Our hard fought 1-0 defeat against WHU is looking even worse today, as they’ve been pumped 5-0 and we backed it up with a shit defeat

Maybe not, but Armstrong was dire. TP would’ve at least given their defence something to think about

Not quite sure why we didn’t utilise our 6’8 brick shithouse until injury time when pumping it long to Armstrong clearly isn’t the answer

It’s a must win isn’t it if we’re ever going to kick off the most unlikely of survival stories. Need to play for the win, if we come up short then fair enough

How is Tall Paul on the bench and Armstrong on the pitch when all the points are up for grabs? We’ve been screaming for some presence up top

Russball this. Walking pace, no creativity, no intensity. We’ll give it away in shit fashion again I reckon

Not that we need much help but it seems the referees this season are desperate for us to lose

Need to change this. Tall Paul for Armstrong and get us up the pitch a bit

Armstrong needs an extended period out of the XI. Embarrassing

Yeah, he’s just not the mobile and combative CM I think we need in there with Flynn. Not really his fault but it’s not his game

Just as I say that he’s involved for the first time. Armstrong no goal threat at all…

Aribo is a real passenger too. Really dropped a bollock not getting another competent 6 in the summer

Very aggressive. Just not very available

Spurs are just Russball with better players. Dross

There’s something that just irritates me about listening to yanks talking about football, so it’s a no from me

If we were having this conversation 2+ months ago I’d have agreed, but the chances of getting anyone reputable in at this stage are so slim. SR should’ve pulled the trigger ages ago before we were so cut adrift and certain of relegation.

You think an expensive journeyman would instantly find 3 wins and get us right back in it? I think it’d be just as likely from the likes of Rohl

Exactly. It’s no shock that Downes has looked exposed given lack of any defensive qualities of Lallana, Aribo, big Les or even Manning helping him out in the middle. He’s been thrown under the bus

Very Saintsy defending that. Russ would be applauding the idea

Salisu goes full Russball and gifts Arsenal a tap in from fucking around at the back. #TheSouthamptonWay

It’s almost like they haven’t got the faintest fucking idea what they’re doing

Yeah but his possession stats are garbage, see the bigger picture

You just know they’ll turn up and actually play on Sunday, smash us 5-0. We’re the perfect game for them with Ange under pressure. Dreading it

And this season. We’ve got 23 more games to go, I don’t think the fans can endure what are essentially training games for the opposition, walking football, nothing to get excited about. We urgently need a change, at least some hope or something to cling onto. Russball sucked the life out of the club and fans within 10 games

Which is exactly what should’ve happened from day 1 in the Premier League, and exactly why Russ needs to go ASAP
