Saints 0-1 Wolves - Match Thread

[Saint_clark]

He's literally just sat on the floor having a chat with the physios ffs. Zero treatment being applied. Get a grip ref.

[badgerx16]

I remember when, as a lad, buses were run by the Council, you could watch the Great Liners dock, and Southampton won a football match after conceding the first goal.

Worse record in 2021 of any team apparently

Calendar year records don't count...

[OttawaSaint]

Do we ever win a header from a corner?

[DT]

Djenepo is at least giving it a go. The rest are so slow and ponderous. It's awful and down to the manager. Need to end it now

[skintsaint]

think we can play for another hour. We aint scoring.

[obelisk]

At this rate I'd expect around 10 minutes of added time. Not that it'll do any good mind.

[Baird of the land]

Pitiful by Saints. Every player wanting to shirk responsibility

[Maya's Dad]

deab ball specialist jwp. when was the last time we scored or even got a head on a jwp corner fuck me

[Mr X]

Disapointing we should be turning up against teams like wolves and getting three points we have been clueless today 

[obelisk]

Totally clueless in attack. This is what I worried about at 2pm.

[skintsaint]

lol ...nice goal kick

[trousers]

Why are other teams seemingly much better at winding down the clock than we ever are? Time wasting master class by Wolves (not that any additional time would make any difference given our lack of cutting edge!)

The best set piece in the world won't change how tall or good in the air the players in the middle are.

[Jonnyboy]

What in Christ was that from Djenepo?

No. Interesting the whole thing about corners. In general, corners just dont seem to be the scoring opportunities that they were 20-30 years ago. Then, a corner would lift the crowd and come on you reds! would ring out. Now, a corner is pretty much a sign that an attack has broken up and it's a dead end, dead ball situation.

A lucky equaliser would only seal the obvious cracks

[Edmonton Saint]

Should have sold JWP to villa when we had the chance, the way he has been this season, they won’t be back in for him

[Dr Who?]

This has died a death this one! 

[IronCitySaint]

Without a Premier League quality attacking player in the whole squad this is about as good as it gets. There will be many more days like this during the season, just like there were many last. Nothing has changed and nothing will change.

[Saint_clark]

Another one decides to sit down for a rest. He was sprinting no problem before that.

 

[DT]

How bad does it have to get before the people who run this club actually think about changing the manager for someone who knows a decent player when he sees one?

Time-wasting c*nts.

[OttawaSaint]

Look at that Djenepo trying to cross one in and the forwards are so static not on their toes at all looking to make a darting run. So easy to defend against.

[skintsaint]

another one just sat down now

He seems to be trotting around to avoid an injury for the January sales to me

Hootle tootle out.

JWP totally wasted that free kick.

Off to Leicester at this rate...!

[DT]

another abysmal floaty free kick from the (today) atrocious Ward Prowse

[skintsaint]

what a shite freekick at this stage of the game

[Maya's Dad]

not scoring if we play 30 more

[Teddeer]

JWP without class deliveries is a waste of a shirt.

[Saints foreva]

JWP has been shocking this season. 

[Dr Who?]

Draw at Man City which we should have won and then lose at home to Wolves! 

[DT]

Time to go, Ralph

[skintsaint]

Wolves havent really done much yet take the points.

He's being paid 100k a week to take corners and make safe passes.

[Mr X]

We are going to be in real trouble after the Chelsea game 

[Ohio Saint]

Ralph has given up

[hypochondriac]

I think fundamentally we could be playing better than we are. In previous years we have been really limited by the players we have available but the big issue here is that Ralph does not make changes and makes the same mistakes over and over again. I'd give him a bit longer but if this continues we should start thinking about looking elsewhere. 

[Dimplex]

Complete lack of urgency - so frustrating 

[skintsaint]

another long ball and we cant defend. sunday league stuff.

[trousers]

Two mediocre teams separated by a single moment of genius (or crap defending, depending on your point of view). We'll probably play much better Vs Chelsea knowing us. We stumble on...

[OttawaSaint]

Yawn. It’s fucking boring watching this plodding clueless team. 

[Dorchester Saint]

So fucking predictable. 

[badgerx16]

How many saves did their 'keeper make ?
