You're entitled to your opinion, same as I am to mine. Mane was given a rough ride by many as was Tadic. Who's comparing Boufal to MLT? The point I was making is that the flair players drift in and out of games and today's fans will more often than not moan and whinge (as happened with both Tadic and Mane). SO you would rather see the sh**e that preceded Boufal coming on yesterday? When he came on it was exciting to watch with tricks, mistakes and flair - as opposed to the utter sh**e that preceded it that was one paced and predictable.

WHat utter s***e. Do you have an agenda? Bertrand was f*****g awful (again) and nearly cost us the game. Did you have your eyes shut when JWP was making tackle after tackle?

Spot on Shroppie. The haters hating on JWP: he was tenacious (yes he misplaced some passes but quite often no-one was showing for him so only pass was back) and in case anyone has forgotten - he has scored 4 of our Prem goals this season and him and Ings (6) are our only scorers of the last 10 Prem goals! Stephens has heart and was unfortunate for the first - Bertrand and Cedric were far, far worse than the 2 CBs today. I would happily see neither in a Saints shirt again although we are stuck with Bertrand. We are still an awful side but will enjoy the win!

LOL - beat me to it! I often wonder what many of our current fans would have made of MLT back in the day. Like Boufal, outrageously talented and mercurial but an absolute joy to watch. Someone you would pay money to see. Only Djenepo and Boufal could you say that about in our current squad.

Nuff said. With Djenepo he looks a constant threat - Redmond has been gash this season and does not deserve to start IMO.

Boufal, Djenepo, JWP (yes JWP), Ings were our stand out players. The rest (bar McCarthy) can all go screw themselves. Utter gash - back 4, PEH, Obafemi, Redmond were terrible. Cedric should never play for Saints again, the little scrote.

OMG - what a let off. Djenepo's assist should have been called for a handball! Ugly, ugly win but what a vital 3 points. Got to improve

Brilliant by Djenepo - him and Ings the only genuine PL players we have, possibly Boufal too

Shane Long - the answer to a question that should never be asked!

Bravo Ralph - you tactical genius. Take off a RB and replace with a RB. Yet another like for like and no change of tactics. Cedric should never play for Saints again.

Fixed it for you

Boufal on for starters.....

Bravo Ralph - no changes at HT. Lets wait until 75 minutes shall we?

I would say JWP is our only player that is working really hard and trying to make a difference. PEH is total s***e and how could top clubs in Europe be looking at him. He's terrible Cedirc and Bertrand awful. Stephens and Bednarek nervous as hell, Djnepo not a factor, Redmond back to the headless chicken (reminding me so much of Fabrice Fernandes who was also great at creating crop circles). Ings and Obafemi zero service. PLease being on Boufal at HT.

That was completely on Bertrand (again). Out of position, played ball directly into path of Watford.

Bertrand - you bloody utter waste of space. What idiot thought it a good idea to keep that t**t and get rid of Targett? Can only imagine what the reaction will be at HT.

And where was Bertrand? No mans land and certainly not defending. Saints are utter dog s***e and are deservedly going down. We are an embarrassment and are a mess from the top of the club down.

Bertrand having another absolute mare. Our CBs get slated, not always wrongly, but our full backs are absolutely terrible. Accidents waiting to happen and living off of past glories

I hate Cedric - utter garbage and massively overrated. Nearly cost us from the get go. How could Saints play so well against Arsenal away then look utterly terrible again at home the next week?

Can't help thinking that Ralph's latest slagging off of Obafemi is terrible man management. He played really well against Arsenal and caused all sorts of problems yet Ralph now comes out and slams his professionalism. Way to build up a youngster Ralph! Keep this sort of stuff behind closed doors - I really think Ralph believes he is a lot smarter than he really is. Plenty of head scratching moments this season. SO does this mean the prolific Long will start ahead of Obafemi against Watford?

What an utterly daft remark. If you had seen the game you would have more confidence. We were anything but s**t in the game yesterday and play like that we'll be fine. 2 for the forum whipping boys were excellent (JWP and Stephen). Would like to see more of Boufal and Djnepo together: they look so dangerous. And a shout out to 2 of the players that get a lot of love on here: PEH and Cedric. Both were utterly terrible and PEH is about 5 seconds of thought too slow for the Prem.

Proud of that performance. Of course we should have won but that performance was light years ahead of anything we have seen this season. We can't miss chances like we did - Cedric is f***** terrible. That equalizer was on him. As ever he's too busy watching the player with the ball as opposed to his positioning and defending. Sooner he f*** off the better, preening little p****

Crystal clear foul. Not sure what there is to be upset about with that decision

Usual scapegoats getting grief (Stephens and JWP) but both have been good. IN Stephens case, very good. Very unSaints like that half - we actually looked dangerous (Still super dodgy at the back) and a team. Obafemi creating problems with his pace. Hojberg is absolutely dreadful and Redmond has reverted back to type unfortunately. Played very well and glad we're giving it a go as opposed to the ultra defensive lineups we have seen in recent times

My god, Hojberg is stealing a living as a footballer. Absolutely dreadful player. Still he thumps his chest well and makes good soundbites.
