Southampton 04/05/13

Emoran

No point saying its a massive game, they all are at this stage.

Anything but 3 points and it's Europa League again next year for spurs

Hope to see the below team

Lloris

Walker Dawson Vert BAE

Lennon Parker Dembele Siggy

Bale
Ade/defoe

Holtby thudd and either defoe or Ade to change the game hopefully


Live on setanta, 3pm... Long weekend... Sunny weather....

Time to go spend it in a dark dreary pub sobbing into a pint watching spurs lose 2-1!

Tightness across the chest, check.
Sweaty palms, check.
Irregular heart rhythms , check.
Irrational fear that my neighbors cat is trying to kill me, check.

must be less than 24 hours to kick off then so.

mickman

Think we will win this 3-0

Saints are safe so they wi actually try and play against us rather than shut up show and play for a draw

Dempsey to score a brace!! But he will also shoot ten times from outside the box and all efforts to go mikes wide or float into the goalies hands

slegs

Spurs to win 13-0 and close the goal difference gap on Chelsea

2nd Row Donkey

It would be nice to dish out a good thumping wouldnt it? 4-0 or 5-0.
Then I remember how terrible we were against Wigan last time out and I'd take a 1-0 win and run like the wind.

spursman11

any news on Dembele been fit for Saturday?

tippspur

A 3-0 win for Spurs hopefully,If we concede another goal from a corner kick in this game I swear to God I'll tear my hair out.

irishmover

Spurs to win 3-1. Southampton to score from a corner and tippspur to post a pic of him tearing his hair out.

Glebee

Why have I got a bad feeling about todays match. Southampton at home we should be winning comfortably at this stage of season but this is spurs we are talking about............

irishmover

Lloris; Walker, Dawson, Vertonghen, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Dembele, Huddlestone, Dempsey; Bale, Defoe

irishmover

Subs: Friedel, Caulker, Naughton, Carroll, Holtby, Sigurdsson, Adebayor

Excellent lineup and no Parker thankfully

mickman

This is going terribly

The saints are all over us, lloris just made a top save from a free kick and dembele gone off

Worrying times

Leinstersqspur

On the positive side it can't get much worse:rolleyes:

Have we even created a chance? Bloody hell....I fear for us against Chelsea on Wednesday.

2nd Row Donkey

Woe and despair. Just awful.

Wednesday is irrelevant if we don't win today

galwayjohn89

We've improved slightly in last few minutes. Hopefully well get a goal don't care how scrappy and keep a clean sheet

tom1ie

21 mins to save our season. ****!:mad:

tom1ie

**** sake arms all over ade

tom1ie

is it my imagination or everytime phil Thompson is commentating on our matches on ssn we get a poxy result? could be just my imagination or my hatred for phil Thompson....................

"No urgencey from Spurs, fans going beserk"

davycc

Id take a scrappy 1nil now

We will play out of our skins on wed but struggle against "lesser" teams way too often

davycc

deffo a peno for bale there on 2nd viewing!

galwayjohn89

Bale.

davycc

what a goal baled out again!

tom1ie

get the **** in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

slegs

Bale you legend!!

mickman

Bale is such a winner

Turns games on their head in a split second and is dragging us into the champs league

Thompson Defo doesn't like us though, looked like he was unhappy we scored

its true! just cause we replaced his liverfool as a top 4 club! what a tosser!

davycc

Come on QPR!

ziedth

I know it's an awful thing to say but I honestly believe when Bale leaves he's going to win it all. Much like mickman said he's a match winner plain and simple

slegs

Harry will have QPR ready for this. Hes been talking em down all week in public...there is likely to be some kick from the QPR players

Emoran

We have our 20 goal a season player finally


COYS ****ing lethal

I just hope that if he goes we get the right cash and he is not sold to an English club. Couldn't bear to seem him playing for either Man U or Man C

tom1ie

do ya think he'll stay if we get cl footy? I know its a big if that we'll get it but theres always hope!

Imagine if he went to Chelsea. Even if we do get champion league lets face it he's too good to stick around with a team that week in week out just scrape over inferior opponents.

ziedth

I reckon he's gone already.

It's either A) we finish 5the and who'd blame him or and we finish 3rd/4th and he can say he left after single Handedly dragging us into the CL and who could give him stick after that.

If he stays he really is a more loyal man than the majority

tippspur

We got lucky today with that result,massive improvement needed against Chelsea or it's over and out for our CL prospects.

2nd Row Donkey

Chelsea and stoke, both away. The 2 stickiest games of the entire business end of the season.

You could almost see the players lifting themselves for Chelsea because its a derby, and its a CL 6 pointer, and the history with AVB but stoke on the other hand has banana skin written all over it.

larry1

Just home from the lane today. Possibly the worst/ugliest game I've seen them play in years but thanks to the welsh wizard my little guy and me danced up the High Road to the train this evening :D:D COYS!

davycc

I cant believe there is still speckulation Bale has said himself very recently he isnt going anywhere & so did AVB & Bales word is good enough for me.

Even Hansen & shearer on MOTD tonight were saying "surely spurs cant keep him if no champs lge " but they are full of sh1te anyways.

Even in a worse case scenario Id give him 2more seasons before Levys lack of ambition to sign other proven quality players badly needed to battle for top 3 & CL

irishmover

Poor performance but the result is what matters. What a goal though..

I doubt Dembele will be fit for Wednesday now.. When I seen the teamsheet I thought to myself it would have been good to see Dembele left on the bench and Carroll starting. Probably would have been the right move in hindsight. We're going to be shy on creativity on Wednesday and I'm not quite sure Carroll starting against Chelsea in what is a massive massive match would be wise, it could go either way for him. He could be the hero or have a terrible game and set him back a long way.

A draw is about as good as I expect, really cant see us winning. The only good thing is that we're much better away from home this season than most previous.

Here's hoping Man Utd do us a proper favour and beat Chelsea. They already let us down against Arsenal..

I dunno. After seeing him on the post match interview on MOTD last night I think is hat (head) has been turned.
