Heisenberg Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Painful and depressing.... Absolutely horrendous We could and should be 2 or 3 down
CB Fry Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 We've got the best midfield options in the Premier League so we should be able to change things up at half time no problem.
captainchris Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Are we going to stand and watch them for another 50mins ?
Greenridge Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 ‘He used the wind to his advantage there’. No he didn’t it’s blowing in the opposite direction.
Saint-Beer Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 I would have Carrillo and boufal off at HT for sims and romeuBoufal??? Why not Tadic. Least Boufal looks dangerous. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Saint Pete Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Well if Hughes was in any doubt about the size of his his task, he will be sure now!
Saint Billy Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Everyone is so negative on here! Got to give Hughes a chance, never going to change over night. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk We are a premiership club ffs regardless of the manager, we are being torn to shreds by a league 1 outfit, what do you expect?.
doddisalegend Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 We've got the best midfield options in the Premier League so we should be able to change things up at half time no problem. Let down by the worst defence and attack in the PL...
Rory Peepa Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 So boring I fell asleep and dreaming Wigan we’re dominating us. Then I woke up and it was real. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
jawillwill Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Hopefully the wind will be in our favour 2nd half.
saint lard Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 We are so weak in every aspect of the game. From passing,tackling,finding space on the ball and off it. Slow in decision making.....truly atrocious. Embarrassing. What I’d give for a scrappy 1-0 to us now. On this display we deserve to lose this game....go out the cup ....and eventually go down.

Saint Benali Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 This is possibly the worst 45 mins we have had this season. The only positive is they are Wigan and have not scored. If it was a PL side we would be 3 or 4 down by now. I don't even see what our tactics are. Is it to give them the ball and when we get it pump it up to Carillio? Whatever they are its ****ing awful.
5string Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Hopefully the wind will be in our favour 2nd half. Watch for their long ball tactics for the 2nd 45.
verlaine1979 Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Never mind a first goal, I feel like I'm still waiting for Carrillo to win his first contested header.
doddisalegend Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 It feels like we are the L1 side putting in a backs to the wall performance to try nick a cheeky win against a big side.
miserableoldgit Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Are we going to stand and watch them for another 50mins ? Madame Tussauds School of Defending....
danjosaint Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Right Carrillo and tadic off for sims and long

simo Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Get Long on for that number 9 we have pretending to play !
BotleySaint Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Players look scared to get the ball. No-one wants to take responsibility. All leaving it to someone else to deal with. No communication. Really highlighting the issues... Hughes has a lot to do.
obelisk Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Saints defending worse than ever. Commentators are going to be in tears if Wigan don't win this. Getting to half time without conceding is a bonus. Now let's go on and win this.
stknowle Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 The good news is we look a lot better than we did under Mope. The bad news is we still look ****.

This. Players don't look up for it. Tadic looked ****ed walking off the pitch at half time. Pathetic 45 minutes

Manuel Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Not sure what our long balls forward towards Carrillo/Gabbi are achieving. Too easily defended.
Roger Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Keep hearing lemina is too good for us! Vic was another level.
adrian lord Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 If Hughes keeps us up he will get the freedom of the city and a knighthood at this rate

GarrettIvo Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Bad news for anyone who thought that half was bad. We have to play into the wind in the second half. I reckon we'll lose by at least two goals.
Crab Lungs Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Carrillo is like an on pitch version of Pellegrino. Get rid. Hoedt is a 16m Dutch Aaron Martin without basic footballing skills for a centre back. Get rid. Ross Wilson, take a bow.
Saint-Beer Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 This team needs major surgery.Disagree. They need confidence. We have some good players. A lot of damage done by MP. Let's get behind our team!! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
5string Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 I'd make the following changes (though I'm not the manager, so I'm willing to entertain alternatives): Carrillo off Tadic off Sims on Long on Gabby pushed up Keep it low, drive it hard forwards for Long to run onto. Watch out for their long balls with the wind.
adrian lord Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 It’s clear to me that Pellegrino didn’t bother to keep the players aerobically fit
stknowle Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Carrillo is like an on pitch version of Pellegrino. Get rid. Hoedt is a 16m Dutch Aaron Martin without basic footballing skills for a centre back. Ross Wilson, take a bow. He really is utter, utter crap isn't he.
washsaint Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 We should remember they beat City last round and are no mugs and conditions are bad. That being said we are utter s***e. Tadic a passenger, Carillo absolute garbage (summed up by his unmarked defensive header from the Boufal cross), Lemina non-existent, Stephens, Hoedt and Cedric look scared. Boufal looks dangerous the few times he has the ball, Hoj doing OK but, as others have said, the managers only tell half the story. We have a very, very poor squad and whatever happens at the end of a season a mass clear out is required. I cannot believe for the life of me we paid 19 million for Carillo....seriously 1.9 million and we would have been mugged! Hughes has an absolutely thankless task and a big, big job ahead of him
Baird of the land Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Awful from Saints. Constant horrible long ball fare with still no end product. Not sure i’d Pay 19p for Carrillo. Very sporting of him to give the ball back to their keeper when he dropped it! Get sims and long on.
Saints foreva Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 Carrillo is like an on pitch version of Pellegrino. Get rid. Hoedt is a 16m Dutch Aaron Martin without basic footballing skills for a centre back. Get rid. Ross Wilson, take a bow. Shame he didn't **** off to Rangers when he had the chance.
shurlock Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 The good news is we look a lot better than we did under Mope. The bad news is we still look ****. Nonsense.
austsaint Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 I would have Carrillo and boufal off at HT for sims and romeu Carillo and Tadic off - Sims and Romeu or Redmond on. Saints look unsettled and second best - Wigan waltzing through our midfield and Stephens and Hoedt look like they don't know each other. Tadic is such a disappointment - Gabbiadini making some good runs - Cedric's been poor
doddisalegend Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 The good news is we look a lot better than we did under Mope. The bad news is we still look ****. We really don't look any better but then Hughes was unlikely to make much difference after 2 days.
RedArmy Posted 18 March, 2018 Posted 18 March, 2018 When the least experienced player in your back 4 is continually having to tell the others to talk more, you know you've got problems.
