FFS JWP. Play that fucking ball forward. Great chance to break there. Fucking annoying

He can be so timid sometimes. Great to see Edozie on . Well done Ralph

[Saint NL]

Leicester 4-0 now

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Mo there? well done.

[Suhari]

Looking for the press now, it seems.

[OttawaSaint]

The Dozer is on!!

[Chez]

thank fuck for that.

Obviously the "new manager bounce"....

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Nice little bit opf pressing there.

[Saint_clark]

Alan Smith is so blatant in his giddy excitement when Arsenal are attacking. Fuck off.

[DT]

Walcott caught offside because the rules have changed since he last played

[Holmes_and_Watson]

>whew< just a little slow in picking up the runners there.

[Chez]

few leggy Saints players out there now. Diallo ad JWP not getting anywhere near opponents.

[Suhari]

We're going to score.

I can feel it in my farmers.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Oh, offside from Walcott. But the ball could have been hit by Perraud into the space. #pickysupporter

at least he has given us an out ball by running the channels.

Perraud having a great game

I feel it in my hoes. 

Goals are all around me. 

And so the scoreline grows.

 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Crumbs! We can't even get our injury break right. What's it doing on 82mins?! 🙂

Actually shocked by how much pace he seems to still have.

[AlexLaw76]

One thing I will say

Perraud has become a very decent Premier League LB

[Saint NL]

Nice to see the coaches in discussion

[Mr X]

Why would you bring Walcott on in a game like this? 

[OttawaSaint]

We've been pretty decent this half.

[Chez]

more coaching during a stoppage from Arteta. Another goal for us coming hopefully.

[niceandfriendly]

Got to say we've been so much better this 2nd half. We've seen some passion!

Perraud, Lyanco especially

Yeah, I thought it was odd when he assaulted their keeper, like they would have doen in the late 1800s. 🙂

[DT]

Shape much better now. Really like Perraud and Lyanco. They have guts, which is something in short supply. great touches from Edozie - even more baffling he hasn't been used more

Ludicrous decision, trying to walk the ball in...

[OttawaSaint]

Arrggjh Saints, could have got itf forward, slowed ot down, Diallo lost it. Come on!!!

[Saint NL]

Edozie is surprisingly strong for someone so slight looking

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Good from Edozie, Theo and Mo there. Just don;t forget the containment part and give away something silly.

Only if he'd brought him on earlier 😉

[East Kent Saint]

Even Vardy and Willian have scored today so get in Theo !

Come on Saints. Hold on. Loving Edozie's work so far

[Saint NL]

Harrison Reed with a nice assist for Fulham

[nta786]

Am I terrible person if I put money on Arsenal to score now? 5-1... 

[Suhari]

Edozie looks like he'll become a decent player.

Really like him. Deserves a start probably.

[Saint_clark]

Perraud wasn't even offside there!!!!! What happened to waiting for the attack to develop??????

[Sheaf Saint]

Whatever the result now, this second half performance has been excellent. More of the same please Saints.

[OttawaSaint]

Gukkk never offf! Twat!

[DT]

They didn't show too many replays of that offside. Highly suspicious. God Walcott is shit, and that dive was an absolute disgrace

[Dman]

He looked onside then, why didn’t he leave the flag down and wait to see the outcome of the attack, like they do every other time? 

[Chez]

I struggle to understand why Edozie does not get more minutes. 

[Lighthouse]

Ref spot on with dives in this game.

[niceandfriendly]

Carleta-Car has been alright too!

To stop the journos continually asking if Walcott will get game time.

[Suhari]

Five minutes extra!

[OttawaSaint]

What?!?! Arsenal diving all game, ref yellows Walcott for going down easy...
