😀dont think he appreciated the hair ruffle from Stephens!!

𝑀𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡. But he needs to show when he gets the opportunities. “I think there are just little glimpses of him just beginning to get angry, which I am enjoying, just beginning to be someone who might have to get angry in order to show what he wants to do. “What we want from him is being direct, taking people on, committing people, Jack Grealish does it in a way where he drags the ball and brings people to him and find a way of not releasing. “It doesn’t need to be all one way, but he needs to get a way of becoming that player who we bought that we thought would be creative. Are you going to get us some assists, are you going to score some goals? He is just showing little signs that he is heading towards that a bit better. “I think Tyler is more angry with himself. He is quite a quiet boy, but I think he is angry with himself because I think he is realising that if I don’t get my finger out than I am going to get pushed aside here. “He has more competition but that is what happens in football. If you want to be at the elite end of football then the competition is stiff and you have to live with that.”

But he makes saves and commands his box! I'd always go with that above Bazunu-esque neat footwork!

Not to mention replacing that clown of a goalkeeper who is now thankfully at Stoke (albeit for not long enough), and playing 4 at the back. In fairness, who could've seen that that was what we needed from the start of the season? (Apart from about 30,000 Saints fans.)

Its out of Saints hands. At this stage its how may points can teams above us lose but not losing to teams below us closely doing help either if we draw. We are relying on team below us to take points off teams above us but that won't happen for sll teams like Preston beat Pompey. Bristol, Millwall and Birmingham also won and have not really gained much. Can Saints really get another 8,9 or 10 wins. Its like the great escape but in reverse. We were very lucky today. Can we get away with stupid back pass blunders and opposition missing sitters for 8 games.

James Ward-Prowse not in the squad for Burnley on Saturday. Scored a good free kick for the U21’s during the week, although the opposition keeper chose to set himself fifteen miles away.

Can see a flukey Leicester win to bring us back down to earth. But then I think we’ll beat them on the cup down here.

You can’t deny he’s turned things around in the last four games, fair play. It was only three weeks or so ago he was being questioned about whether he was right to lead the team into Sheffield United and then the Portsmouth game.

That's true and I think making the playoffs is unlikely but Millwall or hull could start losing points too. 10 points is a lot but two wins and that becomes four if they lose both.

Seeing Newcastle capitulate despite all their oil money is extremely satisfying. Even more satisfying is seeing Jacob Murphy handball for the penalty.

Coach 1 and 2 still available and coach 3 not even available. Normally I book the coach when only coach 3 and about 10 seats left. Good for the drinkers as won't be a queue not for a piss HT. Do I need to bring some books for the Saints library!

Have to say we do look to be lacking fitness. Not only does this show with us consistently slowing in the second halves and particularly last 20mins but also notably when we break barely anyone has busted a gut to get forward. Perhaps if we were fitter our skill would be clearer to see…

Called it months ago 😇😉

I reckon you need maybe 25-28 more points to make the play offs. Being brutally honest and despite or recent showing, I still don’t see us getting that, we’re way too inconsistent and fragile when the going gets tough. We tend to have to rely on a terrible team to let us win to get us back on track.

I'd not be surprised to see our play-off chances going down to the last day of the season, with us needing a win and another team surprisingly dropping points....or the other way around.

Teams will be taking points off each other in the play off mix, and March is I’d normally the time when the relegation threatened teams start to pull their finger out too. It’s going to be an interesting one.

Has M1 not been released yet or have we sold that bit? Otherwise its just the gey dots in M2 and M3 about 340!!

Another multi-club model benefit!

He wanted to leave more than once and has come up short again. None of us outside of his family should invest any emotion in his future unless you are a masochist. He's set for life, barring some horrendous financial decisions. Well done to him and his advisors. We don't need him back here, that is certain.

This entirely. But he isn’t our problem, so he can enjoy the life of luxury and being remembered as a “meh” player.

At the time he signed, he was fine for the premier league…

For some context, Coventry would be 5th in the table right now in the season we went up with Ipswich and Leicester. This league is not at the level of what it was two seasons ago. 5 teams between us and the playoffs have dropped points this weekend. If we keep winning games, we make the play offs.

i fear hes going to be one of those players that just falls off the radar,in that respect his agent has done a great job for him in getting him life changing money

It would be tough enough even if the teams above us didn’t win a point while we climbed up. But obviously that’s not going to happen - there’s every likelihood that 6 teams will win as many points as us, or more. Plus there are teams just below us that could start picking up points too. So a play off place is possible, but highly unlikely.

Fingers crossed. But feel it will be dependent on selling Ramsdale.
