Today was pretty inept, on the bright side, Kyle Walker-Peters returning will make a big difference. Not having an attacking right-back alters the style of play and build-up. It is limiting Saints as an attacking force and hindering the high press down the right side.

That was clearly the Man Utd game. Sure not beating 10 then 9 men today is disappointing but that occasionally happens and you can't break a team down. Losing 9-0 should be an extremely rare event for any professional team.

The large amount standing water on the pitch made it difficult for it to be anything other than that.

In the cup game or the league game... or both?

What are you on about?

Sadly you remain the same.

Every player bar the goalkeeper is marked at some point during the match. Some situations they are instructed to mark for and others not. It is rare to be properly 'man marked' for an entire game in modern football. In any case the style of our pressing play means players are quickly closed down.

He doesn't play as an attacking fullback.

Of course it is a mistake by the BBC, don't worry. We won't be playing a 6 foot 7 centre back as an attacking fullback.

Mark them in what situations?

It isn't really any more or less attack minded than Hasenhuttl ever plays in the 4222 formation. Bar missing Walker-Peters being more attacking than Stephens at right back.

Gecko Saint has been experimenting again...

Where would you expect to see real hype? Why would you ignore those that are part of the first team? That seems flawed if you ignore the successes.

It does as if they were shifting players due to money problems as you claimed, they then wouldn't sign a more expensive player on loan.

According to this we are...

We signed a player on a bigger wage plus loan fee than those that left in the transfer window.

Newcastle's analysts have footage of 150+ games of him in European football to know what he is like.

Why does him stepping down make it more or less likely? He could own a club both at Amazon and not at Amazon.

Fialka hasn't been able to do something like buy a top flight French team.

No, as Bednarek's red card has been rescinded for not being a foul and there was no chance Jankewitz was going to have his rescinded.

Of course it means something. If you have 29 points at this stage of the season it is easier to get to 50+ points than it is if you only have 14 points. Plus calling me 'nipper'! Really? 😁
