    No game changers on the bench.

    Disagree. Long, Obafemi and Dejenpo would all be an improvement right now.

    Unsure why we are playing romeu against a team happy to let us have the ball and hit in the counter. Similar issue against palace.

    Kind of what happens when you sell three CMs and sign none.

    The one thing you are guaranteed with Saints is disappointment. So nothing new tonight. Life at the moment really is ****.

    Why are we so crap at the start of the season. The last time we had a good start was when we were promoted. If any one can correct me on that please do. Its almost like we enjoy making it difficult for ourselves!!!!

    It is difficult to fathom that this is basically the team that finished last season so well, surely Stuey is not that important for us.

    It's also not much different from the team that's spent much of the past two years in or around the relegation zone. We went into lockdown losing to Newcastle, West Ham and Burnley.

    People get too low during our bad days and too high during our good days. Unless we actually strengthen the squad (for the millionth transfer window) we'll always be hugely inconsistent.

    6 minutes is not long for the two subs to get three goals.

    Yep just seen the score. One of the two comps i actually care about and we've ****ed it at the first hurdle. Fuming.

    #seasonover indeed.

    Wake me up when FA Cup 3rd round draw arrives. Tossers.

    I have to say that i've been very impressed by Brentford, well organised defensively and a very good GK and took their chances.

    This is genuinely concerning. Call me whatever, but I do worry about the season ahead right now.

    From a lack of personnel, to poor decisions. The signs arent great right now.

    It is also basically the same team that was awful for the first 5 months of the season.

    Jekyll or Hyde?
