St Chalet Posted 10 March, 2018 Author Posted 10 March, 2018 To be fair, Pellegrino’s ****e tactics didn’t have time to unravel. It’s still early and they are in this league position for a reason (as are we)
Crab Lungs Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 The most annoying all isn't the gormless w4nker of a manager or the absolute sh1tc()nts on the board, oh no... the worst and most annoying thing of all is that this whole cock-up of a season has been totally avoidable.
doddisalegend Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 I think you’ll find that Hojbjerg is playing ! And given the ball away three times.
nta786 Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Absolutely diabolical that we are actually going down.
Batman Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Bollix our CBs aren't good enough our strikers couldn't score in a brothel. We finished 8th last season.

Have to agree, this is a self-inflicted injury.
5string Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Ok, Saints, this is where you hit back right away... right away... aaaaannnd.... Any time now.
kwsaint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Got a few looks from people in the library when I looked at the score at declared "for ****s sake".
CB Fry Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 The most annoying all isn't the gormless w4nker of a manager or the absolute sh1tc()nts on the board, oh no... the worst and most annoying thing of all is that this whole cock-up of a season has been totally avoidable.This.
Ashby Saint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 "Southampton seem to have seen a lot of the ball without troubling Newcastle," so says BBC commentator. This IS the Southampton Way.
doddisalegend Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 We finished 8th last season. So you are saying Puel is a good coach and 8th is good now...interesting...
striker Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 2 out of 3. Oops, meant Boufal. Mis-spoke/typed. Say what you will, but losing VVD and Fontes, and replacing them with Hoedt and Stephens, is a big drop.
austsaint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Well at least we have no option but to go attacking now But Sims played an outstanding attacking game last week - dropped for the plodding Ward-Prowse. Tadic awful last week - keeps his place!!!!
OttawaSaint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 This is going to be 4 or 5 nothing. We don’t look like we are at the races at all. Slow, misplaced passes, no physicallity.

Pamplemousse Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 The one positive is that West Brom scored against us early on and we ended up winning. Just got to hope Newcastle go defensive and let us attack.
vectraman Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Our defence looks weak. Cedric was cr4p last week, and continues his form. Despite what others may think, Stephens and Hoedt are not good enough to start together. Newcastle looking to get between them - Benitez has done his homework on our defence. Unfortunately.

Ashby Saint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 But Sims played an outstanding attacking game last week - dropped for the plodding Ward-Prowse. Tadic awful last week - keeps his place!!!! Should have been JWP for Tadic, leaving Sims in the team. Tadic has been woeful and has a lousy attitude when things aren't going for him - practically uncoachable.
doddisalegend Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 We must have the worst defensive manager ever...an ultra defensive coach with a team that can't defend for **** how does that work?
St Chalet Posted 10 March, 2018 Author Posted 10 March, 2018 We are so ‘green’. If JWP rolls around Kennedy gets booked there.
Chez Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 This is going to be 4 or 5 nothing. We don’t look like we are at the races at all. Slow, misplaced passes, no physicallity. nah, we will come back and win.
Pamplemousse Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Our weak CBs getting bullied by Dwight Gayle of all people. FFS. This is Les Reed’s legacy.
Saints foreva Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Lol Stephens getting bullied in the air by Gayle He's a lower half Championship defender. It's laughable how massively overrated he is on this forum.
skintsaint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Is Cedric really a footballer? An international honours winning one. The team is so lacking in confident and attacking content it is scary.
shurlock Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Hojbjerg wanting an age on the ball like season.
St Chalet Posted 10 March, 2018 Author Posted 10 March, 2018 Hojbjerg wanting an age on the ball like season. That’s what happens when your clueless manager drops your form players.
shurlock Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 He's a lower half Championship defender. It's laughable how massively overrated he is on this forum. The English Beckenbauer.
Saint Benali Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 We must have the worst defensive manager ever...an ultra defensive coach with a team that can't defend for **** how does that work? It's strange isn't it. Has to be the most gutless, spineless and clueless manager we ever had. Good job Les.....
Dalek2003 Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Lose this and I think we will go down, even 17th will look out of reach.
5string Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Hojbjerg wanting an age on the ball like season. He was playing great, on a good consistent run, then was inexplicably dropped. I wouldn't be surprised if his confidence has taken a hit being out of the team.
Dusic Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 If Newcastle, Hudds and West Ham all win today which is very possible then we are screwed. Really we deserve to go down, easily one of the three worst teams this season.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 One striker getting no service, tactically clueless
mrfahaji Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 We must have the worst defensive manager ever...an ultra defensive coach with a team that can't defend for **** how does that work? That's the thing, he's not a defensive manager, he's a cautious manager. A defensive manager makes a team difficult to beat and sets up tactics to be effective from counter attacks, set pieces, etc. Mourinho is a defensive manager, Puel is a defensive manager, Pulis is a defensive manager. Pellegrino doesn't set us up like that. He just worries about everything and tries to cover all the bases. And the team is an embodiment of him. They play scared and they play without purpose.
OttawaSaint Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 If Newcastle, Hudds and West Ham all win today which is very possible then we are screwed. Really we deserve to go down, easily one of the three worst teams this season. Swansea down to 10 men vs Huddy.
adrian lord Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 We are throwing away almost everything we built since administration. Madness.

Really we deserve to go down, easily one of the three worst teams this season. Gaps are starting to appear in the table I accepted relegated around Xmas. It was obvious to any moron that we were screwed with this set up. Didn't believe the hype at all about Walcott, promes or anyone Carrillo is a terrible signing
Delmary Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Too slow going forward and not taking any risks with forward passes.
Crab Lungs Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 f()ck me this is horrendous. If by chance, our lone striker holds the ball up and lays it off, we get into the final third then pass, slowly, sideways, then backwards, allowing the opposition to get back into position to defend. Leave this club you f()cking c()nt

Yep, this is a good comment. No risk, no reward.
Useful Idiot Posted 10 March, 2018 Posted 10 March, 2018 Weak cowardly players playing like weak cowards. Unsurprising.
