Interested to know what reason was given for picking Long instead.

Beat me to it!

Interesting. Where does this info come from?

I am increasingly frustrated by RH, but maintain that the 'quality' of the coaching staff is really not EPL standard: nowhere near. Add in the poor quality of the squad and that's not an easy situation for any manager. Of course the buck stops with him, but can you expect to polish a turd if the cloth you're using is already covered in shit?

Add AArmstrong & Djenpo to the list.

Ahh. I hadn't seen that. Was that in his last game or training?

Can we just forefit the game? Really I see no point in it. Just want to get to end of the season, into the transfer window and see what our new overlords can do to create some optimism. Really getting jaded with things. But if we must play: Caballero KWP Stephens Lyanco Salisu Small Armstrong Romeu JWP Armstrong Adams

Is Perraud injured?

Yep. It's covered in white flags. (I think someone on her said that before in fact).

Will give a few of them the chance to say goodbye.

At last.

FFS. Make some changes. Have a go. At least fucking try!

Hello? Ralph? Those chaps sitting down behind you. The ones wearing football boots. You do know that you can let a few of them play, don't you?

No changes. WTFf?!

Romeu and AA for Moi and Tella at half time please.

Do we have any midfielders on the pitch today?

We're too damn passive. Need to get a grip.

That is world class. Great play from Lyanco to start it off. But Jesus: Redmond did brilliantly.

So is Perraud injured?

I picked the wrong time to give up drinking on weeknights.

Freeing up McCarthy to play as one of the 10s.

REALLY!!!? Hadn't seen this before. And Saints get shit for having a breather on 60 minutes?!

REALLY?! I'm working off memory: didn't fact-check. Isn't it crazy how the mind works. I'd have bet my house he was straight after Ronald. But damn: Les made some strange decisions.

"We need 9 substitutes".

I can see that, however: style of play: nothing suggested high-press, energy, progression. And following Koeman? When we were at the highest ebb we'd had in years? Did any of us, at the time say: "oh hell yes!"?
