Woeful today. Vestergaard is a disgrace - switched off so many times it was untrue. Lemina and Romeu OK, Hojberg was garbage and can't pass for toffee. Will get shouted down but thought we looked much better with Stephens and JWp on the pitch. They showed they cared and JWP created more in his cameo than Hojberg or Armstrong did the whole game. We need players who will stand up and be counted: they may not be world beaters but JWP, Stephens and some of the younger players will stand up. Utterly dreadful and no idea how Ralph will keep this shower of s**e up.

Err.....we'll be cut adrift by January. This squad is just not good enough and don't see any way out of this mess. Rebuild next year in the CHampionship - we are not staying up.

What passing - that goal was all started from a terrible piece of play from Armstrong. Bring back Reed, play the younger players. This has been yet another terrible performance with no redeeming features except from Lemina, Romeu, McCarthy, Bednarek and Stephens. Rest have been awful - absolutely awful: can't pass, can't tackle, can't defend. New man has his work cut out

WTF Vesergaard - never want to see this pr**k in a Saints jersey again. Unbelievable - a 10 year old would have done better

Goodbye dinosuar - you will not be missed in any way. Dreadful manager, coach and miserable, dour personality and always keen to pass the buck. Absolute charlatan that hopefully we never have to hear from again.

For the first time in a very long time I am genuinely excited by the next few months. The dinosaur has gone - what an unmitigated disaster and whoever game him a 3 year contract wants their head examined - and we may finally getting back to where we thrived with a progressive coach. Saying Pellegrino was going to be attacking, play the press, etc was obvious spin as anyone with half a brain could see there was absolutely nothing in his CV that showed any sign of the sort. It was a desperation hire: having said that Hughes made him seem a lot less worse than he really was!

HUGHES OUT ........ bloody dinosaur who has not gotten a clue.

TBF....Obafemi has done more in 8 minutes than Austin has all season.

Obafemi plays a lovely ball into Moi .... who had completely stopped

Moi really is sh**e isn't he?

Indeed - but you could level the same concerns about fitness to those that play 90 minutes regularly

Armstrong off....wtf. Hughes is beyond belief! Hope he is gone before the weekend is out.

Yes.....pace on the bench and he brings on another s***e summer signing that has been terrible

WTF....Elyounassi on and Austin off. Turd midfielder for turd striker and Obafemi still on the bench.

F*****g Hoedt. Just put the ball out you useless t**T. Then Yoshi weak and Cedric out of position again. But all Hoedt needed to do was put the bloody ball out.

Absolute screamer from Armstrong! Have to get a dig in though.....who has been ignored all season by Hughes

Great ball in from Targett and Hoedt with a fantastic defensive header. Only way back in is to get that lump of t**d Austin off and inject some pace and movement into our play. So, so predictable and awful to watch.

Just get this w******r out of our club and take bloody Cedric with him

So Shroppie (genuine question and not a dig) - do you think what we see every week from this team and manager is acceptable? It's so predictable and the outcome is clear from the get go. When they play at a tempo they look OK - problem is that this is only ever for 20 minutes or so a game.

Hughes has had over 6 months with this team and the defence has regressed beyond belief and continues to do so. What the heck do they do on the training ground day in day out? Go 1-0 up and any intensity goes out of our play and then we always concede because we let the other team back in....Brighton, Fulham, etc, etc. He really is a useless t**t of a manager

Bizarre.......Hughes is terrible. Two bright spots today were Gabi and Yoshi.....both who this t**t of a manager has ignored all season. Bringing on Obafemi with 1 minute left - wtf? Players unfit - who should take the blame for that? Lack of tactics and setup - who should take the blame for that?

WTF has Stephens done to deserve being dropped (again!). This c**t of a manager makes me want to throw up. HUGHES OUT

Better than most fo the pile of s**e out there. ANd expecting someone who hasn't been picked for ages to come in and be a game changer is laughable. Leaving Long on who has been worse than abysmal is even more laughable

Mush - you're the f***** disgrace with your tiresome trolling. You should have been banned years ago.

Cedric - terrible for the goal. Bertrand - terrible for the goal. Utter joke and we are absolutely doomed this season without a massive change. STarting with Hughes.
