    But Lallana has heard of him and watched lots of his game and rates him so we are ok. Please notice the sarcasm!

    Bright side is we can't get worse next year.
    The above statement may be incorrect, but I'm trying to be optimistic

    Another bright side is that we will not go lower in the Premier League next year. We may even gain a place or two over the next few months.

    Seems some progress which after last week is a positive for me, but let's see, I know points are the essential thing, but incremental improvement is a start.

    I would say 5 formations per game is pretty forward thinking. Unfortunately that forward is forward into the championship

    Apparently Rasmus was there today and wasn't happy. Its whether he's got the bottle to do anything about it....

    Worked out so well for Conservative Party United, when they decided to have a third one.

    Arsenal 4 - 2 , goal scoring is easy when you have genuine strikers...

    Fair play. May as well throw the players under the bus at this point

    They would probably miss the bus too.

    The big issue I have is that Jones had 5 weeks with the players to work on tactics etc and is this really the best he can come up with? OK, he's not going to be able to improve all aspects of what's been going wrong but I thought he might at least fire the players up, put a backbone back in the team. They're still giving opponents far too much time on the ball. I mean, get in their faces for ****s sake, make some challenges. So what if we pick up a few more yellow cards? And we keep giving away stupid goals. Really not good enough.

    He’s been throwing them under the bus since the first game.

    It’s just laughable that we are wasting our winnable run of fixtures with this guy in charge.

    Beggars belief that a PL club can be this stupid. It’s actually hilarious. The most saints thing ever.

    Can anyone summarise our approach so far under NJ? Genuinely, I haven’t seen any of the matches so far.

    Are we really going route 1 football? What formations did we switch to?
