Saint Fan CaM

Really don’t want Liverpool so happy to lose now.

Found his level. Just like Stephens.

Resigned to losing this and I think the club were too if this is anything to go by. Reminds of our last month in the Prem and our bad run of four in the early part of this season. I hope for RMs sake this doesn’t affect the confidence in the first team.

At last some changes. Will this be enough? Doubt it.

Mara is soooo slow at reacting.

WTF was that from Alcarez? So rubbish.

Someone who’s not bombing the shit out of Ukraine?

We’ve not had one corner - that tells me we’re not attacking the bye line not nearly enough. Having said that, these players are so limited it’s no surprise Watford are bossing the game and comfortably sitting on a 1-0 lead.

Saintsplayer streams all gone down. 🙄 Back now. Keep it to 1-0 at HT.

Trouble is he’s seeing very little of the ball.

OMG…this side is so shite.

If we play for 180 minutes I don’t think we’d find a way to score. Watford look twice the team. Clearly we’re throwing this.

Fuck me, I knew Holgate was damaged goods but he really is shite. L1 material stealing a living at this level.

Many of these players not exactly pushing to get into RM’s plans for the first team. Mara just lost his man at their corner to give free header. Just gave up.

Mara really is playing above his station sometimes. Only rare flashes of decency, but mostly poor judgement and slow to everything.

Yeah, really bad decision by the Ref. And then that happens. 1-0 to the Ref.

Bednarek and Stephens together in a CB pairing will lose the game.

I remain convinced it’s not Stephens per se. It is the Stephens and Bednarek partnership that is a car crash waiting to happen. Don’t ask me why…I’ve not analysed it in depth, but to my eyes they get in each other’s way…take up the same space too many times and get caught out of position too many times, probably over compensating. Both players look MUCH better when playing alongside THB who is our best CB. Bednarek is slightly better than Stephens so makes sense to start him, but if THB comes off for Stephens as he did today, we’re likely going to see a cluster-fook of a defensive performance.

I don’t think it’s that simple. When Stephens plays with THB he’s better, but his pairing with Bednarek weakens the CB pairing too substantially to be viable. He’s not better than Bednarek and that’s why he’s not forced his way as a starter.

This is ending 3-3 right? 😉

Stephens and Bednarek are a totally unbalanced pairing - not a clue.

My word we have not learnt a lesson in how not to implode!

If Swansea score now it’ll be panic stations.

How the hell did Che miss that?!?! Edit - because the GK is superb!

Started second half slow and nearly paid the price there. Come on Saints.
