Damion Downs

[Convict Colony]

Based on the shower of shit this season i would struggle to think Haaland would of made an impact yesterday.

Agree Downs shouldnt be starting he should be developing and having sub appearances in a promotion chasing team........

Instead we are fucking shit

So the weeks go on and I still have no idea if he can play football.

I honestly couldn't tell you.

Chances are, no he can't, but if anything sums up our current plight it's him.

I actually felt a bit sorry for him yesterday when he came on. Not sure if it was boo's for him or the actual decision from Still. He's obviously a player with zero confidence at the moment, think he needs to move even on loan in January.

he was bought as a target player i believe,hes not so did saints actually watch him before buying,if they did then that person should be sacked.Watch him hes trying to play the same as armstrong playing on the last defenders shoulder to run in behind.His pre season goal was exactly this.

[wild-saint]

thought he looked ok in parts. made some decent runs unlike armstrong that were totally ignored with our dull, low tempo predictable football. not one ball was played in for him. sometime you need to criticize the build up play rather than the man starved of any type of service.

based on our lack of options at 9 id persist with him and try and build his confidence. is more likely to work than armstrong poncing about up front on his own.

Well Spors told us he was our main target and he’d bring an extra dimension to the team….

Group Technical Director Johannes Spors said: “Damion is a player we have been monitoring for some time who possesses excellent physical qualities and the ability to disrupt defences.

“Strengthening our attacking options was one of our top priorities this summer, and Damion is a player who will add real quality to the group. Despite his relatively young age he is already a senior international, so we are excited to see him thrive in the environment here at Southampton.”
