He was onside for nearly all of that move

he should have had the ball many points before the shot/he was offside...

After some initial promise he's developing into another Downs.

He has had more touches of the ball in this half so far than Downs managed in total in his time at Saints.

Leo was never going to pass that.

I don't think it matters what Larin did. Scienza had loads of time to bury that. It's a very poor miss. 

[goodymatt]

Ah man, we won’t get a better chance than that. Scienza the guy you want taking the shot too. Got away with one at one end and should have punished Fulham there.

No arguements there, very poor effort

That's just bollocks. He's won the ball in the centre and got us moving forward a couple of times already today. He's got good strength and can protect the ball well. 

He'll never be even close to as hopeless as Downs was.

he is better than Downs but his movement at times is terrible. 

However, he is pretty good at holding the ball up (now we are not snobs about it all), and we a better side with him or Stewart in it

[SNSUN]

Hola! I'm barely following today's game as I'm busy at work but well done to all the fans coming through Earl's Court in colours this morning. I hope your journey is rewarded!#

UTS! 

[obelisk]

Saints conceding a lot of corners. Maybe we need the practice defending them.

[Saint NL]

Wood kicked Manning, Peretz blasted the ball at him too. Do the players hate Manning? 😂

[Sheaf Saint]

They're turning the screw on us now. Can't see us holding out too much longer TBH.

Leo has to do better.

[Saint NL]

Scienza shot out for a throw.

He's left his shooting boots at home today

Flynn Downes only knows how to pass backwards.

[badgerx16]

How was that from Larin ?

[goodymatt]

Wanted Larin to do a Jay-Rod then!

He did well but under hit the pass 

[Harry_SFC]

I think Larin is playing pretty well.

[AlexLaw76]

Azaz was the pass there

[Saint NL]

He would have been better to shoot there

Then a terrible touch 🤦‍♀️

[SaintNate]

Can't keep wasting these chances. 

[trousers]

FFS Azaz

[badgerx16]

Azaz completely fucked that up.

[RedArmy]

Miss aside, Leo is so special. 

[Saint NL]

4v2, we need to do better with these breaks

[Sheaf Saint]

Oooh. Just over hit that cross. Would have been a beautiful goal if we'd scored there.

[obelisk]

Saints really need to convert one of these chances.

Yep, putting himself in the shop window here for the summer... ☹️

Final balls haven't been good enough.

Needs to improve his finishing before anyone looks at him 

[obelisk]

When was the last time Saints defended so many corners?

difference today in the final 3rd, they get corners or force a save, we over hit a pass or miss the target

[Saint NL]

Wish I had a tenner on the Over 10 corners market

[die Mannyschaft]

Same squad as last few games otherwise pointless playing the match at all. Teams should be banned by fielding weak teams from next season. If you cant be bothered to win and throw the games 3 points deducted 

[Hawkswood]

Well.played thb

[die Mannyschaft]

Is there a chance of us winning.  Not watching game

[Saint NL]

We've had the best chances, but still to register a shot on target

[AlexLaw76]

Good ball there from Bree and very unlucky from Larin

Yep. Fulham on top overall, but we've had the best chances on the counterattack 

[Patches O Houlihan]

After having defended so many corners successfully we'll take 0-0 at half time, but really should have scored at least one of those chances

Edited Sunday at 12:49 by Patches O Houlihan

[obelisk]

0-0 at HT. Just a bit more quality in attack and Saints could have had a lead here.

Fulham have put us under a lot of pressure and won lots of corners, but we've had some really dangerous moments in the break and has the better chances.

[Saint In Cornwall]

Larin offside almost every time 

[Saint NL]

Decent half.

Think we will regret those missed chances though
