James, slow, terrible in the air Perry, slow, drops too deep to make up for his lack of pace keeping all and sundry onside. Lancashire, lightweight in the air, ballwatches, erratic Skacel, slow, lazy, doesn't cover round and switches off that is why we are second bottom.

You are quite right. Stinking cold is clouding my memory. I still do not understand why we are not starting with BWP up front.

he doesn't look fit/sharp/mobile to me. His body language sucks and even his passing was poor yesterday.

McGoldrick is the only striker on the books available isn't he?

no arguement with that but again I ask why sign Molyneux? Are we selling Skacel, playing him further forward or have we spent money on cover (we have Mills already) when what we need is first teamers.

fair enough, I guess we didn't have any other defenders to sit on the bench. Are we paying Pulis yet?

if we didn't want another youngster at the back then why sign him? Let me just add that I have no problem with signng a left back, no problem signng a youngster, but what I do have a problem with is signing players only for them to not go straight into the first team. Signing squad players won't get us out of trouble.

I understood that he has been training here for weeks.

but he was on the bench yesterday?

JP has been quoted along the lines of we are only looking to bring in players on loan that are better than we already have. Are we then happy to sign/buy players that are NOT better than we already have? I mean why sign Molyneux if we are not going to play him? We already had cover for Rudi in Surman and Mills, why then sign Lee and then sit him on the bench against Man U? Is this going to be another Forecast-style signing where we buy a player before his predecessor has gone out the door?

he played poorly, but like all strikers they need a good long run in the side to find their feet.

We started 4-4-2 but Gillett was so poor its not true, miscontrolled almost every single time. If you don't compete in in the middle you have no chance. Only when we flooded the midfield moving to 4-3-3 did we even look like being capable of competing. Sadly that forced Patterson to play in a wide left position where he struggled to see the ball before being sent off. The big fears about CB were realised as Lancashire wasn't far behind Gillett. All round we were second best, we will need to improve greatly to have any chance. I have to praise James though. I have been his biggest critic and his was excellent today. Great first touch, poise and he gave it all against Nani. David 7 - some poor kicking, some decent saves. James 8 - best game in a Saints shirt Lancashire 3 - ball watching clueless Perry 6 - usual solid stuff Skacel 6 - marking two at times. Surman 6 - tried hard but not enough. Gilett 0 - terrible game Gobern 2 - did next to nothing Smith 3 - one decent run, comes inside too much Patterson 0 - did nothing and a poor tackle McGoldrick 4 - worked hard but went nowhere the subs did nothing much.

quality player, someone I have seen several times and rate highly. Not sure his club will be letting him leave for peanuts though. Andy Bishop is another.

I disagree with that, he was certainly better at CM, but one bad mistake against Derby seems to have wiped otu some decent displays earlier in the season. I'd take him ahead of Pearce, Perry and Lancashire.

this is what supporting Saints is all about. Enjoy it.

is he struggling to agree terms with his new suiters or has someone bought Lallana/Euell/Saga/Skacel?

but would they pay 60% of them perhaps? We've got two keepers kicking their heals. One of the three keepers needs to get off the wage bill for half a season.

I am absolutely full of cold, how can I get me £185 for my ticket?

why create a thread slating the lad before he has `failed'? David had a decent game last time out, lets hope he matches that against superior opposition.

he can't control a football, pass a football, run quickly, shoot or even head all that well. I think that explains things. Oh and no one likes him.

one of the main reasons we struggled last season as well.

He was actually excellent last year until he bust his finger and he was decent the year before. Since his error against QPR he has done very for us, shame it took fans years to forgive him for that mistake.

there's a time and a place though isn't there?

Get Ince in straight away.
