It’s the exact same style of play that saw us win seven out of nine last season.
I said that there was no way that Southampton could keep up that effort and energy for 90 minutes, but they certainly did.
Yes, we didn’t cope well with it and I think Bob’s tactics were too needlessly defensive when we went ahead. Asking for trouble if you ask me.
Yet, we didn’t lose, haven’t been cut adrift, and still have a good chance of surviving. Performances need to improve undoubtedly, but no need to press the panic button.
Biggest positive from yesterday? I sold two more copies of my book in the Brick pre-match.
