Not an inspiring line up, but these are the guys Selles trusts, and he has options on the bench. On paper West Ham should win, but we know how their fans can get, there's more pressure on them. Lose and it's all over as we're not getting anything next week. A draw probably isn't enough, but a win would be absolutely huge. For me this is undoubtedly our biggest and most important game since Swansea away. These players need to understand that and play like their lives depend on it. It's difficult to see us winning, heart says 1-0 Saints, head says 3-0 West Ham.

yes. Back in the day at the Dell we always seemed to have a fighting spirit, and always had a chance of a result against any team at home, despite regularly only winning 1 or 2 away games every season. Our current side has been poor for so long, and no team fears coming to St. Marys.Whilst there's been improvement under Selles, it would be a miracle if we can get 4/5 wins out of our remaining games. I'm almost certain we will just fall short though.

can't be worrying too much about other teams' results. There's 8 involved so they can't all get beat every week. We need to get our own results. Lose tomorrow and it would appear to be game over.
-
'But it's still close, we've still got 11 games' We've had 27 games and scored 20 goals. This team does not and will not score enough goals to keep us in this league. It's game over now, we won't have enough to beat Spurs or West Ham, and I would expect a 6-7 point gap to have opened by then. And still people will cling on thinking we might just win 4 on the bounce. Sorry, it's not happening. I feel for Selles as he's given it a go, but it's all too late now.

I don't know how we are still in this after being so poor for such a prolonged period. Still seems a tall order to survive, we are going to have to maintain the form we are in under Selles for the rest of the season. Obviously having Jones in is the disaster in all this, having said that if we'd have beaten Wolves he'd have been given more time. I think we will just fall short, unless we can scrape a few more 1-0 wins together.
-
nervous for this one, with Leeds being just above us this is our biggest game in nearly 6 years. Tall Paul 1-0 Saints
-
this is it. We've won 4 games in 22, even if Marsch improves us I just can't see how it will be to any level where we win nearly half of our games. So I'm not really buying the 'still 16 games, it's not over' argument. We've just had our 'winnable' run of fixtures and it's been a disaster. Are we now going to get a few wins and a couple of draws against top 8 teams?
-
Whoever comes in will likely need to win half of their league games for us to stay up on 39 points.Whilst there is some promise in this squad, we've just had our run of 'winnable' games, it's not happening. Looks like Marsch is a done deal, but big pressure to get us out the Championship next season.
-
If Ankersen is so into his stats, what does 6 defeats from 7 in the league look like to him? does that score well on the metrics? or is Lyanco's 2.83 aggressive stares per game more indicative of Jones' qualities?
-
watch plenty of Bristol City as live there, Semenyo is the Ghanaian Che Adams. He is not the answer to our goalscoring issues

Southampton 0-1 Newcastle League Cup Semi Final 1st Leg
Saint_Tony replied to Saint_clark's topic in The Saints
just hanging in there. Newcastle are bigger, quicker and stronger; they look a proper team. Luckily their better opportunities have fallen to Willock. -
tough one to take, but if we can't get a result when we play like this, then there's no hope. Season over unfortunately.
-
West Ham 2-0 down. Incredibly only have 2 more points than us, and have also scored 1 less goal. Highly unlikely, but if we won tomorrow and go above them, that could be the end for Moyes.
-
only manage who's going to get results with a forward line as direvas ours is Sean Dyche
-
all falling apart early.on. Clearly we won't be getting a striker in, and will still be left with Walcott and Redmond
-
Gakpo deal off. Good start to the day. Hopefully we have someone lined up who's gone under the radar.
-
what about signing a striker though,??
-
does Ayoze Perez ever play/score against any other team other than us?
-
hoping this is one where we slag off the starting line up enough and Ralph being clueless, that we might actually win. But another uninspiring line up
-
brilliant signing. Another one for the creche, we'll have to hire an additional babysitting assistant soon.
-
Sponsor looks shit, as with most shirts, but it's different and fresh. Best home shirt in years
-
why is it we always seem to be one of the last teams to release our kits? seems to have happened a lot in recent years, even with different suppliers
-
early goal for Chelsea. That should just about seal our safety😉
-
great result, commentators dont seem to be making much of it; its an absolutely massive 2 points dropped there. The greatest club side the world has ever seen at least wont be winning the league.
-
not looking good for Leeds now, think Everton will survive. Are we actually being talked about as relegation candidates?
