SaintBobby Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I'd even disagree with the not playing very well comment. We are playing some good, interesting football. Not champagne stuff, no real verve but our style of play is really coming together despite losing a bunch of important players to injury. Well, if some asked me how we'd played over the last three games, I don't think my reply would be "very well". So, I stick to saying we aren't playing very well. But I agree we have some real strengths to our game. And I think we might be able to bulldoze our way through the last few games. Our 2nd half performance today wasn't bad at all. If our central midfield could up their game a bit, I think we might just start to click. Getting Lallana back would be a boost too. I'm sure we would have won today with some ease if he'd been on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jam Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Thing is if Barney hadn't got injured we may have subbed Guly, good job Nigel had read the script. Sounds like the sort of game only a piece of individual flair will win for you. Guly was never going off. Forte was injured, did his hamstring when he had a chance in the box. I think he only stayed on so long because of Lambert doing similar then the Barnard situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Wayman Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Truth is guys Guly is an out-and-out striker not a winger or midfielder. He will always look poor playing a position he doesn't understand. Put him up front with Lambo and get him running into the channels and he'll score a hat-full of goals. On the wing / midfield he's wasted and it affects the balance of the team. Only an idiot would play Rooney at centre-back where he'd look like a grade 1 plonker.

Risking getting into semantics here but when I read 'not playing very well', I read that as playing poorly or getting through games rather than being unable to say 'they're playing very well'. Anyway - and I'm not trying to pick you personally up on anything here - I think we are actually playing well ( from what I've seen in he last few home games). I think it's really coming together, although not quite coming off. I've got a really good feeling about next season. Providing we're in the right division...

brmbrm Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I thought fighting to stay in the league was torture enough, but I have forgotten how fighting to go the other way is just as nerve racking. There was a lot of frustration in Guly's strike he knew that he wasn't having his best game so putting that away seemed to have quite a lot behind it. The lack of common sense award goes to the booking Forte picked up for catching the ball as it was about to go out over his head, yes it's the letter of the law but come on. A word in his ear was all that was needed. I don't think it IS the letter of the law - if you are right then EVERY handball is either (a) a straight booking (yellow, or red if a goal scroing opportunity) or (b) accidental, in which case the law says it is not a free kick. So watch MOTD and see if there are any handballs that don't get booked - of course there will be, same as there are fouls that don't get the yellopw card. I am OK with referees making mistakes - we all do, including me. especilly me, some would say. But sheer inconsistnecy is a gross failing, and thats what todays "referee" showed.

gammon cheeks Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 We seem to be on the slide, Adkins post match interview was lunatic, he must have been at a different match to the one the rest of us saw. A man under very serious pressure from his boss it seems which would explain why he's becoming erratic. Without Schneiderlin , Lallana & Chamberlain and now Barnard & Jaidi we are just a makeshift side, many players out of position and not knowing their roles; what scares me is it looks like it will be this way until the end of the season. On today's showing absolutely no chance against Brighton and even the other four matches will be a struggle. I'm dreading the thought too of two play-off games against Rochdale. Not the happiest of days despite the 3 points. Its all about winning games at this stage of the season .......so we won today enjoy it and move on to the next bus.

SuperSAINT Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I'll take the win any way we can get it at this stage of the season. Rovers have been quite handy lately, and since we are without Lallana, Chambo & even Morgan, I think it was a brilliant win. Real shame about Barney - I'm guessing this will mean Guly going back up top, with a Forte or N'guessan more game time. Connolly will no-way be able to play for long periods without getting injured. We've got 7 days to get ready for the best team in the league. No reason why we can't get something from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rut Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 The games are running out (for the other teams - not Saints!). A desperate 'n' dirty 3 points was all that was required today. Mission accomplished. Whether we are playing Brighton (title winners) or Plymouth (praps relegated) it ain't gonna be easy - but there's no reason at all why Saints can't win all their remaining 5 games.

dellboypete Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 apert from the excitement of phillipine saint (aka uaepete) being in town (we are old mates from the UAE)..... For me any win is a great win - especially at this time of the season. But I was really concerned with our midfield. Nobody dominated. Too many balls given away. I hope we can get Lallana back asap and morgan would be immense even for the last couple of games. These two are the most comfortable players on the ball I have seen in this division. Dickson - I thought he had a poor game today - that's what I love about football, everyone sees things differenly. Guly - you just never know what he is going to do next - amazing player - good or bad. Connelly was my man of the match today. As soon as he came on he put a spark into saints play. Can somebody xplain to me how rochdale beat us on tuesday and then lose at home to Brentford today?? football is so bizarre and unpredictable - I love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kraken Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Truth is guys Guly is an out-and-out striker not a winger or midfielder. He will always look poor playing a position he doesn't understand. Put him up front with Lambo and get him running into the channels and he'll score a hat-full of goals. On the wing / midfield he's wasted and it affects the balance of the team. Only an idiot would play Rooney at centre-back where he'd look like a grade 1 plonker. You may think so, but I very much disagree. Guly is (and has always seemed to me to be) a "number 10". And the problem with that is, in that position, you pretty much have to build a team around that type of player. MLT played in very much a similar position, but then he was such an incredible player that he justified having a team built around him. Guly doesn't have that presence and, for me, struggles to fit into a fixed position. I certainly don't see him as a centre forward. He is at his best when running onto the ball in central areas. As a centre forward his back is facing the opposition goal much more and I don't think this plays to his strengths. His goal today I think typified the strenghth in his play, where he can burst through the defence from a slightly deeper position with his pace and skill. Ricky Lambert wouldn't have scpred that goal today, which highlights the difference between a centre forward and the number 10 role. I'm still not sure whether we can bring the best out of Guly; he's obviously got a lot about him but unless he can be given freedom to operate in that position between the midfield and the strikers I don't think we'll ever see the best of him.

