Without a coherent strategy and way better recruitment they may as well get Jimmy Twizzle.

This simply isn’t true. This reads like you don’t attend matches. If you do, I don’t know what you’re hearing or seeing.

That’s how I saw it yesterday. He’s recognisably a centre forward, something we’ve lacked. He’s rusty. I’m expecting him to improve.

They’re Chelsea fans. Inveterate moaners. He’s a very good footballer.

I wish I had your optimism.

Well that’s a relief. It’s the hope that kills you.

They did.

I too thought he came across well. I enjoyed hearing what he had to say. He talks a good game and knows how to communicate. He’d make a great pundit. I do wonder what might have been achieved with better players. On the other hand you could say that with any system.

I’ve watched them on tv quite a bit this season. They are indeed shit. But saints have to get rid of the wobblers or we’ll get turned over.

To the best of my recollection Sugawara failed to block a single cross today.

He looks very grumpy. I like that.

That second united goal. Lurch swang his size thirteen like he was kicking a flat tyre. Spurs. They sing our song. They buy our duds. They copy our tactics. What do they expect. They can have macarthy. He can do everything Forster can do, and more.

With hindsight, could argue that Saints might have done first half what they did second half and played more aggressively further up the pitch. That was a makeshift Liverpool defence with a couple of kids in midfield.

For somebody who couldn’t see the arm across Fernandes, the referee seemed pretty certain it wasn’t a foul. Take a look at his theatrical reaction to the claim. If he didn’t see it he couldn’t be so certain there was no foul. If he did see it then he must have thought it was not enough to give a foul and send the bloke off. He got it badly wrong. Then there’s the assistant. What’s the point of him if he won’t assist the referee in making the right the call.
