Our best hope is a resounding Everton win to keep Lampard in a job and accelerate Jones' exit.

Pretty much. Broadcasters encode a signal in material that you can't see to let YouTube recognise copyright so changing the aspect or flipping it can scramble that and makes it harder for YouTube to automatically detect and remove. You'd also need to mess with the audio a bit if you wanted a good chance to fool it.

Still can't believe Jones gave the players two weeks off during the world cup. Chopping and changing players while retaining Moi and Lyanco is never going to result in a cutting edge or defensive stability. And don't even get me started on 5 at the back. Knowing us we'll fire Jones just after Everton have replaced Lampard with Potter.

We can't seem to score from open play and our defence seems to gift 1-2 goals a goal to the opposition. So, sadly 0-2 with the first goal being an own goal and the second coming from a set piece. Saints row announce the signing of an obscure Argentinian striker during the light show.

Oh dear. It's all gone a bit Angus Gunn

That's a lightweight midfield, error prone defence and shot shy attack.

It's way too early to judge the guy. He wouldn't have been my first choice. All I've seen so far is the Liverpool game and we went from the first half I've come to expect to giving them a game in the second. If, and it's a big if, that's a sign of what is to come then it seems like a good thing. I guess I'm looking for positives after the dross we've played this year, sitting back and waiting for the other team to score.

When Lavia is back fit our midfield two should be him and AMN

Jesus should be picking up a yellow for simulation there as well.

Given our injuries and and Arsenal's form this was always going to be a free hit. That being said - Ralph out. That being said, hold on until half time and then 3-1 after a stunning Saints revival in the second half.

I'm scared.

No other player broke up so many Saints moves tonight. It was worse than playing with 10 men.

Ralph to BBC Sport ""With the last pass or finish, we are not dangerous enough at the moment. We need more punch in the front. We need to create more chances. We have to find the players who can give you that." Conveniently forgetting he left all the players he "found" to give us that on the bench until the rest of the team were already mentally on the bus.

Gerrard should be apologising they didn't score 5

I can't remember a player making me this angry.

I sincerely fucking hope this press conference is going to be a protracted apology that ends in a resignation.

It wouldn't matter who we recruited if we persist with the same players.

Me too

I can't defend this shit any more. Ralph recruited some exciting players then didn't use them. Ralph out.

It's like a bunch of blokes who had never met each other, got on a coach and wound up on a football pitch.

Ralph out.

This is a bit unfair. Moi deserved a standing ovation from the Villa fans. No one has done so much to break up any potential Saints attacks.

The only thing I can think of is that Ralph has forgotten that Moi is on the pitch.

I guess we're trying really hard not to make the Prince of Wales' week any more tragic

At least someone associated with Saints has a chance of scoring tonight.
