BBD offers nothing what so ever...to attack or defence

I don't want to write him off completely just yet, but he's just an empty shirt playing out on the wing.

I'd think about swapping him for Cornet or Fraser.

If I looked at the bench now and saw Alcaraz, Onuachu and Sulemana i'd see players there that offer something different to change it. As it is all I see is more of the same with less individual ability.

Two of those players were crap in the Championship. The other apparently couldn’t secure a move to Turkey. A classic example of players becoming better when they not playing.

If anything Saints have got worse this half. Backwards passing has returned and hardly making any progress over the half way line. It's like they've given up. But here come the subs.

Confidence totally sucked out

I can’t help but think that he and Archer were signed as very good players to have in the Championship, in the likely event that we go straight back down.

Considering this team, player for player, is markedly better than last year, I think Martin did an outstanding job getting us promoted last year. 

We only just scrapped it by being slightly less shit in the playoffs! It wasn't comfortable promotion by any stretch of the imagination

And the players coming on have proved themselves how?

I'm aware of that - but we certainly weren't the team of PL players that we were made out to be.

That’s not the point. You mentioned three players who you claimed could change a game against Man United, despite the fact that they did nothing in the Championship.

Very disappointing......would have expected some fight from Saints but there has been nothing.  Bereft of ideas and confidence.

I simply do not see how we have any chance of staying up this season....we have literally no attacking threat.  Today the only threat was from an 18 year old making his first start.

The players that came on are more of the same but worse individually.

Tator saying United have had all of the attempts. They are comfortably knocking it around, inviting us up. That's after they had pelnty of the ball in our final third.

We're not laying a glove on them this half.

That's why the penalty was so crucial. Score and they fold. Now they are just seeing out the game as comfortable as fuck.

Of course we're not staying up! I knew we weren't staying up when the final whistle went in the playoff final.
