Saints 4 Daggers 0 - Post Match Reaction

[JustMike]

Absolutely, but now we face a new challenge - can we really do it against the teams around us ? We failed against Huddersfield. Lets hope we learned something.

 

Those games against Peterborough and Brighton are looking critical, especially with both of them being home games.

 

we failed against Huddersfield away last year too but look what happened to them down here when we were on a run.

[Saint Fan CaM]

Tonight was a magnificent win, but let's not forget who we were playing (with a 2nd string goalie). I understand why Adkins was keen not to overhype the win. Nevertheless, to finally get into the top 6 is a great achievement and now it's about consistency to provide Brighton with a proper challenge.

 

Our best players tonight were Fonte, Chaplow, Lallana, Chambo and Barnie - all receiving 9 IMO. The rest of the team come in with a 7 except Lambert and Hammond who come in with 6.

[Wade Garrett]

Don't knock the Dagenham keeper. Apparently, he is the best in his school.

Totally different team faced them at home compared to away last year according to the Pardoo lovers...

Considering more than half the team that started in the away game didn't feature in the home game, I'm guessing you don't have to be a Pardoo lover to realise that it was true.

[Ken Tone]

Was me, first one deffo a fluke, second one hmm need to see a replay perhaps.

The kid played well, but Chaplow was mom by a country mile.

 

Thought we took our foot off the gas after going 4-0 up which was a bit anti climatical, GD could be crucial.

Can't believe the form Brighton are showing. Fair play - should be a cracker at SMS.

 

First one a fluke meant as a cross IMO, but it put the idea into his head for the definitely deliberate second one.

 

And yes all very quiet and downbeat near the end, partly because of subbing our two first choice strikers so some of the buzz went out of the game, and partly because as fans we've forgotten what to do when we're winning easily. Where was the last minute panic, hanging on desperately, that we're used to?

 

Fair play to the tiny handful of Dagenham fans. Particularly enjoyed their response to the Northam's short burst of 'going down - going down' ... 'so are we - so are we'

[Ken Tone]

LOL. Looked like he was wearing his older brother's kit too.

[doddisalegend]

It was an enteraining match to watch (well probably not for the daggers fans) 4 goals and a win is always going to leave me happy

 

Good bits

 

OXO played the way Puncheon should be playing really a handful when he runs at people, from the chapel both goals looked like crosses that went in by fluke. Look forward to seeing them on the highlights.

 

Chaplow at last midfield has some bite lots of good solid tackling he was like a little terrier, nice to see him get forward too ( although he never really looks like scoring he has muffed a few chances now)

 

Lambert I know some are slagging him but I thought he looked the best I've seen him this season won a lot more ball up front and and some great passes running around a lot more too just needs to find the goalscoring touch now.

 

bad bits

 

Some sloppy play at times poor passing and aimless punts got away with it last night but against better teams we will get punished for it.

 

Richardson - best RB in league one really? Giving him the benefit of the doubt as he's just come back from injury but he was skinned several times, didn't put in one decent tackle or block all night and gave the ball away a lot, get Butters back to health quick I say.

 

Corners- again ours were poor. While the daggers ones always looked a threat, we need to defend better against them than that.

 

Overall enjoyed it and another 3 pts onwards and upwards.

[simondo]

not bad - our RB didn't have a good game at all. right from the start he looked way off the pace. i am sure with more games he will improve but would have butterfield back ASAP against anyone good...

chaplow was ok - ran about a lot and did some good work. best game so far it think for him - but just ok

lallana & 'the ox' were great and i thought Lambert showed a lot more of his old self last night

 

4 goals can't be bad!!!

In the chapel row HH just behind the goal, with my eye sight anything that happens down the other end is just a blur which is why both OXOs goals looked like flukes to me, My son plays RB for his youth team so we always watch the backs carefully out of habit.

[Toomer]

We could have had a couple more but more than happy with the result, we are not at our best yet but when it all clicks into place someone is going to get a right tonkin, lets hope its the 23rd November. Couple of shaky moments early doors but all in all a good all round team performance and I think we must give Daggers a bit of credit even at 4 down their heads did not drop and they kept having a go.

[The9]

The end justified the means, we played awful kick and rush football for much of the match and got a result. Why on earth Adkins played the long ball is beyond me as he claims all the time that he wants his team to play neat fast passing football. Did anybody pass his message on to the players?

