Mr X

I will get ripped apart but I'm sorry Russell Martin out this isn't going to work in the premier league

He done a job in the championship and the club should have known his limitations at a higher level. I think most of us knew his one way of playing wouldn't be well suited to the premier league!

Yup and so is our season as Martin isn't going to change

We need owners strong enough to say to Martin ditch the fucking around with the ball at the back or your gone..... It Isn't going to happen!

Is he in denial? everyone in the country can see our players aren't good enough to play it out from the back except him!

Agreed this is half the problem too! Stephens & smallbone should be nowhere near starting and AA isn't a premier league striker

100% we are going down if we don't either ditch this terrible style or the manager!

Fucking joke of a Style to play at this level we are not man city and Martin is too stubborn to change!

It's early days but if RM doesn't ditch playing out from the back we just as well not bother!

It was always coming

Same old story really too much messing around at the back and not posing any threat on goal!

We've been ok at times that's the annoying thing but then we shoot ourselves in the foot by insisting on dilly dalying in or own area!

Smallbone not up to it at this level

Football is a game of fine margins, why do we take such unnecessary risks in front of our own goal?

Jesus only a matter of time before we concede

Too true unfortunately

Stupid from THB

We are our own worst enemy with constant playing the ball around in front of our own goal

Much improved from the first 5 minutes!

Commentator: saints shouldn't the way they do too risky!

Disaster already!

Stephens what the actual fook

Think their strikers will prove to be too much but a lucky draw would be decent!

Can you ever convince a player to stay that doesn't want to be here and thinks he's too good for us?

He hasn't actually passed his medical yet has he? 😂
