You must be joking.

[Sir Ralph]

I think we should face it. We aren’t good enough- second best today against relegation candidates 

[Tanlee]

Bednarek is shit but no way that goal is his fault, bazuna Is a liability

When do goals from open play happen? 

When teams play us.

[wadesmith]

Wheels have come off.

[Bad Wolf]

How can Bazunu possibly be blamed for that? He literally couldn't see the ball until it was about to trickle past him...

[thornhill_saints]

Keeper 🤣

[benjii]

It was terrible by both. HTH.

Next season. 

[Saint-Reece]

lol at us 

[Mr X]

Let's remember Appointing Jones was the real nail in our coffin though not that goal 

[GDog07]

Back to being typical Saints.

Turn up for the big games v Man City and Chelsea and don’t give any effort to the games which we should be taking points from.

Nice one lads!

[obelisk]

Oh I give up. I suppose it's almost a relief because I can't imagine how this team can survive now. Off to feed the cats.

Standing directly in front of his own keeper and letting the ball roll through him at a snail's pace? Yeah, not his fault at all.

[Crab Lungs]

Adam Armstrong is on. You all know what that means…

Bollocks - Willy would have been all over that 

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Geez. We struggle to beat any kind of press as well. All back to noone offering an outball anywhere in the team. Not a recent thing that.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

The damage Nathan Jones and Rasmus Ankerson have done to the club this season cannot be over stated.

[niceandfriendly]

That's surely the worst Bazunu error this season? God there's been so many, but that is absolutely unforgivable.

[Greedyfly]

Let's be honest, this is the fault of Selles as much as anyone else. Making the same fucking personnel errors as Jones, and in fact he's actually doing little different except maybe a slight formation change. It's awful sideways football, shit subs and little to no game plan.  We played a bereft Chelsea last week where you often get a reaction from players anyway (because it's big opposition) and then staked our prem survival on it. 

 

Tit.

Yep, too many winnable games wasted with that nutter in charge.

Because he is the fashionable fall guy - people are simply resigned to Bednarek's performances so take them as read..

[Crab Lungs]

Bamford, Adams and Mckennie are right bunch of nasty pricks aren’t they.

Bazunu. Properly shit... standing behind Bednarek. 

Is he meant to stand in front of him???  Bednerak at total fault for that goal!

Believe it when I see it. 

[the colonel]

but we haven't had one decide attack this game. Haven't looked like scoring all game

[saintant]

I'd have taken 3 points from Chelsea and Leeds away but seems this has been an awful performance.

Apart from the fact he let it roll across his feet without attempting to kick the fucking ball whilst totally blocking his keepers view. Definitely not his fault!!

[Saint Matty 76]

We've gifted 3 points to so many teams around us who haven't done a thing to deserve it, all season.

We're ending a game we're chasing with A. Armstrong, Walcott and Mara as our hopes of getting an equaliser, barely Championship quality.

[Holmes_and_Watson]

Example. Leeds have no problem at all starting form deep, switching it out to the flank and delivering a ball into the box. And again, can connect down the flank to deliver a ball in. We've managed it once I think, and that was Walcott. Every other team in the league seems to be better drilled. Hard to imagine after all the work they did under Ralph.

[OttawaSaint]

Doesn't matter who the manager is. We've assembled a bunch of gutless, slow, talentless bottlers. 

 

Big 6 pointer and not even tested the Leeds goalie. Bednarek stepping out of a block. Keeper again let's a ball go right through him. A midfield full if slow blinkered players who can't pass or make a decent run off the ball. Strikers who couldn't hit the fucking crowd behind the goal let alone the net. 

Then the media department rolling out someone to trot out cliches every week and smiling players in gloves and hats.

Everyone can fuck off apart from JWP and Lavia.

[The Juice]

Just watching Adam Armstrong and Theo Walcott chasing leeds defenders around. It's just desperate 

[Archers Road Stand]

And we had Martin Semmens PR spin saying Selles was world class. 😂

 

Fluke win vs Chelsea gets him a full time gig. We were shite vs Sheff Wednesday under him and we've been absolutely abysmal today. 

[Ed Rooney]

Has Selles been a massive part of the problem all along

If Forster had conceded that, the notion of it being totally the keeper's fault would be laughed off.

Based on todays shite we wouldn’t have won them anyway. The players are fucking shit 

[egg]

Just now, warsash saint said:

Nonsense. The CB has to be in position to defend what's in front of him. The keepers job is to position himself behind the CB. That goal was not on Bednarek. 

[Saint_clark]

Referee booking Lavia now for interrupting Bamfords time wasting.

[HKsaint]

Sellers out

[Sheaf Saint]

Honestly, I know it's the done thing to slate Bazunu on here but he had no chance with Janny fucking B standing right on front of him and making no effort whatsoever to step out and block the shot.

In other news, Danny Ings.

At least Everton are losing. 

this Selles bloke is useless 😀

it’s all over, folks. Time to rebuild for the championship.

That does not automatically make it his fault. If he can't see the ball coming, he can't reflex to save it.

Chances are he wouldn't have because Forster's positioning and close range reflexes was always excellent.
