All of their attacking players are vastly superior. Vardy v Austin (yes I know they are very different types of strikers but comparing them as both main focal points of the teans) Mahrez v Boufal Gray v Redmond

Can’t wait for the Liverpool meltdown.

More and more people are able to see the real reason for our situation. Hopefully those who refuse to blame the players for anything at all will remove their heads from the sands soon.

Anyone who thinks the squad was good enough last season or even this season is highly deluded. There are severe limitations and Puel is how demonstrating to us all what he now is able to do with proper tools at his disposal. Getting us to 8th place was a minor miracle.

It’s adriansfc, best to ignore his ramblings.

Oh look you’re being abusive again. As well as being spectacularly wrong. Yawn.

I was waiting for someone to blame Puel

And somehow we’re 13th, which shows just how awful some of the teams are in this league. We had 14 points after 19 games in 2004-05, so we’re not quite at Wigley/Redknapp levels

You just know what’s going to happen. We’re going to sit on our hands the whole of January and maybe sign someone which will be announced two hours before the deadline.

It really is quite noticeable. The one exception I can recall is when we lost to Man Utd, but that was one of our better performances of the season.

Better prices in the Championship won’t happen, for away fans anyway. There’s no cap on away ticket prices, some of the prices teams charge away fans are extortionate.

Merry Christmas to all Saints fans, and may 2018 be a better footballing year for us!

If he is going to City, then maybe they’ll want him to play against Man Utd and try and help us get a result whilst increasing their lead at the top.

I agree, but the manager isn’t helping either. Puel got the very best out of a limited squad, Pellegrino has made them worse.

But a 15 minute spell will be the ‘perfect performance’

If VVD chooses Liverpool over City than he’s a fool

Get rid of him, and overhaul the playing squad too. They need to shoulder some of the blame.

I don’t know why because on recent performances this won’t happen but I just have a funny feeling we will get a result in one of our next two away games. Spurs seem to be in form so perhaps not them but Man Utd aren’t playing well at the moment.

Yoshida is one of the few loyal players we have at this club. He may not be the greatest defender in the world but he’ll always give his all for us. There are others more deserving of harsher criticism, such as Tadic for his shocking play acting.

I’ll view it as a victory if he doesn’t end up at Liverpool

King barely gets into their team these days. Gray is fast and direct, so wouldn’t fit in here at all.

I wonder if the FA will act and charge Dele Alli for a blatant dive?

100% this.

If Pellegrino has received the full backing of the board, and is in no danger of the sack any time soon, then he should be brave and name either Hesketh or Sims (if they’re fit) in the starting line up. They can’t do any worse.

There is no way Redmond can be blamed. Austin should have scored, it’s as simple as that.
