  1. Past hour
  2. His finishing is pretty poor but it always has been. We brought him in for assists and he did an OK job last season with that despite playing a fair chunk at RWB. Thought he put a few decent crosses in today as well and if Larin (or someone better than BBD) was on the pitch then it would be a different story. Most of the time he's playing as an inside forward though and not hugging the touchline and that's not his position. He's a winger who gets dangerous crosses in so play him that way, none of this cutting inside bollocks, just let him concentrate on what he's good at.
  3. Feels like some slightly harsh criticism of Fellows as an option whatsoever in here. 9 assists last year and a player at 23 who has every chance to improve. Needs to score some goals this year without a doubt, but certainly would not be giving up. Brilliant ball carrier who needs to and hopefully can step up.

    This is an excellent version of one of the songs she did with Paul Heaton. For some reason I've watched this a few times.
  6. Totally agree with this. Archer has been promising in pre season and looked a threat today. Imagine we'd want at least half of what we paid for him (so £7.5m) and as you say, not sure who's going to pay that for him.
  7. Bowls of fucking water on the floor in every doorway / under every table / just fucking everywhere to just stand in / upset / trip over.
  8. Cracking tekkers from the man who is Also Known As Chukwu. Calm finish. Future's bright.

  10. But what are his thoughts on Carlton Palmer? 😁
  11. My 12 year old said "Dias is rubbish". No more text required.
  12. Both, Turkey in WW1 and Italy in WW2.
  13. Woah woah woah, I remember Carlton Palmer being really good for Saints! Is this some fever dream I've had or am I right? Thought as a defensive midfielder he was great?
  14. He has looked poor for quite a long time now and also without one goal or even looking like scoring. … Fellows needs to have a loan or few months in the stiffs to develop his game more. Certainly he needs a rethink…
  15. I imagine they were chuffed to bits when he finally showed them what he’s capable of.

    Thought he put some two or three good balls into the box today, unfortunately it was before Larin was on the pitch
  17. Soft underbelly and all that. Or was that Italy?
  18. He was at loan at Colchester last season and made fifteen appearances for them. Didn't score for them though.
  19. In fairness it was one particular person wasn't it?

    Watching Paul Heaton at Bramall Lane on tv. Rianne Downey looks great. Superb voice too
  21. Last season he was a bit prone to playing blind passes inside when under pressure.
  22. Yes, Archer had a really good cameo today. There was one bit where he did a great tackle on the edge of our penalty area, laid it off and before you knew it he was down the other end to receive a pass and a shot on their goal. Matsuki is better on the wing. He loses the ball sometimes and it's much better to do it there than in central midfield. Leo looked like his shirt didn't fit (evidently enjoyed the summer break) and Dobbin's passing was off centre today, but that was his debut. Once again, Downes oozed class. Bree and Manning also looked in control as did Jack and THB in the second half. Shea Charles came over at the end of the game to applaud and take the applause from the fans....so he's definitely off.
  23. I think a lot is down to how a player is used and confidence. Everything said now about BBD sounds very familiar to what we we're saying at Feyenoord about Larin: terrible first touch, immobile, awfull finisher. And look how Cyle is reborne at Saints! Somehow our system just clicks with his attributes and that gives him confidence. He now looks like a gift from heaven
  24. Starting from -4 that would be 8 points from the first 5 matches, not a bad start and on target for @72ish. With 2 extra teams in the playoffs, that should be enough.
  25. Oh contraire... we were told last season by one of the self-proclaimed Saintsweb intelligentsia that Bragg wasn't fit to tie Downes' boots...
