Fecking shambles... we go from an attacking position to going backwards and get over because of it!!! These players need to stand up because it’s gutless!!!!

I’d go 4-3-3 due to our fullbacks getting nowhere near the byline recently. Attempt to domin the middle of the park a bit more.

Sorry mate but your are are deluded.. who else is going to get a better tune of if this squad. We’ve generally been really good over the last year and only a disastrous run of injuries has knocked us back!! I agree with the comments about Semmens..

I really think Ralph with walk at the end of the season .. he’s obviously frustrated with what’s he’s got to work with and who could blame him. Until the prick gao sells out we are where we are. Thankfully we’ve got a decent points return this far. But we must live in hope that when our injuries clear up we have a decent team and we’ve the ability to climb again.

Squad depth getting a bit found out tonight. Walcott, bambi on ice comes to mind and valery will never be good enough.. Armstrong best player in a saints shirt

To be fair that was a banana skin avoided in fairly comfortable style. Don’t really think it’s fair to judge any of those academy players in their first performance and no doubt very nervous. But they showed the difference in levels between league 1 and the premier league. jwp totally controlled that game abd is looking better by the day.. if Southgate picks winks over him then he’s clueless. As someone else said, no injuries either. Happy with that.

Armstrong should have been on at half time and when you need a goal you throw on the prolific Shane long. West Hams bench looked so much better than ours. Great start to the season but we look fooked now..

Jeez.. you’re sounding like an entitled arsenal fan!!!

Not sure what half of you expect? And a reality check I think. It’s obvious our squad isn’t deep enough to sustain us in the top six. We are good, very good at present and it’s a well earned point, could have been three. When you get upset about that game maybe think back to life under puel and pellegrino.. honestly some of you need your head examined.

Play a high line when you have quick central defenders. We’ve got no pace and it’s so obvious. What are you thinking Ralph? Now smallbone and tella as our go to replacements, we’ve got a dreadful bench. . What is going on between the ears of our director of football who needs sacking!!! Shambles from top to bottom.

Smallbone as last season anonymous

Should give all those who’ve already purchased one a replacement for free...

His position was wrong, if Arsenal were in possession of the ball. But they weren’t.

Pretty abysmal really and no tempo to our play so think we need long on. I’m amazed how often valery is out of position and the amount of times he ball watches. But what was McCarthy up to?? Jeez Arsenal pretty ordinary so still a chance.

I really can’t see this season being completed. Null and void. - league positions as are, nobody relegated. - top 2 teams in championship, L1,L2 and national league promoted.But not as champions, no trophies. - leagues have extra 2 teams but 4 go down following season for 2 seasons.

Sorted

They should do a price for life... whatever you pay shouldn’t ever go up unless you fail to renew. But to be honest club have lost touch with fan base. Why not give those who’ve had their ticket for more than 10 years a decent discount?

I said to the wife about 20 mins before half time that if we managed to get through the 1st period we’d have a chance.. amazing whAt some pace can do and Sims added it. In fact Sims did more in 45 mins that elynoussi has done all season. Crazy celebrations when that free kick went in and at the end of the match.

He’s seemed to have found some pace......

Jesus, that shootout was shocking! My preference would be for a 20 minute long light show prior to the match infused with some banging trance music!! I’ll even offer my services to sort the playlist.... who the hell chose the music on Wednesday?? Terrible.

Nearly spat my tea out on hearing that about Ely.... what the hell was les thinking. Decent win tonight and much needed. Difference in class between Bertrand and target. But really concerned about the rest of the season with an attack so toothless.

Blame Ralph, blame individuals but nothing will change next season if we somehow survive this. The biggest issue at the club is the shambles that is our owner, our board and our abysmal transfer policy. Gao will only invest from revenue generated by player sales so basically he’s skint... I foresee a Blackburn situation.

Can’t defend can’t score... shambles. The longer gao stays the worse it’s going to get. Need to get rid of the ****.

He’s going to ruin this club..... I have a bad feeling about him. Blackburn and the venkis comes to mind. Does anyone on this forum actually have any confidence with him at the helm.

Need to get this ***** out of our club...