 

Good result 'though especially later in the season when we look back

 

You must have been watching a different match to me, we played almost everything up the wings on the deck or occasionally through the middle to Chaplow breaking from deep. There were about 3 crossfield passes and I can't even remember us hoofing it other than 3 or 4 clearances under pressure.

 

It is a matter of time before Lambert gets dropped on his form of the last 3 months though, unless Adkins is leaving him in there to draw the defenders away from our players who actually do the damage.

 

Dag&Red were pants but still nearly scored a couple of times, but we were comfortable from the first goal.

[buctootim]

Dag & Red have had more shots on goal, including on target than anyone else in this league apart from Saints - but have the fewest clean sheets. Seems like good attack, ****e defence.

No, their attack was terrible - they should have had at least one in the first half and possibly should have done better on a couple of other occasions.

 

Fair play to them, they tried to play the game and didn't come for a point but they were a truly terrible side.

[The9]

Totally different team faced them [Huddersfield] at home compared to away last year according to the Pardoo lovers...

 

Away 3-1 defeat (August) : Davis, Harding, Thomas, Perry ( Lancashire, 80 ) , Murty, James ( Thomson, 54 ) , Wotton, Schneiderlin ( Mellis, 54 ) , Lallana,Lambert , Rasiak

Subs not used: Bialkowski, Paterson, Gobern, Saganowski

Home 5-0 win (March) : Davis, Harding, Jaidi (Seaborne, 80 ) , Fonte, Otsemobor, Hammond, Puncheon, Schneiderlin, Lambert (Oxlade-Chamberlain, 86 ) , Lallana, Barnard (N'Diaye, 78 )

 

If you can't see the difference in class between the first team and the second, I don't think much of your footballing knowledge.

 

Or are you saying you'd rather Thomas and Perry at centre back to Jaidi and Fonte; James and Wotton over Hammond and Puncheon, and a completely disinterested Rasiak ahead of Barnard ? Not to mention the bench, which in the first Huddersfield game brought us Lancashire, Jake Thomson and Mellis, and in the second match Seaborne, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Waigo. In fact the only "improvement" would be Murty ahead of Otsemobor, and that wasn't possible anyway due to Murty's injury.

 

You don't half talk some crap sometimes, they ARE completely different sides - but of course it would only be the "Pardew lovers" who would think this in your World...

 

If you were a defender right now you'd have your hand up apologising for your own goal.

Dag&Red were pants but still nearly scored a couple of times, but we were comfortable from the first goal.

 

I think there may be a bit of this; on occasions we are looking slightly more direct than in our first games under NA. Playing it up to the head of Lambert is of course not necessarily a bad thing; but only provided we don't do it all the time, and it is in the right areas. Lamberts clever flick yesterday set up one of the goals in the second half, and there were a few other occasions where his flicks or headers almost put us in.

 

IMO the difference between this year and last with RL was summed up with his miss in the second half; a great burst through from Hammond down the right and a cross that was put on a plate for RL. Last year I think we would have seen him smash it in the top corner, but he tried to side foot it and scuffed it wide.

 

While clearly not at his best, RL is still a very good outlet for us, and I think he and Barnard are creating a real understanding with each other. The rest of the side are starting to also chipin with goals which takes the burden off the main man.

 

Even out of form, I don't think we currently have a player who can do the job that Lambert does for us. Hopefully he just needs another goal or two to get him kick started and firing on all cylinders again.

[sammysaint]

Great win agree with NA was some poor parts of play but overall there was plenty of decent plays just need lambo to get back to his best and that will keep our good form.

 

Barnard Lallana and Alex all played very good fonte also looked good unsure of seabournes passing game everyone wanted to play it on the floor except him who wanted to belt it every time.

And I think the point that The9 was making was that "according to the Pardoo lovers" was completely unnecessary. It's not a matter of opinion - it's a fact that the team was completely different.

So what? I embellished. You trying to tell me there arent people round here who would still want Pardoo over Adkins ?

[Kingsbridge Saint]

We are well and truly on our way. Normally a pessimist, I think Peterborough and Brighton are there to be despatched. Well done all at SFC.

[PokingFun]

Got it in one.

I thought we won that without playing particularly well and both Chamberlain's goals were flukes.

Chaplow by far our best player.

Lambert had a stinker.

 

Enjoyed the Tranmere game much more than this - tonight was OK but nothing more. Don't get carried away there is still lots of work to be done on this team.

 

The goals were flukes for sure but you had to be impressed by the way he breezes past opposition defenders down the sides of the 18 yard box and his delivery of crosses was excellent for a young kid. He can fizz it and stand it up and seems to pick the right option a lot for someone so young. This boy is going to be a Premier League player within three seasons, hopefully for us.

