Yes Flynn Downes serving 1 match suspension after his booking on Tuesday. I'm a bit surprised he risking Cam Bragg at the Lions Den, that will be a big challenge for him but he deserves that after his impressive debut. But with Oriel on the bench, he'll come on late in game to see the game out. But we really are going to miss Leo, he's been a stand out for us & completely changed the way we play. |  | |  |

We're missing our engine room in Leo Scienza. He loves to drive forward & creates opportunities for others. Plus he terrorises defences when he runs at them. We're gonna have to do this the hard way today if we're going to get something from the game. I would take a point all things considered. |  |

Millwall are playing well and hitting a lot 0of long balls some of which we are struggling to cope with. Two excellent saves - one either end - have kept it goalless. I agree though, could go either way. But judging by the number of corners and play in our half, Millwall you would reckon are shading it. But maybe they just may get a bit complacent… |  | |  |

Well it certainly is not Slack Jack, dreadful defending today, too slow, sideways and backwards. We definately missed the pace of Leo in the attack. |  |

How on earth does he get picked endlessly |  | |  |
| No Leo on 17:18 - Nov 29 with 1489 views | 1885_SFC | That was a real slog today. Just when you think we've done enough to earn a point, we concede a sloppy goal at the death - reminiscent of days gone by. Fair play to Millwall. They did their homework, worked their socks off all game & got the rewards. Sometimes football just sucks. Today was one of those days. |  |

I have said this for years yet alone making him Captain!!!. i remember we played Swansea away absolutely smashed em, Slack Jack came on and we nearly lost the game, it is the same as Aribo, why play him he isnt interested and causes more issues, today was another example. To be fair to Millwall they deserved it today we were awful. The subs did not help us much either. [Post edited 30 Nov 8:07]

Stephens and Aribo are more trouble than they are worth On the pitch and in the dressing room Very clever millionaires. |  |

| No Leo on 19:44 - Nov 29 with 1151 views | City_boy | What a frustrating day today. We slipped back into our old ways, of playing across the back for too long and again the wide men were left isolated. It is no co-incidence that when Stephen plays we are slow and predictable playing from the bank. Millwall deserved it today. They worked hard and kept us in our own half for long periods. We defiantly missed Leo, and his driving runs. Aribo did nothing when he came on. he Looked slow and offered nothing going forward. We looked weaker when he came on. This was my first visit to Millwall. It was abolsuite hell hole to get away from the ground. Kept waiting on the bridge for 40 mins, waiting for home fans to march past Saints fans and police cordon. Finally, to the group of middle aged guys arguing and threatening each other during the game(Block 50), grow up ! [Post edited 30 Nov 8:01]

Agreed Grumpy. I think the biggest compliment I can pay Leo is this: Today without Leo was similar to 30/30+ years ago watching a Saints team without Matt Le Tiss if he was out injured (or dropped by the village idiot Branfoot!). He really is the heartbeat of the side. IMO, he also improves the performances of some of the other players as he creates opportunities at such pace others will get a pass with more space and time than normal thus giving them a better chance to be effective too as the opposition are constantly on the back foot. If anyone does not watch the regular club updates on YouTube check out the SFC Pitchside Unseen videos, there’s one for every game, and they are footage shot from the touchline and give a very different insight into a game compared to footage shot on high from the main gantry. On the PSU footage Leo looks unplayable at times so my compliment stands, albeit I accept the fact they were very different kinds of players. |  | |  |
