He will drip on about being brave and courageous and holding our nerve. Ok Russ, fair enough but when are YOU gonna be brave and courageous with your team selection instead of picking shite like Holgate, Smallbone, Armstrong….

If he plays the right team, ie Charles as holding midfielder, Stuart Armstrong or Charly instead of effin Adam Arnstrong in midfield, we might just stand a chance.

He was. When Joe Aribo is the answer you don’t want to know what the question is.

Yeah, I don’t think Ralph was averse to treating players on the fringes poorly. Then there was Mark Hughes treatment of Romeu. There aren’t many managers that don’t no matter how unintentional

Interesting how Ipswich didn’t seem to have much problem playing out from the back, but then they looked for men that had space around them. I hope RM was watching them !!

I assume as he’s been made captain that Adam Armstrong is undroppable then?

Aribo? WTF ???

Watch it on the Sky Sports app then!

That’s so sad. I hope Dave’s faith guides him through this awful time.

I’m not sure, even for Saints managers, the honeymoon period has crashed and burned quite so quickly and alarmingly. From 10 points in 4 games, better than anyone could have expected, to the last two games ! Talk about flatter to deceive.

He’s a complete non entity.

Any midfield with Adam Armstrong and Will Smallbone in it are offering zero protection to the centre backs, it’s like an open invitation to run straight at them.

A couple of those goals he let in at Sunderland dont need much micro analysis, they were bloody obvious to anyone that they were his fault regardless of the role the defence played beforehand.

The biggest irony is all the fuss he made about Covid vaccinations - what are they putting into your body etc etc - yet he takes every opportunity he can to flog these CBD Oil and gummies things 🤣

To be honest he’s withdrawn himself from public life. Before his theory inspired tweets and comments he’d made himself a bit of a mainstream media celeb with appearances on quiz shows etc. Obviously not content with that he burnt all those bridges so his media work has been cut to the conspiracy theory circuit where other people who think nothing is as it seems can massage his ego and give him air time. He’ll never admit he lost the job on Sky himself, he could easily have carried on like Merson has but he couldn’t keep his trap shut. Shame really.

We must be the only team to sign a 6ft 7inch target man then never play him as a target man !! Unbeievable really. I wish him all the best, he was shafted here.

I’ve currently got Covid after avoiding it all this time. If he wants to come round my house spouting his bullshit about it being a conspiracy I’m more than happy to set him straight !

Oh ok, thanks

Disappointing to see some have turned on RM already, he's come in like a breath of fresh air yet one setback....one horrendous setback admitted.....and the knives are out and being sharpened.

Yeah, as shite as he was this one is laregely on RM. Why he didnt go with Charles is anyones guess......almost as much as why he waited so long to take him off ! I was quite surprised not to hear ironic cheers from the Saints fans who made the trip when he did come off tbh.

Jesus 🙄 He has one job, stopping the ball ending up in the back of the net. He was at fault for what? 3 of those goals? And you’re not sure?

Holgate is Steven Caulker all over again isn’t he?

A fkin cardboard cut out placed somewhere on the goal line got more chance of making a save than this idiot. I’ve been pretty reluctant to criticise him too much but fuck me that third goal? Seriously?

Was full of praise for Southampton 🤣

Good to see that Adams is ok for the bench after another week where he must have been mentally pulled from pillar to post. The international break for once comes at a good time, a free week for everything to settle down.
