SKD Posted 28 December, 2017 Share Posted 28 December, 2017 If saints fan want to tip the 1 or 2 members of the hierarchy that are still in favour of Pellegrino staying, we need to be slightly less nice. The players and management at the moment know there is no real punishment for faliure at the moment. If, however, after the first goal for united against our shambles of a team the fans stop fruitlessly giving their vocal backing to a disinterested side and instead, on live TV loudly call for the managers head for the remaining 70 mins, we might even see MP sacked before the palace game. No place to hide on Live coverage! Just have to keep it clean so it wouldn't get muted.... Let me guess, Les (the man who appointed him) is one of these 2. Textbook.

Assume the "1 or 2" includes Gao, given his stance would trump all other opinions in the hierarchy...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkSFC Posted 28 December, 2017 Share Posted 28 December, 2017 if the way Pellegrino has come across in that press conference just now is typical of him day to day on the training field no wonder our players seem to have any inspiration or motivation to do well. This CLUB needs a new leader and the TEAM need a new leader both of whom have some damn energy, enthusiasm and positivity. A phrase I heard a while back "mood hoover" (someone who sucks all the energy out of the place) was applicable with Puel and it seems like MP is not able to put it back in!!! Arrogance and complacency is a toxic mix and this seems to be the club from top to bottom. For the 2nd time in a few days I am praying we get hammered by the opposition. Hopefully Lukaku will find his scoring boots and we lose by 7 or 8. Surely then MP wll go, and Gao will realise that Reed cant make a decent decision anymore. Otherwise, the nightmare scenario becomes more likely with every game....we go down.....the skatecvnts go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get this 'hold back our best players for the game after next' nonsense. One game at a time. Try to win the next game, then worry about the one after that.

Shroppie Posted 29 December, 2017 Share Posted 29 December, 2017 We’ve got to name our best team. Worry about Palace afterwards.And one bit of cheerful news that I'd missed is that Palace have a day less recovery time than us - only 54 hours, and after a tough game (Man C). If ever there will be a case for a high tempo game with as much pace and attacking intent as possible, it'll be the Palace game. As for United, park the bus and hope.

Forester Posted 29 December, 2017 Share Posted 29 December, 2017 As has been picked up on earlier, Palace match is a great opportunity as it is their third game in five days. Last year it was our misfortune to have the worst Xmas schedule, yet another thing that made it a weird season upon which to make any judgements. So would pick a team for this with an eye to the Palace game: 3-5-2 with Forster, Stephens, Hoedt, Yoshida, McQueen, Pied, Hojberg, Davis, JWP, Sims, Tadic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manuel Posted 29 December, 2017 Share Posted 29 December, 2017 If we played like we did against City and Arsenal we might get something, but we don't have the players available that we did then. Maybe Boufal might get one, otherwise I can see a clean sheet for them plus however many they head in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vectraman Posted 30 December, 2017 Share Posted 30 December, 2017 2-0 to them. We will park the bus, but not quite between the white lines, thus allowing a couple of close range defensive muck up type goals.

They ain't that good. We ain't that bad. 1)Possibly as long ago as the 1960's. 2)Admire your optimism, but don't necessarily share your summary of the situation. No, they're not that good, although we have it in ourselves to make them look worldbeaters; unfortunately we can just be bad in key areas- defence, in goal especially, and in front of their goal (take a bow Shane Long & Redmond).
