Ok we are getting somewhere. But yes he was at fault for the loss and definitely not getting a point. Already mentioned on an earlier post but let me summarise it: 1. He should have saved the first. He got down to save a much harder shot earlier in the game so how can people then say he cannot save an easier chance? Defies logic. 2. He should save the third. No ball should be going across the box without a so called competent keeper making it his. If you watch the goal he runs to the post and stands behind the defender who already has that area covered. You honestly wouldn’t see a keeper behaving like that in an u12s game. Who covers an area already covered by your player? Why stand behind your own player so you are unsighted? 3. He got very lucky on the disallowed goal which again was a howler on his part and could have easily been given. The point I'm trying to get across is he’s so bad it doesn’t even get to the point where we need to analyse how he dealt with the shot. His positioning is of someone who has never played in goal before. Not even the fundamentals are there and he’s been a professional footballer long enough to have learnt this. He is a complete lost cause and fans need to be united against him otherwise he’s not going anywhere and we will always have to score at least 3 to win a game. Compare us to the Rangers fans who got Martin out the door asap. We need to start be united and vocal about dross like Bazunu.

He’s a very odd individual and has the worst takes on football I’ve ever seen, and that’s saying something. I don’t know who made him a mod but he should be removed from his forum after his downright racist posts about Onuachu. Let it sink in that he endlessly defends Bazunu who has been statistically the worst keeper in all the years he’s been here yet posts vile abuse about Onuachu who statistically is a decent striker.

Saw the score earlier and said to my mates I bet Bozo is at fault for at least 1 and possibly 2 goals. Just like clockwork I check the highlights to see he’s at fault for the first and the definitely the third. I said earlier on this thread that the big problem this club has is the fans. It pains me to see that there are still individuals that back him almost in a cult like way. I can’t be bothered to collate some of the utter lunacy posted but let me just highlight two instances. First, they can’t wait to post about his save early in the first half and then when he lets in the same shot but much closer to him it’s not his fault but an outfield player for not blocking. Second, someone says it’s hard to save long shots. Err, no rules of probability suggest the further the shot is the less chance it should have to go in. In every goal scored in football an outfield player is going to make some form of mistake at some point in the lead up to goal. We have people on here saying that because of that mistake Bozo is forgiven for letting every goal in no matter how tame because someone else made a mistake in the lead up. He’s employed to get in the way of shots!!!!! It doesn’t make a blind bit of difference if an outfield player has allowed an opposing player have a shot in the first place. All of you people on here defending him are killing this club. Let that sink in, you are killing this club defying logic and defending someone completely indefensible. The fact his thread has over 400k views and the likes of much longer serving players like Romeu only has a quarter of that says it all. He's toxic waste of space and cloud over this club.

You comment like someone that dresses their dog in human clothes. Utterly embarrassing comment.

Thanks for semi restoring my faith in Saints fans. The above posters again abusing Onuachu are the real reason Saints have had years of misery. Awful awful judgement that has led to Sports Republic’s poor decisions. That might be a hard pill for some to swallow but the majority of you seals go easy on the dross and hard on the good players. We seriously have people calling him gash and that he can’t score goals. Guess what? He scored again last night so that’s now 9 in 13. I get a bit fed up with the race card being played but I have to question if the above posters are closet racists. There is no other explanation for hating on someone that always tried his best in a team that wasn’t set up for him to shine and who shines everywhere else he has been before and after. He has scored 26 goals in 38 games for Trabzonspor whilst being a Saints player and at no point have we thought maybe we should see what they are doing to get that out of him. I know some of you dim lot only have a goldfish memory but Damion Clownes was what we got instead. Now tell me your abuse was worth it.

Obviously the season hasn’t gone as expected and despite the recent few wins we are still 16 points off Coventry who look like an unstoppable train. I know most fans would take a playoff place again but I’m pretty furious that we have blown a golden opportunity to add a piece of silverware this season. It still irks me that when we were down in league one and became that unstoppable train we got promoted both times without finishing first and a trophy. This season was a golden opportunity for us to be streets ahead of everyone else. Leicester are in trouble financially and didn’t do anything in the summer and finally don’t have Vardy. Ipswich sold their best players and don’t look much. We are clearly missing two big glaring pieces. Obviously it would have been hard to have kept Ramsdale, although even he should have known he was going to sit on the bench. It also looked like Onuachu wanted out which I can’t blame him after the ludicrous abuse he got from some of the fanbase. But hypothetically speaking, would we have won the league had we kept them two? In my opinion yes. Ramsdale for me is one of the best keepers even in the premier league and certainly would be in the champ. Onuachu might be a bit limited but he’d score for fun in this league especially now we have actual wingers in Fellows and Scienza who can cross a ball. Just having a focal point would improve us. But despite what some say on here, he’s a proven goal scorer. He has 8 goals in 12 games this season in the Turkish league and has Trabzonspor in 3rd in the league. The manager has come out and said their improvement this season is directly down to him. For those that think the league is not much look at the squads of the big Istanbul clubs and they all play in Europe. I would confident bet he would have been the leagues top scorer this season and we would have won the league.

