No CL, Eriksen, Toby off. Great summer we’re going to have.

It’s not like those 2 players are getting us Champions League so what difference does it make if they stay. This team has run its course. Time to rebuild.

Wow. Wtf happened?

Rose played a SICKKKKKKK dummy into Vallery's path to setup the first goal. KWP kicked a guy while he was running clear on goal and then JWP (no relation to KWP) scored a fartasmic free kick that we all knew was coming!

A bloody pathetic 2nd half performance. Poch has got his work cut out now and don't think we'll make top 4 now. 1 point from 12 makes us bottom of the form guide for last 4 matches.

3 bloody away defeats in a row, when we did have the best away record in the top 5 leagues a few weeks back. Now we wait 3 weeks for our next match which is away to Scousers, so make that 4 away defeats in a row.

This is what happens when you don't invest on the pitch. Who f'ing cares about off the pitch investment when we dish up crap on it?

And Kane was so jovial about his misses. Come on Bro, now those misses are biting us dead

Yeah it was unprofessional from all of us. I think Kanes all round play was good, his finishing though was poor and at times hurried

Absolutely deserved.

You had easily impressed people on here crowing at half time about how amazing we were playing. The reality was we weren't sharp at all, Southampton were beyond woeful, and even in second gear this was enough to threaten and look alright. We should have had the game won, but it really wasn't great.

The second half was just disgraceful. We saw how good we were playing when the opposition actually put some effort in......

We barely had the ball and any control from the first whistle of it. It was abundantly clear early on that some of them had completely switched off (Rose, Vertonghen), others just disappeared out of the game entirely as the going got tough (Dier, Sissoko, Eriksen, Kane), and Moura was just tragic.

Special mention though for the brains trust on the touchline, and in the stands. Second half we go back to the diamond for some reason. Have three stood up front, and yet again for some reason channel the spirit of Redknapp - let the game get open, put up with all the bollocks in between, eventually we'll outgun the opposition. Well it didn't work. I don't want to see it, please stop fucking doing it.

League campaign has now pretty much fallen apart, that is a very damaging loss and we need a big response. We have done for weeks tbh, but it hasn't come.......

There's a difference between disappointment and abusing the players you're meant to be supporting. That atmosphere really does not help us one bit. Not only would we be better off but things would also be much more enjoyable if we got behind the team rather than going apeshit at them for daring not to do well in every game.
how are we suppose to react after throwing away a win? should we just settle of mediocrity?

How many times does Poch not react to other team’s managers subs or change in tactics?

It seems to happen quite regularly.

I finally realise why other supporters see us a joke of a club.

We will never win anything like this. The team is just not good enough and I think we and the players themselves have bought into their own hype.

Poch, Levy and the players should be ashamed. We will not be getting top 4 this season.

Getting really fed up with our experienced players making dumbass mistakes that always cost us. Too many of them have an overinflated sense of how good they are.

People keep on saying that this season’s poor performances aren’t down to a lack of investment.

New signings are needed to freshen the team up and give players a kick up the arse.

We look the most complacent team in the league at the moment. None of the players look like they can be fucked.

Actually looking at the table I didn't even realise quite how close it was - no European football at the new stadium next season at all then, not even Europa.

6th gives Europa League after City took the League Cup. Good chance 7th will be enough as well as our rivals pick up cup trophies again.

I hope Poch commits himself to the us and gets backed by the club with whatever he feels he needs (within reason)

Also, there's two teams in a football match. Southampton made some brave changes at half-time, were fighting for their lives, and did very well. It's not always just about us "bottling" it. They deserve credit too.

Yes, but we needed the win big time. Front to back we're the better side and we needed to ram that home when on top.

Yet again we have failed to be ruthless.

Had we been, the second half would of been a professional seeing the game out job.

That's a significant moment today, very significant.

What a hypocrite, you spam me for calling them 'Spursy' then you post the team as being legends.
