Still said last week he wants to play 4-2-3-1 he’s got the players to do it but isn’t. You have to wonder why

I wasn't sure until I basically looked at his Lens team again and he played 3_5_2 there as well. So not sure where he got the idea that 4_2_3_1 was his favourite haven't basically never played it

It looks like we'll have to go through it all again with Bazunu. The absolute state of our goalkeeping options is a disgrace but McCarthy is still superior.

Good to see baz back, hope he gets the same leeway fans give to McCarthy when he, for example, jumps out of the way of the ball to let the opposition score a goofy goal, but suspect he won't.  Fortunately, not a concern today as we will keep our sheet clean and scienza will get his first hat trick.

This is a worry… 

 

And they didn’t bother going out to walk around the pitch either… maybe Dragan was bollocking them? I hope so.

I wouldn't. I've said for ages that we need a proper manager, not a pushover coach. Ducks post the other day nailed it. 

Yeah it did the problem is managers aren’t fashionable and I get the feeling the board want to control things. What we certainly don’t need is another Still, i think he’s better than he showed with us but wrong guy at the wrong time. We need a leader, sadly I don’t think we’ll get one

Not sure what THB has done to be able to play in this team, he's been among our worst defenders, no understanding of capt jack.

Fellows must be told dont worry about coming back, expect lots of crosses into the smurfs, manning turning around and passing to jack.

Smells like a prime 1970 brasil performance tonight lol

Trouble is he doesn’t have many options available 

Same as Will Still I guess.

Hopefully the groovy gang’s last hurrah under the patsy Tonka. Have to assume that Bazunu and Stephens are either fucking Ankersen after training, or have been traced as Solak’s love-children!

Coach was late because it went sideways a few times then backwards, then sideways again then got lost going forwards,

I simply cannot understand it. Demonstrably AWFUL goalkeeper. Proven over seasons. Replaces not very good but okish keeper. Makes zero sense but then fuck all about this team and club does.

Statistically the worst keeper in the league. Appaling.

Bazunu. MASSIVE PERMANENT FACEPALM. That is all.

You've got it wrong. Tonda watched against Real Madrid. Baz is the striker and Arma is in goal

I heard that Rasmus considered that the usual pre-match routine was considered not broken…so…

If they put in a performance tonight cos they succeeded in getting rid of yet another manager I think in a weird way I’ll be more annoyed than if we continue to lose badly.

Thete is a core of absolute hateful players at this club.

Don't worry! They'll only put in a storming performance for 10 mins or so. After the first defensive scare they'll revert to type and be utter gash for the rest of the match.

it's not my style to suggest songs but this just popped into my head before our mighty victory tonight.

Tonda want me baby 

Or, if shit hits the fan, we can always fall back on 'Come on and boo the Tonda.'

Could be a 442 with Stephens at right back? Anything other than that is just pure fucking mental!! 

Anyway, even with a Chair upfront for QPR it'll be too much for our lot to deal with.

They could play a fucking wardrobe up front and it’d likely score against our defence and Bazunu.

Let’s face it we are always going to be fucked when our striker options are Armstrong (decent enough player cannot operate as lone striker), Archer (same, although I see not even on bench today) and Damion fucking Downs (just NO). The first 2 would never work with each other, or as the only focal point of attack, Downs just isn’t an option. It’s fucking hopeless. We need a hold up man, only option I can think of is Aribo but we don’t appear to want to try it.

The fact we’ve spent some serious serious money for this league, and this is what we are left with, tells you all you need to know about the people running this club. They’re absolutely killing it month by month

The more I look and compare the 2 lineups, the more obvious it is that, yet again, we are going to get completely over-run and bullied in midfield. Going to be more of the same here unfortunately unless something ridiculous happens

I’d like to be able to cheer us more than groan at us tonight but I think I’ll be disappointed. I’ll take a shit win though. 1-0, JRob with an early strike then we park the cruise ship.

What is your interest in the Saints as you do not seem to be a supporter

I think you have to take the rough with the smooth our record in the PL is not that good and in recent years has been appalling because the owners do not want to spend money on top class players and our academy does not poduce PL standard 

SR obviously run the club they have spent money I think on too many players and keep changing the team

I have no idea what will happen tonight but I hope for a decent result but if it does not happen we move on to the weekend

They had to go back for Manning - he’d gone missing again on one of his walk-abouts.

Stephens, Baz, THB...long for the day they are all gone.  Absolute shite.

If Stephens really was the bell cheese that complained about Still then it's crazy he gets rewarded by being put back in team.  Nasty little core group of players that we need to ship out ASAP.

Baz in goal. Stephens and THB at the back. We've basically already lost. Couple of simple shots on target should do it.

Probably a bit more mobile than some of them though
