Slack Jack on 19:44 - Dec 22 with 1295 views | City_boy | I would be very surprised and disappointed if he got back in. I think the back 3 HB, JB and Wood have look a lot more solid in last few games. Wood looks far more assured than Stephens at the back. I still haven't forgiven JS for his childish, petulant actions that got him sent off against Chelsea and Man U. I wouldn't even have on the bench if the 3 above are fit. | | | |

Hopefully RM will get another job in a much lower lge & take Slack Jack with him. | | | |

Oh I agree He shouldn’t even make the squad it is just the fact that under several managers now he has always seemed to get picked so I do wonder if Ivan will dispense with him as he should | | | |
Slack Jack on 01:18 - Dec 23 with 1018 views | NYC_Saint | ABK will be back in contention. Stephens clearly sucked up to RM and was the mole that ratted out anyone that spoke out against the philosophy of turning saints into man city through possession within the 18 yard box. Can't see him having a future with us now. He has made a fortune from being a mediocre football player, fair play to him for playing the (financial side of the) game so well. | | | |

Do you know these allegations as facts, and if so, how? [Post edited 23 Dec 9:30]

Well said, as most know I am no great fan of Jack, but he deserves respect for his time here, Russell Martin is the one who deserves the stick for making him his pet favourite, I am sure that Jack himself probably didn't want that and now finds himself a pariah with the fans when previously he did have some respect | |

Slack Jack on 10:40 - Dec 23 with 684 views | Flamingbankers | Jack is a centre back. Not a left back and not a midfielder and definitely not a roaming centre back/ left back come midfielder. Those are bonkers or desperate ideas. He's 'was' a reasonable back-up centre back (not sure whether this is still the case because it hasn't been tested. Unfortunately the laundry's been soiled recently) and it should have been that way for any sensible management from the beginning of the season. Juric seems a tough, assured manager and hopefully, he'll have some common sense. Hopefully again, they'll also be an opportunity for ABK to show his worth although that horse may have bolted so to speak. If this defensive confusion had been sorted out at the start of the season Saints would be in a better place now. Easy to see with hindsight of course but it's not calculus. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Nick, Stephens has been poor for years. This wasn't just under Martin, although I accept Martin did him no favours shoe horning him into all sorts of positions, when there were better options. | | | |

Perhaps if he issued an apology for his behaviour v Chelsea it might help. He let the club, players, himself and most importantly the fans down. He is supposed be setting an example as Captain but pulling a players hair was pathetic. Maybe I missed but I haven’t heard a peep from him. I said it at the time Stephens should never play for the club again. | |

Slack Jack on 17:06 - Dec 23 with 467 views | Mrangry25 | I hope Slack Jack never puts on a first team shirt again, he is one of our major problems as far as I am concerned, he should be stripped of the club captaincy immediately. I am looking forward to the match. COYR | |

No doubt Juric has seen his antics on video | | | |
