Saints 3-0 Leicester - Match Thread

[Hoggins]

Is 9-0 possible?

 

 

 

[Convict Colony]

want fellows to get a goal for the work he has got done over the last 2 games.

[SNSUN]

Fatawu and Mavididi off for them, Soumare and Ayew on. That's a bonus.

 

Edit- although Fatawu was shite that half

Weird when Azaz and Fellows were often sat on the bench and we just lumped the ball up to Arma/Archer/Stewart

Weird when you moaned repeatedly about Fellows playing RWB and Azaz not being used in the 10 behind the striker.

Still repeatedly said they were working on it and not quite doing the things he wanted. Now they are and look how it's working out. 

The fact Sports Republic stood by Martin for so long last season then ditched Still immediately after one game where the fans were chanting against the board shows how narcissistic and weak minded they are.

Time to bring him on will be now, by time he normally comes on we have stopped as an attacking threat.

It’s really pissing me off that we can’t get a good idea of our true level of performance because QPR, Sheffield Wednesday, Charlton and Leicester have been underperforming when we’ve played them.

Millwall should be the test……😀

Yeah, because it was abysmal under the previous manager.

The pressing triggers, passing instructions, off ball run instructions are not the same

Yeah, they've gotten better at playing it. Still repeatedly said they weren't doing the things he was asking them to do, which they now are. 

[Chez]

Ayew has been a bit of a nemesis for us. Hopefully he does jack in this second half.

Still think Will Still manages in the prem before we get there? 

[SNSUN]

Shot AA, wide. Break in play already for their striker.

[Willo of Whiteley]

Foxestalk is very funny.

Theyre fuming with the half time double sub. 😂

Like to see us get at least one more, then give Double D half an hour.

The team I'm watching tonight is playing totally differently to how we played under Still

[SNSUN]

We are all over them. Need to take a chance.

[Suhari]

Really should have scored then.

Even a bizarre segue into slagging off Martin isn’t going to buy you any sympathy on this one, sorry.

If they weren’t doing what he wanted it speaks more to Still’s ability to manage.

[SNSUN]

I wish I had Fellows' stamina. Bloody Duracell bunny.

[Saint_clark]

Nice to hear the atmosphere coming back at St Mary's. The fanbase has needed a run of wins after last season.

[Saint NL]

Jo Tessem just gave the kiss of death

[SNSUN]

Close again AA even if he knew nothing about it 

[Hopper]

WHAT A CHALLENGE from Jander

[Patches O Houlihan]

Big Vesty looks ruined 😁😁😁

An OG from Vestergaard would really be the icing on the cake.

Or, they were only a dozen games into learning a completely different style of play whilst either badly demoralised from last season or settling into a new team and so it took time for them to improve at it. 

Hey ho.

What about Baz? 

[Harry_SFC]

Jander is quality isn't he

[goodymatt]

Is Fellows better than Dibling?

Unquestionably 

[obelisk]

Leicester taking every opportunity they can for a spot of time-wasting.

[Lighthouse]

If I had a quid for every time Fellows made it to the byline tonight, I could buy Agustin Delgado.

Think they’ve got their Christmas party on Friday so we can’t count that one either.

Fine by me. They're 3 down. They know what could happen if we get a couple more.

[Nieldy]

It's just weird watching the saints and enjoying being a few goals up and not worrying if we are going to lose.

[Saint NL]

Ipswich winning, quietly up to 4th in the table now

[Saint_clark]

You can forgive him because it's 3-0, but Armstrong is passing up so many opportunities for players in better positions trying to get a speculative shot away. 

[Colinjb]

So. Bring on Double D?

[Saint_clark]

Not yet it seems, Aribo and Welington coming on.

[Saint NL]

Aribo and Welington coming on?

[obelisk]

Downes with a slightly dodgy back pass was the most dangerous that Leicester have looked.

[SNSUN]

Welington and Big Joe coming on soon.

Hey ho.

Sorry but to go from the total clusterfucks of Blackburn and Preston to this in the space of a few weeks kinda pisses on your argument a bit. We were going backwards under Still and getting progressively worse, not better. The formation may be vaguely similar to what Still was picking, but the tempo, patterns of play and, most importantly, the desire, is nothing like what we saw with Still.

Do you honestly believe we would have won these 4 games and scored 13+ goals in the process if we had stuck with Still?

Will even up the teams then, been invisible last few times coming on as sub.
