Puncheon: We're better than our league position

Jason Puncheon Jason Puncheon

The player who has gone from outcast to potential saviour in less than a year believes Saints’ position in the league this season bears no resemblance to the squad’s talent.

Former QPR loanee Jason Puncheon produced a virtuoso performance on his return to Loftus Road, inspiring Saints to a crucial 3-1 victory that could have kept Nigel Adkins in a job.

A first away win of the season was not enough to move Saints up from 19th place, but Puncheon insists the side are now showing that they are far better than their position suggests.

“As a group we've always known that we shouldn’t be where we are,” he said.

It's funny isn't, a player who couldnt even get a game in league 1, who was loaned out is man of the match in a prem league clash.
I can remember saying on here that he was a class player and he should stay after his twitter remarks and all you naysayers saying no get rid of him,he is a traitor, he doesn't care about Saints.
It just shows what most of you really know about football on this site, not a lot.

It is a long time ago, but wasn't Puncheon ostracised for bullying Oxo? He may have been partly responsible for him deciding to leave in the end. Whatever the problem was,it was dealt with sensibly within the Club, peace was declared and all is well again. The only criticism of JP on Saturday was having got his goal, he then became a bit greedy looking for more!

Lets remember when he first come he was one of the best then he seem not want to play for us and he was loaned out at every club he showed how good he could be but soon fall out of favour an none of these clubs wanted to sign him so may be he has now got it into his head he has to play for us if he is to move on I don' think he will be a Matt Le God but the good news is wewom away and we need to build on this now with two home games that we need to win to move out of the bottom 3 so COYR's

I don't think people have doubted Puncheons footballing talent, just his attitude. Credit should go to NA for his management skills, and I hope JP is grateful, he could easily have fallen by the wayside.

How can you be greedy trying to score at the moment? At least he showed some passion,thats what Saints need.

He did well but was a little ambitious with some of the shots later on. However he deserves the praise for Saturday so enough said.

I was a little concerned at the small errors Gazza made though. Gazza is learning and impriving but QPR were poor and against better opposition we would have been punished more severely. Their goal was a bad mistake though and Gazza was in no mans land. something that should be sorted out in training.

We are most definitely better than our league position shows, so now we have tp prove that statement against a stronger team. Newcastle are a good test. I think we can beat them and keep our first clean sheet. Now THAT would re-establish us as a force to be reckoned with and boost team confidence.

The shape of the team on Saturday looked strong, we need to cut down the miss passes, but generally that looked like a very strong unit that will be above the bottom six by the end of the season.

Reason to be cheerful ..............

Shaky display by Gazza, at fault for the QPR goal. Still, voted ahead of Kelvin in the recent poll, bit like Bart in more ways than one perhaps.

We all knew that JP had the potential to be a class player but his application didn't match his talent (for whatever reason).

Agreed.. Doesnt his contract run out at the end of the season?

He plays well when he wants to but as Nigel would say "Hard work beats Talent when Talent doesnt work hard"

For me he is still a bit predictatble but he showed up a QPR side low on comitment. His best performance though, I hope that this is a springboard for a glittering Saints career but im not holding my breath.

The best I think we can hope for is an effort to put himself in the shop window that will help keep us up.

Two things from the QPR game for me.
Gaston is a luxury ( and a very good one ), but should be used accordingly. When Davis came on, Saints were no worse and Davis attacked as much as Gaston did. I think Gaston is better at home and coming on when opposition legs are tired . His skills are fantastic. However often for the 1st half we need work rate and I would consider a 5th midfielder ( davis or ward prowse ), and use Gaston more tactically.
Secondly the non - communication of NC with the media is so correct in my view. You can see how the media struggle to get stories from the Saints. They then make them up. At least we know it cannot be the truth as they know so little. NC keeping quiet I am sure helps Nigel. You only have to look at how much Tony Fernandes has said in recent weeks to see the mess that has landed Mark Hughes and him in now.

Strasbourg Saint says...
10:46am Mon 19 Nov 12

If I remember correctly, just before Puncheon's 'crisis year', he wasn't our most popular player for 'on-field' reasons. That's to say, he had started the season badly, couldn't hit a barn door and was being given a hard time by fans.

