Seems like I'm renting free space in your head there Bants . It's a nice big roomy space, shame about all the bollocks in here though ?
Well done for going out on a limb and saying we're lose to Man City, ill call you Oracle from now on.
It's you mixing and twisting things though because you can't understand context between different opposition. What I said before had no bearing on today's game and Man City. You DO remember me writing these games off a few weeks back .so finding positives in any of them is, wait for it .a positive.
I tend to listen to experts in all things regarding all matters and when it comes to football you can't get much better than the man pep himself. Was he trying to console an under pressure RM, sure, but the fact remains.
Pep, Man City players, pundits all saying impressed/inspired by how saints played/trying to play. Direct quote from pep "One of the best teams in the premier league with defending with the ball" . Now wether you take that with a pinch of salt or not I'd rather listen to pep than Bants and Co ??? that's just is what it is.
It's like an old man's moaning group in here at times. Any other manager in charge with us loses only 1-0 there today and you guys would be kissing their arse.
In all honesty I find it madness that so many of you guys, not all of you, are unable/unwilling to look for/accept positives. You want him sacked ect and that's fine but of all of you who do NONE of you can prove that a new manager is going to be any different.no matter how much of an Oracle you now are Bants. There's a chance someone comes in for the better BUT there's just as equal a chance that not only does a new manager come in and doesn't change anything in terms of results.that we get relegated and when we do, end up stagnating in the lower leagues.
We've been there with Ralph. The usual suspects were moaning the same then as they are now and look how that situation all ended up. More belief was needed back then, we had some awesome players ect.
I said ultimately RM would need to go, mainly because of supporters such as in here ect (tunnel vision) and as I said November would be the deciding month and so going forward were seeing wether he deserves to keep his job or not with the things his learned or hasn't leaned ect.

One of the best teams in the premier league with defending with the ball was a compliment from Pep. 1 point from 9 games would prove we are probably one of the worst teams in the premier league of attacking with the ball!
Just remind me, does a team get 3 points for drawing or not conceding goals? What about only conceding 1 goal but not scoring any?
Yet again the substitutions were like for like until the last 5 minutes and then he takes Archer off!
Coaching manual formations and patterns don’t win games in the premier league anymore, flexibility in shape and personnel often do.
RM decision to play Manning as a left winger against Leicester was good, Cooper didn’t do anything about it until the 30 minute mark and they were 2 down by then. That is the only serious tweak RM has done all season, it worked but once Leicester had changed shape then Saints should have done the same at half time.
The problem with RM is predictability in the team shape and continued style of play. There are some excellent players in the squad that are seriously underperforming, is it the manager or is the squad squeamish and weak? I’ll go for the manager.

??? Leslee, your logic baffles me. You write well done for going out on a limb and saying we will lose to Man City and call me an oracle for it… then the very next sentence you explain that you’ve wrote weeks ago that you said we will lose to Man City. how does that make sense in your brain?
Since you’ve found a name for me il have a good think about a name for you. cunning comes to mind, well something like that anyway. il have a little think about it and get back to you ??.
Instead of certain people on here having to prove to you that a new manager would be any better, why don’t you attempt to prove how a new manager would be any worse than it is right now.
Also a big space filled with bollocks is right up your street ain’t it so why are you complaining?
