What does Ralph say to them at half time? We are consistently terrible after the break. Another defeat. I can’t help but fear for this team.

Any ITKers know how the players reacted to Ralph’s tears after Liverpool? It seems like it’s all fallen apart since that moment.

Seems like we’ve been in disarray since the Liverpool win. Are we in trouble?

He’s undergoing a medical.

Am I right in thinking that if VAR didn’t exist we wouldn’t have got those decisions anyway? The handball wasn’t blown by the ref and the lino flagged Ings’ goal for offside.

Tommy Widdrington pointing to his name after scoring one of the scrappiest goals in Saints history. Classic.

I'd love someone to do a similar tactical analysis of us under Mark Hughes 😝

Lee Hendrie co-commentator I think

We’re playing like we did under Stuart Gray.

He must have been reading from a Scott Marshall textbook laying around. Two OGs in his only two Saints appearances. One of those was off his arse if I remember correctly.

Matt Targett at Villa so far - discuss.

Diallo will come in against Fulham. Ideal game for a start tbh.

This is a walk in the park for City. Saints can’t get a hold on the game at all. Djenepo is very poor.

Good result. Feels like a loss because Arsenal were there for the taking. But it's a good result in the grand scheme of things. Arsenal won't be this dross all season because Arteta won't last. They'll beat big teams if they bring in someone of quality (Allegri, for example). Let's keep picking up points.

Floodgates.

3-1 to Arsenal.

Our form should mean I'm confident going into every game, but I just can't let myself enjoy dream! This will be a tough one. Unless Arteta is just useless and the players want him out.

Favre has been sacked by Dortmund. Hands off Ralph, please.

If he does go, I hope it’s done amicably and sympathetically to the fans who have put all faith in him returning to rightful quality after years of hellish injuries. He’s such a decent bloke that I would hate to see his Saints legacy tarnished in the same way as Lallana or van Dijk, the latter of who has to be my most loathed ex-Saint.

I make that two assists and a goal in his four games for us so far.

Watch him tear us apart now! I'm not confident abut this one. 2-0 Wolves.

Saint Maximin and Carroll will score against us.

Needs surgery. Out for 4-6 weeks, says Ralph.

Shelvey will make sure we don’t go top.

Ah, right on cue.
