That attitude could radicalise the game. Good batting Thinkman
I honestly can't see us getting anything from the game. I believe there is little discipline and commitment amongst the players, and as a result most of them are now going to be hung over and a stone over weight. Saints 2-0 Spurs
D'ya know... part of me is glad we don't have a Boxing Day match (apart from the enforced 'recovery' time) ...remember, a LOT more hinges on Boxing Day games than just the tradition of playing them on a particular day.Why is this game so bloody far away
Man Utd are really picking up steam, unbeaten now since October
Yeah it is, but it's not good enough if we want to be in touch with the ones above us. A win puts us a point off 4th, if City and Liverpool win.1-1. davis for them. & a kane equaliser!
a draw is a decent result away to a good saints team.
If we have to regularly win away games to teams like southampton to get top 4 then I am afraid I can't see us doing it. I do get what you are saying though.Yeah it is, but it's not good enough if we want to be in touch with the ones above us. A win puts us a point off 4th, if City and Liverpool win.
If city by some miracle lose 1-0 we could actually move into it.
In fact our away form last season was the best bar LCFC who won 11 drew 6 and lost 2If we have to regularly win away games to teams like southampton to get top 4 then I am afraid I can't see us doing it. I do get what you are saying though.
On the 1 hand a draw away to southampton is decent. But on the other hand we really need a win to keep in touch with the top 4.
I don't think we will treat it like a must win game. If we are drawing towards the end of the match then I reckon poch will settle for a point. Especially considering he is a very defensive manager.
The highest ranked team we have beaten away is stoke in 12th.
& the only other away win was against boro.
So we very rarely win away from home. You have to go back to september for an away win. So the safe bet is a draw!
I reckon we will finish between 4th-6th. Most likely 5th or 6th.
