Bewildered

Forget not getting out of second gear, Villa didn't even need to start the engine to win that. Points totals aside i can't see how this side aren't the worst in PL history.

That he has to find a different way to play because the players can't play the way his other teams played (where to be fair in Serie A for Torino, at least defensively, they did work). The guy has pretty much ruined his reputation coming here

Juric should call his strategy the guard of honour the way the players move aside and let opponents run clean through the middle. The guy should be gone at final whistle on the last game at the latest, even if it means appointing the tea lady as Caretaker until summer.

1st half Positives: Goal Wellington Negatives: The rest

Depressing, Juric will need to work miracles to make this shower look even vaguely competitive. Only Les looked up to it today.

Couldn't have asked Villa to play worse and we're still losing and posing no threat.

Chelsea down to 11 men with that sending off

They've given up. Brighton aren't even in 1st gear, they haven't even started the engine and they are still winning.

Yeah the ref sucked and was seemingly out to screw us, bur Martin's subs showed he doesn't have what it takes at this level.

It'as like he decides the matchday squad by raffle.

Players and coaching staff should be ashamed of themselves.

I think he should, but won't.

May as well get Stewart on, even if he had to hobble around on crutches, he couldn't have worse movement than Archer.

Russball found out, again. Arma, Stephens, Smallbone, Aribo, THB (hugely disappointing this so far this season) All fucking shit.

Are there experienced PL strikers, who can score goals in this league and would be affordable wages wise that are available for loan?

Poor performance, outside of the first 10 minutes of the 2nd half there was no intensity or pace to our play. McCarthy - should have called out to Sugawara that he had the ball covered for the goal Sugawara - promising, but struggled for space going forward as Armstrong wouldn't move inside to create space KWP - by far our best player, at this stage of the transfer window, we must not sell. THB - thought he was lousy, especially his passing. Stephens - was whatever, takes way too long to move the ball on when he gets it. Bednarek - no comment Downes - only midfielder who looked up to it at this level, but was often surrounded as Forest knew he is the one who dictates play for us. Smallbone - a squad player at best in the PL Aribo - see Smallbone Arma - doesn't have what it takes at this level. movement isn't good enough. BBD - stayed out wide for reasons that are beyond me as he's too slow and lumbering Subs: Edozie - hopeless, makes the wrong decision every time Archer - stayed in the middle, but other than one shit layoff, did he touch the ball? Fernandes - showed some promising signs Taylor - looked like he has a decent cross, too bad he only had dwarves to aim at since BBD refuses to actually go central Dibling - impressive, only attacking player that tried to take responsibility and try and make something happen. Manager - not really sure what he's thinking with this 5-5-0 formation or whatever it is.

McCarthy will get us relegated if he is not replaced. Othet than that we were OK, were competitive even when 11 v 11 however didn't look like scoring.

We're shopping in Lidl while the rest of the league shops at Waitrose.

Horrendous, despite letting the ball go through his legs for the goal, McCarthy kept the score down in the end.

Martin has to go in the Summer. Next season with a much weaker squad he'll have us nowhere near the playoffs.

Highlight of the half was manning getting a 5th booking, ensuring he can't play the next game. Nothing going forward bar a couple of instances of individual skill, midfield pedestrian and sloppy in possession and defense playing themselves into trouble any chance they get, a typical saints performance.

If we let Adams, Mara and Ballard leave, surely that means we are looking at more than one striker. Makes no sense to let 3 (or 4 if Onauchu also leaves) and only bring in 1, who is injured.

Tedious to watch, QPR happy to sit back and counter and we are making it too easy for them to do it. We'll lose if we play that badly second half.

Are we going to try and keep anyone worthwhile or are we just going flog them in favour of an army of children brought in on loan/cheap?

This second half performance may be the most pathetic display yet.
