Saint Fan CaM Posted 4 November, 2018 Share Posted 4 November, 2018 Players lazy?!? Rubbish! There are 5-6 players that just do not have Prem quality - it's not them being lazy - they're just not good enough. Hughes can't do much more - he picks from a squad that has been drained of quality and it's not just quality on match day - it's the quality in training listening and retaining the knowledge that the coaching team are trying to get across. What has Redmond contributed? What has Long contributed? What has JWP contributed? Ings is not exactly top quality, but at least he's got a footballing brain and knows how get into scoring positions. I didn't expect us to beat City - I even expected a thrashing - so it's not about this game. It's about the last THREE seasons of decline where we've sacked two managers and the recruitment of players has been shambolic. The blame should lie entirely at the feet of the Board. I would emphasise Les Reed, but I'm not sure he's still holding the reigns now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Boy Saint Posted 4 November, 2018 Share Posted 4 November, 2018 My day has been cheered up by the advert on NBC Girl sat in the passenger seat of a car with a touch of HayFever - sneezes and blows the whipped cream topping off the top of her coffee - very funny.

Lose all you want to City, but you only have to look at the decline in performance from Ings to see how horrendous our training is. His own dad is quoted as saying it's "like a holiday camp compared to Liverpool". Hughes needs to go, Reed, Kruegar and ****ing Gao aren't going anywhere so we'd might aswell forget about that.

saints-cris Posted 4 November, 2018 Share Posted 4 November, 2018 People will say it’s not games like this that’ll define our season. Well, I’d argue that home games against the likes of Brighton, Burnley, Leicester and Newcastle probably will, and we haven’t won any of those either. We are a shambles.

Pamplemousse Posted 4 November, 2018 Share Posted 4 November, 2018 I wouldn't trust your judgement on who should be Manager, you've been one of Hughes's biggest defenders when it's been clear for a long time that he is a ****ing awful manager. Incorrect. I just don't think he's the main problem and am able to take a more balanced and reasoned outlook on the situation, you should try it.

kyle04 Posted 4 November, 2018 Share Posted 4 November, 2018 Makes you wonder what our players do all week, certainly not practicing football thats for f***ing sure... Get off the golf course and your PS4's and do your vastly overpaid job. The travelling fans probably shelled out a nearly weeks wages , factoring on the ale and pies, to watch this. Hughes will get away with this because it's Citeh and Cedric might have been fouled for the 4th. MC will coast the 2nd half , Ederson will do a crossword or two, JWP will get sent off after 70 mins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
