Totally wrong… he’s not a player in any shape or form

What’s he got over Ralph???

If only he’d done down in the league cup final when his shirt was pulled back.. Man U would have been down to 10 men as it was a blatant 2nd yellow. He’s been a decent signing and deserves his move.

Does elynoussi have images of Ralph in uncompromising positions… he’s got something over Ralph, surely. He’s average at best, zero trickery, no pokery and slow.

Thank god.. we don’t need a crab 🦀 footballer

Dyche… some very desperate people on this thread

Then again so did Steve de ridder

I’m guessing the continued endorsement of Nathan tella must be club driven.. he’s the only player really getting playing time that’s come from the academy. He’s not ready, nowhere near and needs a season on loan. but to persist last night was criminal, his confidence and body language was shot to pieces within the first 20 mins.

I do love a good pie chart!!

I really started to like this team around new year.. now they can all just feck off… gutless

Thomas frank would be the name I’d imagine

That second half performance was an embarrassment. Wrong subs at the wrong time. Tella was on about 45 mins to long. we resorted to hoof football because we completely lost the midfield, no penetration from wide, nothing up top.

Legend as a player but becoming a lose cannon on social media. Sky obviously aware of his ramblings and likely a factor in his contract not being renewed. Sad

A couple of United players have turned up today which makes the difference, we need to get in and around mctomminay as he’s on a yellow. But at times we’ve looked more than capable and with long and Walcott to come in we’re be fine 😂

Let’s be realistic here. City are on an immense run of wins and they are right at the top of their game. They’ve an incredible squad so it’s going to be tough but a free hit. 3-0 saints 😄

Bennett has been on a yellow most of the game.. at not one point as any saints striker pulled into him.. he’s dead slow and a red card in the offing. It’s been pretty obvious

I really hope the commentators ask Ralph why in virtually every game this season we are totally under pressure in the second half of games. I never recall a trend like this under any other manager. Why does every manager totally work out how to turn games around against us.

Sorry but never want to see Walcott in a saints shirt.. been dreadful and blocking tella’s development.

Walcott delivering the worst substitute ever substitute performance since ali dia. Oh feck now this.

I think he’d be brilliant running our academy at some point. Certainly an upgrade on the current set up. always though he was tactically pretty sound and had the ability to change throughout the match. He had some decent players but back to back promotions and the pressure on him to achieve that will always make him one of my favourite saints managers.

Why is it our players never contest bizarre decisions. Take the penalty that wasn’t given at the etihad, the city players were all over Jon moss, getting into his ear. Today when the red card incident occurred I didn’t see anyone getting into the refs ear. We seriously need to work on the dark arts a bit more. As for the game, I thought we could of got something out of it. But we just look like there are a couple of empty shirts playing up front. Armstrong really needs a goal but the service is just non existent. Another season of struggle ahead.

There has to be reason for our woeful 2nd half performances. It’s one of the following, absolutely no mental strength within senior players, the inability of our coaches to predict the changes opposing teams make at half time, lack of quality or a manager who’s tactically inept. New players, same mentality and mentality is driven from the coaching set up. Personally I’d have ditched Ralph’s coaching team and provided him with someone who’s been around the top divisions.

Knowing saints, they’ll likely go and spend 15 million on Wesley hoedt

He’s gone to a club showing some ambition from a club showing none. He’s gone to a club that’s likely to push top 8 from a club that’s going to be lucky to stay out the bottom 3. How can anyone blame him. You wouldn’t stay in a workplace that’s likely to struggle when the opportunity arises to move into a more stable environment for more money..

If we end up losing out to Norwich then just shows the level of our ambition and the level of incompetence at the club. The ings deal happened rapidly but I’d imagine it’s been drawn up for a week or so already. To be fair it’s decent money for a player who’s chances of playing a full season are not that high. But we’ll be considerably weaker as a result in my opinion , no matter who comes in, if any. Who knows what Gao will do with the money, I wouldn’t be surprised if not all the money is spent. I just can’t help thinking we’re kick off from where we ended last season, it’s hard to see any positives at the moment. Club needs a new owner.
