Quality all round


OLDER BUT WISER

Saw that Tadic was deservedly MOTM yesterday but I have to say I watched the whole game again last night on Sky and Morgan's ball winning was better than I have ever seen from a Saints player and that's nearly 60 years of support, if we can keep him and get the ball to the playmakers we might just be the real deal.

We've become good at seeing off mediocre and completely **** sides, can't get too excited yet though. Defeats to spurs and Liverpool tell us that, and they've both been well off the pace.

 

Last season. we didn't always beat the weaker sides when we should have (as we are now)..

This season we still have to beat the big teams.

I seem to recall that whenever earlier on it was suggested that Tadic might well be an improvement on Lallana, admonishment followed by some irate posters who would not allow the possibility. Lallana had after all been selected for the Premiership team of the Year, don't you know, so it was inconceivable that we could possibly pick up a player from the p*ss-poor Eredivisie who would be fit to lace his boots, especially not one who cost less than half the money that we got for Lallana.

 

If there anybody out there who still maintains that Lallana is a better player than Tadic?

 

Whilst we're about it, anybody favour any of the players we let go over their replacements?

They're both very good players, I wouldn't turn my nose up to have Lallana available - but he's been a bit of a **** which has soured it all.

 

I'd say that Tadic has more punch about his game though, much more end product so far and less flattering to deceive.

I know this sounds patronising, which it isn't meant to at all, but I'm always impressed with how good both of these guys English is considering they've (I assume) not spent a great deal of time over here prior to signing for Saints.

 

Not that it's all that relevant, as long as they are playing well I couldn't care less how good their English is. I'm just waffling tbh.
