It's There Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Manager gutted and showing it. Good effort from lads...something to build on
Disco Stu Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 /facepalm To be fair they're different people
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Because we’re not very good, mentally weak and didn’t put them to bed. Let’s not beat around the bush, we played okay, but Arsenal are a shambles... That’ll be us gone now I’m afraid... only saving grace is Watford up next who are equally as bad (just a shame it’s at home). You really are a quitter, just hope the players and coaches dont act like it
Micky Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 We will go down Sent from my Moto G (4) using TapatalkYep, soft underbelly, no character, no steel when needed. Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk
brmbrm Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Down we go. Exactly like 2005 with all these leads we’ve given up. agree. it was invitable. just wiating for the inevitable. **** **** ****
VectisSaint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Down we go. Exactly like 2005 with all these leads we’ve given up. Apart from Man City we haven't lost from a winning position yet this season in the PL, 2 games where we have drawn after being ahead, including today. I guess you are thinking of last season still.
Disco Stu Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 I worry that mentally broke the team. Gut punching moments almost every week.
Delmary Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 A brilliant performance all round. Something to build on. Bring on Watford.[emoji106]
Kingsland Codger Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Yes really... his second was criminal. Just knew we would concede! McCarthy made some gods saves but yet again has to be questioned for their winner! Winner??
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 It started at at least 80 minutes, if not earlier We should have scored twice during the time wasting then... really some people
Killers Knee Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 lessons learned: We defend better with 4 defenders instead of 5 Djenepo, Boufal, Redmond is the attacking midfield of choice
hasper57saint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Is anyone surprised? We are not Prem standard with thisbunch of mediocre non performers.
Batman Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Before the game, you would have chewed off the arm with the hand out offering a point. However, not winning that was criminal. You can’t miss chances like that and win games. Horrible We have 5 huge games coming up with 3 of them at home.
twopintsnilnil Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 We feel sick now, but that was the performance of the season. A lot of good individual games especially Ward-Prowse and Bednarek. Boufal and Djenepo were the right subs and did well, and then missed sitters. There's only so much RH can do about that. Also, Ings was way offside before the pen by recent VAR standards, so it'll be interesting to see what's said about that.
OttawaSaint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 We miseed the sort of chances you see the likes of Norwich, Newcastle, Brighton etc burying. Too many players timewasting and going to ground, so ****ing Saints to take what was a much improved performance and leave you feeling hollow an$ gutted at the end. It happens so often too, Arsenal had given up and we still managed to let them score at the death.
Plumstead_Saint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Best performance in a long time and Ralf got it right despite all the armchair managers on here slagging the line-up. Feel gutted that we threw away 2 points, especially after not taking 3 or 4 golden chances to put the game to bed. But let's be honest that was an entertaining game with chances galore. The speed of passing was a joy to watch at times.
St Marco Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Gutted we didn't win with all the chances we had. Especially the two from Djneppo But performance wise I think they all did well. There are a lot of positives to take from it. Sure as always there were the mistakes and awful defending but a point away to Arsenal is a good result for us. The next two games are must win games though.
Jonnyboy Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Apart from Man City we haven't lost from a winning position yet this season in the PL, 2 games where we have drawn after being ahead, including today. I guess you are thinking of last season still. Really?
Saints foreva Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 They basically tried to hand us 3 points but our band of ****ing ****e couldn't score the most simplest of chances. Awful result.
tobes8 Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 This has to be the mentally weak team I’ve ever witnessed. They’ll need an amazing sports psychologist to turn that into a positive.
Wes Tender Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 OK, so everybody is p*ssed off at them equalising so late in the match, but the fact is that we were the better team against Arsenal at home and with better finishing we could have had three or four additional goals. In terms of the play, we did well, closing them down, generally wanting it more, getting in their faces. There was much to be encouraged by. Their fans will be plenty disgusted at their performance and their forum will be saying that they didn't deserve to get anything from that match.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Hope all these fans who think its over dont come to sms next week, we dont want the negativity and the team certainly dont
Ohio Saint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Where did 7 minutes come from? 7 mins is the cure for VAR Its all about the big guys.
