Funny how us fans know Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin will score, Townsend will cause us problems, and our goalkeeper is shite. Why can’t the manager?

Not sure why so many are assuming this. Vestergaard is a good defender. If he wasn’t, he wouldn’t be going to Leicester, a team light years ahead of us right now.

Would be a good signing.

Not sure if this is a wind-up but goodness me. I don’t think the situation is as bad as some make out but anyone who thinks we’ve not been significantly weakened by selling Ings need a wake up call. Yes, we know he wanted a move and, yes, we’ve done well to get £30 million for him, but I’m struggling to see who we can bring in that’s on par with his class. Armstrong definitely isn’t (yet) and is unproven in the Premier League. Finding Danny’s replacement is going to be the biggest call this management has made in years. It needs to be spot on.

We’ve sorely missed his brand of rock & Rohl football.

I managed a lot of players, Shearer was excellent, Ince was excellent, David Beckham too, all wonderful players. ”Scholes was the reason why Le Tissier didn't go. He was such a good player, he could play off the front, he could play anywhere, he just got on with it and put his foot in if need be.”

I think it’s a shame it’s got to the point where our academy isn’t producing guaranteed first team talent. Players in the mould of Lookman should be part of our production line in the hope establishing themselves as regulars, rather than shelling out on a player who’s been passed around a few times in the past five years.

Ornstein claims Ben White gets the nod over JWP.

Am no a grass.

Another extremely jammy finish from Che today. Hope he sorts out his finishing soon.

Jammy finish? He scored, what more do you want? It would be great for Che to kick on next season to bat away ridiculous posts like this.

Good stat. In three months we’ve only won 8 points. Sums up how dreadful 2021 has been for Saints and how bad the bottom three are.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they battered Leicester, making our performance on Sunday even more disappointing. It could be 2005 all over again...

Our awful run of performances began with his tears after Liverpool.

As always, it’s the hope that kills you.

Hope they do it for him today.

Ian Darke commentating. This will be insufferable.

Anyone here go to Silverspoon before the game? I remember Silverspoon vs the Green Man pre match venue build up generated more hype than the match itself.

Hopefully this won’t turn into another Tranmere.

Ralph Krueger’s been sacked from the Buffalo Sabres. CHDAJU?

Posters like CB Fry have to be wondering if they’ll keep their “we are safe” schtick up.

Horror show

I can’t see us staying up

You can’t rely on other teams to lose their tough fixtures and we’ve looked terrible and lost against teams supposedly worse than us, including Newcastle. I’m not sure why there are so many on here that confident we are safe.

Anyone else think the players’ heads have dropped somewhat due to some of the appalling refereeing decisions that went against us in recent games? It could have been a much rosier picture.
