SKD Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 How is this bloke still playing top level and international football? and earning a sh!t ton of money for it. Touch is awful, hold up play not much better and his finishing is pub Sunday football level. The only thing he offers is the being able to run in behind and stretch their defence, but if we want someone who’s only ability is to run fast we may as well sign Usain Bolt. Surely we have better in the football club than this clown. Time to give him and Austin a prolonged rest and give Gallagher and Obafemi a chance I think. It cant be any worse.
Cabbage_Face Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Worst striker in All the English pro leagues. If you like someone who runs, sign U.Bolt. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
RedWillie Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Absolute joke, unmarked on the penalty spot and still can't hit the target. Get rid.
Bad Wolf Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Absolute garbage. One of the worst players to ever grace St Mary's and that really is some achievement.
Pamplemousse Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Absolute garbage. One of the worst players to ever grace St Mary's and that really is some achievement. Behave. Ludicrous statement.
Cabbage_Face Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Absolute garbage. One of the worst players to ever grace St Mary's and that really is some achievement. 100 percent accurate. Honestly can’t name a worse player. Even Matt Paterson would be better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Bad Wolf Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Behave. Ludicrous statement. I mean it in context of playing levels and what's expected etc.
badgerx16 Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Behave. Ludicrous statement. No it isn't. Long is supposed to be a Premier League, and International, striker. The only measure that applies is his goal scoring record.
benjii Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 If we want someone fast we might as well sign Usain Bolt.
Manuel Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Got a shot on target last week (albeit at very at close range lol). I prefer him to Austin at the moment because Austin offers VERY little whereas Long creates problems with his pace and yes, I think his positioning is better too. Seem to be in the minority but think he deserves a run more than Austin.

Neither offer what we need to be honest. I thought Long was overpriced at £12m when he arrived., and that was as a squad player to provide extra an extra option. Fast forward four years and he's an "essential" part of the squad. Another illustration of how we've regressed.
Convict Colony Posted 27 October, 2018 Posted 27 October, 2018 Surprised he's got kids as assumed he couldnt score anywhere

Seem to be in the minority but think he deserves a run more than Austin. Long does not create problems. His running allows defenders a bit less time on the ball than they would like, which leads to us winning a few more throw ins. When you are defending a striker based on the number of throw ins he wins you are scraping the varnish off the bottom of the barrel. Long and Austin are both awful for different reasons. That’s all there is to it.
rooney Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Time to give him and Austin a prolonged rest and give Gallagher and Obafemi a chance I think. It cant be any worse. We have tried everything else and it has not worked so why not?

We have tried everything else and it has not worked so why not? This. I'd have played these two on Tuesday, or at least one of them, though it does appear the game won't be happening.
darren2 Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Surprised he's got kids as assumed he couldnt score anywhere He was aiming for her mouth.
OttawaSaint Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 That chance couldn’t have been more “on a plate” for him. Glenn Murray finished from a much more difficult angle on Saturday. Long isn’t fit to clean Murray’s boots, neither is Austin, they need a prolonged walk of a short pier.
angelman Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Is Obafemi injured as he wasn't in squad for the U23 today vs Sunderland?
SaintMB Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Ready for Tuesday I expect. Though since that's in doubt, maybe they'll stick him in the squad for next weekend.
Saint Without a Halo Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Is Sam Gallaher injured? If not why has he not been getting any game time these days I noticed he has not been in any of the under 23’s squads recently

the saint in winchester Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Can I just say first that I suggested Usain Bolt some 10 days ago. He has pace and a decent hit on him. Anywayssss, I also would be adding Obafemi and Gallagher. If they can't get a game when we haven't scored for months, then when can they? I doubt we'll have a game this week now (rightly) so hopefully they get a chance soon, because sending out Dad's Army every Saturday is pointless (in all senses of that word).

Toussaint Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Surprised he's got kids as assumed he couldnt score anywhere Way too personal, and way out of order
Toussaint Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 He was aiming for her mouth. Any moderators paying attention?

hackedoff Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Time for someone to get a sack and a stick. We all know it's the kindest thing to do.
ally_uk Posted 28 October, 2018 Posted 28 October, 2018 Anyone with half a brain cell knows that the following: Austin, Long, Redmond, Davis, Ward Prowse, Either are overated, Have no end product no fitness or as a collective offer nothing. So the questions I ask? Why do we keep these dog average players? Long when was the last time he scored? Austin I have seen lads with better fitness playing 5 aside, again he offers nowt. Davis past it Redmond did nothing at Norwich and nothing so far at Saints. Ward Prowse no end product or consistency at this level.... Dress it up all you want we have a squad full of shyte......
