at St. James. It always used to be "hand to ball - penalty", " ball to hand- no penalty". When did it change? Fonts did not put his hand out to stop the ball.

Bit of both, Gardos must have been able to see Forster coming as he's looking right at him and he has plenty of time to pull out of the tackle.

beatlesaint Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Incredible week, incredible team spirit, incredible manager I can see why Les Reed rates Harrison Reed so much, he looks the business, like he's been playing there for years. Elia and Mane in the same team and both on form will be amazing, he looks like he is ready to take the chance Ronald has given him with both hands. very very proud of this club :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 42 points by mid-January, what on earth is going on. I'm used to being mighty pleased with that at the end of the season. Fantastic performance in the circumstances the belief and team spirit throughout the whole of the squad is something to behold. Ellia was MOTM for his goals but I thought Pelle was immense and how many times has he hit the woodwork, this season?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabrone Posted 17 January, 2015 Share Posted 17 January, 2015 Amazing, we seem to have forgotten how to lose, this is unreal. We are currently on 42 points. Top 4 should be achieved by getting 33 points from our next 16 games. Home games: Swansea, West Ham, Liverpool, Palace, Burnley, Hull, Spurs, Villa Away games: QPR, West Brom, Chelsea, Everton, Stoke, Sunderland, Leicester, Citeh I can see 33 points from that lot. Bloody hell, champs league is really on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
