He made every part of football look laboured and awkward including walking off to be substituted. About as mobile as a kitchen cabinet and with a worse first touch.

We've looked so much better since Bragg and Larin came on. We shouldn't underestimate the difference that Bragg alongside Downes has made.

The more worrying thing is losing the ball is stupid areas of the pitch.

Sky commentary "Bereton-Diaz is not really an out and out striker". Or out and out footballer for that matter.

BBD has to be the unluckiest footballer ever. He goes off and we cross a lovely ball into the box.

Larin!

Once you're past the event horizon of abysmal comparisons are no longer possible.

He even manages to make walking off look laboured and difficult.

Tonda IN. BBD Out.

A functioning midfield and a number nine that is a nuisance would make a big difference to us in the second half. Charles/Azaz/Larin for Fellows/Dobbin/BBD with Matsuki going wide right.

One of our own players collided with him 🤦‍♂️

He's played a few games for Saints. I think we have his measure. He's a big bloke that doesn't run much and has a trampoline first touch. This isn't some exciting new signing - it's a bloke who has never looked the part in the Saints shirt.

I often mention them in the same breath. Haaland is everything you want in a striker - big, pacy with an eye for goal, meanwhile we've got BBD>

BBD had a touch there. And what a touch!

All the great strikers know how to save themselves for the key moments. Take Haaland for instance.
