I actually have 7/1 Wimbledon in accumulator

[Pamplemousse]

Yoshida should've scored there

[whelk]

SSN just showed our chance

[St Chalet]

Any streams?

[fanimal]

Why don't our players just THUMP the ball? Oh for SRL,,,,,

What he said!

[shurlock]

Stephens going walkabouts.

[Saint Garrett]

Thats because hes absolutely terrible.

[Batman]

Adam and Dave saying Davis is playing as the 2nd striker?

 

Jesus!

[adysaint]

There is 100% no streams. The only other match you can watch is Swansea v Palace.

[Millbrook Saint]

Seems odd why Hughes is playing Armstrong on left, when everyone knows he plays central. Gabbi up front on his own, when he's a supporting striker, not one to hold up the ball, and Stephen s on the pitch, and not only that he's playing as left back WTF, think he's lost the plot

Is he really? Who's playing right back? Targett?

[Saint Fan CaM]

According to Sky Sports live text we’ve had one shot on goal after 22 mins....stunning.

[Saint Garrett]

Stephens is RB, Targett LB.

 

Is a bit strange we haven't played Gabbi in behind someone else.

[Batman]

Davis supporting gabbi up top with Armstrong wide left

 

 

We are screwed this season.

No they didn't

 

They said he was playing high in the hole behind gab.

To be fair, it's the same for Brighton.

62% Saints possession though, apparently.

Just got to hope that big Sam gets his chance and he grabs it with both hands

Don't get me wrong, fair play to Hughes for keeping us up, but he's yet to prove to me that this season he has a plan. Tonight's formation baffles me and when things don't go our way his changes are just odd. On Saturday we were crying out for someone else in midfield in the second half, maybe a bit of guile (Armstrong) to produce a better quality final ball, but instead we got Austin up top.

Agree there.

We have got Hughes at the arse end of his time as a top manager.

Sorry meant right back, just as ****e there

[benjii]

We should have played a stronger team and gone for a comfortable win.

 

Management is easy, really. Just try to win, isn't it.

No it ain't easy, but for starters you play players in their correct role and position

My gripe is that we wasted an entire preseason on a formation that we only ended up using for 60 minutes. All a bit bizarre. It feels like when you are playing FM and can’t decide if your tactics/formation need changing or whether to ride out the storm for a bit.

[Shroppie]

Decent attempt by Gabbiadini

Tadic has missed a pen for Ajax in Champions League.

I agree. I wasn't trying to be funny. We should have played a string team and we could have had the game won in 60 mins.

Would have been more surprising if he'd scored.

Someone really needs to stop him from taking penalties

This is, presumably, our 2nd string team

The risk is doing that and then ballsing it up further demoralizing the first team that they can’t beat BHA reserves.

To be fair if we had their starting fixtures we would be bottom too.

Mess of a performance

Hughes has lost it

 

Armstrong wide left, Davis in the hole.

It's an odd line up, f'sure. Would have preferred to see Gallagher up top, Gabbi on the left in the 3, Armstrong central. Why we aren't playing square pegs in square holes, beats me.

Every team that glasgaeberg jizzes about does ****.

[Unbelievable Jeff]

Glad we're at least entertaining now...

[doddisalegend]

Listening to Solent sounds dire so far. Sounds like lots of square pegs in round holes. Despite five new signings and a different manager we really don't seem to be any better than last season.

 

Uninspiring in attack, light weight in midfield, and mistake ridden at the back.

[adysaint]

It'll be Wembley fever at QPR, winning 2-0 and look on course to play a 3rd game in the League Cup for the 1st time since 2009.

You've summarised my thoughts entirely. It might even get worse however infeasible that sounds. We seem to be going through the motions with no plan at all.

What’s Les going to do - pay compo to a third manager in a row?

He ****ing needs to, or he'll be getting his compo.

[Shroppie]

Could do with Davis off, JWP to DM, either Redmond or Gallagher on.

Hughes is just looking very strange indeed with his team selections....

What is it with football managers .....
