If he managed to get most his shots a foot inside the post instead of a foot the wrong side, he’d be on his way for huge money. As it is, he’s all fart and no shit for me. Looks good in flashes but skinning a player then losing it or shooting wide isn’t helping the cause, and neither is the lack of work rate

That was lost at 13:45, again. Left when the 2nd went in to go and watch the egg chasing, that’s how bad it’s got. Absolute shambles of a performance and a club.

A performance that completely sums up our season. Looked good in spells, got ahead then collapsed as soon as we conceded, aided by more shit decisions from the referee. Even if it wasn’t a penalty (which it wasn’t IMO) it’s a stupid challenge for Smallbone to make and give the ref the opportunity to give it. And then finding new and creative ways to concede again. Again people will say we played well and gave them a game, but it’s about the 20th time we’ve played ok and still conceded 3. 4 at the back is the way forward, and always was, with some covering defensive midfielders. Far too late.

Fuck sake. What is he thinking

Infuriating isn’t it. Not playing a striker doesn’t help, if you’ve don’t then you need runners, which we don’t have either

That’s not really a pen is it. Never giving that if it’s us the other end

If he could pass or shoot, he’d be top class

Pointless. Nobody in the box even when we get up the pitch

Giving them a bit of a game, temporarily. But the problem with not playing any strikers is that you haven’t got anyone in the right areas if you’ve got ambitions of scoring a goal or 2

How the hell Manning gets the nod ahead of Wellington, and Smallbone ahead of absolutely anyone, is beyond me. Just for a lack of athleticism, never mind skill

Looks like a 4 with big Les very deep between the 2 CBs. Should be 1-0

IMO the likes of Bednarek and Stephens are a huge part of the rot, move them on and start again. It’s been so long since we’ve witnessed competent centre halves, or a manager who knows how to coach them

State of this. Aribo and Sulemana not even trying to get back onside, let alone track back. Both should be dropped and fined for such a lack of effort ScreenRecording_02-26-2025 13-36-24_1.mov

On the replacement bus between Winchester and Southampton Central, and it’s far more entertaining than what those pricks served up at Stamford Bridge. There’s never been a PL side easier to walk through than us. We don’t need 3 at the back when we haven’t got any CBs fit. I don’t want Juric anywhere near it next season, we’ll be more likely to do a Luton than anything else

Think we’re strongly back in contention for Derby’s record
