WTF is happening. 2 goals down at home to 10 man Stoke City

We are so slow and deliberate in our approach play. Our forwards look devoid of ideas, Downs and Archer look lethargic and disinterested.
4 games and not one goal from a forward.

Downs : has he been suggested by the friend of a friend of someone that once played football when he was 9!
As 2408 says, not only disinterested but he makes Djenepo look like Pele. His two glaring missed since he joined us, are not even school boy errors. they were amateurish beyond belief.
As I have always said, I am a fan of Fraser, superb crosser of the ball. and finisher when he is not having to be the provider!
But with Downs and Archer not being sharp enough, clever enough or even interested, good balls into the box are pointless.
The ability of players has worked its way down the Premier League and now filling the Championship.
Top quality players throughout the Championship.
No more long ball rubbish, it’s clever, intelligent, skilful, tactically good football.
Meanwhile we get rid of Taul P, who showed us he can score once given the chance, bring on the ‘injured one’ from the bench who misses a sitter! Ok it was offside! But it was a sitter!
We have a manager who is much smarter than the Rangers clown, but we are still playing way too slow…
KWP was a big source of fast attacks.
At least the manger knows who are stragglers and is not playing them .
but we need more quality, more experience and a god damn striker who can bang goals in!
Saints have had a history of them and were so important!

Pedestrian, pathetic and pointless (literally) sums up that display.
You shouldn’t wait until 85 mins to start playing with urgency. Our lot stroll with the ball and generally play it the way they’re facing, meanwhile the opponents reshape and are back in position before we look up.
I’ve been saying for ages, we are not good enough by a country mile to be a top 6 side and frankly we don’t deserve to be.
Where’s the hunger and ambition? They just play safe and actually, they don’t do that very well either.
