He had no problem starting Bissouma against Fulham and Bournemouth. Yet he checked in at the 80th minute today. Why?

He started Gray at DM against Fulham for the first time I think. Could've easily done the same today, assuming that he doesn't plan on starting Gray Thursday.

He took Romero off against Fulham at the 70th minute, despite the match being on the balance at that moment, yet he played the whole match today. Again, why?

No idea.

We needed to win. We won.

I hate the complacency of the 2nd half,, because with respect to Southampton we should be seeking to batter them, but playing a second string would have been madness, in my opinion.
 
Posters can read into every single fcuking quote Postecoglou makes as much as they like. Who cares. He ain't got long to go as our manager.

Let's see what he does between now and Thursday,but from minute one to the last l, he must ensure we are non-stop and on it.

He needs to get both the team selrction and the messaging spot on, then let's see.

Johnson may have given him food for thought in terms of the starting eleven.

It'll be the 3rd game in 7 days for many of our key players, in a competition that's supposedly the priority. Seems a bit dangerous in my opinion. Hopefully the players will get sufficient rest this week before the match.

Wolves away will be the problem imo

We will have energy for Frankfurt but then need to rotate heavily away from home at an in form side that’s fighting to secure their place in the PL. they will be fresher and run like mad, then mix in a few choice moments to kick the shit out of us and we will decide to sack it off and lose

We will definitely lose to wolves, we always seem to lose up there when in form nevermind now.

Could be. Seems like it will catch up with us in 1 of the next 2 games certainly.

Away from home on a Sunday after EL? Even more predictable.

They will put a few heavy challenges and we’ll have a ref with a “high threshold”. We will push forward half-heartedly and then get done after giving it away or when they break a flakey attempt at a press.

On the plus side, I do think we will be well up for it on Thursday night

So Tel's penalty hits the back of the net with the last kick, I'm up n out of my seat heading for the station.

Earphones go in, radio goes on.

Perry Groves. Ex gooner who has no love for Spurs is on.

"If it wasn't for Ramsdale, it would have been 7 or 8. Southampton were terrible, it was walking football in the 2nd half"

Did he watch a different game? They were all over us for the 2nd half. We barely got out of our half for the first 20 minutes of it.

WTF did he say to the team at half time?
"I want ya to gah aht there mate, and make em skwoorm"
YES BOSS, GO FOR THE KILL!
"Not Southampton mate, the fans, make THEM skwooooorm"
