Leicester 5-0 Saints - Match Thread

[coalman]

"Southampton look like they mean business here"

LOL

[Whitey Grandad]

Why is Hinchcliffe going on about ‘shoulder to shoulder’? That stopped being a legitimate challenge some time ago.

Can’t be arsed, off to watch the final episode of Shogun. Will come back here tomorrow when the justifiable ranting is all over.  Nothing against anyone for their understandable comments but I can’t be doing negativity atm.

How is Shogun? Watched the first episode and thought it incredible. Worth continuing?

[Sheaf Saint]

We looked so much more dangerous earlier in the season when we had Arma on the right and Fraser/Edozie on the left.

Arma has been so much less effective on the left since Brooks took his place on the right.

What does Martin see in Brooks? Seriously? He has some skills but he's completely disrupted our team and hasn't justified his starting place at all IMO.

[obelisk]

Good cross into the box nit nobody there.

[Saint NL]

Commentator is praising the rousing half time team talk

It's still never really punished though is it.

Plus, that wasn't even shoulder to shoulder, he simply got to the ball before Brooks did.

[captainchris]

Have to say Charles has played well

I think the half time talks was "ok guys just this once you can abandon the Russ ball!"

[coalman]

Smallbone might not be strongest in the tackle but he's great and finding space and moving the ball quickly.

Because we haven’t got anyone in the box to take advantage. Unless Stewart can come on with crutches

Kudos to the Saints fans who are still singing us on. Poor bastards.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Fuck me TM - Brookes off now please!

Hopefully Brighton hear that and note it for when DZ leaves them in the summer 

[Saint Scott]

THB having a stinker tonight

[stknowle]

Have to say Brooks has been a huge fucking let down. Was expecting big things but he’s been ordinary at best.

[coalman]

Brooks has realised that with Rothwell off the pitch he has to lose the ball aimlessly enough for 2 players.

[Sarisbury Saint]

Send him back to Bournemouth tonight.

Shite player.

[obelisk]

Saints tippy-tapping around in their own area and gift them a chance.

Yes, beautifully filmed and a very good storyline. Cosmo Jarvis is superb in his role.

certainly many times better than watching this s**e

[Saint Fan CaM]

Put KWP on the right - he’s being turned inside out.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Adams is such a lazy fucker

[Scoobysaint]

Get Brooks off and Sully on. Aribo off and Fraser on. Arma drops in deeper. Get some pace on!

[Chez]

KWP getting murdered..again. The THB showing his limitations when under pressure. We love our better players, but they are not world beaters by any stretch.

 

[Lighthouse]

Brooks seems to think if he wanders around offside all the time, he’ll play like Inzaghi by default.

[Ed Rooney]

Leicester are dirty bastards, ref letting them get away with it 

[Saint NL]

Fair play to Martin, he's learned from Cardiff at the weekend. 

Be utter shit for 60 mins and then fluke a couple 🔥

you want the slower Bree out there? 

[captainchris]

I’ll say it, Walker Peters has been well off and Smallbone has improved us but then Rothwell ……….. RM picking Rothwell really does leave him open to criticism.

Agree with the former but has Sulemana ever come on and changed a game? I'd rather see Dibling get a crack of the whip. 

[Obstacle1]

Any time we play through their press they foul us. Ref seems to have forgotten his cards

So, that’s what properly coached teams do, 

[Chez]

Team of the year keeper flaps. Are all championship keepers are a bit dodgy?

[Saint NL]

Ryan manning on to tighten up the defense

[OnceaSaintalwaysaSaint]

These are better subs

It will be Edozie. Like you, RM has lost faith in Sulemana

[coalman]

Not against these subs - just 15 minutes too late.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Hahaha. Manning on for Bree. Fabulous RM you utter idiot.

[Saint NL]

Brooks off, about time.

Hopefully Armstrong will move over to the right and get involved more 

[Sheaf Saint]

Manning on for Bree,

KWP going to the right I guess.

[Viking Saint]

Decent changes

[macca155]

Painful isn't it

[Saint Scott]

Dogshit 

[Lee On Solent Saint]

So fuckin easy

[obelisk]

Saints defence statuesque. 2-0.

[LGTL]

We’ve been so, so bad. 

[Saint NL]

2-0, useless
