Absolute tosh. We were second best against a depleted Birmingham and Oxford. Fans have every right to expect better than these performances.

Yeah credit tonight, his changes made a difference for once. But that’s probably because he left our best player on the bench for no reason

It’s rubbish Tonda

I could be wrong, but didn’t Brentford play the formation when they got promoted? I’ve always thought this is where it comes from. Rasmus’ trying to recreate his time at Brentford

The corporate player trading entity formerly known as Southampton FC marches on

Yes. Dreadful, turgid stuff against a very poor team. Cant believe how boring and bad we are.

You’re trying to move the goalposts. Your original post said people are overreacting. No they aren’t. Tonight was as bad as it gets.

No it’s not. Birmingham (just up from L1) had a host of players out, yet were by far the better side until the 80th minute. Compounded by the Oxford game and it’s nowhere near good enough.

Fucking shit

Rattled if we wake up and play to even 1/10th of our players ability we can win this now

GET IN

It’s enforced from the top down. Some spreadsheet or metric dictates it. Only thing that makes sense, because anyone with a brain can see it’s fucking abysmal

Because at some point their spreadsheet informed them that this formation was the right way to play. And they’re incapable of making good decisions.

Club is toxic. Making teams that have just come up from league one look like Barcelona. No disrespect to Oxford and Birmingham, as they’re clearly working hard and set up well. But with our resources and size of the club it’s just beyond horrendous.

This and the Oxford game are nothing short of a disgrace. As bad as anything under Still. The formation is a fucking joke.

This is truly abysmal again

Should be 1-0 down.. Luckily Kyogo is the Japanese Damion Downs

FUCK OFF

Yes. Anything except the torturous shite we’ve had to endure recently.

This is such a ridiculous argument, lol. If formations and tactics do nothing, why does every single club in the history of football have a manager? If it’s unimportant and only down to players then surely they’d save money on a mangers wages? Why do some managers make a huge difference to a team instantly?

The question is, would THB do well in other championship teams? He has dropped off massively, but he is one that can still do a job at champ level Swap out one of Cov’s centre backs for THB and they wouldnt lose too much. Our problems run far deeper than him, in my opinion. It’s almost all the players around him, the midfield, the keeper, full backs. No CB will thrive in this team because we are fucking toilet.

Only caveat to this is he has been promoted twice. And looked good doing so. But this season he has been abysmal, like the rest of our defence. I don’t think 3 at the back suits him at all. One more reason why it’s absurd that it’s all we do.

Who cares? Useless wankers in a shit formation playing wanker football in a city that’s an absolute shit hole.

It’s clear the trajectory that we are on. And it isn’t upward. Terminal decline under these chumps. Looking like we’ll be back in league one again within 3-5 years. They get every big footballing decision wrong.
