Delusional I'm afraid.

 

Suppose its also quality attacking that makes us concede so many?

 

Not delusional its a fact, the opposition trying to stop opposition scoring, its what all team try to do isnt it,

shame is we cant stop others scoring at moment....Confidence is smashed....

Sounds like the exact same performance saints have been putting out for the last couple of months. No doubt we'll see no real response as the team are mentally weak and lack any team spirit.

 

Only thing we can do is send Tadic and Juanmi on during second half.

I don't blame Koeman, it's obvious that signing players on the cheap hasn't worked and the board needs to get their árses in gear and splash the cash.

 

Blame for the state of this season isn't attributable to any individual, but I think it is fair to say that the players, Manager, and transfer committee have all made mistakes which have contributed to this mess. Several mistakes makes one big mistake.

Speaking of, i'd love to get Adkins back right now. His style of football would be amazing with our attacking players.

 

I suggested this and got laughed at. But his style of football was the most entertaining we've ever had in my lifetime. I'd have him back in a heartbeat.

Worse of all, i seem to have totally lost interest, just the same now every week. Koeman isnt going to turn this round, both he and the players look disinterested. Plus given his record on the how he has spent the clubs money i'd be reluctant to give him more as well

 

Its a matter of time before this ends one way - be better off doing it sooner rather than when we really are in the c**p

I was at Norwich and their defence was poor. It was us rather than them that was the issue.

 

You don't need to be so defensive when people criticise Saints. Its not because they don't support the club, its just because they are concerned.

 

Its worse to pretend its not down to us that we have won 1 in 9. It is.

Now take off Yoshida, put Tadic on. Lets go 4231- tadic on the left, mane in number 10 and davis as right mid.

Martina at right back, and fonte vvd at cb, targett at left back. Romey/clasie as defensive midd ofc

 

This.

 

Although will probably happen on 77 minutes when we are two down.

Koeman is far too 'clever' fog his own good!!!

Too much tinkering with formations, too much attention to what an average Palace or Norwich side might do to us. Koeman is not that good..... a poor attempt by him today again... Yes our players are not overly great but he doesn't help the situation at all... Five at the back ????? Why haven't we identified the reasons we beat Arsenal and repeated them, instead we always go try something else different ???

We reinvent the wheel every week... And lose every week that cannot be a shock to anyone except Koeman...

Same here about Adkins. Beautiful patterns of play. Given a half decent squad of attacking players and he'd produce a helluva an exciting team to watch. I remember everyone masturbating over the 0-0 v Everton in Poch's first game and I said on here I wasn't that impressed at all, seemed like we'd lost our fizz. Poch's style, obviously, wasn't as exciting in an attacking sense but more in a defensive way... But I missed the Adkins triangles!

Btw... The board should acknowledge they've recruited crap and properly back Koeman. If that doesn't work then go another route but he really wasn't backed properly in the summer.

This. Although he obviously wanted Clasie who just hasn't worked out.

 

Especially as a replacement for our most key player.

45 minutes to save our season

 

Absolutely. If we go out today then this could be the most boring season since that season we first went down to the Championship and finished 12th with no real threat of going up or down. That's unless we get dragged into a big relegation battle...
