Merrington hit the nail on the head:

 

"35 minutes gone and no service whatsover to Raziak or Lambert"...

because we dont play wide players....you need wide playes throwing in crosses for these types of forwards..

What do you expect with Wotton in midfeild....we just need some pace in this team, without it im not sure how we'll do.

(From the match)

 

We are very poor. Kelvin has been the difference twice. We don't seem capable of stringing 2 passes together. Zero build-up play. Just cheered a Saints throw-in...says it all!

At least Saints Player seems to be behaving itself today.

 

Ssshhhh!! I was going to say something similar but didn't want to tempt fate and make it go all crappy again.

 

Murty to James, crosses in, goes out for Saints corner.

 

Lallana takes and...................

 

 

 

 

 

punched away by the 'keeper.

Perry sounds very dodgy at the back today...

 

He sounds a bit iffy. I do like Perry, i think he reads the game so well - but i just worry about how he'll cope with the physicallness of this league.

If we get to half-time 0-0 I'd take that - then let Pardew have a right go at them. I'd like to see Mellis come on down the right for a bit of pace as well, see what he can do.

I know he's no spring chicken - and he's got oodles of experience - but I tend to agree with you. He's got no height & isn't quick. And this is a very physical league.

why..

 

you cant play rasiak and lambert (who both do not have pace) and not play real wide players...

 

for these strikers to progress in a game, you need to pepper crosses in the box and they will both cause havoc...Millwall did this to us time and time again and they got their goal..

Rasiak really needs to come off the bench to be effective, as being picked from the off he seems to play with his pipe and slippers on, at least with Patto not being tainted with years in Football he is prepared to go an get the ball.

"Lies, Damn Lies and Statistics" - Benjamin Disraeli (CM - Maccabi Haifa)

Often attributed to Disraeli but no evidence to support it. Mark Twain can be quoted however, as he popularised the saying...

Apart from zero service to the front two the midfied have done zilch either.

 

James is capable of a decent cross and so is murty but midfield have to

create space and provide passes for this to happen

I'll take 0-0 as it stands, not a great half but we're still in with a shout. Gives us 15mins to get our selves together and maybe make a sub, Thompson for james maybe?

 

We just need width...could have really done with Holmes today tbh.

Woah. I'm aware that the OS changed the way it was operating during the dark days of administration but not impressed with the level of information available to fans yet. The old match commentary and live updates on the OS were adequate but to fall as this far is awful. The new player is dreadful and there are no live written updates on OS.

 

Thanks to all that are providing regular updates. C'mon you reds.

 

Try the Huddersfield commentary no gaps at all and they seem pleasant enough chaps. I can almost understand them

You can't keep saying we don't have wide players - we are playing four in the middle, two of those are "wide", whether you think they're naturally comfortable there or not. James and Lallana should be getting down the line and getting balls in regardless.

Next stop for Pardew must be two midfielders and dump Wotton and Schneiderlin in the solent.

 

Just Wotton, give Morgan a decent partner and he'll be effective.

no sheet..

 

I will bet your bottom dollar that lallana is playing crap also and NOT staying wide...thus creating space as he is a player that would get more attention than others...
