Barsiem Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 So far same old saints this season. Look good against the better teams (for little reward) and crap against the teams around us...

trousers Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) We're missing a Stuart Armstrong type presence... Someone who can link midfield and attack.
