    The excuses all fall by the wayside when you consider every other team in the PL has had all of the same problems we have. We are the worst Premier League side of 2021 by a distance. Worse than Sheffield United since the New Year.

    You must have a short memory. Far worse under Pellegrino and Hughes.

    Looks can be deceiving, no disrespect to Ralph, but the old boy has more idea what's what than our Ralph.

    I don’t think anyone is likely to argue much.

    Agree with you but worth remembering it hasn't been like this all season. Up until January we were aggressive off the ball and attacked quickly and directly when we won it back. First half of the season we were great to watch.

    I understand fatigue, but there is no excuse for this lasting 17 games. This is like we had a meeting and agreed football was not for us.

    I would actually say we have been worse since December than we were under Hughes and Pellegrino, that is how bad we have been.

    Which is mental considering this season also contained our best ever PL start (I think).

    I’ll stop the negative posts... at some point, maybe.

    "Southampton were actually top of the league back in November" is the new nine nil.

    Benteke is really going to bully our powderpuff centre backs.

    I can never be arsed to look at statistics, but if the season started Janaury, l would think we would certainly be favourites to be relegated.

    Hmm.. not so sure... back then it was the hope that killed you... now I switch off as I can’t see where any goal is coming from.... I thought after the FA cup that I couldn’t see where we were going to kick up another point from and although not completely right... it’s not far from it....I’m fed up of watching players struggle to string passes together in the opposition half... I remember in the championship just before we went down... it was pretty awful then.... but now I just feel numb to it...

    Oh my.

    A fast attack, and we did the thing that gets music.
