Fulham 3-2 Saints - Post match

[saint lard]

So we’ve wasted a international break clinging onto Hughes....

 

Diabolical from top to bottom.

Ok,we worked hard,but that counts for nothing right now.

Joke.

 

Hoedt is a joke.

 

Hughes needs to go.

 

We need to spend big jan.

 

None of this will happen.

"You're getting sacked in the morning," chant the Southampton fans. Poor Mark Hughes.

 

 

 

 

Says it all.

 

Hughes must not survive this.

Awful manager.

Defence 3/10 Some these shouldn't be in the Prem.

Mid Field 4/10

Forwards 4/10

Hughes 2/10

[Isla Wight]

Time for another managerial change.

 

Please not BFS or Moyes

[davefoggy]

Hughes out. Now

[nta786]

hughes has to go... but our next two games in the league are united and spurs

 

could have been handy to get someone in monday and bed ideas in for leicester game

[Lighthouse]

Can't believe we lost that, after taking the lead. Not like Saints at all.

[CanadaSaint]

It won’t be the fashionable view but I don’t think there are grounds to fire Hughes today. We were much the better side – undone by needless individual errors. AFAIC we’ve played better this year than last, but missed chances and mistakes are killing us.

 

 

We are NOT among the three worst sides in the division.

[Dr. Kucho]

We had a rubbish season last year, but for some reason this one feels much more like the 2004/2005 season.

[badgerx16]

Is it bad that I'm not even bothered anymore ? Match day comes around, Saints lose, normality prevails.

we obviously are.

what a strange comment

[striker]

Our defence just stinks, you can't give up 3 goals and win.

 

We have no cohesive attack. All of our opportunities come because the ball bounces around and we get lucky. You can't score consistently this way, its 75% lucky. Watch the good teams, they build up and predictably create chances. All our mids are like holding mids (maybe Armstrong aside), and this leaves out forwards isolated (no matter which one). Austin, Gabbi, Ings, Long, etc., none of them look good because of this. They have to come back out of position just to get touches which defeats the whole purpose. And yes I know we looked more dangerous at the end of the match, but this was because Fulham parked the bus for the last 5 minutes.

 

We need a reral attacking mid or two, and a complete rehaul of the central D.

The ground are that we're not winning, that's good enough for me.

 

We will stay up with or without Hughes but I'd rather we finished higher than 17th.

[DG]

Terrible owner, terrible board, terrible manager, terrible squad.

 

Will be a long season.

[Pamplemousse]

Look at the table.

[saintant]

The club is a shambles and nothing has been done since the new owner came in. Kat promised she would never sell to anyone who could not take the club forward. I'm afraid she lied and has completely disrespected the dream and aspirations of her father after all the work and money he put into this club. Disgraceful and she should hang her head in shame.

[DT]

How can any manager play Hoedt and Austin ahead of Obafemi. And not have a good defensive midfielder like Romeu even on the bench? Sack him. And do it tonight.

[Baird of the land]

Somewhat relieved. Surely even the incompetents in charge will get rid of the bufoon now after we lost that one.

Just hope if they actually finally act it won't be to appoint fat sam.

1 win in 14 league games. 5 in 44.

 

Pretty sure we're quite ****e.

[Batman]

i think on the current path, Fulham will be above us within 2 weeks

But sadly after the next couple of games we will be in the bottom three. He needs to go I'm afraid and we need to see if anyone can save us because as it stands we are down.

[DT]

We are a shambles. Total embarrassment. If we were a horse we'd be put down

One thing I'll say about Fat Sam, he knows how to win matches. You may not like the style, team selection, etc., but he figures out a way to win

I've got news for you....

[Toomer]

Hughes out. Now

 

This, for those who think he kept us up he did not Swansea did because of their poor finish last season.

Keep taking the optimism pills. The defence, especially in the fullback areas, was amateur as best, and how many clear chances did either Gabi or Chas have ?

 

"but missed chances and mistakes are killing us"

Surely the coaches should have addressed this by now, it's the same every flipping week.

[tajjuk]

Sack him he's had long enough.

[OttawaSaint]

Terrible owner, terrible board, terrible manager, terrible squad.

 

Will be a long season.

 

Might be a short season. We'll be down by January.

[saintant]

Agree with the comment that Hughes did not keep us up - we stayed up due to Swansea having a shocking end to the season. I said it at the time.

[Pamplemousse]

i think on the current path, Fulham will be above us within 2 weeks

 

But at the moment, they're still below us, as are two other teams. Therefore, he is correct.

[Disco Stu]

No lessons were learnt from last season despite what Ralph keeps telling us. The fact he's stated they'll be no investment and they have full confidence in Hughes says it all. They're clueless and the lack of football experience at board level worries me for the long-term stability of our club.

[IOWSaintDaz]

The noise must be deafening now Mark, a total shambles..........

All down to fitness. We don't have that and it's inexcusable.

[kyle04]

It's just possible we could go down with less than 20 points, at the moment I can't see any other outcome....?

[Saint Albert]

The individuals that Hughes keeps persisting with' date=' ie. Hoedt and Cedric[/quote']

 

We let Cedric’s backup (Pied) go. There is no specialist replacement for him, except I suppose for Valery in the U23s.

 

It’s a bit of a mess unfortunately.

[Pamplemousse]

I don't like this rewriting of history, we got the wins we needed to stay up. Had we lost every single game, we'd have been relegated. So yes, Hughes did keep us up, whether you like it or not.

[S-Clarke]

I think we’re probably as bad as Cardiff and Huddersfield. Rest are miles better than us. Just get the relegation over with so we can do away with one of the most untalented, unlikeable and egotistic squads I’ve ever had the displeasure

of seeing.

[saintant]

How do you think we will amass 20 points?

[Supersubpuckett]

hughes needs to go - he can't get the best out of the squad and they have no belief. It's been the same since puel - he started it and it continues to rot away. We do have good players, much better than 17th and on paper should be above bournemouth but it's up to the manager to motivate them and make then believe again. hughes clearly can't do that.

[Wes Tender]

Nothing wrong with Cedric's performance today

[OttawaSaint]

Yep, finished the season with 5 straight defeats and managed just 3 points in final 9 games. They fell off a cliff.

Yes, you have summed it up perfectly. We got a lifeline at the end of last season but our complacency, which I identified 4 years ago, knows no bounds and once again we failed to strengthen the weak points that had been identified.

0 wins in 9 its not just today Canada. Tactically naive cant coach constantly picking wrong player's.

Not just his fault as Kruegar Wilson Reed are all as guilty still Kat has her 200m she is ok.

This kind of denial of the facts & dithering nearly got us relegated we were very very lucky to stay up & if we are honest didn't deserve to stay up, we wont be so lucky this time!

[beatlesaint]

We can do it if we can include all the players driving offences....

Couldnt agree more ... would far rather see a team with the likes of Gallagher, Obafemi, Hojberg, Armstrong, Sims, Redmond, Valery, Slattery etc than this carp .. at least i could support that.... get the likes of Cedric, Hoedt, Bertrand, Austin, Elonoyussi etc well out of the club
