There is clear big club bias underlying refereeing decisions. Just take the man city penalty. But in this instance, it makes no difference, saints deserve to be 3-0 down, so a bit of generosity to saints makes things look less biased and costs nothing.

He better put a pocket rocket up their backsides second half. We have been utter dogshit for large parts of this half.

Mike Dean giving us some charity because he knows we're getting beat anyway?

This is pathetic. Its one thing to lose, but over half the team have no fight here. About 3 players are trying. Not good enough!

He needs to up his game or get some help, agreed. That said, great sliding block to stop it being 2-0 just then!

Romeu having an absolute stain of a half. 15yard pass straight out of play under no pressure ffs. And chelsea put the ball in the net direct from the throw in. Lucky that was offside. All on rom though!!! This is shit though.

That Romeu foul was choregraphed in slow motion, what was he doing with that hesitation.

We're also terrible without a big man like che holding up the ball. We need that out.

Look like a team without belief or confidence.

Why is walker peiters not starting in his best position. Madness. Livramento isn't better than him...

That was offisde interreference, Macca couldn't see him coming in at the back post.

They're rotating, thats there for the taking when you're playing the big teams! You'd rather play them full strength? And they aren't man for man better for us. Not every man anyway ^_^

Chalobah, RLC, Hudson Odoi. Weak chelsea team that are there for the taking imo.

oh ffs.

When you put it that way, he is a bit of a hero. Does what the boss asks, doesn't need to do anything exceptional or try to hard, massively overpaid, loving life...

he was talking crap ^_^, often does in fact. But none of this is related to the Chelsea game imo.

This is great. Thank you for sharing

Are you mental? Suggesting something as mundane as that on this forum?!?! I think you'll find that he hates saints, thinks we're a terrible club thats destined for relegation, wishes he'd never signed that new contract 8months ago, and is on strike agitating to leave. Injured?!?! Pah! Edit - He's also fed up because we have noddy fans that occasionally wear face paint, and have players that don't pass to him.

Losing Ings for free (plus wages) would have simply delayed relegation another year at most. In addition, its very plausible that he could have stayed, picked up injuries, and still seen saints relegated regardless (in which case a fit striker is infinitely better). I think you're also forgetting he managed 12goals last season, and our bad form corresponded with his injuries and poor form following that - would you risk that again this year? Knowing that we would still have to replace him in the summer and with no monies from his sale? I'd suggest that that way lies ruin, and the club did the only think it could do - which was to bite villa's hand off for the offered £30m.

Yeah exactly this. Utter nonsense from him. He managed to commentate the entire goal without mentioning or covering Jimenez or either CB. Unless they were playing at CB themselves, our fullbacks would have had zero bearing on that goal, the longball came down immediately behind bednarek, Jimenez took a couple of touches running almost full pelt at goal the whole time. No way either full back intercepts that goal. It was just one of those moments, complete class from Jimenez, sat down both of our CB's with great control and composure, lethal. Trust him to break a 330+ day duck like that vs saints when he was dog last week as well. On Jenas, he's fair in what he said in that we struggle to score, albeit i thought both he and Keown were quite disingenuous over how much Wolves just parked the bus for most of the game. Ultimately though, we do have to start focussing on attack. Can't afford to go too much longer without a win or morale will suffer!

This is utter nonsense. Pony in fact. Wolves' goal came off of a longball from the goalkeeper straight to Jiminez.... 🙃 What do you want our attackers to do from the opposing keepers goal kick?!?!?! Outside of that goal, they had 1 chance prior to scoring and we totally outplayed them. They parked the bus and won with a very well taken goal from a top class striker. The only real complaint saints can have from today is that our new look attack has the age old problem of not being able to break down a well drilled defence.

Moment of class from jiminez in a smash and grab win. It happens.

It looked like a total shithole until he got to Ocean Village 😅

Adams and Armstrong have the making of a good pairing. Che should be starting every game, and as someone else has said, sort out the CAMs behind them.

A game we really do need to win imo, fairly confident that we will do so. Would say a 2-1 or 2-0 win to saints. Armstrong to score.
