We're in that no-man's land in the Premier League. We're good enough to need backups who are top tier, but can't afford to pay many first choice players top tier wages, let alone the backups. We have to try to create a team spirit such that players like Trippier, Davies, Janssen, Sissoko etc - the guys who will probably always be second choice - are happy to be a part of things, getting games in the cups and covering for injury. I think that having Trippier around has put a lot of pressure on Kyle Walker, and he has unequivocally risen to the challenge. I'd like to think that Trippier is happy in his current position, thanks in large part to Poch, but he can't work miracles.

 

You can rely on Sissoko, proper team player that lad :lol:

Just seen the run Southampton have had to the League Cup Final. Palace, Sunderland, Arsenal, Liverpool. Fair play to them considering they'll have no doubt fielded changed teams along the way, even if two of them are struggling Premier League teams.

They've not conceded a goal yet in the competition either

That Sutton sub goalie. :lol: Munching through a massive pie in the second half.

 

Looks like it was a betting scam.

 

How's that?

 

One of those wank Paddy Power bets?

Magic of the cup right there.

 

Shit fat, banter merchants in cahoots with betting companies owned by a rancid media company for cash. Graeme Kelly will have a nostalgic tear in his eye.

 

Takes all the limelight away from his teammates & their performance too, great guy.

If they can prove they were in cahoots in any way, could it come back to bite them in the arse? If not, I'd hazard a guess that no one will give a shit on the basis that it's not exactly a bet that causes an affect on an actual outcome of a competitive sports event.
