This does have some merit. However our two centre backs have proved all season they are not good enough… Ipswich are exploiting our two slow centre backs.

We really are not marking up.They can pass where they like, far too passive….. RM coached not to mark up, rather hoped Juric would change that..

You lost all credibility when you said Bednerek deserved his spot…. He clearly doesn’t and should be sold or rented out….. The guy is not good enough ….

Yes the refs and Var have been terrible but that is only a minor distraction from all the major issues we have and don’t really warrant a mention in the grand scheme of things …

A fair summary. It is true to say that most football managers cannot see what is in front them and despite what some fans seem to think football is not some dark art that only ‘football people’ understand. This is why Cortese was so good. Cortese could cut through the crap and realise who had genuine football understanding and who would be pretenders. Juric is doing his best but still he needs to adjust his thinking to compensate for what we don’t have and look further than those that continue not to perform and still are picked every week. Football is stuck in a time warp of doing the same thing over and over with no progressive thinking and problem solving. Look for another Cortese, the aggression, assertive thinking and progressive knowledgeable management which is missing has to filter down from the top. In our club there appears to be no accountability and that is true for players right up to the CEO. I like Juric but he needs to justify his decisions for he, like other managers before him clearly needs some guidance and reporting structure to justify everything he does, particularly if we are struggling…. Our club is blowing in the wilderness with no apparent culpability. Meanwhile let’s continue with the same shit every single day expecting a different result…. Mid term report: No leadership No structure No culpability Gold plated players with no right to their status.

Definitely not, he is truly shit… Not even one one our top 20 players and that really is saying something !!!

Armstrong has proved to be a complete waste of space this season, there is no point what so ever in playing him. Why is Sam Amo being completely ignored…. The lad has bags of skill yet doesn’t even get on the bench….

Plus Denis Hollywood of course 😁👍

Not in the Premier League he didn’t and nor would he again in the Championship.

Because he is really crap???

Great performance until the subs who are not good enough in particular AA and Smallbone. Also thank you Martin for ensuring we are now catching up with player fitness… Martin was criminally bad ….

AA and Smallbone….. Juric will learn the hard way for sure ….

As most people have said shame to leave out big Les who had a great game against Spam. What AA is doing on a Premier League pitch I really have no idea. Willing to give Juric the benefit of the doubt but this team looks a bit weak…

Well not really. Tall Paul created chances that wouldn’t have been there without him. We were visibly tired second half and that is down to RM is his part time strategy.

Unlucky to lose. Much improved all over the pitch. We look a totally different team. Martin lost us that game through the players not being up to premier fitness.. If only The owners did something about that months ago. How they could allow Martin to turn the team into part timers is beyond comprehension.

This is spot on. What were Sports Republic doing allowing Martin to run the team on a part timers basis??? The owners really were as incompetent as Martin to allow this ludicrous situation to develop and continue.

What exactly was Martin running at our club? Was he ever at work ? unbelievable attitude to work and preparing for games. Martin was obviously a blithering idiot!

What is it with our staff picking Armstrong up front when every shred of evidence tells us he is crap there!

Have to say that Rusk was very impressive tonight. Made changes when needed to tactics and personnel. Yes could have changed Dibling possible but on the whole very refreshing start from Rusk….

He is really crap though….

What is very worrying about this is the board allowing RM to run the team in such a shambolic way for so long…. What was going on? Meet up twice a week see who fancies it and pick a team out of the ones who aren’t on the piss the night before the game, it’s Sunday league stuff RM was acting like. No wonder the team was crap, unfit and resembled a group of strangers chucked together with randomness every week. Really the directors have a lot to answer for allowing RM to run a bunch of part timers for so long….

Utter madness, what the hell is going on at Saints! Talk about amateur. This is down to RM what a clown!

This manager never learns and never will! Armstrong up front for crying out loud and Sulumana who has been terrible every single time he has played. What possible justification is there for his personnel decisions which wildly different all the time… The only positive shock is that Aribo has been selected after playing well for a number of weeks and usually means you are dropped! Sick of this fraud of a manager.

They are being told how to pass it to our marked players in our defensive third. They wouldn’t continue in exactly the same way otherwise. This is down to Martin and no one else….

That’s him out of the squad next game !
