Reply | SFC would be better off if we'd lost 10 nil
at 20:25 24 Nov 2024
Liverpool 1st summed it up for me. 25 minutes where we looked fairly comfy. Then our keeper gets it. He can wait til everyone clears the box, maybe slow the game down and give us a breather.
Oh no...
He quickly rolls it out to a player facing him, in a crowded box. Liverpool were waiting and pounced on fernandes immediately. 5 seconds later it's in our net. From absolutely nothing.
Can anyone, anyone at all, tell me what the benefit is in giving it to a player who has no idea what's behind him, in a crowded penalty area surrounded by top players who are currently the best in the league.
What were we thinking would happen?
The reason is they are told to do that by Martin. Every week we give away cheap goals. It's utterly incomprehensible.
You wouldn't do that at under 12's level. |

Funny enough I moved there this week. Hard to have an opinion yet as you have to use it a while for the algorithm to start to understand what you're interested in. Early impressions are that there are way less users, and that there a lot less replies from bots and fewer ads.
But with less users there is less content and less to find interesting. That will change if it grows.
It is nice to try an alternative to X which has turned quite toxic since Musk took over. |

Thread | Sums us up...

From a match report I just read...
' it was the usual story for Saints: plenty of possession, lots of pleasing moves, zero threat in front of goal. If they cannot manage a shot on target against one of the Premier League’s jumpiest defences, it is hard to see a route to survival for them.' |

Depends if they think it's worth the gamble that someone else will keep us up.
I'm not sure this team is good enough whoever is in charge although I definitely don't think RM's rigid style has helped us win games. |

My friends were very close to it.
They didn't say he appeared drunk.
I don't want to speculate wildly about such a sad incident but I seem to remember that it was a heart issue that caused him to fall initially. |

RM just can't coach a team to play attacking football . He's terrified of taking any risks so we are stuck with this turgid passing for passings sake style.
Apparently we pass it around the back, in order to create space and opportunities further forward, but the evidence is crystal clear. It does not work. |

Well I usually judge the season after 10 games. Right now it's 9 games and we have 1 point.
Sometimes it's embarrassing being a saints fan. |

Not really true.
When they came up, they bought 22 players.
In their last game, not one of those 22 were in the starting 11.
So spending money isn't the complete answer. They've done well clearly, but it seems to be done by throwing enough mud at the wall and seeing what sticks. |

I don't get it. He doesn't use him from the start of games.
He doesn't use him when we are 2 goals up, and doesn't use him when we're drawings games.
If he wasn't fit he wouldn't be on the bench. It's yet another mysterious part of the RM footballing masterclass where he knows better than everyone else.
I just glanced at the table and we are already 7 points off 16th place, let that sink in. |

What's concerning is what today's result did to the players. Must have destroyed any fragile confidence they had.
If they can't beat another newly promoted side at home from a 2 goal head start they must wonder who they could beat. |

At least WS has contributed. Sulemana is our record signing. Of all the players we've had, he's the most expensive, let that sink in.
What has he done in 2 years other than fail get to get a place in some very poor teams. Utter waste of 20 million. |

For me 3 things have to happen.
KWP has to be in the side.
Dibling has to play in the space wide right.
We have to have a striker in the middle. |

Reply | The best English Manager not considered for England job
at 11:56 18 Oct 2024
I couldn't care less what song they sing. Does any manager come from the place they represent? Ferguson, Klopp, Poch, Koeman etc etc yet for England they have to be English and sing our song? I just wanna see us win.
Tuchel has a far superior CV than howe.
I also fully expect that the FA knew on the grapevine whether certain managers were open to taking the job or not. |

Leicester at home is a must win. We've already dropped too many points against teams we needed to beat.
I'm giving us 10 games to see where we are before we need to make a decision.
I dont like the style of play at all but maybe the team simply isn't good enough regardless of who is the manager. But I think if currentform continues we will need to see if a different manager and playing style can get us some points.
Right now we can't score, and we're easy to score against which will only mean one thing. Relegation. |
