I’d certainly have taken that after 60 mins
Like he did at half time?
When we were 4 down …
So should he gave done it after 8 minutes, 16 minutes or 21 minutes?
Yeah, maybe … at least it then looks like we’re changing something rather than doing same old, same old. Never mind, only The Arse next who are also licking their wounds…
So there we have it.
Confirmation that Chelsea are officially not as good as Leicester or Man Utd.

I’m suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder after that, and I didn’t even stay till the end.

Glad I didn’t go
Pretty typical Saints drubbing.
Well it got to 0 - 6 and my mate who was driving us home said, “I’m off”
It was a first for both he and I…the first time in watching Saints for more than 65 years we left before the end.
It wasn’t just the poor form but the lack of any sort of effort. When Adam’s shot hit Mendy’s legs you knew we weren’t going to score today so what’s the point of staying to watch another potential 0 - 9, something I was confident would never happen again.
Apparently if Chelsea had wanted it, it would have happened again.

A Chelsea supporting mate texted to ask if I’d watched it. He reckoned that Lukaku was the difference today.

Think my Superbru may have been right 
Not sure they’re wise to ask. Fortunately I could reply that my matchday experience was made marginally better by my having Covid and not being there to witness the carnage.
And the team could improve the experience for us all by actually turning up!

I am a dope and so completed mine. I am sure my both barrels will be worth the square root of FA

Even by your standards of reactive, ill-informed bollocks, this is rather special. Let’s be rational here (and I’ll try to take your near-total lack of football knowledge into account too).
If all our central defenders were League One level at best, where would we be? Propping up the Prem, well adrift and heading for record low points and goals against tallies - that’s where we’d be. But we’re not, are we? Even if they were Championship level at best, much the same would apply, though rather less so - we’d be nailed to the bottom of the Prem but maybe not in quite such a cataclysmic state.
Our central defenders aren’t world class, but how many teams have a full set of three or four who are? A small minority of Prem clubs, no more than that.
I realise that I’m wasting my breath (or rather my typing skills) here, but what the fuck.

You are, our 3 centre backs are total shite.
So how come we’re not languishing at the bottom of the table, already relegated? With League One centre backs that’s where we’d be.
Because other players have been having the seasons of their careers ie JWP, WP and Romeu and covering up, our 3 main centre backs are not of the required standard, Adam Armstrong as centre forward isn’t of the required standard, our goal keepers aren’t of the required standard.
As an example to further my point, if we went down we wouldn’t sell them (probably couldn’t) we’d keep them.
They’re shit, full stop.
You obviously missed our goalkeeper playing today. You saw the scoreline and assumed he was shit, but you are wrong
