If you put Wood in for Edwards given TE doesnt seem to rate him at all I really dont understand why that line up and formation wouldnt be worth a try. With a new keeper it would be even better.

I see from his quotes Tonda has jumped all over the Baz was Man of the Match farce. If he believes what his eyes tell him, as he has insisted a few times, he's either a bloody liar or needs a trip to Specsavers if he thinks this clown is any good !

He probably does. The other advantage would be we dont piss around so much at the back cos even our dopey defenders realise he's an accident thats usually gonna happen with the ball at his feet.

His subs were better tonight, low bar admitted, but hopefully we’ve seen Aribo wander around for the last time. The starting line up was bizarre but at least the changes made us stronger and that’s a first for a while.

Indeed and as he mentioned for a club that seems obsessed with being stats driven they somehow turn a blind eye to the fact that statistically he’s the worst bloody keeper in the league !!

It might be alright if we had three good central defenders and at least one who would carry the ball forward with purpose, but we haven’t so it’s pointless.

Had he played 80 mins plus I would possibly agree with you. But he was on the pitch for 55 mins and we didn’t exactly go full throttle did we? So no it doesn’t make sense.

Leo on the bench 😡

THB is a fraud. He thinks he’s Billy big bollocks, you can tell just by the way he struts around like a peacock. He’s a Championship level defender at best. I could never understand at the time we got him why Vincent Kompany didn’t sign him at Burnley after he helped them get promoted. Now I know why he didn’t !

How many times have we seen this? Players put in the extra effort to get a coach a job full time then go back to being shite. It doesn’t just happen at Southampton but we do seem to repeat this policy more than most !

This is just totally effin crap

Get Stephens off and put an attacking player - Robinson? - on ffs

The three central defenders all have their moments as well. So none at the back, no wonder Bazunu looks shite !

They really were not. You are either quite young or the old brain cells are fading. Niether hold a candle to Shilton, Niemi or Flowers. Davis was awful at his near post and while he was a top Championship keeper he never stepped up to Premier level.

Seriously? I can’t believe that for a second

As I've said before if you have a defence that can, shall we say, have its moments and look awful and panic at the slightest little set back you need a keeper behind them who gives them that bit extra confidence back.........Bazunu is not that keeper.

Its interesting that (so far) when TE wants Quarshie in for the extra pace and/or height its Cap'n Jack out of the 3 regular starters that seems to miss out. I'm not complaining mind you !

Problem is when you appoint an inexperienced manager who starts off so well you are committing yourself to except and support him through difficult times and more importantly while he is learning how to cope and learn when things don’t go well. This is where we are. Like it or not it’s our reality.

The move has been an absolute disaster for the lad unfortunately

That’s the biggest issue, he hasn’t got any better at anything.

No urgency whatsoever last 20 mins, that’s appalling

I wouldn’t be putting much money on that tbf

When does he ever come for crosses?

Wood a fkin statue and Bazunu stood in cement ffs !!!

For a team who were/are looking at getting straight back up having a keeper with those stats is abysmal. He makes me nervous every time the ball gets within distance of our goal, christ knows how the defence must feel with him behind them !