Then came his wilderness period - no one knows the exact reasons for this - followed by a series of loans to other clubs, most of whom wanted to buy him (Millwall, Blackpool).

Some felt he was a bit of a traitor, some that it was in the club's best interests to ship him out, some just felt he wasn't good enough.

I first saw him play at MK Dons (THAT Rickie hatrick in the rain) and thought he had a lot more about him than, say, Antonio. It's interesting to see where the two are now.

Well done Punch for turning things around. As said above, I hope he isn't just playing for a new contract and realises he can push on and be a regular for the next 5+ years if he wants.

Am I the only person who thought our keeper looked like a rabbit in the headlights. On another day he would have cost us two more points. What has Kelvo done, not to get picked over this kid? Well done Saints but QPR were the biggest shower of excrement I have seen. Lambert and Lallana also deserve major credit and Jamie, you can pass it sometimes as well as having a pop but **** good goal.

Well done Puncheon; he's a bit of a lad's lad by all accounts (prefers to pal around with other London-based footballers than his teammates) but the way he has come back this season through hard work, determination and some flair should be an inspiration for others in the team who have sunken into the wilderness through a lack of the above (we all know who they are).

It might suit Jason and us for different reasons, but the reality is that Puncheon's rennaisance suits us both.

Long live the revival; till your eventual sale do we part!

(Obviously I hope he stays if he plays like this, but he's CLEARLY keen to play back in London)

Gaston will get better and although Davis is a good player, Gaston will do things that can change a game. I do agree with your thoughts, for me Saints biggest defence problem is a weak midfield, tackle wise and potentially playing less attacking players can tighten up the game, but you can only do this once you in a winning position. Great result, good shape at last, which was the same against Swansea, where we should of won, which was thrown away due to poor goalkeeping, again. Good to see Lambert playing without Rod, these two cannot play together, which I have been saying for the last two months. Lambert is playing as a target man and not in a support role. Lets not get carried away, we still need 12 wins in total and 4 more wins before the halfway point. The last two games have seen a change and finally learning. Luke, Corky, and Gaston. We have to sort the goalkeeping out, all options look poor right now. And while I am on the rant, too many "experts" say QPR players are not good enough, poor signings etc. QPR have no team spirit which was there where Warnock was the manager. Atkins has tried hard to keep a team spirit ,even when we have bought in new players and performances have been poor. In many cases Atkins decisions have not been good. Maybe we are turning the corner, I suddenly feel more optimistic about our chances.

I wonder if Pards is looking forward to his return to St Mary's? It will be interesting if he bumps into Nicola in the corridors, won't it?

I suppose it all depends on what actually happened back in the day. Pardew will either be a bit sheepish or extremely angry and desperate to win. Either way, I would love it - LOVE IT - if we beat them.

A few comments from Saturday's game that are in response to some of the above comments too....

Jason Puncheon had a good game, I dont think it is much coincidence that he tries harder against his old clubs (most players do) and is getting is head down now he is part of a premiership team, and he has real competition for his place - maybe previously he felt he was better than League 1 and wasnt being pushed enough. Not saying he was lazy, but complacent probably - which I am thinking the management spotted.

As for Gazza, he did look a little shaky but it was to be expected after his error last week, he was playing in front of the away fans and may have been wondering what reception he might get - especially given the Boruc incident. You saw how Gazza celebrated with the fans after we scored, so he maybe started to relax then. The goal was a mistake, but he isnt the first keeper to be caught out there, and others made mistakes before his - it was a cheap cross, and the lad was unmarked!

For me Gaston looked very lightweight, and didnt effect the game as much as I would have expected. Maybe he had a tough week flying away for international duty, but he wasnt at the races. However, with 4 out of the next 5 at home, he will be very influential in our quest for more points coming up.

As for Shaw, I couldnt believe some of the fans whinging that he was being taken off after 75 minutes - the lad is just 17!! He is not physically fit or strong enough for 90 minutes in the top league yet. He didnt put a foot wrong and doesnt need his confidence shot to pieces by being allowed to have slack 15 minutes, potentially costing us points, due to being forced to play when he isnt fit enough yet.

