James Ward-Prowse is 100-times better at dead ball kicks than Eriksen
Possibly. I think it's his blindspot. There are only so many wars of attrition you can fight with the same set of troops when ultimate victory is not possible. You need reinforcements or morale will take a beating. We no longer have tactical nor technical superiority to other teams so these games are always going to be even harder.
True but it does not feel the same to host the likes of fuckin BATE instead of Barcelona, does it?I know it's bad, but at least we'll be back home.
Agreed, but not investing in new players takes some of the gloss off CL participation for me.True but it does not feel the same to host the likes of fuckin BATE instead of Barcelona, does it?
It has been apparent pretty much all season long that our squad has been short. We have done fcuk all incoming transfer business for over 400 days. It is mental.
CretinSo that's it everyone has thrown the towel in already? We are still 3rd and moving into the new stadium, it's not over yet!
Rose and Walker-Peters just awful today. Attack not clinical enough in the final third. Such a positive first 45 goes to waste.
Need this break to get our heads back into it, but looking at our schedule I think we will end up in the 77-81 point range.
We need United, Woolwich, Chelsea to draw with each other and also drop some points against the 7-11 club.
Fuck me.
He’s not deserved a start for a while. Yet again there is no pressure on his place.I'm fucking better then eriksen at free kicks...and corners. Please drop him rest of the season
Poch done? Jesus take a step away from the edge.He’s not deserved a start for a while. Yet again there is no pressure on his place.
James Ward Prowse has scored how many free kicks ? and It’s been Years since Eriksen did the same !
This run of 4 games and performances are an utter stain on our club and on us as fans. Shades of 2012 all over again and rinse and repeat is coming. poch is likely done I am sad to say.

They were all 21 and full of energy back then. We used to be able to show off that our squad was the youngest in the league. The flip side was they didn't have the know how and experience to hunt down Leicester.For so long poch's double sessions were why we were so fit and could press the shit out of any team. Nowadays so many players can't play more then one game a fortnight. What the fuck has happened.

We had an entire week off after today. If they were both match fit, why weren't they not even on the bench??
Surprised you didn't see that we needed a little more possession in that game, especially in the second half. Someone to calm things down a bit and calmly pass the ball about unlike the hot potato that it seemed.So we have to prepare ourseleves for a possible life without Eriksen and Toby, and with Europa League football. It feels like fucking 2013 all over againochfacepalm:
Your point is a good one but Soton were always going to get better. This game is on Harry and the rest up front that bumbled away chance after chance when they were trying to give the game to us. In our last 4 or 5 games vs them they have come back hard in the second halves even scaring us from 3-0 down twice. We have been abject even in the first half when folks were saying stupid things like Dier is our savior and Dele is the next coming of messi.
