And that, in a nutshell, is why for what seems like years and years now we are stuck with a bloated squad full of mediocre shite that is overpaid and nobody wants. How much longer are we going to be caught in this groundhog day situation ffs ?

Lost interest, we’ve been played, fuck him basically 🤣

To be fair you aren’t renowned for your sense of humour !

Or his hands are tied because Downs and Stewart are both out.

Thats a relief.......well not that they are ill obviously......

No Stewart, no Downs and presumably Armstrong through the middle again !

Yeah I don't really get that. But hey he took Rothwell up there and he was basically a bench warmer when we had him.

Jamie Redknapp steals a bloody living simply cos of who is old man is. To me he makes Clinton Morrison sound intelligent.

If you want a laugh just type Russell Martin into the search on X and go to latest posts tab 🤣

Anybody left still wishing we’d gotten him as manager?

I think the Cherry pips have a few injuries in midfield - Klivert and Christie to name two - so he's probably not in as first choice pick.

Just signed McAtee from Man City as well !!

or indeed ending up at West Ham of all places

I actually thought better of Dawson but hey, he's a Sky employee now and when you become one you cut your balls off and fawn and pander to the big clubs cos thats all they are interested in. How dare a club want a fair amount for their young talented players. Prick.

In all seriousness if it goes tits up at Rangers its hard to see where he goes from there. Championship at best I suppose !

Some guy on Sky Sports a few minutes ago, didn’t catch his name, was doing his best to defend him. Needs time, patience from fans blah blah blah

I must admit I thought that might well happen.

Yeah of course most people would.......but if you thought you could do even better in a years time would the decision be so simple ?

100% and to be fair many pundits NOT associated with Saints have also said he would be better off spending a season tearing up the Championship and then seeing where we are in 12 months time. But for a young lad, well most people tbf, money talks and I reckon its screaming at Tyler and his family right now.

It must be devastating when a dream move to Everton looks like its slipping away.

To be fair Russell Martin knew Armstrong had to be played out wide, even he worked out he wasn't any good in the middle. WBA found that out too during that loan spell last season. I was amazed WS played him through the middle but if he wants wingers then that wide role isnt available to Armstrong I suppose. He's not a target man for how Still wants to play and that, for manager and player, is the problem.

Nope.

To be fair he was good today.

The only thing I couldn’t understand was why, given Still likes crosses into the box as much as possible we had two of Snow White’s seven dwarfs in Fraser and Armstrong through the middle. No height whatsoever. I did think in fairness to Fraser he had a good game

Whilst I agree with you Tyler really did have an injury didnt he? It wasnt one of these made up cos he's off injuries, he literally got injured in a friendly, unless I'm thinking of someone else. So a non contact training on his own isnt totally out of the question given we don't know how he came through (or not) that 60 min behind closed doors first game against Brighton last week. NB - having just heard WS in his presser forget that, the kid is obviuously off pretty soon !! 😄
