You must be trolling 😂 So you expect us to lose every game? Not even Russell Martin is deluded enough to think we're "exceeding expectations".

I stand by the opinion he is our best player. It was a joke to drop him. If Russell insisted on playing Taylor, he should have dropped Sugawara. Sugawara has looked decent but he isn't at KWP's level.

Where's this myth that we played well against Ipswich come from? Yes we came close to winning but Ipswich were the better side that day.

Standard Russell Martin not playing to our strengths.

I'm not sure we'd be winless in 7 if we actually played this guy. Might have at least managed another draw. He needs to play. I feel the same about ABK.

At least it won't be decided by a dodgy VAR decision.

Onauchu should have been way ahead of Stewart in the pecking order.

They are two different types of player. Ward-Prowse is also the better player. And believe me there are some on here that think Downes is the better footballer. There's a couple here on the last page of the JWP thread. https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/topic/60086-james-ward-prowse/page/31/

Genuinely hilariouis some on here think Downes in better than Ward-Prowse.

I hope you enjoyed those 2 minutes lads.

Some good last ditch defending. Problem is when we have the ball. Numerous occassions be could have countered but slowed it down, took it back to our half and allowed them to re-organise.

Pulled a quad it looks like.

Is Onuachu on the bench?

Our back line is all over the place. Bednarek is going to play someone on-side.

Not many good ones. https://www.streameast.soccer/fixture/Arsenal-vs-Southampton "Player 3" seems to be the best one. Hasn't cut out yet!

Russell Martin just will not learn.

Still nobody on the edge of our box when defending a corner.

Interestingly, Danny Rohl made some comments regarding Shea Charles' fitness when he first arrived at Wednesday after a full pre-season with us.

Carlo Ancelotti, Pep Guardiola and then Unai Emery are the worlds best football coaches. Emery has completely transformed that club. Whether they can sustain their success long term, beyond the Emery years, remains to be seen but they've had a remarkable couple of years.

True. Still an infinitely better manager than Russell Martin though.

Yes he speaks English. I was rather hoping he'd take the England job.

Recently signed a new contract with a £5m sell-out clause (plus another £5m for his backroom staff). Given we'll have to spend a small fortune just to sack Martin because we stupidly gave him a new contract, I don't think Rohl is likely unfortunately.

He would do better with this squad solely for the fact he knows how to organise a defense. ABK would be straight back in the fray and Ugochukwu strikes me as his sort of signing. I don't think he would be interested in the job either but we would be the tamest fanbase he'd ever of had to contend with.

To be at least competitive you need to keep a disciplined shape and hold a defensive line. Russell doesn't know how to coach that so I'll go 5-0 Arsenal.

I'm afraid we can't Russell.
