Just so strange from Ralph. Go more defensive with the same players as last year in a different formation. Losing 2-1 takes of the lone striker for a midfielder and leaves the best hole up forward on the bench. No excuses now. Has had time to work on the team, been backed so far by the board, new coach plus coach promotions.Team still feels and looks so fragile when conceding Could have had a real go at them today as a free hit. May have lost by the same score but playing like this will win no games or fans.
Nah, it's heat of the moment stuff from most fans. Everyone feels passionately about Saints but in truth the money in the game is marginalising us more and more. We have to consistently over perform to even survive these days. That said, we are entitled to a bit more 'effort' than we saw from the defence today. I don't mind losing. I don't even fear relegation. But I expect effort and I expect entertaining football.
Bazunu KWP Bednarek Salisu Perraud JWP Lavia Romeu Aribo Che redders ^ there you go Ralph. A line up that actually has a chance against Leeds. You’re welcome
We had 5 minutes of total madness which has dearly cost us. We were well in the game until the farcical own goal. The new and young signings need time to settle. I think the Leeds game will give us a more accurate summary of where we are.
Ward Prowse laughing and joking around with Dier at full time, good from captain fantastic after a 4-1 loss
Took the lead, surrendered the lead, let Sessegnon score his first-ever PL goal, let Dier score his first in three years and proceeded to get embarrassed. Saints are back.
