Agree - it can't have been easy for him with so little Premier League experience.

Guan’s words should be taken to heart by all Saints fans especially those who still have an element of faith that the club is well run. I hate to say it but the writing has been on the wall since Ms Liebherr decided to sell up.

The most depressing aspect of yesterday was Krueger ‘s interview. When I read it I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. To be honest it was a bit of an insult considering what then followed at SMS.

Gallagher scored again tonight. The Brum fans are full of praise over the last month

I've read (and written) some waffling claptrap in my time but this wins the all-time prize.

I forgot think he could operate anywhere along the front line a bit like Theo!

George Shipley

There once was a winger who left us for Arsenal and then returned 10 years later. His name? Don Roper.

As have the vast majority on here and around the city

As I said above there was an element of sarcasm in my post. You are correct I don’t like Pellegrino and I am not fickle enough to let a good result paper over obvious cracks. It’s a forum mate, not everyone is going to meet with your approval or your insistence on being non critical.

Sorry I genuinely don’t understand. My post was laced with a bit of sarcasm- is it that which upsets you?

Strange post. Pellegrino has a reputation of dropping players who put in a decent shift. That’s a fact so why you want to resort to puerile insults is bewildering to me. Sorry I ventured an opinion. Hope you feel better for throwing s few insults my way. Apologies if I upset you.

Let's not be fickle after a decent result. We were good tonight but doing it at Old Trafford should not obliterate the memory of a woeful performance v Spurs just four days ago. The Palace match will be a vital indicator, trouble is, I fear more team changes will lead to a bad performance, fans then up in arms demanding MP's head and so the merry-go-round goes on and on. Remember when Cortese ditched Adkins after a draw at Chelsea and we were all horrified? I remain steadfastly in the Pellegrino out camp.

Don't bank on it - Pellegrino will drop him v Palace because that's what he does when players have a good game!

I fully expect McCarthy will now be dropped after his clean sheet - it's the Pellegrino way!

Didn’t Targett play well at Spurs? Is he injured today or is this another strange Pellegrino decision?

Yes but we like Osvaldo now because he butted that traitor Fonte. Keep up.

No way is he a coach ready for the Premier League - this smacks of fan appeasement

Not impressed - he was pretty invisible in the artificially created liaison job. I have always thought the club over-rated his skills. This smells like an exercise in fan appeasement.

There’s some poor deluded souls who wish we still had Burley in charge.

He’s got to go but there is no leadership or vision at SMs at present and inertia and blind faith is the name of the game.

Nick, if Pellegrino had been a raging success no one would give a hoot about Puel. Puel was crap for us, turgid is not harsh enough.

He has featured in every game except one (Everton H), only Bertrand has played more minutes. He seems to have cast a spell over Reed/Pellegrino

Black is not the cause of our decline, far from it and from what I am told the players never had a problem with him. You have to look higher

Upfront in the middle for the first time. There has been a bit of a debate about it among Birmingham fans. Sam is happy to play anywhere but I think he relished the role he had centre up top yesterday.
