Gio the ‘endless nastiness’ is a direct consequence of RM being picked by RM and the saints support having to watch him, albeit through binoculars, twice a week. It should settle down around May.

We’d have to have sold Che Adams.

When he’s on his game Adams is most effective as a bully centre forward, the only one we have currently who can use his strength to hold up play, in other words holding his own with the oppo centre backs. Not a great finisher of course but this season looks pretty good when Armstrong is played on the right. Right to retain him in January rather than throw the dice I think.

Future sport historians will refer to this watershed epoch as Annus Ankersen.

Hoping that this is the game where we get back to business at home. 2-0 saints, hopefully the WBA set up.

They haven’t got the range…

More antisocial media to be honest.

I think you have to say what you see and for a number of games the opposition have been clearly targeting our left side - knowing that this is where the gaps will materialise and where pressure can most effectively be applied. As others have said it’s baffling that our coaching team fail to see it or worst still, fail to call it out to RM. Even if it’s just to provide manning with some time out of the firing line. The best we have looked defensively this season is Bree THB Bednarek KWP, by a country mile, and if that quartet is fit they need to start our remaining matches in the run in.

Is the answer.

Playing Manning could cost us promotion, thick as two short planks footballer, zero positional sense.

80% possession, the same as cashflow v profit in business, an illusion of success.

Yes definitely a frisson, not necessarily a bad thing.

Russ was doing his best to be zen in the press conference, but clear Adam B gets on his tits. If we lose today the post match interview could be particularly tense. I expect us to win and the scar tissue to calm down once more.

Terry Downes would beef up central midfield.

Good lad.

Part of his natural game, but the side is better with him in it.

Have to play strongest side and have to win.

Reflecting on last night, I’m no Klippity fan but you have to say he did a complete number on Russ last night. Bit like an orchestra conductor knowing just how much tempo and pitch was needed to get through without exhausting the wind section. The academy and coaches at Liverpool also clearly place attacking emphasis on finishing once in sight of goal, they were clinical we were clumsy. It was almost a carbon copy of that last saints premier league team.

And generally on the streets of Southampton.

They’ll be a size 11 ECCO low rise sneaker footprint on the fucker as soon as they’re on the motorway.

Yes, Cymru Premier League.

It’s the lack of protein, he’s full of pent up fructose and vegan hair gel!

Russ looked fuming in the interview, there’s an advocado that’s going to get smashed on the coach journey home!

It’s tactical, the inverted Delap!

Since he asked to play centre forward.
