Saint Charlie Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 All tonight shows is that the players below the first team are quite a bit behind the first teamers, as we knew. Its been a superb season so far, but lets hope the likes of Davis, Hooiveld, Fox and Lee arent required for any stretch of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggles31 Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 Still have the FA cup which I am sure the club will take seriously. That was grade A dog sh!te from the management tonight. Worst decision from MP since he's been here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its been a superb season so far, but lets hope the likes of Davis, Hooiveld, Fox and Lee arent required for any stretch of time. Hope we can get to January without having any serious injuries to key players. Playing Hooiveld or Fox for a few games fills me with dread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 Will not dwell on tonight as mopo must have a bigger plan. Why do you call him MoPo?! It's crap. Secondly, If this isn't a cup to give the youngsters a chance then when can you give them some game time. Personally I think you have to try your best to keep squad players happy, and bring through the best youth players. I don't have any anger towards Pochettino about playing that team. You can't expect us to be able to play our best 11 every match, especially Sat/Midweek/Sat at the high intensity that we play at. Glad to see some of the youngsters get a game. Reed looks like a cracking little talent. And another debutant in Gallagher. Maybe these apps will show others that there is a way through just like JWP and Shaw.

Can we only state perceived positive things about OUR club? Or can we give our opinion? You didn't say that though did you. You say things such as...."Gaston is sh!t", "The youngsters are sh!t", "Davis Yoshida Fox and Hooiveld are sh!t" Maybe if you put things in a more respectful way, then people maybe able to drum up a discussion with you. Yes, the players tonight aren't as good as the first team...isn't that why they're not playing every week?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Saint Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 The real truth is that we are several years away from having a competitive second string. We are two or three injuries or suspensions from being in a bit of bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow_Saint Posted 7 November, 2013 Author Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Funny how the ones that don't care about the league cup can quote the last 4-5 winners, but ask them who finished 9th two years ago and they go very quiet.

Tom & Gerry Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 Sad to see the demise of cup football. It seems we now have more chance of finishing in the top 4, and that is small, than ever winning the league cup. Not saying it's right or wrong, just an observation.

Ohio Saint Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 I always want Saints to win everything they play in......But even I am not bothered about this result. Our sights are set higher than this almost-dead competition and our team needs to preserve it's energy for the high pressing league games. Now, if it were the FA cup, I'd be peed off.

Barry Sanchez Posted 7 November, 2013 Share Posted 7 November, 2013 (edited) I want to win anything, its like selfish little boys wanting the biggest piece of cake, what have arsenal won lately? How big is the trophy for coming 4th? A trophy you never get and we will never achieve that position without huge investment anyway, pointless dreams, lets dream of winning something, why go into the champions league if we can not win it?
