nta786 Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 2-0! What a result Only negative would be JWP finishing... Forster was amazing, Mane's goal quality. We March On. Also, anyone know how Tim got on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird of the land Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Very nice to get revenge for the 1-0 loss at their place. When i saw their midfield i was hopeful but by the sounds of it, it was their defence that handed the game to us. Other results went well for us too. Nice cushion to teams below. Really hoping we can keep this going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redkeith Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Could easily of been 8 0 . Pelle hit the post twice and had one cleared off the line and JWP should have had a hat-trick. We got lucky with Gardos for the yellow card but we should have been 4 nil up by them. Can someone start a thread slagging of JWP cause it worked well for Mane.

Jonnyboy Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Fantastic. 6 attempts each on target shows Forster's quality today, Saints clinical finishing plus defensive slip ups from Arsenal. Every player played well. Poor finishing from Pelle & JWP though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarrettIvo Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Good for Tadic to get that goal. Could see what it did for his confidence immediately. Pelle should have scored from either the free header or with the mostly empty net. How he picked out Debuchy I don't get. Forster was excellent. Gardos very good and maybe lucky to just get a yellow. Gooners World will be going mental at that for sure. If JWP can get his finishing boots on he will be a decent threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheaf Saint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Wowzer. What a superb team performance today. Couldn't be happier with that result, especially with WHam dropping points and Liverpool foooking it up against Leicester. Really should have had more goals though. JWP could easily have had a hat-trick. And I have to say I'm starting to get a little concerned about Pelle's goalscoring form. He really needs one to go in soon to get his confidence back up, because he has missed some real sitters recently. Can we start to dream about the CL now?

Rich102 Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Fantastic performance, defensively organized and great intensity across the pitch. Only let down by poor finishing. I was sure Arsenal would catch us over the season but based on this 4th is very much in our hands. They look nothing like champions league challengers, and we just really do.

tajjuk Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Great win, well deserved by the sounds of it as well. Blip over and we can go to Utd full of confidence and hopefully with Clyne and Morgan back as well. Everton lost, Swansea drew, Man Utd drew, Liverpool drew, West Ham drew. If Chelsea can beat Spurs it will be a decent day. We are really in this top 4 race now, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Excellent result, expected us to win though because Arsenal's defence and DM are pisces poor.

OttawaSaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 I think Chelsea must have rubbed off on us, our passing at times was unplayable. Only down side was the wastefulness in front of goal. Big Vic was absolutely amazing, strength, power, composure, skill, vision and swagger... Tadic looked better, Davis lively game Toby and Fonts were excellent. Bertrand very very good, liked Gardos up until the rash challenge. Finally we beat Arsenal... What a great start to 2015!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washsaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 so proud of Saints. Cannot believe the job that our Ron has done: he has turned us into real European candidates. The way the whole team has responded to the blip has been amazing: as bad as Mane was on the wing, he has been sensational playing off Pelle. Some very tough games coming up but we know Saints will battle as a unit and will be competitive. This is unbelievable.......noone in their right mind would have predicted this in the summer!

austsaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Big Vic outstanding in holding that midfield together; Gardos was good if lucky to only be subbed and not sent off; Davis had a good second half; Forster kept us in it at times when the game was tight. Special mention for Harry Reed, terrier like and a bit more technical skill about him than RK gives him credit for. How much grumpier can Mr Wenger get?

UpweySaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 That's exactly my point. None of them went in did they. Small margins though ... he was inches away from getting two or even three goals. If he has he would have been a hero. I agree with the sentiment that a goal may give him a touch more of his early confidence back but he's still playing well and his hold up/linking play is crucial to us just like Lambert last season.

NewYorkSaint Posted 1 January, 2015 Share Posted 1 January, 2015 Incredible game. Probably should have been 5-2, with the last two goals coming against 10-man Saints. But anyone who saw both this and the game at the Emirates would conclude we're the better team. We didn't deserve to lose there. And here we deserved to win by more than 2 goals. Top 4 absolutely achievable. Maybe even top 3. We're as good or better than Man U based on our game with them. Sure I'd be more than happy with top 6, but it's good to dream. Victor Wanyama, Sadio Mane are world top 20 on their day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
