Who is this guy? Where have we been hiding him? Redmondo.

Armstrong been having a word in his ear, eh? Not that he was going to get anywhere near the England set-up unless he started bagging goals for fun. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/6826982/southampton-che-adams-commits-scotland-call-up/amp/

Anyone got a stat on any other team in the EPL era, top of the league after 15-odd games and relegated by the end of the season. Could be a first. How did we become so abysmal?

I enjoyed watching us a few months back, but now it’s agony and I hate it, so much so that I forgot this game started at 6pm. Nice surprise though, to see we are still free falling and absolutely atrocious, when I thought we were going to have a comfortable season when we sat top, all those weeks ago, sigh.

Just the 8pts now and four away games on the trot; Leeds, Everton, Sheff Utd & Man City. Could easily lose three of those, four would be a catastrophe. Safe to say I’m worried until we bag another win, not sure where it’s coming from yet.

I think we’re definitely going to be safe, well, I thought that was a banker in December that we were, still, here we are.. We could easily finish this season 17th if we continue on a bad run, I would be gutted if that were the case after how good we were, I mean, top of the table ffs! I can’t see us ever being dragged down into a battle to stay up, two or three more wins and we’ll be good. Sheff Utd and West Brom look too far adrift - I do fear that dreaded 18th, but I hope we’ll see a few more good performances before the end of the season to keep us safe.

I agree that’s probably correct. I really like Hassenhuttl, I think he is doing a tremendous job - he certainly has not had the backing that Pochettino had the luxury of back in 2013/14 and could quite well imagine that Hassenhuttl would be equally as successful with us as Mauricio was, if the same sort of ambition was still in motion now.

Both, only within the last 7 years too and to now be managing Barca and PSG. Shows the sort of calibre we attracted and ambition we had back then, in comparison to present times.

Sheff Utd or Bournemouth at home then? Yes, please, could do with a wee FA Cup run and back-door European football..

Don’t think he ever lost it, he went through a crap period and got labelled as our worst-choice goalkeeper after being sensational for us. Since then, been treated to Gunn & McCarthy and they’ve not been half the ‘keepers Fraser ever was for us, still think he’s the best we’ve got and wasted him these past few seasons.

Don’t reckon we’ll score against 9 either the way our last few weeks have gone. Nah, probably will, and get it chalked off for a dodgy VAR call.

Got to be massive offers for JWP in the summer, just for the free-kick specialist aspect. Handful of players like him around at the moment, big clubs will pay big money for dead-ball specialists.

Wow, that is utterly abysmal. What is wrong with us?!

God help us, I hope Hassenhuttl isn’t giving up on us. Its far from his fault, a talented manager who’d be doing well with us if he’d been backed by our awful backroom. Now he has two 9-0’s to his resume in as many seasons, he really must feel let down by the non-existent transfer policy.

Please god, do not finish 8-0 or 9-0. We’ve heard about 9-0 for over a year and that was just Leicester. We’ll hear about this for the next three years since it’s Man Utd.

Just it’s bare, ravaged bones I think. Nothing new there.

Are they? lol

Why are we 2/1 at home with the bookies when Villa are 5/4? Seems unfair on Saintsz Not complaining on a betting perspective, seems generous, but crazy they think we’re that bad not to deserve being favourites to a side that just got beaten by Burnley midweek and we’ve just not long beaten Arsenal and Liverpool at home.

It definitely was, got nothing on the ball. We’re a wee team though.

Exactly what I thought. He was clearly ahead of the two CB’s but the RB at the bottom of the picture was to the naked eye equal with him. I was waiting to see the lines drawn by VAR but seemed to be instantly called offside when clearer decisions than that have taken 5mins to come to a conclusion in the past. Mystifying.

Amazon not even a smidge of a replay of the offside build up. I swear he was level with West Ham’s RB #24 if the lines on the field are straight

Let’s hope they get 10. We can lay to rest 0-9 forever. Can’t believe commentators still cling onto it.

“It’s a foul outside the area” Its incredible that because it’s inside the area it’s a factor in a referees decision making. A foul anywhere should be a foul. I wasn’t aware there was a separate rule book for inside the box as opposed to out. I disagree at the view given that a boot flying towards Ings’ face did not affect his header and that was why it was not reviewed. Of course it’s going to affect the quality of your header, you aren’t going to commit to heading that ball when you’ve got a size 12 two feet away from ploughing between your eyes.

Oh damn. Seen that coming for the past five minutes, it was just constant Man City pressure. They’re still at it now, wave after wave of quick counters. I hope this doesn’t become a deflating score line.

The same listening to 5Live. Whoever the woman is commentating jizzed herself when Aubameyang scored, couldn’t stop going on about how a side like Arsenal shouldn’t be in 15th.
