    I keep telling myself we are not one of the 3 worst teams in the league. However on current form we are the worst. There is always 1 team that gets dragged into the **** and at the moment we are doing a better job of that than Bournemouth.

    Yeah, I'm not a particular fan of Puel, but I don't know what he can do with this. We sit back, holes open in midfield and defense. We attack, holes open in midfield and defense.

    Yup. There's a bloke in row K who is personally responsible for our defensive frailties.

    Exactly. He should've stumped up the cash for a defender. Calls himself a fan and everything...

    Yep same,think he is a good manager,but he has been stitched up with rotten luck and a poor transfer window.

    Running out of options now with Boufal injured, plus everybody else looks rattled. Not our finest performance thus far. If Puel can turn this run of form around, he's a top coach. Squad now looking very lightweight and any other key injuries will be disastrous.
    We're probably not going to win 4 - 3

    Agreed. If we lose this match and next week against Sunderland then we may actually be in the relegation battle.

    Can anyone HONESTLY see a halt to this slide ?

    Late flurry of attacking from Saints, but as usual, too little too late. Where is this energy when we arent losing.

    I got derided for saying exactly this an hour before the See a game.

    Most seasons one team spirals towards the drop, and it has been known EFL or FA finalists too.

    Our form is relegation form, quite simply the manager must change our approach or he may fingers his PhD arriving on his doormat. I simply can't believe this is all down to luck.

    Anyone who says they are not worried about going down is lying.

    We will get the 2 wins from the next 14 games we need to stay up. Actually we might even get 3.

    I didn't say it was the cowds fault. I stated that its been embarrassing before and after we scored.
