benjii Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Sadly, true. But Danso was showing promise a few weeks ago. I didn't even mention Carillo and Elyonnousi. I'm not writing Danso off but if he can't get in the team then what's the point? Like what is the point of Adams if Shane Long is preferred in a home match? ****ing bizarre. And, in general, what is the point of Ward Prowse and Hojbjerg?
saint1977 Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 On the plus side, given any kind of service ings looks dangerous. Everything else negative. Gunn atrocious Surely given our defensive issues we should be going back to basics. The second awful ball by Gunn, then bednarek cushioned header to romeu(too cute by half) given where we are. Others times we’ve got away with trying to be too cute. Annoyed me at end with 20 seconds of injury time left in the half we have a free kick and we muck about passing across our back line and are lucky to end up with a throw in Chelsea aren’t even having to do anything special to earn it. It’s been dreadful again. The team are trying to play like a PL side from the Poch and Koeman era but have to stick to the basics as they are mid table Championship at best. We don’t have a midfield so develop Adams so he can hold it up and bring Ings and Redmond. Not nice to watch but Burnley squad and Burnley budget means Burnley football until the main vestiges of that stupid old buffoon’s transfer dealings, and that of assistant who thankfully looks Rangers bound, are gone.
Roger Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 How Jwp gets away with a half like that and the way he’s played since April is beyond me.
Avenue_Saint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Danso, Boufal and McCarthy should be playing!
Batman Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Anyone be really that bothered if we went down? The club have almost been preparing for it. Just need to shift a few more permanently and we will be set for the championship
striker Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 No changes at half time. why change when things are going so well
DG Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Anyone be really that bothered if we went down? The club have almost been preparing for it. Just need to shift a few more permanently and we will be set for the championship With Gao it would be a disaster and probably administration.
Useful Idiot Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Anyone be really that bothered if we went down? The club have almost been preparing for it. Just need to shift a few more permanently and we will be set for the championship We'll probably just have to loan out our entire squad on half wages then get another team in on the cheap- I doubt anyone would pay anything for any of the w*nkers we have in the team.
adrian lord Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Gonna be a long season Endless home games played in a morgue like atmosphere
Saints foreva Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Anyone be really that bothered if we went down? The club have almost been preparing for it. Just need to shift a few more permanently and we will be set for the championship The problem is the ownership if we go down. We will be financially ****ed.
Mr X Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Can't see us beating Watford let alone anyone else, whare are the points going to come from? Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk
Batman Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 With Gao it would be a disaster and probably administration. Kat sold us a winner then
Jonnyboy Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Gunn save alert! Good save. Exposed by Valery again.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 We’re a top half team, top half of Championship where you get plenty time to close down or decide on a pass or shot. Our lot are just way too slow mentally you don’t have time to think at this level. Redmond’s internal monologue must be, “hmm, bottom corner is open, might shoot, oh nice run Ingsy could pass it to him, **** why that guy in front of me now, I’m trying to think here!”.

Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk We never beat them anyway, we usually give them a last second equalizer or the ref lets them punch the ball in or whatever.
Sheaf Saint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 What's happened to the Nathan Redmond who won POTS a few months ago? He's regressed badly this season. In fact, all the players who improved after Ralph came in seem to have gone backwards this season. Particularly JWP.
Saints foreva Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Redmond looking like his pre-Ralph days this season.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Ffs Redmond It wasn’t like he just overhit it, he blasted that pass.
benjii Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 What's happened to the Nathan Redmond who won POTS a few months ago? He's regressed badly this season. In fact, all the players who improved after Ralph came in seem to have gone backwards this season. Particularly JWP. He was never anything more than a so-so PL player on a good run of form. It's only because everyone else was so awful that he looked decent. He was a good signing for ten million or whatever but when he becomes your best player, you're screwed.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Here comes our free kick specialist. 99/100 lifetime...
Roger Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 JWP proves he’s human after all. The bloke is a complete fraud.
OldNick Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Our midfield is so dire. Plodding at best. Do we have anyone else? JWP and Hoj need dropping.
Saint_Tony Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Good chance we’ll be going down this season, we are a very poor team.Even at this early stage we look doomed. To be in control for the first 15 mins then concede such a soft goal is unacceptable. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
Sheaf Saint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 I would love to know what Long has done in training to convince Ralph he was worthy of a start today. Baffling really.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 This just isn’t fun. I’m finding football in general much harder to watch. Saints have been so poor in recent years it’s jus so demoralizing. The Man U vs Arsenal game on Monday was atrocious. Then at half time they showed clips of Keane, Viera, Scholes, Cantona, Bergkamp, Henry. The football was so much better.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 I would love to know what Long has done in training to convince Ralph he was worthy of a start today. Baffling really. He managed 2 consecutive accurate passes in training.
Baird of the land Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Is Ralph allergic to subs or just happy to be settling for a loss
BotleySaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 60 minutes and no changes. [emoji38]What can we actually do to change it though? No better on the bench.
SNSUN Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Danso, Boufal and McCarthy should be playing! I'd even give Armstrong a go at present. Something needs to change, I just don't think we have the on-pitch personnel.
St Marco Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Is Ralph allergic to subs or just happy to be settling for a loss That is one of his **** traits for sure.
danjosaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 So dire, no passion, movement, desire, complete lack of whats required at premier league level, f****** horrendous
obelisk Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 As an attacking force Saints continue to fire blanks.
Sheaf Saint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 What can we actually do to change it though? No better on the bench. He's got to roll the dice and try something though. We clearly won't get back in this game with things as they are.
Baird of the land Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 Long’s Gone from barely playing a minute to being unsubbable.

I enjoy watching Man City and Barcelona (for Messi) but a lot of it is quite tedious. The Championship is a more entertaining watch than the Premier League, in general. I couldn't give a **** if we get relegated under Gao. Pointless owner and pointless club at the moment.
OttawaSaint Posted 6 October, 2019 Posted 6 October, 2019 This half has been utterly embarrassing. Chelsea have barely got out of first gear.
