    The truly worrying aspect is that we are apparently trying to win the competition. I'd hate to see us try and play out a draw. There is unrest methinks. Oh very dear.

    Apart from a penalty, this will be four games without a goal if we don't score here. And you can't even say that we've been unlucky in front of goal over these four matches. Hardly a chance created.

    So much for our defence being the only worry.

    Did the ref stop the game? They don' t have to stop playing. They are the only team trying.

    This was lost the minute they scored. We seem to have no clue what to do and you have to blame Koeman, he decides the tactics.

    I think he has been taken over by aliens or something, 'cause he really doesn't seem to be the same manager at all.

    I hope Virgil has signed because he must be having second thoughts.

    I'm not sure Östlund could save us now...

    On the bright side, there's absolutely no way that Koeman can persist with this tactic come the weekend, is there? He cannot possibly continue to have us go long to Pelle after three such performances, right?

    Unbelievable.. For RK to start the game at 352 is understandable.. But now after all three subs and for us to be 4 at the back still is mental.. We may aswell go out 3-1 on agg with 3 at the back.. What is he playing at ?

    Martina starting is honestly the most bizarre tactical decision I've witnessed as a saints fan

    If we score, we'll go on to win this. Am certain.

    Unfortunately, I don't think we'll score.

    Koeman has been awful tonight as a manager. Sorry but it has to be said. Got his tactics wrong, took too long to change it and far too long to make subs.

    I suppose the difference is that we're used to problems going forward. We were relatively toothless towards the end of last season. I've only watched two or three games this season but our defence hasn't looked this shaky since before Adkins started picking Boruc.

    Maybe he's saving him extra time...
