Millwall 0 Saints 2

[Plastic]

There's no one there! Is this a training match?

[DrZuess1979 the 2nd]

If it's any consalation welbeck and Hernandez look just as shocking and they are double the money

[Tokyo-Saint]

Worst first half in a long time. We never played like this when Cortese was manager. Why are we so direct?

[saint michael]

I know they need time to get to know each other and gel. I understand that but would like to see us with more shape anted trying to keep it and pass it on the deck. Not sure where we are going with this. Maybe big Ron is thinking this will work against champ side

[BARCELONASAINT]

god this is awful, we have virtually our strongest side out and look inept. For all the slagging off of Pelle, i have got to say the service is **** poor. For the first time i am genuinely worried about this Saints side. We don't look capable of creating a thing,let alone score a goal.

[Secret Site Agent]

Premier League.....we're having a laugh.

 

Championship?......We're having a laugh.

 

League 1? ..........yeh, if we can keep tonights team together for three years.

[modern matron]

bloody hell this is depressing we look like the clock has been turned back - awful......

[SaintSteve]

Have you been drinking Mike? I've just trawled through the other posts of doom and gloom and you come up with this positive stuff?!

 

No... he's drunk... we are woeful end of

[DG]

Does Osvaldo have an emergency recall? Why are we so bad at buying strikers?

 

Hopefully this really is just gelling and not long term fail.

Indeed that's my issue.

[ART]

MK Dons leading 1 - 0

[SaintRobbie]

Millwall want it more - but have no end product in the box..... same as us!

[Dalek2003]

Well, it won't be a disaster if we lose tonight. Who cares about the League Cup. I think we will need to concentrate on staying up this year and I have held this view since the end of last season.

[washsaint]

Wow, Wanyama......2 monumentally bad decisions in 2 minutes.

 

There is just nothing about Saints this half (against a weakened Millwall team). No guile, no midfield, nothing. Absolutely horrific display so far.

[Asaint4ever]

well im worried.

[Tokyo-Saint]

That woman from Microsoft better get to work and sort this hoofball team out.

[DT]

Huge gulf in class...ahem

[Toomer]

The wife has just asked how many more times am I going to say FFS.

[VectisSaint]

I have held this view since the end of last season.

...or more precisely you have held this view since about 1984.

[OttawaSaint]

Damn this is utterly frustrating to watch, like that Cardiff game at St Marys last season. See us losing 1-0 to a hit and hoper...

[Ivan Katalinic's 'tache]

Where are the nuns? This is shocking!!!

[VectisSaint]

Missing Morgan?

[Secret Site Agent]

I reckon they should have put JROd on tonight.

 

Even on Crutches he would be better.

 

Bloody Hell.

[mulletsaint]

Being outplayed and out passed by the Championship team at the mo.

[Baird of the land]

Being outplayed and out passed by the Championship team at the mo.

 

By a championship reserve side.

[saintbob40]

Should it be Chaplo( like Pirlo) because that's what we are starting to make him look like. We are shocking.

[Jonnyboy]

He plays on the left he plays on right

Pelle! Makes Shane Long look good.

[Katalinic]

I can't think of one positive from that half - truly awful.

[Foxy]

Not great. Very disjointed.

[Suhari]

Wow.

 

Really poor. No fluidity, no zip, and no apparent game plan.

 

Really need to see something in the second half; not sure I can buy into the "it's still early in the season" stuff.

[mcjwills]

F*ck me were poor tonight

[SaintRobbie]

Well, it won't be a disaster if we lose tonight. Who cares about the League Cup. I think we will need to concentrate on staying up this year and I have held this view since the end of last season.

 

I think you're right Dalek. This is relegation fight form. We haven't got enough depth and our 'best' players are not yet ready. Worrying performance. Lets see what Koeman can do in the dressing room.

[DuncanRG]

God, that was poor.

[washsaint]

I truly cannot remember being so dispirited watching Saints play since the dark, dark days. Everything that was built through Adkins then Pochettino seems to have been thrown out of the window. Long balls to no-one, totally toothless attack and not sure what the hell the midfield is meant to be doing but Millwall have the run of 2/3 of the pitch with basically no Saints players anywhere near. Absolutely no class being displayed by anyone.

 

Gutless, guileless and extremely concerning.

[DG]

Time for Ramirez to come on and prove he's awesome.

[CB Saint]

Can't get the stream to work. Quite glad about that.

[Unbelievable Jeff]

At the game...we aren't good. Not enough pressing. Not enough creativity. Pelle isolated YET AGAIN. Poor game.

[Plastic]

Glad I've only just got home. Looking forward to a Pellé hat-trick in the second half.

[jamesfp1]

F*ck me were poor tonight

 

Never heard of them.

[mulletsaint]

The problem for me is that as well as bedding in tons of new players we are also playing a new style and new formation. My biggest worry when we employed Koeman was if the continuity would be good enough. Wonder if Tuchel would have been more seamless. Hopefully Koeman can get them playing as a team soon. There were good signs at Liverpool, god knows where they are now.

[Killers Knee]

Being outplayed and out passed by the Championship team at the mo.

 

a championship team with 2 first team players

[K,Billy's supersound]

Well the first half has been total sh*t are Davis and JWP actually playing?

[Jonnyboy]

Does Osvaldo have an emergency recall?

 

Lol, can you imagine the look on his face when he told he's coming back?

[Batman]

been a long time since I have seen a style of play at saints where the CB is the main creator.....HOOOOOOOOOOOOF

 

not so happy if this is RK style

[Unbelievable Jeff]

By the way, why our fans get on our players back so quickly is disgraceful.

[RedAndWhite91]

I'm in danger of falling asleep.

[ART]

Louis Van Moyes and Koeman haven't got a clue about playing in England. I think back to Poortviet's sides at at least they were a delight to watch. Time to be sounding out Nigel as I've a strong hunch Koeman out of his depth.

[Saints foreva]

Nowhere near good enough. We're going to be right in the thick of a relegation battle if our plan is to hoof it up to Pelle.

[BotleySaint]

2 games in a row now and you wonder where the next goal will come from. Yet against Liverpool we created a lot more...

[jasonb]

That woman from Microsoft better get to work and sort this hoofball team out.
