Get Armstrong off ffs. All fart and no shit

For the second championship season in a row, we've all been guilty of writing off Adam Armstrong. He'll bag 20 goals this season

[gio1saints]

Fuck yeah!!!!!

Need to remember this lot have won 5 and drawn one. They are no pushovers.

Yep. There's a reason why they are where they are. Just as the Roses score their second try as well!

[Suhari]

Fucking get in!!

[AlexLaw76]

Jander is a ver good player, you can see it.

very comfortable on the ball, pretty mobile, strong....

Where are these killer crosses we were promised from Fellows? Good approach play but little end product today. Edozie mkII...?

Took one for the team there lads. You're welcome 😂

[Suhari]

Great finish AA. Some nice wing play from Fellows.

Needed that.

[Saint NL]

Scienza on for Azaz

[AlexLaw76]

Free kick 25 yards out...here we go

 

edit - bit further than that

We haven't. Hes proven at this level, but needs to be playing in the right position with the right service

[Saint NL]

Come on Manning....

The foul was right on the edge of the D, god knows why the kick was taken a good 6 yards further back

[Saint NL]

Stewart's hold up play is decent, but everything else is non existent.

Saints fans in good voice

Jander is becoming a real favourite already, he reads the game very well

[Edmonton Saint]

Jander and Charles played very well today 

[Saint NL]

Manning giving their man all the space again 🤦

[AlexLaw76]

What a ball by the Boro player, thankfully a crap touch

[RedArmy]

Quarshie has to come out to Ayling there to stop the cross 

[trousers]

Fraser on for Fellows... Hmmm... He was starting to have a big impact...

Fellow off, Fraser on (fellows has played very well to be fair)

Boro seem to have woken up. For all that we've played well, they've been pretty tepid today so far 

[macca155]

They are targeting Manning atm, need to watch that

[Sheaf Saint]

What's really noticeable today is how we are comfortably dealing with everything they chuck into the box. So refreshing, given the general panic that sets in when Stephens, THB and Baz are on the pitch. Just seeing our CBs confidently attacking headers in our box is a novelty in itself.

The kind of thing that most sides can do...... Yet, not us for so, so long.

[AlexLaw76]

Ahhh..last ditch challenge on Armstrong!!

[Saint NL]

So close, you'd fancy Arma to finish that

[macca155]

Could we just for once get a second goal and cruise the game.

[Mr X]

Please saints ffs don't turn a win into a draw! 🙏🙏🙏

[Saint NL]

McCarthy flaps at one 🤦

[RedArmy]

Wood always there to mop up. MOTM for me

No. Of course we can't.

How the fuck did that go in?

[Saint NL]

First shot on target you say?

[sockeye]

Don't panic, still time

[AlexLaw76]

This is where the manager needs to show his worth, they have been well on top here
