No idea what to expect from Southampton tonight. Seem really inconsistent.
That's true, but in years gone by, half of those draws would have been loses. We are one of the hardest teams to beat. Last year we had as many draws (i think at a similar stage of the season- could be wrong) and should have finished 2nd. Not too shabby. Of course I would prefer us to convert those draws into wins. I think in time we will. But... matches are drawn. It happens.We have drawn over a third of all our PL games, as many as anyone in the league and too many if extrapolated out to finish top 4
I'm going but also want to know where drinkingAnyone going to the game and know where our fans are drinking?
The difference this year, is that all the teams that are expected to win are winning.. We're just doing the same as last year.That's true, but in years gone by, half of those draws would have been loses. We are one of the hardest teams to beat.

Arsenal recently lost two on the bounce. Man City are inconsistent. The only team that is winning most of their games is Chelsea. We –despite playing relatively poorly compared to last year– are not that far behind. A win tonight, puts us what 4 points off second, 3 behind Arsenal. Imagine if we kick on second half of the season (which I expect us to). We will be right in the mix for top 3/4 come May.The difference this year, is that all the teams that are expected to win are winning.. We're just doing the same as last year.

There you go. Even better Further strengthening my original point! (Well spotted by the way )A win puts us 1 point behind arsenal mate.
I shouldnt be this nervous but I am. Really need to win. Key players out of form and every result went against us this round. Worrying. Feels like we're being set up.
We didn't have a "slow start" this season. That was last season. This season we got 17 points from our first 7 matches and were in 2nd place. Last season we got 12 points from our first 7 matches and were in 5th place. Neither is exactly a "slow start", but we fairly shot out of the blocks this season, with 5 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses.
Feel like I've been waiting for tonights games for ages
I saw something earlier today(not sure if its true though) that we are one of only 3 teams that hasnt used an unchanged XI this season. The lack of continuity, while some of it has been forced, is an issue IMO.Man up mate. Eriksen is hitting good form and kane is due a goal (well defo a pen).
Lets wait for team news though as poch has been unpredictable of late.
Eriksen is in great form, atm. Kane, Dele, Son, Dembele, Dier and even Wanyama however, are not. Creates a selection headache, IMO.Man up mate. Eriksen is hitting good form and kane is due a goal (well defo a pen).
