If I made a team of Saints fans from this forum I'd be very disappointed to be 4-0 down at this stage. We have been piss poor today . ****ing embarrassing
Sheesh, this isn't going the way you want it to .. It's early days in the season though, I'm sure you'll pull through. Realistically, how well are any teams going to do against Arsenal at the moment ?? Games will come soon, which you will get points in. Good Luck!
Hardly unexpected. I said a few weeks ago to a friend at work that Saints will be destroyed in this league. It's a shame as we have done so well in the last three seasons as we have worked our way up this league. I don't think it is any shame to lose against Arsenal away but I think the commentary is suggesting that we are being rolled over quite comfortably.
How? We have done nothing good, at all, poor defending, really bad midfield and not one chance at goal. Sloppy, indecisive and wasteful..
I said earlier about never seen so many individual mistakes...nobody has stepped up (apart from Lambo as he hadn't had a chance).
At the end of the day though, we were always likely to lose away to Arsenal, so this doenst really change that much. We need a much better second half though. It is almost like the whole team is knackered, we are just nowhere near them
Davis's positioning has been bad. But why blame Davis when it's the CB's who have allowed players to get open? But why blame the CB's when it was Fox who lost his man? But why blame Fox when it's the midfield who has been sitting on the ball and giving away possession? But why blame the whole midfield when it was Davis who made a silly tackle? etc. This is a total disaster. Everyone is terrible today.
Swan I think most Saints fans expect us to go straight down but I got a lot of abuse at work last week when I argued that we would not get more than 25 points this season and could expect to a similar kind of experience as Swindon and Derby have done in the Premiership. The manner and speed with which we appear to have been turned over of what has alarmed most Saints fans. Goal for Fox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is genuinely embarrassing. If we can keep it down to 4 then we should be pleased. But by what is being said on Solent this is a worryingly poor performance. Edit - Danny Fox scores. Didn't even muster a cheer.
