Dreadful in last half hour but thats what I mean - we had the game won in an hour and then we took the foot off the gas a bit

Yeah we won 3-1 but that was another shit performance from us

A better team would’ve punished us

Llorente is a world cup winner. I fail to believe bringing him on would have caused us to lose a 3 goal lead at home to a side in the relegation zone.
Kane probably had it put in his contract that he can never be subbed unless he's scored a hat trick.

We were totally outplayed for 2/3s of that game and yet won 3-1. So disappointing that the players stopped trying after going 3-0 up after an hour. Should be happy with a nice win but feel slightly robbed by another fairly gutless performance overall. Lucky for us Southampton cannot shoot!

Our defence is poor although I expected it still can't keep a clean sheet against a team like this

He didn’t even play many minutes, if any, the year Spain won the World Cup.

Irrelevant. Point is he was good enough to be one of the best 23 players for the best country in the world. He is a good, experienced player. Why even buy him if he can't come on when we are cruising.

the way we just take our foot off the gas really annoys me. we just don't know how to close games out.

Obviously I'm delighted we won.

But that was another absolutely shocking performance from us.

Southampton had the better chances and were the better side...which seems strange to say when we were 3-0 up at one point.

Were it not for some world class Goalkeeping from Lloris we may well have lost that game on another day and probably deserved to.
