Pretty solid display - but won;t play many worse teams than Fulham. Salisu, Tella, JWP, Adams all excellent. Felt Minamino and Redmond were very poor: both are very slow thinkers and the game is too quick for them. Minamino is just not suited to the PL. Loved Tella's enthusiasm and beaming smile!

What is to be lost by trying the lad out properly now? He looked very promising in his sub appearances - certainly far more about him than some of the other youngsters that have played.

Utter waste of space - just like Theo

Yep, he stood still for the penalty and it hit him. He is a far superior keeper to McCarthy and back in form. Really pleased for the big guy

Bloody hell, Bednarek is awful. Shame on Ralph for continuing to play the same rubbish week in week out. Absolute garbage this is. We are stuffed next season - this is as bad a squad as we have had for years. And the manager is pony too.

He's simply not a good manager over an extended period of time. One trick pony

What on earth does the lad need to do to start. Diallo has been awful recently

Please do not give either Walcott or Bertrand a new contract. neither are good enough

Never a penalty

WTF was that substitution from Saints about? They look all over the place and what sort of s**te attempt at a save from Macarthy was that?

No Bertrand? He looks like a player that can be a nuisance when things are not going well but all brightness and light when things are going well.

Where was this performance on Sunday?

Wow, just wow! Hoping for the best and expecting the worst. Assume Salisu at LB unless he is going 3 at the back. They should waltz through the middle of the park - Armstrong is an attacking midfielder not a holding midfielder. Do not understand the recall for Macarthy at all.....Forster has actually done nothing wrong.

You do understand the irony of what you have just posted don't you? Teams forming new League bad but OK to pillage other Leagues to invite them into the Premier league. And the difference is what exactly?

Honestly, living here in the US I think you may have miscalculated (as have some of the owners of the 'Big 6') the American view on this. Kroenke is a piece of scum and moved the Rams from St Louis to LA without a moments thought - the American view on sports is very different and all franchise based without any promotion/relegation considerations. It works in the US context because of College drafts (baseball, ice hockey, NFL, MLS and other sports all operate this way) and without the concept of transfer fees (typically trading players for draft picks, etc) and with salary caps. What these pieces of s**t are talking about is nothing more than a money grab. As for the comments about "legacy fans" - that sums them up and how badly they have miscalculated the reaction. They might not care now but the plastic fans won't hang around when "their" team does badly and we already know what the endgame for these c**ts is: lots of games in the Far East and the US to maximize the amount of money they can make. Diabolical and hope the UK Government puts paid to this.

Good day for the scum Levy to bury bad news eh? Rotten club. Spurs and Arsenal "Super League" material my arse. All about the money

Just like the players, couldn't give a toss and no interest in the rest of the season

Suggest a bit of both. No way should Bertrand or Walcott get new contracts - I think we are stuck with Ralph as we can't afford to get rid of him. But Saints are a shambles and, like previous comments, I fear for next season

No Plan B, timid, pathetic performances and today was the final straw. No ambition, attacking intent and cowardly.

How is this any different from the Pellegrino/Hughes era? I actually think they had more fight then than they do now. Abject, pathetic performance and if Bertrand, Redmond and Walcott never pulled on a Saints shirt again I'd be happy. Also be quite happy if Ralph leaves in the summer - he really doesn't seem to have a clue

Our Plan B has them really worried. Ralph knows how to mix it up and react to the opposition. Actually, I can see why he runs out of steam at every club around this time. Absolutely no way of adapting to the opposition or using new tactics. So one dimensional and we were worked out months ago yet the system has remained the same. SO much for the team being up for this game. Going out with a whimper and not a single shot on target.

Spineless, gutless performance from a very poor team and a very poor manager. They can all fuck right off

Gotta have a shot on target first.....

F****** disgraceful performance. Hassenhuttl is not the manager for Saints. He is out of ideas and this timid, scared performance sums us up

Terrible performance. Like watching 11 statues. Cowardly performance....not a single shot, or even close to a shot. No evidence of desire or hunger out there. Bertrand, Diablo, Redmond all terrible that half
