    I think the bottom 3 are going down. I hate to see Brentford pick up points but love seeing Chelski getting humped at the Bridge.
    I wonder if they were still chanting Abramovich's name?

    If we don't have a major overhaul of this squad in the summer we will go down next season...if we stop up this year.

    The front four today of Rodrigo, James, Harrison and Raphinha all need to leave. They have no goal threat at all. You can add sicknote Bamford and Roberts to that list.Forshaw should be a squad player, not a starter. We need a new left back and a goalkeeper to keep Meslier on his toes. Klich can go because if I see him play like he is hungover again and then sulk about being subbed, I will gladly drive him back to Poland myself. Try playing better Matteusz and then you might just stay on.

    We also need a goalkeeping coach as Mesliers positioning on free kicks is embarrassing now. It's not improved so what the **** we are doing on video analysis god only knows.

    I have no idea why we're so **** in the final third. Surely a coach can see what we all see. I just wonder if you can teach composure

    Started really well we were well on top for 30 mins then after that we turned into a different team we played like we did against Villa. 2nd half was horrendous we couldn't pass and created near to nothing. I guess a point is a point but these are the games we really need to win. Some of the passing 2nd half was Sunday league stuff and Meslier can't kick a football for dear life the amount of times he gave the ball away was truly awful. We are holding on but only because the teams below us are falling apart. Play that 2nd half performance at Watford we will struggle. It all looked so good then reality kicked back in very disappointed with about 50-60 mins of that game but positives from the other 30-40

    Good game lads (Saints fan). You had the better of it over all, think you should have had a pen too, but a point each is probably fair as well. You can't go giving Ward-Prowse free-kicks there. Good luck with the rest of your season. <cheers>

    We definitely lack composure mate, they have no time to think and just kick the ball hoping a team mate picks it up
    when they have more time they'll pass to a team mate with three oppo players around him instead of a player in space, frustrating as ****

    Just to point out that I started watching after 20 minutes due to streams not quite up to standard. Any complaints about the ratings should be made to @ellandback for the dodgy streams. Leave me out of it. (Don't be too harsh, he did come up with the goods eventually. Cheers Ell)

    Meslier - 6. Fantastic save first half but was dodgy with his kicking and his positioning for the free kick was woeful.

    Ayling - 7. Thought he had a great game. The Ayling flop!

    Llorente - 6. Needs to rediscover the form of last season. He looks nervy at best.

    Cooper - 8. Solid game on his comeback. No complaints.

    Dallas - 7. Played full back and winger at times. Great running.

    Forshaw - 6. Kept it nice and simple but needs to move the ball quicker.

    Klich - 6. Very hit and miss. Sick of him sulking when subbed. You've been **** for 18 months fella.

    Rodrigo - 8. Another good showing. Keep at it.

    Raphinha - 6. Got his assist but I always think we should reap more goals and assists given the positions he finds himself in.

    Harrison - 6. Scuffed his goal but they all count. Solid but unspectacular.

    James - 4. He ran around up front. Did I miss anything else?

    Subs.

    Gelhardt - 7. Runs in to dead ends too often but he lifts the team and the crowd when he comes on. He tries to make things happen. Should start up top instead of James.

    Struijk - na.

    Phillips - 6. Great to see him back. No surprise we started to look the better side when he came on.

    We just love putting the pressure back on ourselves, that would and should have been a huge three points, I’m so sick of this season, it doesn’t help knowing if we stay up we have 3/4 of a team that need replacing

    Well, a points done you no harm with the other results, you'll never be caught now. Much better than I thought from Saints and it was good to be able to share a JWP special with you. Nice to talk to you boys in a civilised way, all the best. See you next season.

    The guy behind Prowsey knew what was coming.

    Don’t see the game… but reports elsewhere didn’t seem to think we were as sh*t as the consensus on here

    on to Watford, they’ve not been playing too bad - obviously desperate for a win, but an absolute must not lose game.

    Could have been out of sight by half time but as usual missed loads of chances.

    Final ball again @milkyboy. Plenty of opportunities to break in numbers but then an easy pass goes unnoticed or a wrong option taken. A Brazilian International that struggles to control a ball. Harrison controlling the ball like a boss but doesn't cross it. Klich fading badly after half an hour. Etc etc.

    Usual frustrations. I'm not willing to defend the players anymore. Every single one of the lads who play in the final third should be open to offers at this point. They are not producing. Scum must be laughing their arses off about 25 million for James. He can't play football.
