    Instantly look better with the added threat of boufal.

    I'm fine with it... my 'target' a month ago was always to sack him at the end of December, so still two weeks to go yet. Although I do hope we've been talking to replacements.

    Could apply to Newcastle again this season! In fact, both sentences could, if the takeover drags on and Ashley refuses to spend money in January in the meantime.

    How many thought the same last year when Puel was in charge ?

    Perhaps that's part of it .

    Is any RECENT saints manager actually in charge ? ......

    Boufal is on and we’re immediately more offensive and dangerous (and playing in a way that would have suited Gabbi). Chelsea have been nothing special, but we’ve been playing in our shells again.

    surely if you get pushed off the ball by Redmond its got to be considered a dive?

    Marginal foul, but never a yellow, unless it was for mouthing off.

    Anyone want Redmond? We will pay you to take him.

    Great that we've lost both full backs... (Right before the festive file-up!)

    Austin should never have been dropped. Can we keep this formation please? Thanks

    Chelsea timewasting, but they still get to take 2 free kicks after the 4 minutes.

    Full time 1-0.

    Huddersfield is a must win.

    Draw or lose and Pellegrino must be out of a job by 6pm next Saturday.

    Such a negative game.

    We are so cautious and so slow to attack with no creativity or link up with the striker.

    Chelsea were far from great and wasting time at the end. I think the early injury did not help and Bertrand also looks damaged, so it is worrying times.

    Not fussed by the scoreline. Losing 1-0 away to Chelsea is acceptable for me. But I'm certainly not walking away satisfied. Fail to win next weekend, and I suspect we might not see MP at SMS again.

    Hopefully (if we don't win).
