They really are terrible in the Championship 

[goodymatt]

Ref giving any tackle we make as a foul, meanwhile they can wrestle KWP down and it’s play on. 

[Saint_clark]

Alcaraz not doing himself any favours with Martin with passing like that.

Millwall really taking their time on every set peice

And making a mess of every one.

There's a very clear gulf in quality between these two teams. Would be very disappointing if we don't take 3 points from this.

Millwall out passing us at the moment

Only thanks to a foul on Baz.

Didn't look like a foul to me but keepers are over protected these days 

[Saint NL]

Nothing coming off for Alcarez at the moment.

[Wade Garrett]

Sulemana not having his best game.

[BotleySaint]

I think we've got too much time on the ball. They players can't decide what to do with it. 

[trousers]

We're so much more composed on the ball than them but our Achilles heel of not being clinical in the final 3rd is in danger of costing us again 

[Saint NL]

Decent strike by Charley

[OttawaSaint]

We refuse to get in early crosses or shoot. Too much fannying around.

[adrian lord]

Shot!

Maybe they should try putting it in the opponent's goal 😂

[Bad Wolf]

Anyone know what happened to that decent Polish keeper who had that one bad game that one time and then got branded with it for the rest of his Saints career?

I thought he bottled out of a play off game.

Now playing for a bang average 2nd tier team apparently...

Yeah, our first choice keeper came back into the team and he never got another chance before leaving for first choice football. Not really much more to read into it than that. 

[Bad Wolf]

Anyone else got Gillette on? I honestly think Merson is drunk. Not even joking 😥

[trousers]

This game has got 0-0 written all over it...

[Osvaldorama]

Taylor Harwood bellis is fucking quality 
 

 

[Saint_clark]

Smallbone reminding me a lot of Dean Hammond in his style of play this game. 

[OttawaSaint]

Jeremy Doku just did what Sule should be doing, beat his man, looked up, easy pass, goal. Don't need to slow it down or beat player 4 times, beat him, have a look, execute.

He's been superb today (hopefully not a jinx)

He's very vulnerable to relapse. I suspect Sky, who have sacked everyone else in his generation of pundits, only keep him on out of pity because they know that without the structure and purpose of his job with them he'd probably fall apart. 

[Saint NL]

They hit the bar, big let off

[trousers]

Adam Armstrong's speedy box-to-box runs are impressive but need to make it count

I'd be more surprised if he wasn't drunk.

Another dogshit performance under this shite manager. 

[Maggie May]

Very poor so far.

[Mr X]

Lacking any kind of cutting edge so far

We look really good when we move it with pace. Unfortunately we slow out down way too much and it's extremely ineffective.

Really!? I'm his biggest critic and I think we've done quite well. Need to create more but they're defending very narrow. 

[adrian lord]

Need to get to half time evens. 

[BotleySaint]

Millwall playing a wise game so far. Unlucky not to be winning. We faff with it far too much.. 

[Block41 Saint]

Sulemana is so bad for £22m.

Yep, likewise. I'm yet to be convinced by Russell Martin but we haven't been poor by any stretch of the imagination

Like I said another denepo so far, trickery but no substance he has huge potential though much like dejenepo did but never hit form

2 goals since signing, both in a pointless game. Absolute shite signing from SR.
