Charlie Wayman

He does't seem to be an improvement on Boufal that's for sure. Having potential is one thing but after two years, injuries or not, he should have shown his class by now if he has any. Diallo for example, after a couple of games everyone realised we have a player on our hands.

Yes but if you shop regularly on Amazon, the next day free delivery service - worth about £4.95 for each purchase - you only need to make a couple of purchases each month to save more than the monthly fee. Thank about that before you cancel.

Quite so and bear in mind he had to keep a weather eye on Salisu for most of the evening as well. It was noticeable that as his confidence in the debutant increased so he was able to get forward more and more in the second half. That is part of his game that many do not acknowledge and of course our central defenders have not been that dependable of late which has limited the freedom that Bertie has had to go roaming down the wing.

Ha!, thanks for the tip-off. Couldn't risk that. 👍 😇

I thought we played quite well and thoroughly deserved to win. Still need to sharpen up our finishing. Despite the hollow threat of Wolves bringing on their 'big players' later in the match when we were expected to tire (and they would run rings around us in Extra Time), it never came to that. None of their subs made much impact simply because we managed each new threat as it arose. Salisu played well enough but needs match time to speed up and sharpen up, understandably he is very rusty and the pace may have surprised him. He'll learn but Bednarek & Vestergaard remain first choice for a while yet.

Maybe it doesn't seem so long ago that you were a youngster?

Given a choice... neither!

All our good times seem to be in the past in a foreign land.

Probably thinking of taking Bednarek out of the firing line for a couple of matches?

It looks like trolling but actually wasn't. Right now we don't seem to know how to win. Of course as players return from injury things might improve but bear in mind that we had a pretty strong side out on paper on Saturday and couldn't fashion a point against 9 men. It's not all about individual self confidence either, if players stop believing that Ralph's methods can deliver success that's the hidden danger. Setting aside this last disastrous week isn't it only 1 win from the last 10 PL games? Rather worrying I wold have thought.

It's all academic as we don't have a snowball's chance of winning anything at the moment.

I doubt it is a matter of form. Most likely other clubs have studied Ings moves on and off the ball extensively and have a very good understanding now of how to blot him out of games by close marking CBs who understand his movements. Occasionally he breaks free as all good players will but most of the time he is shackled and cannot operate with the freedom he would like. Last year he was a bit of an unknown quantity and could roam to find goal scoring oppurtunities but as his reputation has risen so his effectiveness has diminished. Not a coincidence I think. The problem for us and him is that once sussed out even the best strikers rarely recover to the levels of their early promise. Think of the world's greatest strikers whose reputations have been tarnished or trashed in the Premier League in recent seasons. Aguero is arguably one of the very few who has proved capable of breaking free of that mould. Adams has clearly suffered the same fate.

His error was entirely responsible for their third goal and he never once beat his man dow the line. He's a busted flush irrespective of how vehemently you defend him.

When will this shambolic nonsense ever end. Totally pathetic. We go down to nine men we lose 9-0, when the opposition go down to nine men, bloody Saints can't even score one. Redmond is useless, just get rid. Minamino was the only bit of class in a red shirt. He made Adams, N'Lundulu look like the plodders that they are. Even Ings is becoming a waste of space. The 11 points we need are going to be very hard to find.

Move on my friend. It's becoming tedious all this endless whining about refs. It has nothing to do with tomorrow's match at St James's Park.

When did you last make an omelette without breaking eggs then? Crack on!

"Games like this can happen from time to time...." quote from RH press conference! They don't happen to anybody else matey and never twice in 18 months.

I have had nothing but grief this week by phone, text and that laughing bloody avatar with tears running down its bloody face. Thanks Hasenhüttl for bringing such joy to my life. Whoever you pick this week please spare me another week of embarrassment and humiliation.

Cheap reply.

Excellent post. Absolutely you are 100% spot on.

An inexcusable disgrace. Mr Semmens has some very serious decisions to make this week. The club are in a mess under his watch. Eight PL games without a win, four defeats in a row and now this humiliation. Most managers would have been ousted long ago. Best to call time on Ralph Hasenhüttl who all too often has flattered to deceive.

I like the idea of Liverpool being a feeder club for Saints.

Sounds like you are almost praying that the match will be called off

If the match is played surely JWP will have to play in midfield with Valery at RB. Best bet who will partner him, Armstrong maybe? McCarthy Valery - Bednarek - Stephens - Bertrand JWP - Armstrong Djenepo - Redmond Adams - Ings Doesn't look so bad after all on paper does it?

What? Move on lad and get a life.
