Roger Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Looked like he pulled up with something just after half time. Has Adkins said anything as important we get him Back.
Halo Stickman Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Loved his reaction, sat behind Nige, when our third goal went in!
farawaysaint Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Oh good, we've bought a South American ice sculpture
Avenue Saint Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Loved his reaction, sat behind Nige, when our third goal went in! This. You can see what 'together as one' actually means...
Greenridge Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Oh good, we've bought a South American ice sculpture Even on a day like today we've got a whinger lol.
Delboy Dave Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Missed it his celebration, was too busy jumping round the front room. What did he do?
ottery st mary Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Coming back after injury.. V Swansea and now QPR after long journey and 40 odd minutes in International game.. When fully fit in our much improving team.. Top class. But NA made a good call with sub at that time.. Well done NA for throwing in Shaw these last two games..building up match fitness and will get better and stronger..Talented lad.. Well done NA for sticking with Puncheon:)....with Clyne and his inter play from Clyne through to Cork and Morgan and up to Lallana and Lambert and of course with Gaston.. Well done Punch.. Well done the travelling support...World Class...Like the mighty Saints:rolleyes:
Halo Stickman Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Missed it his celebration, was too busy jumping round the front room. What did he do? He clenched his fists, raised his arms in celebration and looked really happy!
Ohio Saint Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Loved his reaction, sat behind Nige, when our third goal went in! He looks like a nice young man, I'll stand right behind him. Er, no, that didn't come out right.
RonManager Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 He caught fire and was burnt to the ground.
Saint Charlie Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Was a good sub, Davis raised the tempo and was good going foward. Gaston class on the ball.
Suomi Saint Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 No, he's not injured. It was a tactical sub...and it worked a treat.
Ohio Saint Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 No, he's not injured. It was a tactical sub...and it worked a treat. And watch him go next game now that he knows he can be subbed.
Gis Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Well it looked like his Achilles was playing up to me, which may explain why he didn't run through and score when he looked to be odds on to outpace the last man in the second half.
pingwing Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Gaston burnt himself out with some amazing ON THE BREAK turn of pace about 3 mins before he was subbed, looked SHATTERED after that from the international game and the coming back to fitness. Davis did his role very very well thankfully

Davis did his role very very well thankfully The match day thread went into meltdown when Davis came on! The same when Fox came on for Shaw, just shows how prior experiences this year have tainted our opinion on substitutes!
LostBoys Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 It looked like he turned his ankle when he was tackled (in fact fouled)
pingwing Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 The match day thread went into meltdown when Davis came on! The same when Fox came on for Shaw, just shows how prior experiences this year have tainted our opinion on substitutes! Haha! Yeah the guys around me were screaming for blood on the Fox substitution (despite the fact Fox was alright and Shaw isn't match fit) and no one seemed impressed with the Davis substitution at the time it was made. Seems playing him in his less favoured role (in the deep lying role) has ruined everyone opinions of a player that is a bit of a beast. Thinking back to City away he got the going forward from midfield role and scored on his debut because he is really good in that sort of position. He caused QPR all sorts of problems today and arguably was more effective than Gaston. For back on topic I do like Gaston, always impresses me on the ball, just was really a bit tired today when things got on a bit.
Lighthouse Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 I think it was a good sub. Gaston was class on the ball but looked a bit off the pace and gave the ball away trying to be too clever. Davis gave us a bit more grit and helped us dominate the midfield.
BadgerBadger Posted 17 November, 2012 Posted 17 November, 2012 Gaston is only going to get better once he adapts to the Prem and get's match fitness also remember he's not played that many games with the lads and he's looking pretty damn comfortable
Sour Mash Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 We looked a fair bit better when Davis came on to be honest. Ramirez hasn't quite got going for me yet, still early days obviously.
Chez Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 Great sub. Adkins got almost all his subs right last season, it's not worked out that way this season. Maybe he's got his mojo (the luck) back.
Saint_DB Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 Definitely took a knock early in the second half after a tackle. Stayed down for a few seconds, got up gingerly, hobbled about a bit and seemed to try and get on with it. I think Adkins was being cautious while at the same time made a good tactical decision.
SaintBobby Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 Yep, watched the game again on Sky. He did take a knock before being subbed - but don't know if this was the reason or just a contributory factor or neither.
Colbury Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 Loved his reaction, sat behind Nige, when our third goal went in! Me too. Good to see the players care. Mayuka went mental on goal 1 too. Complete contrast to the injured/unselected players who sit up in the box directly behind me at home games. Apart from one occasion I have never seen any of them cheer or even raise a smile when we score as if they couldn't give a sh*t unless they are playing. The one player who did was Lallana when Guly scored a late winner VS Bristol Rovers in L1 promotion season. Lallana was out injured and went mental, and joined in with the Guly song whilst stood up on the railings.
Saint Garrett Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 According to stats is our fastest player! Hasn't been great since he's come back but he'll only improve. He's still young and still learning the English game. Special talent though he has such a fantastic touch.
carljack Posted 18 November, 2012 Posted 18 November, 2012 90% + pass completion rate ! the boys a Rolls Royce,I still cant believe he plays for us, marvellous really when we nearly did a Pompey four years ago. Saint till I die!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
