Bloody hell, I thought it was just a light show this evening 😉

I know we’re all entitled to an opinion but fuck me we couldn’t be seeing things more differently if we tried.

Yeah, Mara was really shit when he came off the bench against Huddersfield with the score at 3-3, he should've provided so much more than a goal and an assist.

Agreed on Mara, no reason to drop him after his performance on Friday.

March and April can do very funny things to league leaders, Leicester wouldn’t be the first team to lose a seemingly unassailable lead in February. Anyway, control the controllables and all that.

I’ve found Rosa Parks

My youngest son’s team would’ve scored that first goal given that amount of space and piss poor effort to stop the goal.

A very fucking sweet 3 points tonight

3 or 4 at the back? Or the option to mix it up? Interesting.

A draw would be a great result tonight. Come on you Saints!!

So unsuccessful that only Man Utd would be interested in our Jase...🙄

This type of what-iffery could be applied to every decision made. I don't recall many complaining at the time that selling Tella for £25m was going to be the difference between promotion or not.

I’m hopeful for a much improved performance.

Agreed that our build up play through the first two thirds, where a 6 is influential, was not at its usual high standard but we were also below par in the final third; can’t remember us looking that poor up top for a while. The performance worried me but given what we’ve seen since October up to Huddersfield I’d back the team to bounce back.

I’m not certain that had Downes played on Tuesday that all would’ve been well. He’s clearly a top player for us but so many of those that started and came on were off their game. No doubt the staff know of many formations that they could switch to but for me we gave the ball away too easily in situations you’d expect us to retain control, that was apparent all over the pitch.

With one day to implement before our next match? No.

Not sufficient time to change formation, not that I would advocate that anyway. The Brizzle game we didn't control the midfield, we can put that down to key players missing, new players involved, strong game by our opponent. We have to look after the ball so much better than we did last night.

Without doubt we have the talent needed to win every game in this league, doesn’t mean we will. We give ourselves the best opportunity of winning by working hard and controlling the game. City will be a fight, I think they will come at us hard from the start but I’m confident the 3 points will be ours. 0-2 Up the fucking Saints!!!

Yep, there are certain similarities with JT but I hope to god THB ends up being, dare I say it, less of a cunt.

No

Ferguson was ready, physically ahead of his age, he had a great start to his career but his form has dipped, as you would expect. Hinshelwood was forced on RDZ, he literally had no other options but to give him a chance, I'm fairly certain he's playing out of position at RB too, fair play to him though he's been good for them.

Indeed and no doubt some of the youngsters will get more game time this Sunday, in a lower priority game, as it should be.

🥱

Nice selection, sir. As we seem to be ignoring cup games, which Championship matches would you have played our academy prospects in?

Or...it's been obvious for a while that KD's intention is to move on. It's his decision.
