    I don’t blame Solak. I do blame Ankersen.

    Mental. Not that it’s his fault, but since he entered the club we have been pathetic.

    Cheap option and absolutely no point

    Look at Leeds, it is pretty logical that we would be looking in the same market and they can’t attract anyone despite being far more attractive than us. Think most people are off the opinion “anyone but Jones” but I have no confidence Selles is any good and probably will get just as **** results as we have seen this season

    Solak's cash is the only good thing about the takeover so far.

    I genuinely think if it was just Solak inveating and not getting involved with football at all, we would have faired better with the hierachy we had under Gao.

    He wasn't cheap at all, quite the opposite infact.

    Well that’s depressing. Just like basically everything else about saints at the moment

    Sorry! I imagine he'd be getting a decent pay day too once we sack him.

    Just get rid of the useless twat asap. WHO IS THEIR BEST PLAYER? ANSWER NEVES. 10 AGAINST 11? Mark their best player? No, drop deep and let him run the the game. Is the man steeped in football knowledge, or a complete and utter waste of space? Answers on a postcard to the 2nd division.com..

    Yep, zero faith in SR. We’ve gone from a Chinese guy who couldn’t rub a bean together (outside Shanghai) to a crowd who have spent >£250 & employed a disastrous PE teacher (with zero PR skills). Unbelievable. Bewildering. I haven’t got a clue what they’re likely to do anytime soon. Unfathomable. Btw; apart from being a bit of a cock, with zero managerial skill at this level, it’s not his fault. Who wouldn’t take the offer / promotion? And he ain’t gonna resign. If he leaves, it’s with a full pay off.

    He also left us one-on-one against Traore (first Perraud, and then Salisu when Perraud went off). Totally inexcusable against 10 men.

    I said last week when Everton beat Arsenal that McNeil was my MOTM. And it was nothing to do with him going forward. The defensive shift he put in, to enable Everton to double-up on that side against Saka, was a massive reason for Everton kept that clean sheet. They marked him out of the game - and they didn't even have an extra player to assist them in doing that.

    BBC: V Kompany - "Nathan [Tella] is a player that gives us so much in so many ways, but I always put forward the effort he brings to the team The effort gets us where we are.”

    Trying to comprehend NJ’s statement in similar position?

    Today, for some reason, seems same as when we lost to MU at home all those many moons ago & got relegated from PL.

    The greatest shame is that we missed out on a potential professional collaboration between Ralph Krueger and Nathan Jones.
