Worst team, my arse, look at the table!!!!
I don’t think their rubbish tactics help. Saints like Bournemouth were more interested in keeping the ball than hurting us.. pass, pass, pass and getting nowhere.

Our shape in both games has been excellent.

These sides desperately want to copy Arsenal and Man City, but don’t have the pace or the speed of thought to do it properly.

Ironically their goal came from a flick on from a battering ram from a scuffed set piece.


Better players are all very well, but if they play the game at a snail’s pace and are shot shy like Southampton were then it’s all a waste of money
