Interesting stat reported in mail yesterday that for season so far
Soton, villa, Swansea had made the most long passes. Just shows you can
Pass the ball between the back as much as you want but stil hoof it.
The game is about goals at the end of the day.
Absolutely nothing wrong with getting it to the sharp end as soon as possible. Still good skills required to convert the good position into goals.
Stats Schmats. Our 32% possession would be a far greater indicator of who passed the ball better. I'll happily take the win but let's not start taking the moral high ground and pretending everyone else plays sh!t football and we pass it around loads.
We are a defensive team who concede possession and put 10 men behind the ball, it's crude but very effective of late. We are the just like Wimbledon & Stoke were which is absolutely fine but we ain't Brazil and Southampton could easily have won yesterday.
Personally I would love to have a players like Adam Lallana, Ramirez, Shaw & Ward-Prowse at West Ham and no amount of stats will convince me that they are the new Rory Delap.
sod the high ground, but i'll take the 3 goals though!![]()

It is entirely possible to be grateful for the points and still understand that our team is a bit of a minger to watch.
We are the Pat Butcher to Arsenals Kate Beckinsale.
