Needs to get nasty, it’s awful tactics, all the opposition teams know to high press us as we’re 100% playing out from the back and they’re looking for the mistake. It has to stop, or at least, not be f****ng predictable!

If there was a betting market that we’d concede after get caught playing it out from the back, I’d have a few quid by now. Its gifting the opposition goals, such a farce and so obvious, but too self-righteous to change it and get Bazunu just to lump it up the field. So frustrating and infuriating.

What the f**k is Russell talking about in the post-match. “Played well, praising the players, much better performance than Sunderland” 🤣

Does anyone apart from Martin want it to stay at just 4 tho? Say it was 7, imagine the pressure upon his shoulders, we’ve lost anyway, depends how many more games of needing to score 5 to win a game that we want to watch.

Wide open every time they get in our final third. Its no wonder we’ve been conceding 3/4/5 every game, what a mess, had high hopes for this season. Can categorically say my hopes have faded fast 🤣🤦🏼‍♂️

Around £20m to buy THB if promoted, feels like a steal considering he’s 21.

Never enjoyed goals anyway. Looks like we’re gonna have nobody to score any by tomorrow evening

We could take him off their hands next year once they go down then

One on target, one goal, that figures!

Suspensions going to rack up nicely if we keep accumulating yellows like we do 😦 Our 17th yellow in three and a bit games.

With Tella and Che quite clearly on their way. The only thing I’m convinced of is we’re shipping 30+ goals out of the door and Fraser so far ain’t going to replace them. We’re selling our chance of promotion, promotion which brings back all the income opportunities that the EPL brings for short-term financials rather than long-term. I hope the final week of the window will change my feeling, but we are considerably weaker as these weeks go on.

Surely Dortmund have a good young talent that needs game time that we could make use of, potentially to come the other way?

There’s no question we need to keep Che & Tella. Tella and Che’s value to us this season outweighs selling Che next week for a quick £12m when we’ve sold for nearly £150m. Both their goals tally they have proven to achieve in this division take us back to the EPL. If ArmA finds his championship goal scoring form, or even just consistent performances like today, we’ll be close if not top of the pile with midfield and defensive additions.

Travesty if Che goes. I know he’s worth £12m odd, but he’ll get us a 30 goal haul this season, that’d take us back to the EPL and that’s worth far more to the club, surely?

Come on lads, need 7pts from 3! Need a wee sweetener, a wee statement to attract those top-tier Championship players that we’re on a promotion push before this summer window shuts!

I thought I remember reading this - I’m still waiting for something to happen

Surely we must be a better proposition than an Belgian Pro League side with little to no European football, or maybe we aren't anymore to some folk, but I still feel like we're still a good team to showcase any talent you might have, if you're looking for a move to a big side in the future - we're at least proven not to stand in the way of folk if such a possibility of a move arises. Vincent Kompany obviously thought Burnley in the Championship was a far better option for his career than Anderlecht in the Belgian Pro. If Onuachu couldn't do it, and it seems ALOT of folk on here were dying to get Tall Paul to sign, then Paintsil probably ain't going to be a big loss either.

How much are they hoping to take him back for? Do you reckon we’d be struggling to get even half back of our £15/16m? We’re obviously going to have to subsidise his wages too, but the £k’s we’d save on paying his weekly wage for doing nout could go towards another player.

Move on! If he’s already dubious about the move, just stay clear of him. Reiterated it before, we only want folk who want to wear the shirt, if he’s not excited about a move to a top English team with proven pathways for players whom perform well to bigger and better things, then that’s his loss and not ours. Sell Genk Onuachu back for £10m, take the loss and move on from this “swap deal” - plenty of others more than capable than him and Paintsil, Onuachu is offering us f**k all every week, reinvest the money towards a new Forward/Winger that wants to help Saints push back to the Prem other than sitting on their arse collecting a paycheck each week.

The guy has the potential to be a star for us in this league, could put up a huge total of assists and goals if he put his mind on the job in hand, but i’m assuming he’s downed tools. Shame, but we don’t want folk around that don’t want to be here and he’s obviously one of those now clearly.

Could have a couple of rapid Ghanaian wingers if Sulemana’s mind is at the club. Let’s hope they’re decent pals and could convince him to stay, could devastate the Championship attacking-wise, Sulemana LW, Tella AM, Paintsil RW. Onuachu would certainly be good to move on, no doubt eating up a large chunk of wage and offering us nothing now it seems. Any chance we could move on Djenepo and Aribo from our midfield too?

Martin better rip through this squad tonight, no questions. Unacceptable, period, if we want to be going back upwards rather than down the leagues.

Deflated now. I don’t think it’s just the fans that need some feel good from an opening win, these players do too! It doesn’t feel like it’s going to materialise now, hate this feeling, needed a lift! 😩

We need to give him a wee rise if he wants to stay - he could well be our ticket back to the top, a goal haul like his last season would be invaluable!
