Larry - who is the neanderthal oaf? MP? Today highlighted our weak attack - Redmond has to be dropped; Shane Long will never be good enough as a starting up front striker. Boufal showed glimpses of the attacking creativity the side needs. The failure to strengthen our attacking force in the Summer looks a huge mistake. |

Much better second half paved the way for an impressive win. Tadic, Redmond and Romeu outstanding - I've really warmed to Redmond; he has come on as the season has worn on. Shane Long did some good things and could have had at least a couple; his finishing let's him down. Cedric played well and so did Yoshida; let's have no more bagging of Maya - he's a genuine Prem CB. |

Such a good win and the quality of Saints movement, passing and energy was great to watch, even on a dodgy stream. Very satisfying to see Reed, JWP, Hesketh and Targett starting with each playing well - Hesketh, in particular was exceptional. It's funny, most have been calling for a proper No. 10 for ages and it seems we've had him in the back yard for a while. No thanks to Koeman for cutting off the opportunities of Hesketh and Reed for the best part of two seasons, when both had previously shown they were up to Prem standard. Very good games from Martina, Targett and Yoshida. Enjoyed Long's game too apart from his finishing. |

Great result - Saints rode their luck in the first 30 minutes, but the last hour brought determined and organised defence and decisive counter attack. Impressive from Davo, Long, VVD, Bertrand and Mane. Thought Romeu was the telling sub on the hour; really tightened up the midfield. Such a satisfying win; maybe not as electrifying as the win at Stamford Bridge back in October, the 4-0 v Arsenal in January or last weeks frolic v Man City but stuffing Spurs on their own patch was just memorable. |

Good reports Brock and Bett. It was an eerie game to watch with home crowd giving vent to their frustrations - can't be easy for the visiting side in those circumstances. Could easily have been 6 for Saints with the chances created. Interesting that Ron said he took Vic off at H/T because he wasn't happy with the midfield - doesn't bode well for Vic remaining a Saint after the Summer.
Like you Bett I was interested to see Mane celebrate with Pelle after his goal and then kiss the badge; I so hope he plays another season or two for Saints - he makes things happen. |

It looked as though we were playing the Saints of last season - Spurs harried and pressed us for most of the game and we struggled with the intensity of the game. Second half better with Wanyama and Bertrand the pick. Not a disaster but something of a reality check. |

A game we were fortunate to win - Swansea really bossed the first half and obviously the sending off (justified) changed the course of the match. Second half changes in midfield were key to better showing, Davis and especially Big Vic made a big difference. Special mention to both CB's who played a half each. Yoshida for taking the brunt of Bony's aggression and stood firm and Gardos who despite being under little pressure looked composed and athletic. Bertrand man-of-the-match. |
