0-0 draw nailed on. Hughes stumbles on as manager

Gunn Cedric Yoshida Vestergaard Bertrand PEH Lemina Armstrong Redmond Ings Gabbiadini Changes at GK and CB as shipping 6 cant be good for confidence. Leave Long at home. Hughes will 100% not pick this team because he doesnt rate Yoshi, Armstrong and Gabbi

Strachan...dear god no. The game has passed him by. A young manager who plays an attacking brand of football please.

Would take a 9-0 drubbing and Hughes hopefully getting sacked

Can see us reverting to the 5-3-2 and attempting to defend for 90 mins. Would rather we went for it and lost by a few than sit in and still lose 2 or 3 nil (with no shots on target)

Toby, VVD, Mane and Pelle

Your obsession with Hoedt is just odd

Cant score goals, cant win at home, cant beat our expected relegation rivals. Recipe for relegation. Its not all Hughes fault but as always the buck stops with the manager. Not sure who we could bring in but Hughes cant have any complaints getting sacked with his record in charge. The last two and a half years have been dreadful as a saints supporter. Big changes needed but Reed/Krueger will not walk away so i guess a manager change is all we can hope for

Good point against an in form Bournemouth. Means nothing if we fail to beat Newcastle. 6 goals all season is a worry though especially considering Ings has provided the majority. An injury to him and im not sure where the goals are coming from. The likes of Redmond, Moi, Austin, Lemina, Gabbi etc need to start finding the net

Giroud always scores against us, that much is guaranteed

I wouldnt say hes mad. I would include Redmond with those players you've mentioned. Started the season very well but hopefully he can keep that going and be more consistent than the last few years

As much as Long frustrates, i cant blame him for Duffys goal. The ball is crossed from 30+yards and Duffy heads it on the six yard line. McCarthy needs to command his area better and collect it or punch it away. Basic mistakes.

And its nothing to do with subs, the players on the pitch should be able to deal with two hopeful balls into the box

Brighton may be the worst team to come to SMS in a long time and we still cant see them off at 2-0 up. All they had was hoof ball into the box and we cant deal with it. Just embarassing really

Same applies to the use of the word cringe

Would have him ahead of Les Reeds poster boy everyday, regardless of his age

Gabbiadini

If Cedric doesnt overhit his pass and finds Longs chest as intended, the first goal definitely doesnt get scored

Yeah because Hughes has a long history of giving young players coming through a chance

Read the post. I said its bad when its now his best attribute, a player with an abundance of pace who doesnt utilise it well enough and a player who under Koeman chipped in with quite a few goals. Hes been dire in front of goal the last few years, cant argue with that. We're entitled to opinions and I dont think hes a good enough option. Would have Gallagher ahead of him

This. Not PL standard, hasnt been for a few years. Its bad when his best attribute now is holding the ball up. We could do with a big striker in january who could do this, offer some physical threat and of course, score some goals

Good to see Elyonnoussi have a good game. Was being wrote off by some posters on here after 3 games. Standard saintsweb i suppose

Same can be said for Romeu. Seen buses turn quicker.

Totally agree, plays this position regularly for NI and has scored/assisted a few. Suits his game. His fitness is the issue now

As long as we dont have one of those ultra sections which palace have plagarised from europe. Big flags, somebody leading the chants on a megaphone, jumping up and down. Just septic