St Marco Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 To be fair they're different people Ah my bad haha. Schoolboy error.
Dark Munster Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Is anyone surprised? We are not Prem standard with thisbunch of mediocre non performers. Yes "non performers" who could've beaten Arsenal by 4 goals. Poor finishing yes, but "non performers" don't rip a big 6 team to shreds at their place.
Jonnyboy Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 We should have scored twice during the time wasting then... really some people We should have yes. What's your point?
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Yes "non performers" who could've beaten Arsenal by 4 goals. Poor finishing yes, but "non performers" don't rip a big 6 team to shreds at their place. This is spot on but wasted on here at moment
Fitzhugh Fella Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 A brilliant performance all round. Something to build on. Bring on Watford.[emoji106] Weren't the M City performances something to build on?
Jonnyboy Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Damn, even if we'd won that we'd still be bottom three. Dire.
SKD Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 You really are a quitter, just hope the players and coaches dont act like it I’m a realist buddy. Been watching us for too long to know that we’re doomed (obviously unless something out of the ordinary happens in January)... Can defend, can’t put teams to bed, give up when the going gets tough.... the players already act like it (as shown in the 9-0 defeat).
OttawaSaint Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Right near the end we got away on a 3 on 2, the Arsenal players behind actually gave up. Our glorious captain Hoj had the ball, had Redmond out wide in acres of space, chose to run and shoot wide. I knew immediately that we’d **** up and end 2-2. Our players are thick, too dumb to make simple high percentage plays. **** off!
Heisenberg Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 I'm as positive as anyone in here but "rip a big 6 team to shreds at their place" It was 2-2
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 We should have yes. What's your point? You know exactly what i mean and am not going to spell it out...

Jonnyboy Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 You know exactly what i mean and am not going to spell it out... Nope, have you been drinking?
qwertyell Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Best performance of the season by a mile. Not taking our big chances - they weren't half chances - or being ruthless enough in really promising counters (Prowse and Hojbjerg making terrible, selfish decisions) killed us. Should've been 3 or 4 up before the inevitable late equaliser. If we could play every week with that level of commitment and endeavour, we'd scramble to safety. But I suspect we won't - there was no pressure on this game; a shot to nothing. We'll be expected to win the next few, and totally **** the bed. Thought Bertrand had a great game. What a difference he makes when he decides to turn up. Sent from my F3311 using Tapatalk
Saints foreva Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Christ Arse are gash aren't they. And we couldn't beat them. What does that say about us?

Can defend, can’t put teams to bed, give up when the going gets tough.... the players already act like it (as shown in the 9-0 defeat). Me too but it is not over in november, would you like the players and coaches to come out and say it is and quit like you?
Turkish Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 You really are a quitter, just hope the players and coaches dont act like it They do.
redder freak Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Thankfully their expensive players missed a couple of open goals, otherwise Saints would have lost that one. Arsenal the better team with 60% of possession, but failed to use it effectively. Well played Saints, better than the Citeh games.
Dark Munster Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 I'm as positive as anyone in here but "rip a big 6 team to shreds at their place" It was 2-2 That obviously refers to performance not score. We missed at least 4 sitters.
Saint Fan CaM Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 Much better performance but Cedric really screwed up big time with Obifemi waiting in the box 1 yard out...it was a very very simple pass to make and he failed spectacularly. Redmond and Djenpo also had big chances and failed. Thought Ralph messed up bringing on Boufal when 1-2 up away from home...should have been Romeu surely? Ralph has a diliemna...either he plays a bias of attacking players and hopes we score more than the opposition or he plays more defensively and risks not scoring at all. It was better today, but conceding late will be the cause of relegation.
Mr X Posted 23 November, 2019 Posted 23 November, 2019 It was a spirited performance & much improved but all its proved is that we are going down, we simply can't keep a lead in any game wether it's arsenal or Watford, if you can't ever keep a lead when you are clearly on top of the game you are doomed!
