Saints Vs Brighton Thread

What is the point in spending £19mill on a new striker then playing Long on his own up front?

 

Something is really ****ed up at our club.

thankfully, MP is decent with his HT team talks

 

You know what, I think that's the first time ever you have actually made me laugh

Turn this around and we’ll be 14th, just can’t see it.

You only have to look at the players on the bench to realise the clown has not got a clue!!

Does anyone know how Walcott has been getting on?

68% possession and almost twice as many passes as Brighton.

all in Front of their back 10.

 

not worked their keeper once ourselves

68% possession and almost twice as many passes as Brighton.

 

and that equals dominating in your mind? passing it around all day means f o o k all brighton have been more effective!

Blimey, I’m ****ing freezing and I have witness this shower of ****.

First up, what a bench we have. Our 4 record signings are sat on it.

We are sending hopeful crosses in the box but we have a 5 ft 6 guy trying to get his head to them. That does not work?

Come the 70th minute we will bring on a 6ft 5 guy and start playing the ball forward on the deck for a nippy style striker, ha ha noooooo.

 

Its a bloody miracle if we come out and turn this game around because (1) Long, Davis and Tadic are gash (2) Pellegrino is a **** (3) Reed and the board need to be shot as this is embarrassing.

I'm fan of Davis he has been a good servant but he shouldn't be starting anymore he has offered nothing tonight how he can be starting ahead of Lemina or Boufal I have no idea.

68% possession and almost twice as many passes as Brighton.

Arsenal had over 70% posession when losing to Swansea last night. It doesn't count if it's passing around the back 4 and then to McCarthy.

0 shots on target at home in a 6 pointer !

Turn this around and we’ll be 14th, just can’t see it.

 

The fact that the league is so trash makes this all the more criminal.

Does anyone know how Walcott has been getting on?

 

His two goals have probably just ensured Everton are safe. He’s probably repaid the £130k a week already.

 

Meanwhile saints are still crying out for some pace and look even more certain for the drop

all in Front of their back 10.

 

not worked their keeper once ourselves

 

 

We are like a **** Arsenal..

68% possession and almost twice as many passes as Brighton.

 

Sideways and backwards.

How many more home games against weaker/must-beat opposition will we start with a single striker.

 

This is not Alavés! We have been in the PL for 5 years, there are must win games!

 

Anyway the moment was after the Crystal Palace on NYD, that was make or break. Now we are well and truly in the battle and with other teams turning themselves around, we risk sinking.

You know what's really telling?

 

I'm MORE confident of a win now we have to go for it, then I would be if we'd gone in 1-0 up.

 

Not with the current four attacking players my friend.

And to rub it in......Theo has scored twice for Everton. FFS.

Has a Premier League manager ever been sacked at half-time?

Please, let's make history.

Please, let's make history.

 

Its not enough. Les Reed needs to **** off as well.

And to rub it in......Theo has scored twice for Everton. FFS.

Was he ever really going to come here with us in the mess we are in? I think not.

Lots of the ball, little movement in front of ball and not enough bodies in box when we get in a

cross.

 

Has to be better 2nd half...

Sideways and backwards.

 

And slowly.

I can't think of a worse one. I mean someone like Wotte wasn't great but he had naff all to work with. Given the players at his disposal I struggle to think of a manager who would do worse.

 

I could do better than this c**t. I could do better than this c**t if i was part time and on the p i s s whilst in charge. And had Kylie Minogue as my assistant who i was giving it to during training. Still do better than this nob.

and that equals dominating in your mind? passing it around all day means f o o k all brighton have been more effective!

Saints have had more shots from outside the box, more from inside the box and more shots blocked. They've had more crosses, greater crossing accuracy, more passes and greater passing accuracy. Brigthton have made more blocks, tackles and twice as many clearances

Unfortunately Brighton have had the only shot on target and that was a goal

Just to clear up the stats

Is Reed sat in the Directors Box tonight ?

 

Or is he tucked away, tie askew, and making frenzied phone calls to clubs and agents? Might have his work cut out to bring in Promes (or similar), a CB, and a GK before 2300hrs.

 

I'd settle for two of the above.

Not with the current four attacking players my friend.

 

He has to make a change at HT. Has to.

 

I will be bewildered beyond any belief if he thinks that we can turn this around with the same personnel in the second half.

No Boufal, no Lemina, no Carillo.

 

This bloke is a ****ing dickhead.

 

Les needs to kick the **** door down at half time and ask Pellegrino why Gabby, Boufal, Lemina and Carrillo are not on the pitch.

This one was. But it's a close call.

 

Maybe it's a Mexican standoff; MoPe is daring the Board to sack him, rather than resigning, so that he doesn't lose out financially, and the Board are waiting for him to resign to save the compensation.

4th official has the subs board out

Greetings from St Mary's.

 

We'll, that was a bit drab.

 

Permission to join the doom and gloom bandwagon please.

 

On that performance we're championship bound.

 

Good job it's only a game...

2 changes. Carillo and Boufal on.

SaintsFC have won one of their last 54 league games when trailing at half-time

Carrillo and Boufal on but why is Davis still on????

Saints have had more shots from outside the box, more from inside the box and more shots blocked. They've had more crosses, greater crossing accuracy, more passes and greater passing accuracy. Brigthton have made more blocks, tackles and twice as many clearances

Unfortunately Brighton have had the only shot on target and that was a goal

Just to clear up the stats

So we are doing just brilliant?

Boufal and Carillo coming on.

Les needs to kick the **** door down at half time and ask Pellegrino why Gabby, Boufal, Lemina and Carrillo are not on the pitch.

 

I'd have started all 4 (instead of Davis, Long, Romeu & JWP - even though JWP has played ok-ish), but we only have 3 subs so someone will be disappointed. Probably Gabbi.

4 wins all season, the only stat that counts.

Boufsl abd Guillermo on

Romeu and Tadic off

He's left Davis on and taken off Romeu ???

Les shouldn't even be there. He should be in his office working his sack off before the window closes. The sight of him and Krueger sat there in their stupid ****ing hats grimacing shows that they have abrogated their responsibility just as much as Pellegrino

Well it's [positive to see Boufal and Carillo on. But why the f*ck are Long and Davis still on?

 

This guy does not have a fg*cking scooby what he is doing.

Tadic and Romeu off and boufal and Carillo

Sorry predictive text

Everyone here is quick to blame the manager, but have any of you stopped to think it might have something to do with the supermoon?

4-4-2 is a mistake this early.

 

Needed to be 4-3-3 with Carillo up top. We were dominating them through midfield and would have had all day to get him some tasty headers.

Give the ball away immediately. The fightback is on.

Sorry predictive text

I dimt see tht one cming

Massive half this.
