He hasn't got 4 points, he's got 3. He had 6 straight defeats to start his tenure. The draw at Brighton was under Rusk. I think he's an extremely limited manager and is absolutely wedded to the 3 at the back nonsense.

It's official. Ali Dia > Tall Paul. How this guy plays professional football I'll never know. ABsolute rubbish.

Dear lord, this must be the worst Saints side of all time. And Juric is an absolute joke of a manager. Why bring on Lallana and not Dibling? F'in clown. I wish we'd stuck with Martin over this idiot.

Wow, every week I look at the team and subs and think "what a load of shite" but guess that is because our team and squad is utter shite. I hate this 3 at the back rubbish and Juric seems as bad, if not worse, than Martin. Absolutely wedded to a single system.

Big Les is a fraud of a footballer. Plays like he is in a constant daze. I hate this team - bottlers, no quality and a terrible, terrible manager who has no place managing our club. I have no idea what tactics he is employing and every team cuts through us with ease. 6 games, 6 defeats - another genius appointment

Adam Armstrong truly is an appalling player.

You're joking right? He's been utter shite and letting the game flow by him (with Aribo we may as well not have a central midfield)

100% this. Central midfield is non-existent. Newcastle strolled through there. Juric is as shit as Martin.....this formation is terrible. No chances for SAA, Ballard or others who could be important next year. The sooner this squad is dismantled and a new manager comes in the better. As I poseted on another thread, I'd welcome Selles back in a heartbeat next season. Our younger players might actually get a chance instead of the same old shit week in week out.

That is about the worst decision I have ever seen. VAR is an absolute disgrace and has no place in football. Never in a million years was that a penalty and taking that long to decide is not a clear and obvious error. Cannot wait until we are out of this shit league.

Flynn Downes, a Premiership footballer my arse. But then you could say that about pretty much every outfield player. Joke squad and I'd rather see the U21s play than this shower of shite

What a monumentally crap squad we have. That is absolute garbage

Although Fulham are down to 10 men, they have won their previous 5 straight and were in 2nd place

Dom Ballard with a hat trick! Surely he's worth a place on the bench at least...he knows where the goal is. His time at Blackpool was hampered by injury and Bruce playing him out on the wing. Hopefully will be a real asset to us in the Championship next season. I'd rather have him and SAA on the bench than Fraser, Sulemana or any of the other useless, failed players.

Sorry mate, but have to agree with Lighthouse. He's utter shite......I can't recall him winning a header or holding the ball up the last couple of games. His finishing is atrocious and, for his height, wins nothing in the air which is bizarre.

Keep on digging mate...... This is on Martin and SR. Are you saying we were doing well under Martin with our typical 0 shots on goal? YOu thought the SPurs result was acceptable? When you look at the Prem and you see the other teams (including Ipswich) playing at pace and then compare to our lot with their walking football under Martin and you thought that was OK?

Yes, worse than the 9-0s. In those games were down to 10. There was no excuse for yesterdays capitulation and 9-0 would not have flattered Brentford

Dare I say it...... Nest season in the CHampionship I woud have Selles back like a shot. He did incredibly well at Reading under terrible circumstances and is already turning Hull round. Someone who knows the club, isn't afraid to play younger players and could stabilize us. NO way do I think Juric is (or ever was) the answer. His teams have always played 3 at the back and he has no experience of the English leagues.

I just hope we send Cornet and Big Les back and get a striker and JWP in on loan.

This is the worst team I can ever remember. Even under Branfoot there was fight and tenacity (despite terrible players and management) - this lot have no fight, skill or anything of a positive note. Truly most of this squad can piss off - I'd rather youngsters like SAA, Bragg, Ballard and O'brien-Whitmarsh got an opportunity to learn over utter crap like Tall Paul, ARcher, Armstrong, Sulemana, Aribo, Bg Lesley

Blimey, how could I have forgot the 2 loan signings this season that are even worse then Brooks and Rothwell...... Cornet Big Lesley How is it even possible to get so many signings wrong.......putting on a blindfold and throwing darts at the wall would have a higher success rate!

THe guy is bloody useless. Never want to see him in a Saints shirt again. Simply strolled his way through the game yesterday, making mistake after mistake and jogging back as opposed to trying to fix his mistakes. Did CHelsea really pay 22 million for him?

If ever there was a damning indictment of our abominable transfer policy under SR, here it is. I make that around 35 signings (loan + permanent) and being generous (at best) there may be 4 or 5 possible decent buys amongst them. Our scouting team should all be fired - we'd have more success with MLG using CHampionship Manager! Absolutely staggering: putting a blindfold on and throwin darts at a wall to pick players would have more success than SR!!! And this is why we have several years of mediocrity ahead of us I think. I don;t have any confidence in SR getting ANY decision right, let alone recruitment. 2022/23 season Gavin Bazunu - could be decent in the future Mateusz Lis - never played for Saints Armel Bella-Kotchap - Tin Man from Wizard of Oz: no heart Roméo Lavia - hit Joe Aribo - very poor footballer with no pace Sékou Mara - not sure how he can be classed as a footballer Duje Ćaleta-Car - utter waste of money Samuel Edozie - utter waste of money Juan Larios - does he still exist? Mislav Oršić - utter waste of money Carlos Alcaraz - showed promise but dispatched by Martin as he was too much of a free spirit James Bree - poor Championship player Paul Onuachu - no comment! Kamaldeen Sulemana - utter waste of money 2023/24 season Flynn Downes - great Championship player but doubtful he is Prem quality Ryan Fraser - OK for CHampionship as an impact sub but never in a million years a Prem player any longer Mason Holgate - utter waste of space Taylor Harwood-Bellis - good Championship player but not yet Prem quality IMHO Joe Rothwell - awful! David Brooks - very poor Shea Charles - mixed first year, could be a good player for us next season in the Championship Ryan Manning - Championship player that barely played last season but looks one of our better players this season Joe Lumley - backup and not good enough Ross Stewart - why? 2024/25 season Adam Lallana - free transfer, low risk but always injured Charlie Taylor - cannot get a game even under the new management Ronnie Edwards - one for the future but seemingly miles away from being ready for the first team Nathan Wood - reasonable signing for the money but not a Prem quality player Yukinari Sugawara - a liability as a defender Ben Brereton Díaz - truly awful sigining Cameron Archer - signed after an underwhelming season with Sheff Utd and looking underwhelming again this season Juan - on loan at Goztepre and not tearing up any trees Mateus Fernandes - really good signing but likely here for 1 season Aaron Ramsdale - don't really understand the love-in. Good shot stopper but other factes of his game are not so good Welington - forgot we signed him. Hope he's not like Lyanco

Different manager, same shite. This is on SR with their terrible recruitment and waiting so long when it was clear Martin would not work out in the Prem. I think Saints will struggle in the Championship next season. Ramsdale, Fernandes and Dibling likely won;t be here next season and we'll be left with crap like Archer, Armstrong, Bree, Manning, Bednarek, Wood, BBD. I think everyone can agree Tall Paul is not our answer up front. While we lacked a focal point when he went off he was pretty dreadful when he was on.

Apart from the first 20 minutes this is as bad as anything Martin served up this season. Armstrong is stealing a living and playing 3 CBs is clearly not working. Bree is terrible - and somehow Sulemana gets another chance to show everyone just how bad he is.

Yet another one that posters seem to have developed a different view on since Martin left. Sulemana, bar one meaningless game, has shown absolutely nothing to suggest he is a decent player. Yes he's fast bu he has no footballing brain and always makes the wrong decision. Him and Tall Paul were terrible buys
