Match Saints vs Mighty Spurs | FA 4th round Sat 3pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Try to calm down and be objective.

I'm not sure what your point is either. Because no Southamptom player massively fucked up for our goal, it doesn't count that Aurier does it...? 🤨

He fucked up. Accept it.

The point is a player loses the ball 9 times out of 10 a goal is scored.

That doesn't mean they lose it in a dangerous position. Nor did Aurier.

Southampton still had to knock it outwide, cross in the box filled with FOUR spurs players, who failed to deal with it before an UNMARKED player arrives to score.

Aurier losing possession is no more costing us the game than Son or Lucas failing to score at the other end.

It was unlucky and I have no doubt if Tanganga was the one who lost the ball in the build up to the goal it wouldn't have got quite the same reaction.

Fair result against a vey decent side in a proper FA Cup tie

Minute after minute, my disappointment is turning into excitement for the next leg. I think I will go to that one

COYS!!!
 
Good result taking into account Spurs play against 12 men especially away. We'll see how spirited Soton are when they come to a proper ground. they can bring their ref with them too.
Nice to read the fair-weather fans on here moaning at their team again.

In some situations you can not lose possession.

If Lloris is trying to dribble and loses possession and they score, that goal is 100% his fault.
