Saint Charlie

#stale 8 defeats in 10 for a team that struggles to score and concedes soft goals. A keeper that doesn't save shots, a replacement for our best player who cannot play a full match after 3 months of solid training. A Manager who tinkers and has been twice fed duff information that Palace play 4-4-2 causing him to play 3 centre backs. Negative media and players wanting out or showing poor discipline. Sounds that the Manager is frustrated with the clear lack of investment and poor academy options. But apart from that its good. And we are of course unique in the way we treat people. Relegation is possible unless we sort ourselves out. If we stay up next summer is huge because we ****ed the last one up and are paying for it. Losing habit ingrained and you can't be "unlucky" overall when losing 8 out of 10 games.

Jeez.

11 changes for Bournemouth who are winning at Birmingham. They are on a positive run and adding players. Will stay up easily I think. We are so stale.

No, but overall the last 10 games as a package of the season have been a ****ing disaster. If our form doesn't improve then we are in big trouble as losing has become a habit. Where we are now, results are a million miles more crucial than performances.

8 defeats in last 10 all the matters assuming we lose. You can't play well and lose that proportion of games.

Three months of fitness and 6 since he joined the club and still cannot play more than 75mins? That is poor. Also a limitation as basically takes away a substitution depending on the state of the game. From what we have seen so far the positives (some nice passes) don't really outweigh the physical negatives.

Or yours. [emoji38]

Clasie had to come off because he can't last a game after 3 months of being fit.

JWP on for Clasie in a min because we signed a player who can't play 90mins. Losing 2-1 surely you want the option of Seager?

Lets go again...

Getting towards Clasie sub time which is a shame because Seager could have been a good late option for Long.

Lets get JWP on then FFS!

Absolute bull****.

See previous post. Saying we have been ****e doesn't make you less of a fan. Weird.

Agree. Back 3/5 was a weird decision though as they only had one up front.

Over 10 games: absolutely ****e. Yes. But we have a chance to win this one.

Good work from Juanmi. Now lets win and get on a decent run with Pelle set to come back.

Get in!

This. Although he obviously wanted Clasie who just hasn't worked out. Especially as a replacement for our most key player.

Juanmi gets his chance, can he do anything?

I was at Norwich and their defence was poor. It was us rather than them that was the issue. You don't need to be so defensive when people criticise Saints. Its not because they don't support the club, its just because they are concerned. Its worse to pretend its not down to us that we have won 1 in 9. It is.

Delusional I'm afraid. Suppose its also quality attacking that makes us concede so many?

Stekelenburg, Martina, Yoshida, Targett, Romeu, Clasie, Long Thats 7/11 players that wouldn't have got near our best side the past two years. No wonder its a struggle.

If we lose it will be the 7th loss in the last 10 which is truely dreadful.
