Lighthouse Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Lambert looks like someone put ketamine in his breakfast at the moment. Slow and not controlling the ball well at all.

DG Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Shaky at back, wayward passes in midfield and toothless upfront apart from JWP's balls to Lambert. Lots to sort out at HT but at least we have options on the bench. Prediction league 1 -1 looks spot on at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 well that was frustrating. There are goals here for us but we need to move the ball quicker. Some lovely deliveries from Ward Prowse but not really being attacked properly. So slow getting it forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Patrón Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Pretty poor by everyone except Wanyama and JWP. Not sure who I'd take off for Osvaldo atm, Lambert looks like he's treading water but is always a threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted 24 August, 2013 Author Share Posted 24 August, 2013 We look good passing it about. Then just the diagonal for a knock down. Seem to be slow getting it forward This is definitely a case of having to break someone down. They are here to hit on the break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suhari Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Moving the ball too slowly; lacking anything in the final third. JWP looks decent, offering some urgency. Lallana not doing much, nor JRod. SRL being well marshalled. Were going longer in the last few minutes. Need some urgency and penetration. Ramirez and Danni on for J-Rod and Lallana please.

Baird of the land Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Potch has to work out a way to play against teams that aren't going to come on to Saints. Lambert is clearly causing them problems but too much of our possession is in front of their 2 banks of four, rather than finding a way to get into the channels behind them.

Minty Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Patience required - we're controlling the majority of the game which is a good place to start, and we have had a few good openings - one good goal ruled out for offside, and a couple of other half shouts for penalties which although none were clear cut, could still have been given by another ref. No reason to panic - just need to keep belief in what we're doing and keep probing for openings. I'm not too worried about us in defence apart from the odd occasions when we've conceded possession cheaply. Lambert is doing ok too IMO - had a couple of chances and is getting in amongst them. Theplayers need to keep calm and not let the ref and missed opportunities frustrate them. Believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bewildered Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 HT, Not brilliant, lots of the ball but not really creating. Chambers should have gotten closer to Giaccherini for the goal IMO. Shaw and Lambert have not played to their usual standards and Lallana has been poor, JWP's crossing has been good though. 2nd half need the Full Backs to push forward better, Chambers looks frightened to go forward. Get Gaston and Osvaldo on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint_Tony Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 Very poor indeed, draw is the best we can hope for now. At least we have decent options on the bench, for a change Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Patrón Posted 24 August, 2013 Share Posted 24 August, 2013 I've missed a lot of the play, but I've hardly seen a peep out of J Rod Done nothing other than his disallowed goal really, but we're desperately lacking pace up front so not sure whether I'd take him or Lambert off. Probably Rodriguez for Osvaldo and Ramirez for Lallana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
