I don’t think Leo’s had a bad game. He’s just been our only decent player and they’ve kicked him off the park. Azaz has been far more anonymous.

We lack belief. 
 

One thing about Martin, you always felt a late goal could come. 
We look like we’ve admitted defeat here. Come on lads they’re shite

The shape is the same. Wellington's become the left centre-back and Robinson the right wing-back.

Seems mental. Give them a different problem. Get someone further forward.

They both look knackered.

Whatever he's done with Wellington here is absolutely bizarre. Whatever happened to just keeping football fucking simple, Norwich are doing it and they are going to get three points

Still playing same shape. Why not try something different?

What does it say about our captain that he's been replaced by a semi-fit LB?

What does it say about Eckert that he cannot bring himself to ditch this fucking awful 3 CBs formation?

So, still plan A.

Determined to get the ball back to the back 5 at every opportunity. So shit when chasing the game. Get the extra man in midfield FFS and make the mistakes in their half

Still fannying around at the back. Saints don't seem to realise that they're losing.

We’ve done loads of that today. Russell Martin would approve

And we invariably lose it when doing so or it's eventually punted upfield anyway.

We need to stop the crosses coming in. 

Desperately need Fellows fit. Nobody is carrying the ball forward at pace. Slows all of our attacks down.

We have been comfortably 2nd best today.

we have just 2 ways of starting a meaningful attack.

pass it about and hope THB finds a midfielder in space, or hope Leo provides some individual magic.

Trouble is, teams are now shutting down the middle of the park.

Fraser was abysmal

Downes put a shift in

Scienza needs protecting more from refs. Last few games since teams have cottoned on has been disgraceful. He’ll get injured by someone.

That one on the edge of the box was a bit of a joke.

We have been poor but the ref has essentially won the game for them.

I've got no sympathy for him, which might be unpopular. He starts with all the going down like a sack of shit and rolling around from minute one, and that will make you a target from the Premier League down to Sunday League.

He's the best player on the park, just stay on your feet and show everyone.

Don't think he's gone down softly once today.

What they fuck happens at half time ?

Must go to the pub, can't think of any other excuse. Saints with a one goal lead at this stage of a game and it's backs to the wall, if it's the opposition, it's easy to hold on.

He gets wiped out routinely. The idea he dives is completely wrong.
