St. Ciervo

It is that SR shine. We make everyone look like a total asshat. 

The only data that matters is 0 points. 

Maybe AA will score a goal and maybe we won't get overrun midfield. Maybe SR has a plan for January and yetis are real. 

We are getting a bounce, we're just a lead ball. We went from losing 0-5 to 1-2. #Results

Our set piece coach needs sacking. 

Dont believe we have one.

So are we saying RM was not the problem, and it’s simply the case the squad is just not good enough for the premier league. 

How can you say that with a straight face? 

Losing coverage, while feeling torturous, is probably mercy.

It came back in time to watch the soft yellow on THB. Normal programming resumed. 

Thats a foul on Les, but that wasnt a foul on Ramsdale earlier... I am in upside down world. 

I dont understand the rule apparently.

Nice to see us with same speed in getting the ball forward....where was this for the most of the season?

Football is fun again... over night.

Used incorrectly…..he has had so many opportunities and pure speed?

Sorry apart from one end of season friendly what has he delivered? He has played wide not down the middle and not back to goal he gets the ball facing the defender and stops and never uses that speed by going past a defender.

Sorry not having he has been used incorrectly at all. 

Sure we sat him in a wide position, but rarely (if ever) did we play a long ball to him to chase. This is a kid that will go for cheap somewhere else and find joy. I hope sooner than later for all of us.

I hope this means 30% off for other teams to take BBD, Stephens, and Macca. What a Christmas it would be.

We finally use a centre forward that holds the ball up and gets on the end of balls into the box causing problems for the defence and you want to drop him after one non-scoring game for BBD. 

Onuachu deserves a run of starts. 

Do you think the big man is going to be able to go given the short break? We hadn't seen him go 90 EVER.

But you are right, the man deserves another go if able.

Sometimes these sort of players add a certain something to the team that managers and fellow players see but many fans dont...in my humble opinion.  

Luckily there is VAR so us simple fan-folk can see the hair pulling.

I wonder if Gakpo or Ramos would have hit such heights if they came here instead. Sulemana has been used incorrectly for his entire time here. He is pure speed, but we have been asking him to play with his back to the goal. I am sure we could have equally mismanaged either of those other 2 players. 

Edit: My post had nothing to do with RS... He could be managed by any one of us.

Tiring, but to be honest our fitness has not been as bad as I had feared. 

We've had multiple months for a light-paced pre-season. 

Such a positive half. Great escape is possible -- we are at least a mid-table team. 

Our team is not used to pressing. A large break midway is probably just what we needed. 

Hope the goalie is alright. Terrible to see. 

Our goal scorers have the yips after suffering 0 chances week in and week out.

Are we still playing Russball? 

The midfielders are. Ramsdale is aware there was a change.

Our midfielders have forgotten how to pass forward. Scar tissue.

I disagree. He served his time on the bench. If he is an improvement, he plays. Time to turn the page and start fresh. 

That sentiment does not extend to Stephens who can F right off. 

Another plucky, goalless draw.  We cant buy a goal, so we should pray for the clean sheet. In Ramsdale We Trust.

Current points and games until end of Jan, will leave you to add your predictions!

Saints 6 points

H whu

A palace

H Brentford

A Man U

A Notts F

h Newcastle

A Ipswich

Total for Feb 13?

I think we could get 8 points from that run. Modest, but Herculean given the Martin scar tissue.

I recall when he was signed someone from his international team tweeted that we had signed a great footballer if we could be patient. Not an exact quote, but close enough. I knew we had signed up for a headache at that moment. I did not expect an aneurysm. Lets just hope Juric can get his career back on track.