Can't believe how slow the second half went. Indeed it was a strange feeling to be winning so easily with so much time left on the clock

I laughed at 'we're the small club, we're the small club, we're the small club over here'. Did they start this or was it back to us when the Northam were singing 'we're the big club'?

 

I don't like us singing 'going down' to the opposition as it is still fresh in my mind when others were singing it to us.

Couldn't tell you. Can't always hear what the Northam is singing in my part of the Kingsland. Why don't these young people enunciate ?

I too hate hearing 'going down' when the opposition is just a small club that has been fighting above its weight. Different matter if it is one of our 'friends' of course.

Thought their midfield in general was their strong point. They had some ball players there, and they kept going even when 4 down.

Exactly how I feel. There were too many behind-the-scenes issues it appears, going all the way back to February with some of the public comments flying backwards and forwards.

[Wes Tender]

A very entertaining match and generally we played extremely well. Many say that it was only Dagenham and Redbridge, so no surprise that we beat them easily, much as many had commented along similar lines about the Tranmere match. But often in the past, the bottom teams in the division realising our power and prowess, park the proverbial bus in front of their goal, flood the midfield to deny possession and hope to hit us on the break. So how come Tranmere and D&R didn't work to that game plan? Could it be that there is an element of our style of play under Adkins not allowing teams to play that way? Under Pardew, we nearly always used to play with no width, all players hemmed into one half of the pitch lengthwise. With Adkins, we mostly play with width, thus stretching the midfield and allowing us to play to our strength, our passing game. With Lallana and either Chamberlain or Puncheon, we have tricky, fast players who play wide and they have to be marked. If they are marked, space is opened up in the middle and last night Chaplin ran riot in that area, often breaking forward ahead of Lambert and Barnard. With Hammond the holding midfielder, Chaplow had the freedom to go box to box, something that we have not seen from a midfielder to that degree of energy since Viafara. Chaplow made a huge difference and was my motm. I believe that the decision to buy him could be influential on our season.

 

Chamberlain is coming on in leaps and bounds and played a very influential part in our victory. His first goal looked as if it had been a cross that was fortunately too close to the goallie, who seemed to tip it in with his fingertips. The second looked as if it was meant and if so, then it would have been worthy of MLT. Also, his trickery and dribbling, his close ball control, made him almost unplayable and defenders must have realised that it would be only too easy to give away a penalty if they misjudged a tackle in the box. His turn of speed when running on to a pass out wide can leave defenders for dead. Switching sides between him and Lallana kept their defence guessing throughout the match. I don't know whether Puncheon is to be alternated with Chamberlain, or whether he had an injury, but he is obviously a good option to bring on later in a match as a substitute for Chamberlain and vice versa.

 

Between the other players, Barnard was his usual bustling, lively self, Lambert improving, but still not 100% and could do with a goal or two from open play to boost his confidence. The defence was generally sound, Harding his usual industrious and reliable self, Seabourne improving alongside the immense Fonte, but Richardson still a bit rusty. Kelvin not much to do, but another wonderful save from a fierce shot where he tipped the goalward bound ball over the bar. With the strength in depth we have on the bench, this is certainly a team capable of winning this division and also capable of beating higher division teams if we draw any in the FA Cup.

 

Other small observations; the referee was good and allowed a flowing game. The match was a very clean one. D & R have a player who had a wicked long throw on him which was used to devastating effect a la Delap.

 

Now that we have fought our way into the play-off places, we have it in our hands to get up to an automatic play-off place. We can help ourselves by beating Brighton and Peterborough. Refreshing my memory on comparatively recent threads, there were allegations that replacing Pardew had jeopardised our chances of automatic promotion. I hope that the current situation where we are just two points off that second place and the memory of how Leeds ran away with the top spot in the early stages of last season only to fall away, will help to put some perspective into that assertion. In my opinion, whereas Pardew might conceivably have gained us more points than Wilkins, I am now firmly of the opinion that had he remained, he would not have done better than Adkins over these past few matches and at the very least, I am confident that the more entertaining football is played by Adkins' team.

[Fan The Flames]

Whilst the score line is great and the individual performances were in the main good there were periods when we were dross, pushing it long and looking a bit clueless. We need to knock this out of our game to claim the top spot. NA knows we are not the finished article yet, lets hope he can further improve us.

