all my money on draw for this game (well, not all)
Both teams will be happy with this result. 1-1 I reckon.

 

[SALTIRE]

I fancy a draw as well but think there will be more goals, 2 - 2 for me. Think I'll watch it.

 

[Dirk]

Congratulations Steven!!!! I've just checked my 1FF Predictions and I had a 1-3 for Hull vs ManCity and 3-1 for Liverpool vs Stoke. So only 2 points compared to your 6
For today I have a 1-1
If you got this 3-3 right again than I have to pay attention that you don't pass me soon in the ranking list .

I'll be shocked if this one is a 3-3 but it's the time of year for crazy goalfests and I do fancy a draw!

 

[Benji]

Southampton have started very keen. Good header by van Dijk, I sense goals.

 

[SALTIRE]

Great start to the match here, could be on for a cracker.

 

[SALTIRE]

After a bright and energetic start from Soton, since the Spurs goal its been all them.

Southampton have been defending well, though - they've coped easily so far.

More fuel to the Arsenal fan theory of Dean supporting Spurs...

...that was an awful red card decision.

 

[Super_horns]

Kyle Walker banned then - well that is one less player we need to worry about Sunday.

Shame about the other 10 who could probably easily beat us on their own.

I know they changed the rules on it this year, but have they changed it from being an auto dismissal if the attacker is through on goal?

I'm not entirely sure, it certainly didn't look anything like a red in this instance though.

Oh I dunno, he went to ground pretending to look as if he was falling when he was clearly trying to bring him down when he was about to shoot. Red card for me.

 

[Benji]

I think the new rule is on Mike Dean's side. If it's an intentional pull/push/foul, then you still give a red for a goalscoring opportunity.

I was right about the goalfest but I didn't quite get the score right...

...or the result.

 

[SALTIRE]

Spurs did well here going up last with the pressure on. Good win.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

Dominated until they went 1-1 and then shit the bed. We were scared of them and Puel done what he does best and went negative as fuck.

Lucky it was only 4. At least Redmond misses the next game, hopefully we leave him in Norwich after our cup game. They are his level.

Welcome

...or the result.

...and I had only the 1 goal for Southampton right. And the 1-1 was right from the 19th until the 52nd minute

This Fraser Forster guy: a big man but I can't help myself he often looks in his goal as if he is too short (although the header from Alli was brilliantly placed)

 

[Jamie_SFC]

FFS can see that Redmond red card getting rescinded. Mike Dean allows an advantage from the initial tug (which is a red card if he gives the free kick) and the contact inside the box is accidental.

Hope Liverpool come in for him.
