Not Boufal as he will want to do it twice every time. IMHO Boufal slows the game down while Armstrong speeds it up.

Great team performance. Armstrong was quality and I will leave this here. James Ward-Prowse was the only player on the pitch to run over 12km in a tireless display. The midfielder contributed nine tackles - three more than anyone on the pitch

Take his goals away would show you how poor we are. Need to hope he can stay fit otherwise we will be relegated and it’s as simple as that.

I really think that Rodgers could of got our current team in the top 10. He has a team of experts around him while our Ralph doesn’t and has been found out.

Totally spot on. The amount of times the West Ham strikers were carving our defence was embarrassing. Any manager researching our team will see we over commit when going forward and if we mark Danny Ings and give no silly free kicks away for JWP nobody else can score for Saints.

It’s Tommy Forecast!!

Beginning to think a good manager could get this team going again. I honestly believe we have the players to do it but they lack confidence. I would drop Redmond and Cedric for starters and try to find a way of getting Boufal to become part of the team.

Heath at Highbury for me. The worse journey home ever!

Interesting thought. Why did you not invade the pitch just before it happen?

Well said and totally spot on. Two important things in this game, We are one day fresher than them plus Andy Carroll is important for them.

With so many teams starting to sack managers IMHO if we lost on Saturday I still feel we would not take that route for now.

The second best thing to come out of Liverpool.

I agree with many that Boufal is a good impact sub. Maybe start him and let Redmond become that impact sub instead because IMHO since he’s signed that extended contract he’s never been the same.

Everton had the worse away record before they met us and they beat us 2-1. Watford are the worse now and if we can't beat them then we are doomed I tell you.

Not sure why we have been so poor at home since Koeman left? Something is not right as Everton are shocking and yet they beat us last week. What makes us think we will beat Watford?

The players need to train at St Mary’s all week plus they need to rip out the home dressing room and redesign it as it’s an unhappy place for the players at the moment.

The ‘old codgers’ lot were a fine group. Would certainly say hello if I passed them again.

On the handshakes can’t we line up in a V in the hope it will throw City?

Matters not who we put out as we will try to grind out a non embarrassing defeat. Just how ****e are we right now!

They could hardly sing ‘Were by far the greatest team....’ Our team is so ****e at the moment that you have to take the mickey out of yourselves as it’s embarrassing watching us.

We’ve been told to expect nothing from the club. I expect that will carry on for 90 minutes tonight!

Some funny comments on here and we are at our worse that I can remember. Got no hope on Tuesday so it matters not who we put out.

Don’t think any player will get in the Gareth Crooks team of the week either which is disappointing.

But he got a good assist.

I was working during the game and I managed to avoid any scores until I got home to watch it on record. Blimey that was painful! The problem? Its become rotten at the top and it’s making its way to the playing staff. The fix? Time to play a steady formation were the players don’t dive in and try to contain the opposition player.