I think NA has truly learnt from his substitutions mistakes of the past. No taking Lambert off these days, his physical presence is too important for the "out ball", and no hauling off Lallana or Puncheon for an "impact" player that has yet to make that sort of impact. Points are key, the team is playing well so the subs are only made where necessary.

Gaston was lightweight, so he brought on Davies for energy and to keep us from being over-run in midfield. Shaw was tiring, so Fox is a natural choice.

And my final word if for Cork, again we look a totally different team when he is playing. An unsung hero in my eyes, he brings solidity in positioning and breaks up play nicely. Keep him fit and we will be alright!

Agree. We're playing a very small League, with 5-6 teams (Villa, QPR, Reading and throw in Wigan and anothe unexpected team like Norwich-Sunderland-S
toke) that might get relegated. This is where we have to make points. And that is why losing against Wigan was such a HUGE disaster. I hope we don't regret that by the end of the season. I think we should have at least 4 points more by the end of the month which would make X-mas look quite nice and face Reading with huge morale.

Why chage an unbeaten team? I think the team that has played the last two games are our strongest eleven. Plus we don't want to destroy Gazza's confidence. Also, all the points we have gained so far have been with him in goal.

The 3000 at QPR are a 10% representation of Saints home attendence.
Every one, to a man that I could see in that crowd were chanting Nigel Adkins name.
Based on this mathematics and that they are a cross section of our home support then it has to be assumed that you are the only one at SMS(if you go and if you are not a skate or a wum)who finds it cringeworthy as you so put it.

People always focus on the negatives when it comes to Hitler, don't they? Did you know he also invented Fanta? Or that he was kind to dogs? Or that he was a pioneer of 'Movember' years before it became fashionable among footballers?

It's worth remembering that there are two sides to every story.

There are quite a few quality keepers sitting on benches at Stoke, Villa and Spurs if we need them come January. In the meantime it's Kelvin for me now. Cork and Shaw have made a massive difference and, with Kelvin back, I think we'd have real solidity.

If Nigel sticks with Gazza, great, just concerned that any mistakes from crosses and deadballs vs Ba and co could be costly. I'd prefer to see him blooded in a less pressurised situation.

Shaw is a totally different case - yes he's young, but you can get away with it at left or right back. A keeper is much more fragile.

I think Nigel did brilliant with him - protected him during our nightmare run of fixtures, blooded him towards the end of a game we'd already effectively lost and gave him two winnable games to establish himself.

Fantastic show of unity on and off the pitch on Saturday - Saints fans deserve to feel proud for the way they've not just stuck by Nigel but actively supported him.

I think a couple of years out of the top flight have helped us get our soul back and, win lose or draw, I'm a much prouder Saints fan for it.

no what actually happened was that Punch was dropped so that Saints could show-case AOC and line up a deal.... He was treated very badly and had every right to take issue. Just how he did that was another matter and I am not in support of any player on big money who causes disruption. Anyway its clear now that letting Punch go would have been a huge mistake.

It's all quiet on the eastern front today Puppy. Dunno if its the fact only 11k showed for the game where the fans got their club back or maybe that once the PST take over they will be on exactly the same number of points as us albeit 2 divisions below us.

So that's 2 teams worse than us who we can finish above just need to find 1 more and we will be laughing come the end of the season Reading anyone? I must say was not happy when NA took off Shaw but it worked and I spose he was knackered

Why chage an unbeaten team? I think the team that has played the last two games are our strongest eleven. Plus we don't want to destroy Gazza's confidence. Also, all the points we have gained so far have been with him in goal.
Yes... No more changing the team, you are absolutely spot on. This, for me, is the side to go into each and every game with, where possible. Keep it settled and the continuity will win points.

I think this team has already shown good class, it will get better.

I don't remember it was as you describe. Puncheon's form was abject and he was carrying wight and looking very lazy - he was actually kept in the starting line-up much longer than his play deserved. He may well have felt the pressure of AOC on the sidelines, but when AOC played he seized his chance and stayed in on merit. Can't be much fun being dropped for a 16 year old but don't think Puncheon handled it well. Still, glad to see he's back because now he causes lots of problems for the opposition not us.

