stknowle Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 *Incompetent is OTT but whatever, I'm sure all you long suffering Saints fans get the idea - David Prutton had an outstanding game against Liverpool the season we went down.
percy windham Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Jason Euell has a great game away at Ipswich once - year we went down? Possibly the year before?
Batman Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Rory delap, against spurs Can't remember if he played well but that was a goal of a lifetime.
HarvSFC Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Shane Long in the 6-1 win against Villa. Set up two of Mane's goals, scored two, including the best goal of the day. He'll never hit a better ball.
Colinjb Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Alan Bennett away at Coventry during his time with us, looked absolutely rock solid in that game.
norwaysaint Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Leandre Griffit looked as if he was going to be the next big thing during his first couple of games. Then it became clear he just wasn't tough enough and he faded away to never really make any impact for us or anyone else.
Jimmy_D Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Steve de Ridder looked pretty good on his full debut, got the fans behind him, but then never really lived up to that start.

Then it became clear he just wasn't tough enough and he faded away to never really make any impact for us or anyone else. Against Blackburn? I fell asleep in that game in the Kingsland / Northam corner. Genuinely.
Lighthouse Posted 30 April, 2020 Posted 30 April, 2020 Agree with a lot of the nominees so far. Slightly left field, I'll go with Jakobsson in the 3-2 home defeat to Villa. Simply because we were 2-0 up when he went off injured and completely collapsed thereafter.
Dark Munster Posted 1 May, 2020 Posted 1 May, 2020 Steve de Ridder looked pretty good on his full debut, got the fans behind him, but then never really lived up to that start. I don't think anyone can beat his Youtube performance.
CylonKing Posted 1 May, 2020 Posted 1 May, 2020 Jordy Clasie against West Brom in 2017. Scored a cracking winner, best game for Saints? Re-watching the highlights and it looks like Forster had a stunning game as well.
ItchenRob Posted 1 May, 2020 Posted 1 May, 2020 Oscar Gobern at Preston immediately springs to mind for me.
Badger Posted 1 May, 2020 Posted 1 May, 2020 Rory delap, against spurs Can't remember if he played well but that was a goal of a lifetime. I thought Delap gave some impressive performances when he first joined, certainly surpassed my expectations even though he cost a then astronomical £4m. He simply didn't recover from two broken legs in quick succession, and seemed to go downhill after in his time with us.

Piran Posted 2 May, 2020 Posted 2 May, 2020 Leandre Griffit looked as if he was going to be the next big thing during his first couple of games. Then it became clear he just wasn't tough enough and he faded away to never really make any impact for us or anyone else. I too thought he was the next big thing. Can't remember the opposition, but he looked so calm on the ball, and used it well. I remember saying to my companion that day "He looks really good">
Tommy Mulgrew Posted 2 May, 2020 Posted 2 May, 2020 Harrison Reed v Everton; he controlled the midfield but got few more chances to shine.
Colinjb Posted 2 May, 2020 Posted 2 May, 2020 (edited) I too thought he was the next big thing. Can't remember the opposition, but he looked so calm on the ball, and used it well. I remember saying to my companion that day "He looks really good"> The team we had then, Fitz Hall, Yoann Folly and Leandre Griffit as the future spine. Folly v Spurs in March 2004 is another shout for this thread. Folly is still only 34 years old. Edited 2 May, 2020 by Colinjb
NorthLondonSFC Posted 2 May, 2020 Posted 2 May, 2020 The season we went down from the Champ, Saints got a rare win away at a Reading who were unbeaten at home. Bradley Wright Phillips bossed the pitch and scored two good goals but then was useless forever after.
