I couldn't (luckily?) go to see the match. However, I received the following msgs 'Saints are so bad, when they go down to 10, they get better.' 'They made it through half time without letting one in!' '1-4! Saints fans are running on the pitch hoping they get banned.' 'To be fair saints have done more key passes than che, that led to goals!' If these msgs are a fair assessment then slap 'like' 🤣 |

What's the point of suspending managers who then sit up in the stands, arguably in a better position, and then communicate with their staff? They should be banned from watching the game. Or, would that be considered an advantage for certain teams? |

Criticism doesn't come from you or me; it comes via the results. Messi, Best, Ronaldo, and Pele in defence would fail playing the Martin way. Everyone was criticising the goalkeeper, so at great expense a new one was recruited; the result was worse. Micromanagement doesn't work at the speed of the game; he has to let the players manage their actions on the pitch. He can't stick to his guns because they just shoot the players in the foot. McCarthy has already lost his job; the other players will see themselves ridiculed in the press every week, and gradually they will leave him. |

Three points: In the concept "Playing out from the back," the most important word is "out," not "playing!" The best players should play 60 minutes, not 30. If I remember correctly, last season they played as the manager wanted and lost the first 4 games. Then they abandoned his ideas and won every game. So how many games are left for us to endure this pain? |

The first game in the Premier League against currently one of the best; I didn't know what to expect. But I saw a team that can compete; I saw a team that took to them. Yes, I can come up with a list of things I would have done differently. Premier League football is a game of 38 halves, and Saints can compete. |
