That looked close.

Saints are going to need to see a pick in performances and results by early January if we're going to see any flicker of interest from a decent goalscorer. Fail to get something from BHA, Fulham & Forest and we'll be looking into a long, dark tunnel.

Better 2nd half. If Saints could have tucked away one of those chances it might have been interesting. Bottom two at Christmas though. Jones has a job on his hands.

Their 'keeper is keeping Liverpool in this.

Two great chances missed again.

Complete lack of composure by AA.

It'd be interesting to hear the Jones half time reaction to that display.

Too easy fro Liverpool

Don't concede another before half time and take it from there. That's about all I can hope for at the moment.

Just get rid of it. Had enough chances to clear it.

Adams scores!!

'Keeper really should be saving that.

Yellow card and a goal down already. Dear oh dear.

I'd have thought that JWP's indifferent displays this season would have been just fine for this England side. Backwards, sidewards, slow, slower build up. I'll not be watching any of the Qatar corrupt circus anyway but have to feel a bit sorry for the lad not to have made it. His poor form made Southgate's big boy team players preferences just a bit easier though. I suspect JWP will be off to pastures new before long.

Had social media been around in 1973 I wonder whether Lawrie would also have received the thumbs down.

It'd probably be a big ask and a big wedge to get a top manager to come to Saints at the moment anyway. I'll give the new man, whoever it might be, at least a few games before calling for them to be sacked. 🙄

Someone said that Saints defence was much improved. Not on that performance. Even so, we witnessed the usual glaring misses in attack so 1-4 it is.

Stick Perraud up front .... oh, maybe not.

Oh FFS!

Goal! Perraud shows 'em how to do it.

Saints just have no idea at all in the attacking third. Slow. No penetration. When chances do arrive there's no composure. Unless that changes relegation will be the result.

The difference in this game is one team is taking their chances.

That's what a striker does for you.

Adams misses another sitter

JWP's corners and free kicks looking less than dangerous again.
