Edmonton Saint Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 All the feelgood factor from Wednesday evaporated within 35 minutes of todays match because of a joke line up. This could be 6 or 7 the way things are going. As soon as you see the likes of Martina, Isgrove and Gardos starting you know you are in trouble. Three days left in the transfer window and still no Fonte replacement, still no striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aintforever Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 What is the point in resting the goalkeeper? They just stand there all game, a keeper could play a game every day for a month and be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKD Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 If he'd picked the same team and we'd lost he'd have been slated anyway. Very little other options left to him. The fixtures list decongests pretty soon for us. We'll see less rotation then. How can you blame anyone but the manager for this so far Individually players haven't been good enough, but let's be serious, the majority belong in the championship.

doddisalegend Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 Jack Stephens are struggling badly. Wasting possession and side footed in defense. Its one thing to look good surrounded by quality senior players and a good goal keeper behind you. But with this defence around him he is going to be horribly exposed.

Be an adult and admit what we can all see - Reed needs to hurry up with getting a quality CB and CF in.

wessex saint Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 Don't worry. We've rested players so we're guaranteed 3 Pts midweek and a couple of million extra come the end of the season. Much more important than trying to win the fa cup. [emoji17] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Billy Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 Not seen such an obvious attempt to lose a game from Saints in a long time but not going to get too upset by it. Feel sorry for those who paid money to see Saints though, the team selection is clearly cheating paying punters. Exactly, if this was a boxing match there would be fekin uproar.

BARCELONASAINT Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 some of you really make me laugh.....I had no doubts that virtually the whole first team would be rested after Wednesdays brilliant result and effort by the players.

James Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 I still can't comprehend why other teams don't make so many changes as us. You can't change 4 of your back 5 against an Arsenal team containing Welbeck, AOC and Walcott and expect to get anything other than a hiding. Don't care that we're going out but I do care that we'd just regained some confidence and are now about to get a demoralising thumping. That's not brilliant management in my book.

St Marco Posted 28 January, 2017 Share Posted 28 January, 2017 I think the commentator made a very good point. We won't finish 5th let alone above. Arsenal are going for the title and have champions league. Their weakened selection is fair enough. The fa cup isn't a priority for them. Us on the other hand have a cup final. Which is fantastic. The problem is we could lose that. Why give up on your only route into Europe beyond that? Having two chances is better than one.
