Batman Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Thought that was a great effort we lost not for any defensive cock ups, but for poor finishing we should have gone in HT at least 1-0 up. Clyne missed an absolute sitter really nothing you can really do about bale, one of the best players in the world right now and goals like that are the reason if wigan beat swansea tuesday, I am worried.

Roger Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 We lost this game with our poor final ball and finishing. Lallana's free kicks were dreadful, lambert cant buy a goal at mo. Cork and steven davis panicked with possesion in the final 20 mins when a calm head was needed. We are in deep trouble now I fear. Congrats for nigel on your'e first win. 0 goals for 3 games isnt good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheaf Saint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Absolutely inevitable from the moment the game kicked off. Good play from Saints, good possession - waste a couple of chances and then concede a goal like that from the only person it could possibly have been. Is anybody else slightly worried that for the last 3 games we haven't really looked capable of scoring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BotleySaint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Played very very well. Should have taken the lead if we'd had a bit more in the final third. Same story as a lot of our games this season. Won in the end by one moment from Bale. But I am definitely more concerned after 2 defeats in a row. Can't see us beating Sunderland.. we could easily be staring at 4 straight defeats to end the season. Should be safe .. but Wigan and Villa are fighting.

Lighthouse Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 I am worried BUT if we play like that against Sunderland and Stoke we will get some points. A very good performance without Morgan in a game I thought we'd get spanked in. 2 weeks in a row West Brom have shafted us. If they can get ANY kind of results next week at Norwich that should see us safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yate Saint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Played excellently today overall. Bale scores a cracking goal while making his old team sweat it out more in the relegation fight. If Wigan win game in hand then it could be us in the bottom 3 come the end of the seaon. Nervous times ahead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northam soul Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Oh dear last game nail biter again me thinks.Perhaps all those we are safe brigade will now acknowledge we are in real danger.

redkeith Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Robbed. No way we deserved to lose that, great hit but one of the CM's should have been across to block it. Bad set of results today. Michu probably out of the Wigan game and it's looking a bit grim. Just hope that a better WBA than today turn up at Carrow road next week. All eyes on Il Duce /Stoke now.

Dr. Kucho Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 We didnt deserve to lose, draw would have been a fair result. Thought all the players did well and good to see Fonte back.

niceandfriendly Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Oh, and as much as I love Lallana for what he has done for this club, he has been so disappointing this season.

Mayuka was close by but stopped running whereas Rodriguez HAD been getting back and getting a foot in. Am I worried? Damned right!

Fozzybear Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 It was never going to be easy, but we must keep the faith. We didn't deserve to get beat today and with other results going against us we are right back in the mix. Our sudden loss of the ability to stick it in the back of the net worries me, but it is still in our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSaint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Didn't take our chances, Spurs were ****e then Gareth Bale had a chance and won the game. Thought we lost the midfield when Guly went off injured.

Cabrone Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Not a bad performance but unfortunately not an entirely unexpected result. Our situation is the same as last week, we need another win from 2 games. Sunderland(a) isn't going to be easy but we have to try and get the win. Oh, and could all those on here waffling on about us being safe just STFU please. Wait until it's (hopefully) mathematically certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Who? Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 I also think that a point will not make any difference as Wigan will need 2 wins to over take us if we have 39 or 40 and they get the 2 wins we will be below them. Win at Sunderland is what we need simples. Also if Norwich do not WIN next week, they will not end about us as it stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bale gets nothing from Clyne all game so switches across to roast a young left back and succeeds. No disgrace - Shaw could easily be as good as Bale in a year or two.

WealdSaint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 We played really well. Deserved a draw. I think all Saints players had a fair game. Guly played well. We didn't look so good once Adam went off.

monosaint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 Still quite a few results would have to go against us to get relegated including our own games. Today we looked pretty comfortable throughout. Just needed a moment of brilliance to foil us. We hit the post and should have had a couple more. We play like that and we can get 6 points from the final 2 games. Let's be positive.

Chez Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 thought our back four were terrific. Clyne looked the best player on the park for me again. Apart from one poor pass and the miss he hardly out a foot wrong. Fonte and Jos have come in for a lot of stick but Defoe didn't have a sniff. Why Yoshida gets in ahead if Fonte I wilk never know. Shaw looked a little rusty and his pace was nullified by Walker, but we just look far more comfortable with him in the side. I don't blame him for the goal. He just couldn't get close enough to Bale, who had done **** all, and having gone all the way across there must have been someone to step in. Perhaps Jos coukd have stepped up but Bale hit it so early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melmacian_saint Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 We played well, and were unfortunate not to score. Lallana's season has been disappointing. End of. In the end I felt we became a bit too deep and speculative and someone's sheer quality decided. I hope Wigan's rally backfires on them next Tuesday as an angry Swansea want to keep their top 10 finish hopes alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boruc 6 Clyne 7 Fonte 7 Jos 7 Shaw 6 Cork 6 Davis 7 Guly 7 Rodriguez 6 Lambert 6 Lallana 5 Punch 5 Mayuka 5 Agree for the most part though i'd be tempted to give lallana a six, caused some problems and offered something just still needs to find his shooting boots, his touch over vertonghen was genuinely le tiss esque the finish however was far from. Davis, Fonte or Clyne for motm. All played their part and looked positive apart from Clyne's miss. Sentiment says Fonte as it was great to see him back and proving the doubters but I think it has to be Davis for stepping into a midfield without Morgan. Special mention to Guly, looked lively, few good ideas and touches almost created ur best chances and was not afraid to get stuck in. Would love to see him get another crack against sunderland if im honest with Punch out of favour and ramirez out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 That was a much better performance than WBA - to effectively outplay a CL contender on their own pitch should give us confidence for the last 2.

ART Posted 4 May, 2013 Share Posted 4 May, 2013 If Puncheon had been on in the first half instead of that waster Lallana, we'd have taken advantage of Spurs and scored goals when they were half asleep. It's tragic Pochettino keeps picking Lallana to uninspire the team. Worse Saints Captain in my 64 years of supporting Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
