saintant Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 I think he's bonded with Janny B. Probably sees him as a kindred spirit as both know most of the fans don't want them here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rarely ends well. Thing is Lyanco isn't a particularly aggressive player, he's just inconsistent and shite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 Just when you thought Jones had shown himself to be the biggest fraud, he reaches new levels of clownship. Sweet Jesus if Southampton University did Masters Degrees in clownship he’d come out with a damned distinction. I’m starting to think he’s either deliberately winding us up or he’s somehow being blackmailed by the Pompey faithful to do his utmost fucking worst and get us relegated. But I bet he feels smug and righteous as he’s got a couple of lackies in the dressing room on his side telling him what a wonderful gaffer he is. #donewithjones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodymatt Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 I’m trying to give the guy a chance but every game is huge atm! We can’t have 2 of our best 3 CBs playing B Team games for minutes. How can you pick ‘Janny B’ and Lyanco over a fit, rested and available DCC. I can understand building ABK up as he’s had a couple of injuries now and needs rhythm. Orsic has been in the building long enough now that he should be ready, Kamaldeen Sulemana is very likely not going to be involved so how can you play Orsic a day before a big game. 5 at the back, please stop. We look so bad in that shape and the players even revolt against it. We need to win games and that’s not the solution. Formations can absolutely win games, tactics is one of the main ways Jones should be contributing to our performances and earning his money. I don’t think I’ll ever like this guy (not that it’s a requirement for him to do well). He’s had better backing than any Saints manager in history, no excuses. Please prove me wrong and be a success, our PL status relies heavily on it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex Lion Tamer Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 The line up will be interesting for this one. I'm suspecting that the line-up for Newcastle was more of a b-team than people are realising.

One saving grace tomorrow is the teams above us have very tough games. It’s a chance for us to close the gap but hey jones the manager is going to royally fuck it up. We have wolves next and that will be a true 6 pointer - lose tomorrow and against wolves and it becomes nigh on impossible to avoid relegation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were patient as fans and the club were patient too, it had run its course no matter how much I liked him or how good a calibre of manager he was. For me the calibre of Ralph’s replacement remains the issue. Still do feel sad about Ralph as he was the most likeable manager we’ve had in a very long time. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Ralph Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 The only upside to DCC playing today is that it reduces the chances of starting with 3 at the back. We can but hope. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintJakko Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 I try, I try my absolute hardest to support Jones, but Jesus Christ. I just cannot. Not even being a jump on the negative wave brigade. But when a manager does so much wrong, says so much shit, how can you even be positive that we will do ANYTHING different tomorrow. THEN PLAYS 4 senior players in a youth game, not only meaning they will be ruled out tomorrow due to fitness, but also gives away half your formation for tomorrows game!!! He’s a moron. Simply put.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarvSFC Posted 3 February, 2023 Share Posted 3 February, 2023 Can't see why DCC has been dropped to the B team. DCC has been our best centre-back in recent months, since Jones claimed we needed to be more solid and yes he did have a poor night in the first leg against Newcastle when he got turned by a £60m forward in Isaak, but he did also need to make the professional foul that earned him a red as him and Lyanco were left exposed and facing a 2 vs 2 before Saint-Maximin had done him. Therefore, he is being treated pretty harshly for something Bednarek and Lyanco have done for us on the regular over the years. Lyanco picking up a yellow for doing some weird resuscitating move on Guimares in the first leg was far more needless and unprofessional. Seems like DCC is now getting the Perraud treatment, who showed the error Jones was making last weekend. If we lose tomorrow, all the questions at the fans forum have to be for Jones as I can't work out the thinking to some things. But, then Jones has gone hiding when Hasenhuttl was at each forum and stood up to the criticism. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
