Funny you didn't make an appearance in the Arsenal thread in midweek eh? Did your son accidentally spill his cola on your keyboard?

Are you a bit simple or only 9 or something?

Grow up!

Too many on here are loving this. It's pathetic to see. Grow the **** up!

Hold on, isn this the "strongest 11" you were screaming for before the Arsenal game?

Damn. It happens I guess. C'mon Saints get it back!

That was exquisite by Boufal shame it didn't sit up for a better shot.

I know Alec but they don't make mangers in your mould anymore...

Tick

Boufal looks lively!

COYS!

Default Don't forget, it's not the lineup that matters but how many changes Claude makes. He's done it again! Poor Claude, while the rest of us are opening up our advent calendars and getting chocolate angels and bells, Claude's is counting down to his inevitable sacking on Christmas Day. For the love of baby Jesus Claude, you gotta pick our strongest 11 every game, simple as that, these guys aren't playing tennis.

Good post. The way I see it, there's nothing wrong with being negative, critical of tactics, players, team selection etc. and expressing that on the forum. The problem is when certain posters go on and on with the same rhetoric and then disappear when proved wrong. You don't have to be the most optimistic about Saints chances in certain games but at least will wait until a ball has been kicked before throwing the toys out of the pram. I know some on here, do it just for the bites but others must be a nightmare to live with if they act this way in real life (i.e. at the game and not on the internet). These would be terrible people to be around in a crisis, panicking and throwing the towel in at the first sign of adversity. The biggest thing is that you never see certain posters on here celebrating after a win. Why is that? Why do they clog the board with doom and gloom after a defeat but don't post after a win? Surely if they wanted Saints to win and were genuine supporters they'd do both in equal measures?

With the JRod gamble not looking to have paid off perhaps we should take another look at Haller?

Nah, hope we put out the strongest team possible vs non-league, just to see the cvnts on here go into a meltdown to end all meltdowns...

I oh I did, pal.

So will all the forum experts who were whining about the team selection be posting their apologies to Puel and the boys? Don't suppose we'll get a peep out of Alpine either...

All good points there. If we could get one or a couple of strikers on song we could get plenty of points in December (for a nice change).

I guess Boufal must have a big role to play on Saturday then.

Long needs one to go in off his arse. His confidence is at rock bottom...

I guess 1-1 is technically a cricket score...

2-0 up at Arsenal and your two posts are trashing Long? Cheer up!

I liked the cherry-picked stats: "Now if you compare us with Stoke over the last 4.5 games..."
