That first half ranks as one of the worst I have ever seen from a Saints team They stitched RM up and if getting rid was the objective then they did a superb job I would issue a fine to every single starter |

We had chances again but no one with enough skill to finish the few good moves we had It's so frustrating
Could we get Ings back in January or someone with his finishing ability
One very bright spark was Natan Wood He looks like a top prospect |

I thought Cucurella was dead the way he went down so why no fuss about that the way there was when Diaz got a player sent off v Newcastle
Don't get me wrong I am not defending Stevens I'd be happy if he never played for us again |

Let's put it into perspective.We had 3 of our best four players suspended,our first and second choice keepers are both injured,3 more first choice picks injured and we played one of the top clubs in the country So what did we expect.?
In addition a man gets HIMSELF sent off My view is that he shoul never wear the armband again and unless we are desperate he shouldn't play again
It does unfortunately add fuel to the 'change owners,change manager etc "brigade Even if PEP took over we would not stay up so why not stay with someone who has fresh experience of getting promoted
I am disappointed because I thought signings like Diaz and Archer would give us goals and a chance of survival Sugawara and Fernandez have proved to be good signings and the retention of THB andRyan Fraser |

I am fed up with VAR decisions Why wasn't the foul on AA given by Oliver He was pushed,his shirt was pulled and he was tripped by the keeper How much more obvious does it need to be?
Our overall performance was definitely better but still no gold fish It wasn't hard to see why AM is our 3rd choice keeper I initially blamed JS for the first goal but saw on the replay that it was a poor clearance by Downes
I still don't see the point in replacing RM We are going down and will then need a championship manager with promotion gaining experience |

Fernando's is fast becoming the m/f player we wanted and the first half proved that he can comfortably play with AL and not just as cover for him
When we took Stephens off for Sugawara it looked more balanced If KWP had been the one to play in front of Captain Jack instead of Manning we may even have created more chances.Was it just me who breathed a big sigh of relief when he went off?
Star of the show was undoubtedly Rambo He kept us in it a couple of times and his clearances were more varied than of late
Hopefully this will give their confidence a big lift Now watching Wolves v CP and hoping for a draw |

I would rate this as one of our best performances this season There were definite signs that the "style" is being tweaked and is looking like it could produce results Had we got a point no one could have said we didn't deserve it
RM has shown that he is a coach who has passion for his team, gets into the game like a fan and cares just as we do.
His booking came after AL was fouled but the ref ignored it and then within seconds he gave City a free kick for nothing challenge
Hopefully off the back of this we can win the next two |

This was a terrible display by the referee I have never rated him but today he went beyond even my poor assessment of him Four first half yellows all to Saints players Did no one in a blue shirt commit a foul?
I am begining to see why Arsenal where prepared to let Ramsdale leave He really doesn't command his six yard box or boss his fenders
When Sugawara was subbed Manning and then Taylor went to LB It's no coincidence that all 3 goals came from that quarter
A lot of rumours about Moyes replacing RM so be prepared to be bored into the championship |

This performance gives us just a glimmer of hope for the rest of the season
Tall Paul looked keen so who knows but just playing him gives the opposition something to worry about and if he should score a couple his price tag goes up
The ref was a definite homer Three yellows for nothing,pulls us back when we take a quick free kick so where is the consistency. |

A really enjoyable game upto the 94th minute
There was a variety in the way we played out from the back but if it is to become our norm Ramsdale has to improve his distribution To many times he under hit the out ball and put the m/f and defense under pressure
Archer continues to get himself into good positions but he has to start putting these chances to bed
Is the best use of AL as a starter for 60mins or as a impact sub for the last 30? He looked to still have something in the tank when he was subbed off
We have conceded 4 goals in two home games Three of those have come in the last few minutes of either half Is this a signe that fitness levels are not upto scratch |

Diblings run down the right early on lifted the team and the whole stadium The atmosphere then carried the players to the best spell of football we have seen from them this season We controlled the game and made utd look less than ordinary All our effort resulted in a penalty award because they just couldn't get the measure of Dibling
The penalty miss and their quick response deflated the stadium and the team and from there on there was only going to be one winner
I have yet to see a relpay of the first goal but from my seat it looked as if Rambo could have come for the cross and at least punched it clear
The tackle by JS was a definite red I still think the club should appeal it and possibly get the ban extended to 6 games |

RM is adament that we will not change the style of play from last season but he has changed it by going to a back 3 or 5 Let's return to 4 3 3 as we did at Cardiff I thought the Wednesday game was supposed to give him an idea of who was ready to start out of the newbies So why didn't he start Archer Ramirez and Dibling,
Stevens needs to be a club captain and not a team captain I don't think Bednarek and THB trust him and he was involved in 2 of the give aways |

At least it means we will keep KWP because no one would want him or any of our players on that performance
We thought a few of our squad were PL quality but Forrest showed us they and the RM formation are a mile away at the moment
RM was adament that the playing style wouldn't change but it has His insistence on keeping Stevens in the team has led to a total change in formation Please go back to a
4 3 3 line up The extra man gained in m/f isn't worth it if it's JS
NF were quicker,stronger and more skillful than us all over the pitch and the only surprise was that they only scord one |

No one needs to tell AM that his goof cost us at least a point 30000 fans have seen it for a long time
That aside our performance overall was pretty good It was them hanging on not us It's the age old problem of putting your chances away. |

Can't give any Saints player less than a ten Not just for this game but for the whole season they and the backroom guys have given us
RM said he would give us a team to be proud of TICK
RM Sainsbury's there was only one aim ie to get back to the PL TICK
I intend to enjoy the moment and worry about the future next month |

I could never work out what formation we were playing Was it a back 3 or4 or5 and at times I don't think the players knew either Gnoto got around the back of JS with ease who may have been better playing as a traditional left back without having the freedom to roam
Downes once again showed how important he is to the team and to the possession game and KWP was a star once again
Not many clear cut chances but two got taken after good build up play
That's a double over Leeds a double over WBA and unbeaten by Norwich certainly looking at the stats we have a good chance of winning the play offs

McCarthy made some important saves yesterday and for a change was NOT beaten at his near post Unfortunately the defence in front of him has got used to having Bazunu as an extra defender playing the sweeper/keeper game.Mac is not comfortable playing that role and can make his centre backs nervous
Our second choice mid field failed to step up and we're over run If this had ended 0-0 we would probably have called it atypical end of season game with nothing to play for me
Hopefully RM and his team will be able to get us back on track with a whole week's training in front of them
I do suspect that Sports Republic will replace RM if we are not promoted Personally I think that would be a massive mistake as the experience they have gained this year will be invaluable next season if we are still a championship team |

Missied chances last season cost us our PL place Missed chances this season looks like costing us an automatic promotion It could also cost us a play off promotion
How many matches have there been when we only play one half Sometimes the first sometimes the second I do wonder if the coaching team give them too much information at half time which leaves them confused |