[Stubby]

While clearly not at his best, RL is still a very good outlet for us, and I think he and Barnard are creating a real understanding with each other.

 

Definitely

[Window Cleaner]

My what a boring thread, no norks or nuns anywhere.

[Saint_Ash]

Enjoyed yesterdays game. Always nice to win, taken the nipper to about 5 games now and we've won every single one of them, lucky talisman!

 

Stand outs for me last night were: Chamberlain, his first goal was really an own goal, I was sat in itchen north and saw it, not sure if it would've dipped in but I don't want to take it off the lad. His second goal looked like a cross to me, again I was directly behind it, but I think it was a sort of cross cum shot where he knew the keeper would be off his line, chancing his luck. It wasn't only the goals though, every time he had the ball he looked dangerous and ran the full backs ragged, more so when he was down the right.

Chaplow, he worked damn hard last night, box to box, was a threat in opponents half and was always handy in the tackle. Brilliant! And pleased to hear Adkins say the paperwork was in hand to extand his loan.

Seaborne, not one to wax lyrical about Seaborne but I thought he was towering last night, everytime a ball was whipped into the box he was there to head it away. Working alongside Fonte is bringing his game on leaps and bounds, Fonte was again his assured solid self, constantly talking to the back line and mashalling the defence, he's way too good for this level!

 

I must say credit goes to the Daggers fans, especially in the second half. The group at the top never gave up singing and dacing even though their team was woeful, loved the "let's pretend we scored a goal", "we only want one goal" and "megastore" chants. Top stuff.

 

Another plus for me was listening to Adkins on the radio when driving home, he wasn't happy about the performance and believes we're still not firing on all cylinders, he wants more from the team and knows they have to improve to win the league. Excellent comments from the manager to keep the players feet on the ground and to make sure they keep a level head, especially with Brighton coming up. Looking forward to that one!

[Smirking_Saint]

I'd rather it had been in may or June! Pretty sure Adkins would have us sitting top right now if he'd had pre-season, but there we go. If we come second it'll be a top job from Adkins, but bare minimum for the club to be honest.

 

It's good we are winning without getting near our best. Look forward to seeing us play on top form.

 

Agree, i just wish we had sacked Pardew before pre-season if he was honestly on the way out come last season end.

 

Thats why i cannot see that nothing had happened, either that or it was a tactic to wait until the end of the transfer window to keep our top players ??

 

I don't know, either way we are playing well and winning.

That all seems about right, but I thought we looked average, masked by Oxo's speed and goals. Really impressed with Oxo, first was a cross but second was deliberate. What really impressed was the quality of the end product after getting space. Often you see these speed gifted fail when it comes to the delivery, this was the real deal.

 

To get to the same level of performances we did under Pardew against some of the top teams, we are going to require Ricky to be back on full form. That still is not there at the moment and I can't see it happening anytime soon, even though he is still worth his place. The size and quality of our squad should see us surge ahead when the competition wears down the squads.

 

I get the feeling you can't make any valid observations about the Daggers game, because they never pressurised the midfield as Notts and Huddersfield did, but I still don't believe we looked completely at ease. I want to see our midfield dominate one of the top teams to give us one of the performances we saw against Huddersfield, Norwich or Leeds last season. Combine that with the consistency that Pardew lacked, then we really are cooking. Certainly not beyond Adkins and it would not surprise me to happen at any time, but not quite there as yet.

[Upton72]

I think most comments from people who went to the match have got it right.

D&G weren't up to much but they never stopped trying.It did go a bit flat after 70 minutes but that's surely because we aren't used to "coasting"

Which other team in the division can afford to take their two top strikers off after 65 minutes and still play in the opposition's half.

Rickie looked better; his nod on for Lallana to create Barney's goal was how it used to be.

Richardson shows just how difficult it is to get back to full match fitness in two matches; but he'll come good.

Adkins comments about OC, spot on; he'll have good days, he'll have bad days and we'll bring him on.

First goal, flukey and down to a last minute replacement goalkeeper, 2nd one, I'd like to think he meant it.

What's important is a good win against poor opposition of the type that seemed to cause us problems last season.

Big tests to come and I don't mean Shrewsbury.

[astrasri]

I think Rickie is playing a different game, whether that is because he is "off the pace" in terms of goal scoring, or his lack of goals is because he is being asked to change his style of play. Last night he controlled the ball - especially long balls from Kelvin, much more successfully and his lay-offs were more productive. I think his impact on the game was as influential as if he scored all 4 goals himself.
