janecook added 17:19 - Jan 14 As soon as I saw that JWP was playing I feared the worst its like playing with ten men. We must buy at least one Striker in January. If not we will soon be down the Bottom of the table. larry12 added 17:54 - Jan 14 Am I now Janecook? JWP, Hodge, Redmond, Long, Jayrod rubbish. Puel shouldn't play Prowse, as he is a clueless, pointless nothing player(allegedly). hypersaint added 18:18 - Jan 14 SaintBrock added 18:25 - Jan 14 vanmans added 19:15 - Jan 14 1960Ram added 20:08 - Jan 14 No Rams player comes out of this with any credit. De Sart and Camara especially disappointing. If we have to rely on Vydra to try and save the game, it shows the trouble we are in. And Carson, for once, seemed clueless. For all of the Leeds corners, he would not command the area; just stayed on the line. We were helped a lot by generally poor delivery from Leeds corners. DPeps added 20:54 - Jan 14 Just to add a different perspective... We lost 1-0 away at Burnley under Koeman, and put in a pretty hopeless performance then too Agree that we need a striker. Whether we'll get one or not is another matter! SanMarco added 20:57 - Jan 14 Things need to change - this keeps on happening. If Puel is the man for the job then we need several new players. If the players are good enough we need a new manager. Our inability to score goals has been there for all to see for ages and yet thousands of Saints supporters are travelling hundreds of miles to see the same old problems over and over and over again. If I had a pound for every time 'lacked cutting edge ' appeared in a report on us this season I would be able to buy JWP - he'd be no more use to me than he is to Saints of course... Even our best result of the season last week will probably ultimately be pointless because we did not score enough goals. If we don't use this transfer window to sort things out we will end up pretty close to that dotted line - even below it if other teams have a run. SanMarco added 20:59 - Jan 14 Yes DPeps - but that result was seen as an awful performance and a disaster. This one was just par for the course. With this set up it could easily be repeated at Swansea. DPeps added 21:56 - Jan 14 SanMarco - yes, I agree with you. I was just playing devil's advocate. I suppose my point is that we've played appallingly in the recent past (including most of the first half of last season actually). The difference then was that we could still churn out results. At the moment we look bereft of attacking ideas and, with the exception of the odd good performance, pretty toothless. I still maintain that Puel isn't the main problem. He's walked into a very difficult situation