Lets not get too carried away. Yes was a good performance and three points but it was against a very poor team. Newcastle is going to be a true test sunday. If we keep a clean sheet this will prove we are gaining confidence and on the up. Noewich wednesday also another tuff one. Id take 4 points right now thank you very much.

Gaston is a luxury ( and a very good one ), but should be used accordingly. When Davis came on, Saints were no worse and Davis attacked as much as Gaston did. I think Gaston is better at home and coming on when opposition legs are tired . His skills are fantastic. However often for the 1st half we need work rate and I would consider a 5th midfielder ( davis or ward prowse ), and use Gaston more tactically.
Secondly the non - communication of NC with the media is so correct in my view. You can see how the media struggle to get stories from the Saints. They then make them up. At least we know it cannot be the truth as they know so little. NC keeping quiet I am sure helps Nigel. You only have to look at how much Tony Fernandes has said in recent weeks to see the mess that has landed Mark Hughes and him in now.
I understand the comments about Gaston being a luxury, but if you look at the games he has played in, we have been significantly more successful.

His first game for us was Arsenal, but we then won with him against Villa. He scored away for us at the Toffees, before being injured.
He then came back unfit at the Baggies, but then involved against the Swans and the win at QPR...

By my reconning with him we have played 6, Won 2, Drawn 1, Lost 3. = 7 points...

I don't really think that it's a coincidence that he's been involved in helping us gain most of our points.

Firstly thought Puncheon had his best game for Saints on saturday. I still have doubts as to whether he has the quality to be a consistant performer at this level, he does struggle to get past defenders. That said he is working had and helping out defensively so positives outweigh negatives at the moment. I cannot beleive anyone can question Gaston being in the team, he is real quality. He plays the game at his own pace and will get better and better.Before we signed him he was rated one of the top young players in the world. The touch to put Adam through for a shot on goal in the first half was devine. On the goalkeeping fron I thing Gazza looked nervous, I put that down to lack of experience.he dropped an absolute gooly the week before, an experienced goalkeeper will put that behind him, with a young goalkeeper it will play on his mind. I think that we now need to stick with him, chopping and changing goalkeepers does no good at all. If he is dropped now then it will damage him long term.Let's not kid ourselves, QPR were rubbish, to say that we are better than out league position is just not true.At the moment the table reflect how we have played, but the season still has a long way to go and if we can win our next two home games then things will look a lot healthier, a big ask but that would give us 10 points out of 12.

After spending 12 million quid on him there's no way he'll ever be used as a luxury player.

To be honest I'm a little surprised by him - from reading the comments attributed to him before he signed I was expecting him to be quite cocky and gobby but he seems almost a little timid. He's going to take a little while to get used to the Premiership but his class will shine out before too long. Hopefully as his English improves he'll get more confident within the team and Nigel will be able to work his magic on him to make him feel 10 feet tall - it's probably hard to do that with a player who can't understand what you're saying.

Apparently because of the whole Hitler 'business' there was a trade embargo on Germany so Coca Cola Germany couldn't get the ingredients to make Coke. Consequently, they came up with a new drink using the stuff they could find, and called it Fanta because it was short for the German word Fantasie. Admittedly, the Second World War was quite a high price to pay for it, but by god it's lovely.

I am delighted we got our first away points. I am pleased for Nigel and for the team, they are starting to look like the solid force I believe them to be. The crowd that travels away is simply awesome. It was somethig else last season but this year it is amazing, other teams do envy that.

OK thats enough of that.

I have to say that some of the posts on here are decidedly odd. I have been quiet of late, as I got caught up in arguments a couple of times where I should have known better. Happens to the best of us.

But today ? ... There are some strange people out there. Some are obsessed with club debts, I really couldn't give a fig really. I dont care if they are in the know. I have enough contacts of my own to know what is going on but feel no need to spout about it on here. We have a business man in charge and he knows what he's doing.

I'm a red blood Saints fan through and through... I want to see the team playing, I want to see great play, great players, great games and all the fun that comes with that part of football. Some of the puffs on here today are from self obsessed nerds who just need to get out more.

