Danso stupid.

Clear chance for Adams - panic! Miss!

Our passing is abysmal.

Saints have managed to get into some reasonable attacking positions but it's as if some sort of panic takes over when calmness of thought and a modicum of skill is required.

Important that we don't concede another on the stroke of half time. Or at any time really

Another good attacking situation where panic seems to set in.

Well we looked ok for the first 5 minutes or so. Since then we've been pretty much overrun.

PEH having another 'mare.

An easy stroll into the Saints penalty area and then pick your spot. Oh so typical!

A welcome 3 points but that was not a very good performance. A moment of pace and magic was the highlight but let's not gloss over the fact that Saints were ponderous and fortunate not to be playing against 11. Defence always looked like it was about to concede as usual. Even so, let's hope that is a confidence boost.

Saints plan is obviously to hang on to 1-0 against 10 men. With our defence that's very dodgy.

Looks more as if it's Saints that have 10 men.

I'd get JWP off. He's a candidate for a 2nd yellow.

My suggestion? Replace JWP before he gets a 2nd yellow. Far too ponderous in attack. Why so many misplaced passes?

That was a dreadful tackle. Well deserved red card. Can Saints take advantage?

It's worrying that we're still pretty clueless in the attacking third. Given that the defence can be guaranteed to screw up at least once it's hard to see where points are going to come from.

Defensive errors and lack of ideas up front make for a tricky season. Hope it gets sorted.

Probably the only way we were going to score. Can we get another one?

Why even try passing out of defence if the players aren't up to it?

Another stupid defensive error.

Saints just seem to run out of ideas in the attacking third.

Men against boys at the moment. Liverpool players noticeably quicker in every respect.

Romeo will be off one way or another.

Unlucky to be 1 down but if you give Mane the freedom to wander where he wants in the penalty area then that's what'll happen.
