The weird thing is, we scored 3 goals - attacking football isn’t the issue, our issue is we can’t faaacking defend - try and fin the last time Southampton scored 3 goals against Prem opposition.

You are right about the Prem - we could have gone third yesterday - you really have to question the quality of the rest of the league based on that alone, just how poor are some of these sides

At least you saw some goals Chronic.

Spot on Chron

I’ve been all over the place following Spurs and as you said we’ve seen our lot roll over time and time again.

I don’t do too many away games these days and I’ve only been to Chelsea away this season where funnily enough we scored a late equaliser.

Conte is right in some of his rant but it’s on him as well

We just want to see some attacking football.

I take my hat off to our away support

You're right about it showing up the league. Very poor standard league this season, with us not turning up most games and still being in prime position for top 4. It's another Leicester type season. If we had got our shiiit together we could have been doing similar to Arsenal and benefiting from teams that finished above us last season, having mares this season. Even Man City not at their best.

Feels in some ways like a chance missed.

Conte tried to shut up shop at 3-1

It invited Southampton on to us and we folded again!

Or it could be that you're being a little over dramatic and hyperbolic and your season isn't as bad you're making it in your head?

Wouldnt say you're a really poor side, on your day with some cracking players you can upset any team in world football. A really poor side wouldnt be capable of some of the results Spurs have gotten. Just massively inconsistent like a lot of others and the strength of the prem means underestimate at your own peril really.

Look, its clear a lot of teams are not at their best and dropped off from their last few seasons but Arsenal are averaging a very respectable points total, if they continue it to the end theyll end on 93 points lesta got 81 and 2nd place got 71, 5 more than Arsenal have after 27 games.

Let me patronise Arsenal as I wish please.

I don't really get this stuff about it being a poor league. It's just really hard to win games in this league. Just look at Liverpool and Chelsea everyone can see they are off it this season if the league was weak they'd still be close to the top because they'd still beat most teams even though they haven't been good simply because they've still got decent players. The fact is if your slightly off it in this league you will get punished. The fact you are fourth at the moment you should see as a positive because you playing at your best. Whether that's good enough is another debate.

3/4 players? Your being kind. Lloris, Tanganga, Sessegnon, Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Son and all the other losers can follow him out the door too. I could name even more players. We need to rid of 85% of these losers and start all again

We are only sitting in fourth because the teams behind us have loads of games in hand. We also need to visit both Anfield and St James. Once that’s done, we’ll be down in 6th or 7th.

As it stands we have made absolutely no improvement on last season. We have gone out of the cups and Europe at similar stages and we're actually 2 points off last season in the league from the equivalent fixtures.

For a manager such as Conte in his second season (or first full season), we were supposed to be seeing progress compared to last season and he's supposedly had a stronger squad with which to do it this time round. Results no better and if anything performances are worse.

When you consider all that then he really should be packing his bags, rant or no rant.

We are far from playing at our best. If we we were playing at our best, it would be more expansive and entertaining. We showed at the tail end of last season it is in the locker.

What is to say that was a purple patch and this is the standard, you can argue both sides of the coin. You'd obviously like to see year on year improvement but that isn't always possible given injuries and loss of form. I'd say given the players you have available at the moment your pretty much where you should be. You ain't near the top two in terms of quality but your better than the rest.

Equally Spurs beat City and lose the following week to Leicester 4-1. Beat Chelsea 2-0 then lose the next game to Sheffield. Nothing about last season was to do about ‘purple patches’. It was more to do with consistency. Something we lack this season compared to the 2nd half of last season. Whether or not that’s to do with tactics or attitude and/or a mix of both is debatable.

Didn't you do the same last season beat City then lose to Burnley. I'd argue there ain't much difference for you from this season to last season up to this point. It's up for debate to see if you finish the season like you did last season.

The players and the manager are soft.
Not winners, led by harry kane, not a winner by any stretch.
You'll finish seventh. About right for this team.

Levy appointed Conte and failed to give him the tools to do his job, so there is no surprise we are still shiete.

We are as likely to finish 7th as Leeds are to avoiding relegation.
