Shut up Carra, it's a dive.

Need 200% more from Tella.

Redders! Cracker.

Better.

Let's see if we get the drop ball.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

Could be a busy night for McCarthy 🙂

Who leaked the team line up? We have a mole in the camp.

Why no Romeu?

Scored so many goals and had so many good touches/passes on skills video they only showed each one once rather that 3-4 times like they do when they're padding out the video.

I think we all realise we are not going down. However, we all want to see a proper performance with fight, passion and effort. A loss is still the likely result but at least show some courage Saints.

City get one back.

Yeah, if City lose today Liverpool will smell blood and goal difference could well decide the title. They'll be well at it on Tuesday and, if we come out half hearted, another big beating is on the cards with the forwards they've got. Fortunately it won't be vital to our Premier league status but I don't think Ralph can afford to witness his team get a thrashing.

I have this nagging feeling that we're going to sign Harry Winks. Hope I'm wrong.

Looks good.

Our defending makes the Keystone Cops look organised. It is a complete shambles and Ralph needs to explain what is going wrong and how he intends to put it right. I get that he's not on the pitch making the embarrassing errors and cock-ups but the buck stops with him.

If it is true that Ralph does not listen to others then this is a sure way of losing the players and coaching staff. He will have left himself isolated and unpopular and caused a huge rift between himself and those he is meant to be working with, players and coaches alike. This is very bad news if true but explains a lot.

I think the new owners will be instructing us to take the moneyball approach. Identify average players who look to have room for improvement with the right coaching. Whether it will work or not depends upon a) identifying the right players and b) having the right coaches in place. Right now I'm not exactly confident about a) or b).

Just as bad.

For me it started with the 4-0 defeat at Villa.That seemed to be the catalyst for this run we are on. Prior to that we'd been playing well and had some great results. For some reason we were dire at Villa Park and the rot set in. I don't understand why one poor performance should lead to an onset of abysmal displays.

Pretty sure if they were any good we wouldn't be witnessing the current shit show every game. The odd blip is acceptable but we are playing well below the required levels. Manager and coaches need to take a fair share of the responsibility for that. They are very well paid so should be earning their big salaries.

Er...CHELSEA and Liverpool I believe.

Puel as manager would be a sure-fire way of driving down season ticket sales I'm afraid. Leicester fans thought the same about him as the majority of Saints fans. Not the answer for me.

Please tell me this is a joke. We already have 3 goalkeeping coaches none of who seem to be able to improve our current goalies and I accept they don't have a lot to work with. However, it would be pure madness to fork out a salary and take up a spot with yet another goalkeeping coach. If he's better than the existing three then sack them and keep Caballero and bring in some decent outfield coaches including a defensive one because we are a complete shambles in that department.

Lambs to the slaughter.