Badger Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Guly is ok provided that he acts instinctively and doesn't have time to think about what to do. Does he have to think about not falling over ?

Deliberate handball = yellow card. Today's ref showed consistency with the rules and didn't have a choice as Forte handballed it with obvious intent right in front of Massey. If she hadn't flagged and he hadn't booked Forte then they'd have been in the ****. I'm pretty sure that we won't see anyone on MOTD tonight handball it so blatantly deliberately when it is in play and get away with it. For me, the problem is that managers whine endlessly that they want consistency and common sense, which is contradictory.

Nexstar Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I have slated Guly for a few weeks now (still rightly so IMO), but I have never seen him as a winger, he doesn't have the pace or delivery as such. Centre-forward he's a decent player - doesn't need the blistering pace but needs vision and a fairly decent finish, and he can do both. From the wings he seem to struggle with these things. It's just been an unlucky month in terms of losing both our outstanding wingers and Guly being forced out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely a central player, either just off the striker or in midfield. Problem is it seems that Lambert likes to play just off the striker as well so if it's the two of them up front together then they have to take it in turns. For my money, he (Guly) is most certainly not suited to playing out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david in sweden Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I remember a certain commentator remarking that Matt Le Tissier had done nothing all game but score two goals. Guly, although not in Matt's league, is similar. He frustrates the hell out of you but has the abillity to do some very special things. He just won't please any supporter who rates someone on their ability to 'put in a shift'. Almost sounds like one of those old " Lazy Rasiak " threads a few years. He frustrated the h*ll out of everyone, but still ended up with 20 important gaols that season. If we win automatic promotion by 2 points, we may well be able to point to his (Guly) goal today as the deciding factor in our promotion to CCC.

Nexstar Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 Interesting you say that about pace; I think he's got quite a turn of speed on him... I say that in comparison to Lallana, AOC, Forte and Barnard. He's not slow, but I don't think he utilises his pace. Like today, he'd get the ball and then slow down to walking pace or stop. I can't remember during the game when he really did a surging run forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 The two players in the centre of midfield are the main reason we are underperforming. Hammond, Stephens, Chaplow and Schneiderlin are just not strong enough. We play an enormous number of meaningless round robin passes that go nowhere and just invite the opposition to close us down because of the negative slowness of our play. Our two central midfielders basically hang around the centre circle, Stephens is neat and tidy, painfully deliberate and totally unambitious, whilst Hammond provides effort but little else and no leadership. We need leaders in central midfield showing the same basic football understanding that Connolly does naturally. We were a different team late in the second half after Connolly came on. Connolly has a proper football brain and his movement and passing ability brought the best in football terms out of Guly and Lambert, which then involved other players like Dickson, Butterfield and N'Guessan. It is a crying shame that we had in Forte the quickest player on the field yet nobody played him in down the line. Invariably he was taking the ball square with the fullback trying to get outside him, instead of playing him down the line and getting up in support. If Connolly can stay fit we will be a better team. In footballing terms we still need two strong leaders in midfield. Just floating this out there for comments, but could Connolly play in centre midfield? Quite a few strikers in the twilight of their careers adopt a deeper role, could he do a job there? Mark Hughes springs to mind. That'd be killing two birds with one stone. Too risky a time in the season perhaps, but an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back I think there were a few decent chances. As you say Lamberts free header up the Chapel and Forte stabbing wide at the same end. Forte's header up the other end looked as though he scuffed it a bit!!!, but Guly's early effort was well saved. We probably were better than my initial thoughts, but I still felt we were misfiring and given the squad we really should be playing better. But seeing it in the flesh is not the same as listening on the radio, and it does annoy me somewhat how people can be so cutting or opinionated when they didn't even go.

And there I was thinking this was football forum where people could share their thoughts and opinions on the game they had just seen. FWIW, I was 100% behind every player at the match today as I am at all the matches I go to. I find nothing controversial in giving my all to the team at the game and then being honest about how I feel afterwards.

Crab Lungs Posted 16 April, 2011 Share Posted 16 April, 2011 I didn't go today but the centre of midfield always seems to be a problem. If it is the midfield, it would almost certainly be the "blend" we have. By the looks of things, the nearest thing we have to the correct blend is the Schneiderlin/Hammond partnership with the rest of the pairings almost a much of a muchness. Shame we didn't go for a Graham Kavanagh type player in the window but I'm confident we've got enough to just see us over the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
