Still can't get FA Player to work, what a load of pants.

1-1!! Go on girls!!

Might be a blessing in disguise that I couldn't get it working, United 1 up 8 minutes in.

Slight correction...only one of the goals yesterday was deflected.

Saints kick off against United in the FA cup at 14:00, big big test for them today. Be amazing to see them get to the final. Can't get FA Player working again, unsurprisingly. One of the worst services out there, honestly.

Not agreeing - he should have saved it! There was no deflection.

Sorry, buzzkill.

We can, but fuck em lets go for it anyway.

Yep, it will take a relentless effort but who's to say we won't go unbeaten the rest of the season now?

That record is massively skewed by those 4 defeats in september all against teams in the top half, who started well when we were still finding our feet.

Yep, I really like him. Think we're 2 or 3 years away from seeing the best of him as well which in all honesty just makes me even more excited to see what he can do.

If he was more clinical we might not have gone down last season. He's a good striker for this level, he'll miss some chances but he'll score a lot for us. Seems strange to want to drop our top goalscorer for a player who can create opportunities - opportunities for who? The less clinical players in the team?

He clearly can finish though. He missed one chance yesterday making a poor decision, but he's among the top scorers in the league for a reason.

I was quite impressed with him through the middle to be honest. Made excellent runs and yeah missed an easy chance but his movement was great.

Quotes doing the rounds from Charly saying that he's not happy with the asking price we've set and that it will be "difficult, but not impossible" to convince Juventus to sign him at that price. Surely that shows we value/rate him and Juve don't?

Hundred games, hundred games undefeated. Have we actually beaten the all time record now not just football league record?

The Rothwell one was superb but that Arma goal posted in the OP does epitomise what our style of play is about this season.

I never said that every goal we concede is his fault. I'm not even saying the first one is his fault. I'm saying that a professional goalkeeper should be doing better than he did when facing a shot that wasn't especially powerful, was well inside the post and went in under his arm.

Certainly starting to look like one who will quietly slip away to the continent to play out a career at a much slower pace somewhere. We may have pulled a blinder there. He was quite injury prone when with us wasn't he? I seem to remember him needing protecting a lot, coming off early etc.

Let's wait and see.

It used to be frustrating not being able to look up non-league scores at half time, but other than that I can't think of any other reason i'd be looking at my phone. I guess it would make goal updates from flashscores or whatever happen in real time rather than all come through in a rare moment of signal.

Good to see to be fair, although we'd have been cursing it if we'd gone into 13 minutes of injury time at 4-3.

Yep, him and the goalkeeping coaches will be looking at that come Monday, reviewing it and working out how he can do better in the future. Heaven forbid someone on here says he should have done better though.

By "some save" see "his arm 2 inches closer to the ground". It went in under him after bouncing before it reached him.

They're not struggling, they're 5 points behind Leverkusen who are still unbeaten this season. Scored 59 goals and got well over 2 points a game. To be honest I'll find it annoying it Bayern don't win the league because all the Arsenal morons I know will use it to gleefully exclaim that he's not a world class striker, when he clearly is.
