Saints boy in Leeds Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Yep and I have been massacred for saying that we are still not safe and need another 3 points. Me too
Saints boy in Leeds Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I predicted a win for Saints today...I shouldn't have done that as I have been wrong in my last 10 games ! Are we playing bad or are WBA playing well ?
Ohio Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I have been wrong in my last 10 games ! And then you get upset when people doubt your footballing wisdom.
Barry Sanchez Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I thought we were going to draw or lose simply because I had no inkling at all we were going to win, felt that against Liverpool etc etc but not today.
Sheaf Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Should have been a FK to us just before that. This ref isn't great.
doubleonothing Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Too close. Why are we so weak at defending set pieces?
obelisk Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Actually it's Saints that more likely to concede at the moment. Not creating much at all.
JoeShmoe Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 They could be 4 up by now, this is desperate at the back, reality check
Scoobysaint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 What is becoming even more blatently clear is that Jos and Fox are liabilities. Think we will need to score four to win this!
Sheaf Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Should have conceded again there. This is hard to watch - defending has been utterly comical so far today.
Danish Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Author Posted 27 April, 2013 Dare I say it - but this might be the time for Forren?
CanadaSaint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I can't for the life of me understand why MP picks Jos over Fonte.
Webby Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I can't for the life of me understand why MP picks Jos over Fonte. Cos Fonte plays as RCB
adrian lord Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Easy to underestimate outfits like West Brom. And last week we weren't great either. End of season complacency?
Ohio Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Dare I say it - but this might be the time for Forren? Good call, I'd like us to try it.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 A lot better. Hope we can equalise before HT.
CanadaSaint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Cos Fonte plays as RCB Maya's comfortable either side.
Ohio Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 We will get back into this. WBA are not playing as well as people are saying.
doubleonothing Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Dare I say it - but this might be the time for Forren? Seeing that he's played left back for Norway I don't know why we don't try him instead of Fox.
JoeShmoe Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Rickie's been anonymous so far, so its free kick time!
Sheaf Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I notice Fox still hasn't learned not to head the ball right back into the danger area.
Webby Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Maya's comfortable either side. Fair point. I think the thing is that Jos isn't good enough to cover for Fox. He's ok with Shaw alongside.
CanadaSaint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Fair point. I think the thing is that Jos isn't good enough to cover for Fox. He's ok with Shaw alongside. Couldn't agree more. And the loss of our defensive shape, covering for Shaw, seeps into midfield as well.
Dalek2003 Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Fair point. I think the thing is that Jos isn't good enough to cover for Fox. He's ok with Shaw alongside. Bang on. You are bang on there mate.
Barry Sanchez Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Easy to underestimate outfits like West Brom. And last week we weren't great either. End of season complacency? No we have some **** defenders playing, rocket science it aint.
Webby Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Dont get me started on Danny Fox, there has never been a worse defender for this club at this level, its an absolute disgrace he plays, I will say it again, we have two SPL rejects in our side, that says it all. This^
Danish Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Author Posted 27 April, 2013 Can't believe how crap we are defending on the breaks... Defence is suddenly looking very dodgy and needs a ton of help this offseason.
JoeShmoe Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 I truly hope this offseason we dont spend 3 months chasing a striker, we need at least 3 new defenders, McCauley is out of contract end of season, he's better than anything we've got
adrian lord Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 What? I thought this was the defence that had lost its early season naivety, tightened up and been utterly imperious since Xmas?
Barry Sanchez Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 What? I thought this was the defence that had lost its early season naivety, tightened up and been utterly imperious since Xmas? Care to comment upon that defence now Mr Lord?
adrian lord Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Yea they're ****e and always were if were hinest
Ohio Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 My prediction.....Our defence improves in the second half and we go on to win 2-1
Webby Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Fox plays far too close to Jos. Watch him. He gets drawn in, probably cos he knows that if/when he screws up, Jos can tidy up. Clyne on the other hand, makes up for his own mistakes.
Mr X Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 My prediction.....Our defence improves in the second half and we go on to win 2-1 Hope your mystic meg
Barry Sanchez Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 You were always saying how good Pochettino is and how great our sqaud is, I will always have question marks on Pochettino as long as he picks Jos Hooiveld and Danny Fox in a Premiership side.
mulletsaint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 My prediction.....Our defence improves in the second half and we go on to win 2-1 What we need is Dalek to predict things to get worse.
Barry Sanchez Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 If you study Fox you will see the bellend marks space and not the defender, this is a pub team mistake.
Ohio Saint Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 Hope your mystic meg I might be.....I almost wasn't for a second there (Thanks Boruc) but I may be.
Mr X Posted 27 April, 2013 Posted 27 April, 2013 You were always saying how good Pochettino is and how great our sqaud is, I will always have question marks on Pochettino as long as he picks Jos Hooiveld and Danny Fox in a Premiership side. maybe they are are our only options with injuries?
