US Virgin Islands 2
Bermuda 3
Cayman Islands 1
Aruba 1
Haiti 4
Martinique 1
United States 2
Mexico 2

BTW these are total goals v the relevant country ie he didn’t score 4 in one game v Honduras

Looks like another 💩 striker signing from SR

If Arma goes and we get this donkey we kiss goodbye any hope of promotion

His stats are really impressive

He's a 30 year old who has played for Feyemoord for two seasons scoring 1 goal in 15 games.

Before that he played for 3 seasons and scored 10 goals in 68 games

Prior to that he was at Valladolid and scored 8 in 19. Before that 1 goal in 9 for Club Brugge and 7 in 29 for Waregem

So very much a poor man's Onuachu

Adam Armstrong off to Wolves for £7 million then....

I'm sure SR have already lined up an 18 year old striker playing in the Macedonian second tier for £10m to replace him

We’re playing well but only 1-0 up. You can almost see what’s coming

It highlights our continued need for a striker

No Armstrong Or Archer In Team Or On Bench
at 12:12 31 Jan 2026

In 3 seasons Stewart has never played 90 minutes for Saints and has only started 4 times

This means it’s extremely likely that we will be relying on an untried U21 forward

I dunno, Armas contract expires June 2027.

I could see us getting rid while we can still command a fee. If on the highly unlikely event we scrape promotion we know that Armstrong is nowhere near a PL player so it might be we get rid now

If you believe the rumours Arma and Archer could be on the move so with only injury prone Ross Stewart left it would suggest we might be getting a striker.

The only thing worrying me is SR's clear inability to identify anyone who could hit the side of a barn with a banjo

The list of shame so far reads:

Sulemana – cost £22m, played 74 games, scored 4 goals
Onuachu – cost £18m, played 40 games, scored 4 goals
Mara - cost £11m, played 64 games, scored 8 goals
Edozie - cost £10m, played 63 games, scored 6 goals
Orsic - cost £8m, played 5 games, scored 0 goals
Stewart - cost £10m, played 29 games, scored 4 goals
Archer - cost £15m, played 35 games, scored 9 goals
Brereton- Diaz - cost £7m, played 13 games, scored 0 goals
Damion Downs - cost £7m, played 14 games, scored 0 goals

I should add appearnces include sub appearances

So in three and a half seasons we’ve bought 9 strikers who between them cost £108m, played 337 times and scored a total of 35 goals

That’s one goal every 9.6 games and £3.086m per goal

Staggering !!!

Personally, I never thought he was anything out of the ordinary.

He definately has skill but I never thought he delivered particularly and he definately wasn't a team player. Just my opinion

I think Eckert was trying to be clever and outwit Mousinho, when all he had to do was pick the team that outplayed Blades and roll Portsmuff over on theeir own patch

As Sky said the fact that Fellows was dropped meant that L2 standard donkey Ogilvie was able to be an attacking threat rather than probably getting sent off for bringing Fellows down continuously

Let's not beat about the bush. Eckert has taken 1 point from Norwich, Oxford and Portsmuff all of whom were in the bottom three and struggling with injuries

It's just not good enough.

Unlike previous performances I can't fault the players. This was entirely down Eckert picking the wrong team and tactics

Time to cut him adrift

We had the chance to go within 5 points of the playoff positions with a win today. With 17 games left it's still achievable with the right manager in charge

What did Azaz do v Blades to get selected and what did Fellows and Stewart do v Blades to get dropped?

We pick Armstrong over Stewart and then go long

Much better tonight
at 17:13 22 Jan 2026

A much better performance and a deserved win against one of the division’s form sides.

The 4-4-2 / 4-4-1-1 formation worked really well and we weren't getting over run in midfield like in previous weeks. The fact that we dropped Wood meant that there was no hesitant sideways passing or passing back to the keeper. Welington showed defensively and going forward why he has to start over Manning.

I thought everyone had a good game probably with the exception of Azaz who should have scored two or three goals.

For me the stand out player was probably THB but the case could be argued for Jander, Fellows, Scienza, Stewart or Jelert who all had good games.

It was great to see Jelert and Fellows combining on the right and Welington and Scienza on the left. It was good to see Stewart making space and holding the ball up.

Even Downes had a good game. My only criticism of Downes is when he receives a pass he immediately knocks it back to the player who’s passed it to him without looking up. Often he’s in masses of space and could just turn and move forward but he doesn’t look up. If you look at the players who continue to play in this negative way it’s mainly Wood, Downes and Manning who have had this style of football ingrained on their brains by Martin at Saints and Swansea. Personally when Charles is fit I’d replace Downes with him.

Put a run together now and anything is possible but we do need a striker in this window
