For a top Championship side he is fine. You don’t really believe that you are just dying on a hill on your posts - is that why you disappeared last season you didn’t like criticism of uncle Baz?

So now, we've got something else to blame Baz for. 8

You just never know. Luton were better as a Premier League team last season than we are, they're now looking like they could go straight down again 1
S-Clarke Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) 49 minutes ago, Matthew Le God said: For this season... Ramsdale Harwood-Bellis Fernandes Downes Sugawara Edwards Plus many purchases for the u21s look very promising. I'll give you Ramsdale, THB, Downes and Fernandes. Sugawara has been next level shit and Edwards may be good for us, but not proven yet. The majority of their transfer additions since they have taken over have taken us backwards. Bazunu - Rubbish Lis - We were a Vehicle for his Gotzpe adventure Taylor - Not really sure what the point of that one was. Larios - Pointless ABK - A disaster all being told. Aribo - Pretty crap. Sulemana - Utter heap of turd. Onuachu - Not good enough. Charly - Decent, but probably not quite suited to English football Lavia - Class - their one standout. Charles - May be good, not really shown up for us yet. Stewart - Pointless. Could have told you the outcome on that one before we signed him. Cornet - Horrendous Ugochuckwu - I think he's rubbish. BBD - Horrendous Edozie - Not really good enough. Mara - holy mother of shite. Orsic - wtf? AMN - Trash DCC - Awful So bar Lavia, THB, Fernadnes and maybe Charly the majority of their 'driven' signings have been trash. You can't really argue with that list. I wouldn't say their blind spot is limited to the attack, they've made shit calls in multiple positions. That's why I don't want any of this crew making any additions this window. They cannot be trusted. Save the dollar, go down, scrap the lot of them and rebuild a decent recruitment setup and then start again. Edited January 11 by S-Clarke 15
S-Clarke Posted January 11 Posted January 11 In what world do they think we're going to get £16m for Sulemena? They're still sniffing glue by the sounds of it. He'll be with us until the last day of the window, be shipped off on loan, come back to us in the summer and we'll pay him off. No one will spend money on him as he's crap. 7

Sparkkyy Posted January 11 Posted January 11 (edited) 4 hours ago, Matthew Le God said: We have a better squad than Luton, it might not appear that way but Martin's tactics destroyed any hope of staying up and now we are a lost cause due to being so far adrift and devoid of confidence. So you are saying we’ll slip into mid table mediocrity next season with no possibility of an immediate return to the premier league? The damage done by previous head coaches and SR has destroyed any hope of a revival that people wrongly assume will happen just because it happened before. The words death-spiral come to mind.

Gloucester Saint Posted January 12 Posted January 12 (edited) 8 hours ago, Matthew Le God said: 10 goals in 13 Championship games is prolific in a small sample. He had been crippled with an achilees injury, wasn’t due back until the autumn at best, and out of contract at the end of the season. If he’d kept that ratio up over a whole season….that makes Adam Armstrong or BBD…hardly worth the mind-numbingly stupid decision to pay £8m plus an extra payment after we went up. When Saints signed Lambert for £1m, then very rare in League 1, he was already a prolific scorer at that level over a few seasons with ability to play higher with the right conditioning and lifestyle. But we were a far more sensible club then. Edited January 12 by Gloucester Saint 2

Although most people with even a basic understanding of the game can see it even the computer game and stats geeks can see that his stats last seaon I believe, despite us being the 4th best team, made him the worst goalkeeper in the championship which is quite an achievement after also being the worst goalkeeper in the premier league. 4

Fair point but with Stewart's availability a major question and assuming Onuachu departs, we will need a central striker. I was actually thinking more about wide men and creative players to supply these prolific strikers. We need to sign some creativity, unless you think Fraser, Sulemena, Amo-Ameyaw and Edozie will give us that? Brooks was better for us than some think and needs replacing. If Dibling stays, that would ease my concerns. KWP was also one of our most creative players in the Championship and it looks unlikely he will be here next season (you never know).

He could be the difference maker for the blades or Sunderland's promotion. Maybe we can play hardball?

FarehamSaintJames Posted January 12 Posted January 12 Anyone that is backing SR or these signings needs to give their head a wobble. 😂 It’s quite simply the worst Saints team, for the league they’re in, that I have seen in my lifetime. The likes of Ramsdale and Fernandes are only heightened because the rest have been so shit. It’s an incredible low bar to be classed as a good player for us. 2

I'd be interested to see how many shots on target he faced before he got injured compared to other keepers as I our inability to play that style effectively must of led to a tonne of shots on goal. He may become a better keeper by facing fewer balls than bonny blue for a change. Edited January 12 by Convict Colony

woodsaint1 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 If he wanted to sign a new contract with us he would have done so already. Being a free agent means he can get a bigger pay day as clubs arent paying a fee for him.
ErwinK1961 Posted January 13 Posted January 13 (edited) 35 minutes ago, goodymatt said: The only conceivable way this happens is if we agree to include a relatively low release clause for the summer (£7-10m?). Stops him going for free and doesn’t take a huge offer for him to leave. But after he didn’t get his move last time after relegation, can’t see him agreeing to do that. Plus, he’ll get a handsome signing on fee whoever he goes to if he leaves on a free. Edited January 13 by ErwinK1961 1