I still remember the images of Puncheon literally running into Loftus Road at the Transfer Deadline as he couldn't wait to get away. I also noticed as the full time whistle went on Saturday and he just happened to be next to the ball the fans started booing, (this was obviously as they were upset with the performance) yet Puncheon though it was aimed at him and for the second time put his fingers to his lips to hush the crowd. He obviously gets wound up really easily and yes i agree he was great Saturday but was that fueled by his deisre to please us or his desire to wind QPR up?

he was not being used properly if you remember, he was being played in daft positions sometimes and I think Saints were all to quick to ship-him-out. But it looks like this is toys-out-of-the-pram story with a happy ending, unusual in football, my view of Punch and NC went up after that conclusion.

We beat the bottom club so relief yes however a bit of realism is required..we will have arrived when and only when clean sheets appear.

....some football we play is sublime no question but end product is lacking far too often, Lallana often reminds me of the early Giggs who had talent in spades but whose final ball or positioning after beating someone lead nowhere...beating the man is not enough, what are you going to do next...

...with luck he will sort this out, happy days then...general overplaying and trying to walk the ball in the net has to be dealt with by other too.

We will not go down, I have said that from the off, the suprise to other teams in the premiership will come when it all clicks into place because we are a much better side than many teams....

.. schoolboy or sunday league errors still a hangover from division 1 are costing us dear..when these errors are all addressed and they will be, we will all be supporting a top 7 side.

When the results and beautiful football combine....well I will leave that to your imagination..

I'd stick with Gazza. Much as I love Kelvin I think Gazza's a good five inches taller and that makes him a more commanding presence in the area. His understanding with the defence will improve with every game, meaning the errors should become rarer.

If you are implying the new signings are doing badly, as it seems, that is hardly fair.

Yoshida and Rodriguez have been having a tough time in the League, but Rodriguez has done well when on the smaller stage. If he finds some confidence he will do well.

Steven Davis and Nat Clyne have been brilliant, they are both great captures and will do very well for the club in their time here.

Gaston Ramirez... need I say more?

I agree that Gazza is more of a physical presence, but he is too inexperienced for the League yet (we signed him from Gillingham after all) and this means he is making mistakes.

I say we play Kelvin, and he tutors Gazza to become a better player. Kelvin is still a great keeper (and penalty saver from our earlier games) and has a lot to offer the club.

Once Gazza has stopped his mistakes he will be a fine keeper. Until then play Kelvin (not Boruc) and play a five man holding midfield with one or two supporting the defence but allowing the other three to move forward to help the lone striker.

If not Kelvin then loan a decent keeper who is not getting games (eg Brad Freidel).

Poor old Force doesn't understand the concept of "mates". As he sits all alone at Fratton after everyone's left (about 70 mins in the past couple of games) he finds himself wondering where it all went wrong.

His only friends are on here (must be; he spends much of his life in here). Soon he'll be coming along to St Marys to see what big crowds and Premier League football are like. He might even end up having a pint with us all and repenting his past in public.

Either that or it's another week in front of his PC all alone, aged 34, in his parents' front bedroom.

4 home games out of the next 5, all against teams in the bottom half and the 2 away games after these are v Fulham (9th and sliding) and Stoke.

The confidence that had been ebbing away was back against Swansea and QPR. I can see us putting a decent run together for the rest of 2012 now.

Team has a settled look to it; all Gazza needs is a clean sheet. Cabaye being out for weeks helps.

Now that is good news above about Cabaye he's class could do with Ben Arfa as well and maybe Ba and Cisse and I will be confident of a clean sheet until that happens reckon draw against the toon and then beat Norwich for a fairly decent November which should see us going to Anfield outside of the bottom 3

The time has come to play Kelvin Davies the best keeper we have by a country mile. Spider needs a rest he gives possession away far too much. NA should bring back JWP in the midfield he will play well with Cork. JWP will at least play forwards unlike Davis who prefers playing backwards and sideways. Lalana needs to learn that football is a game played best simple and Lambert needs to up his work rate and look like he wants to actually be playing for the Saints!!!!!