Yeah that’s a load of rubbish. Even if he’s got feet like Messi there is a lot that needs to happen and go well with the ball from our goal line to their one. He plays absolutely no part in the game and arguably is only marginally better than a training cone. I think most would agree that it would be reasonable to suggest to the opposition team that if they get shots off on target there is a high chance of them going in. we have had a lot of contenders for players that should never have even had a career at school level, but this guy is beyond that. I genuinely think there is something not quite right with him. The way he plays the game is beyond even anything you’d expect of your semi fit male colleague you invite down to a works tournament to make up the numbers. There are three bare essentials you need to even be considered for a career as a goalkeeper, positioning, good spring and strong arms/hands. Obviously only the best keepers in the world are strong in all three areas but they posses all of these traits and might excel in one. Gavin Bozo the Clown Bazunu is weak in all three areas. Even his most delusional supporter must admit he can do better in all three areas. Yesterday’s goal is a classic example. If you watch the build up to the goal, as the cross comes in, he shifts a number of steps to his right which leaves two thirds of his goal free. Just better positioning would have prevented that goal. We have seen time and time again where he has got his hand to balls and the ball has just gone through him. How many goals has he let in at the near post? How can you be a professional athlete with access to a gym all day and have a football overpower the strength in your arm? It’s batshit crazy on every level. Then we have his spring. I implore you to watch any previous goals scored against him or in future and you will see when he goes to dive he covers hardly any ground at all. That’s why he looks like he goes down in slow motion and can rarely get down to low balls even at his near post. Then on top of that his decision making is that of a coked up gambling addict. Again, you only need to look at just the last game for an example of any of his bad traits. When he came out to get a ball he was never getting and clattered into their player that would have been a penalty with VAR. Granted it might not had be made too much difference yesterday but in a tight game he’s put us 2 goals down. There was also that moment where a cross came in from the left but was cleared and he for some reason flings himself on the floor. If a child did this in an under 10s game down the common you would ask what on earth is going on there. I’m not a big fan of stats and think they have ruined football which was loved because of mercurial talents and moments of brilliance. However, you cannot ignore them when they back up what 90% of fans see with their own eyes. Especially when said stats are repeated season after season. The guy has been the worst keeper in all professional leagues in the country the last 3 seasons I believe? He was the worst keeper in Europe's top 5 leagues 2 years ago and yet is still starting games. Of course at the moment his defenders say well McCarthy is no better but the stats say he is. 90% of fans eyes say he is. Also, McCarthy is 35 and at the end of his career, the fact anyone even has to think whether Bazunu is better says it all. There is also the fact we got promoted last time because Bazunu got injured in the crucial last few games and McCarthy was immense in the playoffs. Hate is a strong word, and there have been plenty of contenders, but I absolutely hate this guy with a passion. There are always going to be incompetent people out there but this guy is off the charts. It really is akin to hiring someone that flips burgers for a living as a brain surgeon. He is biblically bad and needs to be hounded out of the club by the fans. We know this club is capable of giving him a new contract and having him be a milestone around our neck for the next 5 years plus.

Don’t post on here much and football a is a game about opinions but I’ve never met anyone so wrong about football as you. Bazunu is statistically the worse keeper in year after year, get that in your thick head. Watch his positioning for the goal, he literally moves to his far post which means when the ball is headed the majority of the goal is to his left. If he was in the middle of the goal like any other half decent keeper he would have saved that. He has many many flaws, but his positioning is the biggest one. It looks like the new manager doesn’t want to play around at the back which is Bazunu’s only apparent strength. The guy is a worthless waste of space.

Marco Rose would be the one. 4 at the back, fast/direct football, would be respected having managed big teams and has worked with Spoors.
