Yes. Watts is ok too , it’s not all doom and gloom ,it’s time for these kids to shine. Tella showed the way last game against Leeds. |  |

Romeu out for 3 months on 14:44 - Feb 26 with 1434 views | pjt50 | That's a huge blow & is going to leave the defence even more exposed. Hopefully Diallo will be back for when the cup campaign restarts. All for blooding the youngsters but you don't want to be putting them into a team that's struggling as much as we are at the moment. Interesting that Ralph is now talking about needing a bigger squad which is the opposite of what he was saying earlier in the season. |  |

Romeu out for 3 months on 14:44 - Feb 26 with 1431 views | TimSaint | Fractured ankle - thanks to that fvckin awful pitch at Leeds Out for 3 months - so the rest of the season - or back for the Cup Final ? :-) Any chance Diallo has recovered yet, or is at least back in training ? Don't even know who we could play there apart from Jankowitz. I seem to remember Armstrong playing there for a bit - perhaps v Man U ? Failing that there is always Jack Stephens - who some on here were suggesting he would be better as a holding mid that a CB anyway !! Add to that, Minamino - slight hamstring problem KWP - no idea when he will be back, was hoping he would only miss 1 or 2 Diallo - need him back !! Smallbone - would be obvious choice as DM - but out for 6 months Walcott - can't play v Everton anyway, but missed to many already Obafemi - kind of forgot he existed McQueen - no idea how he is getting on and if he will ever play again, let alone for Saints. Think his contract is up this summer, so will shall see. |  |

Or.......... Recall Lemina - Need a DM and may also help prevent Fulham from catching us Elyounoussi - worth a go ? Lennon has left them so not sure if he will be picked from now on and we have Walcott and Minamino injured, Redmond and Djenepo failing to impress and only Armstrong performing well and Tella showing potential. |  |

Romeu out for 3 months on 15:04 - Feb 26 with 1402 views | DorsetIan | With KWP and Diallo involved (and assuming no more injuries), we can still be solid enough defensively to allow us to continuing with our 'high press' type game. Otherwise, and unless Jankowiez comes up trumps, I feel we are going to be extraordinarily vulnerable defensively and that we therefore need to abandon how would like to play and find a formation/tactics - however boring - that will ensure that we keep picking up points. I would take a win and three draws from the remaining games at this stage. Anything more a bonus. One question for me would be whether Ralph can adopt to a much more defensive style? |  |

I did think Stephens as he seem to fancy himself as a midfielder I mean we are in a bad bad way, literally no solid midfielders available?! Just watch Tom Davies have a blinder against us If we weren't in a relegation battle before we are now |  | |  |

I'm guessing he was following the club rule book then and the aim for sustainability, but now realising that actually, we need a decent depth of squad to include experienced players |  | |  |

Watts for sure I am not sure Jankewitz deserves another chance after handing in a transfer request then karate chopping that United player Wheres Slattery? Can we recall anyone, surely we need too? Valery? Lemina........ |  | |  |

So it’s his fault that so many players have been injured? I see more people supporting him than “giving him a wide berth” which is not unreasonable given the poor hand he has been dealt. As for Puel and Hughes, remind me again when they had people talking about the great football they played and when we were top of the league with them. |  | |  |
Romeu out for 3 months on 16:43 - Feb 26 with 1266 views | Saintsforeverj | Big blow to lose Romeu. He has for me, been arguably our most motivated and hard working player. The worry is who do we replace him with? No Diallo and no right back. Lemina is on loan, we sold Harrison Reed, Josh Sims went, Vokins went, Valery went and couldn't we do with the experience of Shane Long now that Minamino is also out? The club made these decisions and it's false economy if we end up finishing 17th or worse. |  |

I'm not sure you have the correct meaning of 'a wide berth' . |  |

Romeu out for 3 months on 17:33 - Feb 26 with 1204 views | 1885_SFC | Huge loss losing Romeu for the rest of the season. Typically, he tried to play on the other night before realising the ankle was fooked. It's just a shame that in a game when just about everyone else bottled it & gave up - none of them showed Romeu's guts n determination for the cause. Now we're hoping Diallo is fit sooner rather than later & that he stays fit for the whole remainder of the season with no Romeu available. Can this season get any shÃttier? (Don't answer that!!!). |  |

Jankewitz needs another chance , yes he was foolish but he’s a kid, he’ll learn . If Ralphs got anything about him he would have had a long chat with him . |  |

Slattery is on loan at Gillingham, also injured at the moment. I think Tom O Connor is there also, as well as Tyreke Johnson, but he's gone permanently. |  | |  |

It’s a perfect opportunity for him to show what he can do if he gets a start on Monday. We could do with some good news! |  | |  |
Romeu out for 3 months on 14:28 - Feb 27 with 820 views | I_would | Romeu. Been in a bit of form. Tough tackles. Saved a goal the other day single handed. Been more attacking in the last third. Prowse, not injured. |  |