Well some gossip coming from the papers, Friedel from Spurs looking to come to Saints in the Jan window. Also a Defender from Spurs. Both have been dropped from the first team, and apparently Saints the only club so far who can firmly offer them first Team Football. Also More Rumours coming from Italy linking a Centre Back who is not getting enough first team football so could come in on loan with a view to buy at the end of the season. So makes you wonder who is on the way out.

I don't think we need to change a thing. Why change a team which has gone 2 games without a defeat?
Hopefully NA has learned following the Villa win when we went to Everton made a few changes and got beat.

The only thing I might change is Davis for Gazza, but then again dropping Gazza could do more harm than good.

Jp has obviously matured not just as a person but as a player, can remember Steve Williams being a cocky know it all but as he aged became one of the most underrated midfielders in the league, in gaza defence although he got caught in no mans land jp and and clyne let the winger get the throw in too easy and could of prevented the cross had they got tighter . He obviously spilled a few shots and looked nervy but he is young for a keeper and although KD has experience on his side not sure if he is a premiership keeper a good back up and maybe mentor but gaza might
be , given confidence and time .
Finally someone questioned Ramirez contribution on the site , he is 21 , new to the premier league and this country and has been out for 5 weeks but he undoubtedly has quality can unlock defences and like le tissier a bit of magic or skill will win matches .
2 big home games coming up and feel that 2 wins are not beyond us

My personal opinion........
Jason Puncheon was bought by Alan Pardew and was told he should be playing in the Prem and if he stayed with Saints he would.
He got impatient because he believed what Pardew told him.
All he ever wanted was to play in the Prem and he didn't really care who for.
His turnaround in form for us began when Cortese told him to behave and he apologised. Mostly because there was a very good chance we were going to get promoted and the promised land was within sight.
When Pardew signed him he told all of us that Punch was a special talent and that he would be one hell of a player, he was right.
All Saints have to do to keep him is stay in the Prem.
Just hope that no one tells him he is England class and to obtain that he needs to sign for a "big" club, he is likely to believe that.
Saturday he worked really hard to prove a point to QPR, next week he needs to work hard again to prove a point to Pardew.
As long as there points to prove he will be outstanding, so all we as supporters have to do is tell him how brilliant he is and want him to stay.
Doomngloomerchants will now start to run him down!!!!!!!!!!
Support the Saints...I do.

Spending money we have got.
PFC are the club with no money, or did that slip your memory?
As to complaining about you, why not?
You are not surely pretending that you are on here to spread goodwill and post things that actually make sense?
Go to the News site and check where your team are in the league, check how the purchase of your club is progressing,check what players are likely to be playing for you tomorrow. Do not bother to remember too many of their names they will probably not be playing for you next week.
Check your spelling and grammar, it shows you up as a bit of a thicko.
Support the Saints.......I do.

my god i am surprised at how many fish are on this site but even more surprised that they can get their usually knuckledragging hand high enough to bash on the keyboard in the hope that some words appear. still bless them its not as if they have anything else to do, no money, no players, no manger, no owner, and soon no club!
to come on hear and try to say we are spending money we havent got, well that comming from your lot is a bit rich (sorry i know i should not say rich in respect to your club), we have owners who have got money, but we dont want to spend it! we havent got a manager who is always going to the owner begging for more money for more player on wages the club cant afford!
so on the same day that we sign an exciting youngster who is from your dump but didnt want to play for your lot, like some others, on a 5 year deal you sign a nobody on a 1 month deal! spending money that should be going to the creditors of your club, you know the local businesses and charities who still havent been payed from 3 years ago! you are an embarrassment to the football world and the sooner you are kicked out of the league the better, the problem is you lot dont see it and have no shame, westknob is a prime example of that!

NC did not "tell him to appologise". Thats made up. NC/NA realised that Punch was a golden nugget that we would soon loose if the situation was not sorted. It was a mutual discussion from what I heard and appologies were accepted all round. If he had left, given our summer signings, it would have been a disaster. Neutral pundits would have had a field day. It was a no brainer to keep him on board. It was his personal terms that kept him from signing for other clubs and I happen to agree with him that he should have stuck to his guns and not be let go a get paid "reject" wages. His performances for Blackpool in the Prem were mostly excellant. Its pretty obvious now the talent the guy has, not only his basic football brain but a lot more.
