People wonder why successive Saints managers don't play Stuart Armstrong because on the face of it he's one of our best. This is why (from Nicks preview)...
"I do also think that Stuart Armstrong is one other change that Martin may make, either in the centre of midfield or possibly wide, but pre match comments suggest he is not ready for 90 mins just yet."
It's the second game of the season. We moan about ABK and his glass knees but Armstrong never seems to be fit for three games in a row. |  | | |  |

He seems to have some sort of problem that has not yet been really revealed, the main problem being his ability to actually play 90 minutes.
I don't know if this is some sort of Long Covid thing or otherwise, but it seems to be a fitness issue rather than a specific injury |  |

I think Nathan Jones may have alluded to a mysterious groin injury which kept rearing its head.
Never was one for discretion, Nathan. Or a coherent plan. |  |

Didn't Ralph suggest SA is one of those players that only wants to play if he feels 100% fit? | | | |

Seems sensible to me. | |

If that's the case then he should only be paid for the minutes he plays.
We know that will never happen which is why some players pick & choose their moments to play. |  | | |
