DT Posted 7 May, 2021 Share Posted 7 May, 2021 7 hours ago, egg said: Behave. Someone isn't a "tosser" cos they say no to the pay that they're offered. It's Bertrand's job, and probably his last contract. We could be offering half his current wages, pay as you play, month to month, anything that he thinks unfair. That said, I wouldn't offer anything as he looks finished and disinterested to me, but don't be throwing the insults around when you don't know what's happening. Fair enough. I take it back. Not a tosser. But he hasn't really looked like he gives much of a toss for quite a while. May be just his style. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 7 May, 2021 Share Posted 7 May, 2021 They have been relatively (for them) woeful at home for a while so there is a chance, but we have also been in relegation form since the new year so I don't hold out much hope. Just hope they actually give it a go and don't play as if they are on the beach, otherwise we will just play Liverpool into form, put them under some pressure and they might crack.

VictiAbNonem Posted 7 May, 2021 Share Posted 7 May, 2021 Jack made more, and more threatening, runs forward against Leicester than I've seen from Bertie for ages. I hope he continues to cover there while RB's out and does well enough to get back in Ralph's good books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itchen Posted 7 May, 2021 Share Posted 7 May, 2021 It's odd isn't it? A few years back, most of our attacks went up the left wing with Bertrand and Redmond overlapping effectively. Then it all seemed to stop and, since KWP came, we now do most of our build up down the left. If only, we could manage both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he continues to cover there while RB's out and does well enough to get back in Ralph's good books I recognise that Bertrand hasn't got forward as often recently, and I also thought Jack had a good game against Leicester but it was a "backs against the wall" performance from the whole team. It just isn't true to say that he made more and more threatening runs forward than Bertie has been doing. Jack has had two good performances at Left Back against Leicester and Newcastle home, but other matches at full back have been less successful (e.g. Right Back v Newcastle away). He is just about good enough to cover full back (particularly when out of possession), but let's get some proper full back cover going forward. This season has highlighted putting square pegs in round holes doesn't work in the long term. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suewhistle Posted 8 May, 2021 Share Posted 8 May, 2021 According to the preview in The Guardian our subs are from:..Subs from Forster, Lewis, Nlundulu, Finnigan, Ferry, Chauke, Watts, Tchaptchet, Jankewitz, Ramsay, Salisu, Obafemi. Shows the strength in depth of our squad.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancouver Saint Posted 8 May, 2021 Share Posted 8 May, 2021 What is going on - why so few posts? Is there a social media ban from Saints fans protesting our appalling 2021 form that I've missed? Great Telegraph article about why we've been so bad...taking our foot off the high press pedal (as we know injury and tiredness) plus worst goalkeepers in the league (both equally bad and need replacing according to stats). Hard to predict how this game will go. Either we go down to 10 men after 10 minutes as is our wont and it's a rout that inspires Fulham to a four-game winning spree (stranger things have happened and, after all, we are Saints) - or, we play with some real spirit against a deflated Liverpool team and win 2-0! Draw not impossible either...So that covers every possibility then. I would like to see Jankewitz play - enough of whatever punishment or issues there are with him and Ralph/the team. We need more drive and grit in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
