Sheaf Saint Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 West Ham were crap. Utter, utter crap. They were there for the taking and we couldn't find the quality to unlock their defence. Not too dis-heartened because we looked rock solid at the back (apart from one pinball moment leading up to Collins' spooned effort) but we are 4 games into the season and we still haven't scored from open play. Worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turkish Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 The lack of goals is a massive worry. Only 5 goals in 9 games now, yes The keeper made some good saves and we hit the bar but there is a worrying trend forming in that we can't break teams down and quite simply can't score.

Edmonton Saint Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Woeful.West Ham came looking for a point and got it easily. We lack cutting edge and are far too one dimensional. We don't ever look like scoring which is very alarming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint-Armstrong Posted 15 September, 2013 Author Share Posted 15 September, 2013 I thought Osvaldo was great for us today. Didn't think we were poor second half, bitty first half though.

Special K Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Poor game. Still letting signings gel into team (except lovren). First touches need to be worked on. Seem to have lost some bite and try to walk the ball into the net. Perfect game for 25 yard shots dipping in front of keeper but neither team tried this. Strange.

redkeith Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Ossie looked lively, shame he didn't lift that shot. Wham set up to stop our fullbacks getting forward, which worked, but we did get through them a few times, only to be let down by poor touches from AL and particularly JayRod. The only worry really was from corners, but we defended them well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corky morris Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Very poor today. Very slow going forward with little creativity. Thought Wanyama was poor. His passing was shocking. West Ham were terrible & we still couldn't score!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set pieces poor too and 4 games now without a goal from open play. We created multiple chances. I'm happy to agree when I feel it's right, but we did fashion 'decent' chances. Set pieces poor?

Saint86 Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Still no goals from open play (am I allowed to voice that as a concern yet), 2 goals all season.. and the best team we've played is Norwich. Plus 20m spenton mmidfield an attack with Wanyama looking worse than cork by the game. Still. Today was always going to be ugly. Coulve easily lost against another team we can't break down. We have more points than we had from these fixtures last season. Just. And the true market will be anfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smirking_Saint Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Jaaskelainen played well, we dominated possession again but we are struggling to put the ball away.

NewYorkSaint Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 I don't understand why Lallana is always first man off... but I thought second half strong overall, and on another day we'd be 2-0 winners. Morgan had a couple of spectacular strikes, Wanyama a lot better second half and Osvaldo is exciting to watch. I have a hunch we'll surprise Liverpool next week.

Baird of the land Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Osvaldo looked lively, Lambert looked decent, the defence was pretty solid with exception of panic where collins almost scored. Terrible conditions, mediocre west ham team, 2 points dropped. Personally Wanyama was rather poor today and Saints were far too slow and cumbersome in possession. Can't believe Cork wasn't even on the bench as i would had him on today to get us moving the ball around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bewildered Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Also, the attacking midfielders have got to come short and show some decent off the ball movement and give our CBs and DMs a good option to play it forward when play starts at the back. Lallana and Rodriguez don't do this, they wait for the ball to come to them by which time opposition have either organised themselves properly to deal with it or have someone on them ready to steal the ball.

Kingsbridge Saint Posted 15 September, 2013 Share Posted 15 September, 2013 Just not clinical enough in the final third. Too many poor touches and hands held up to apologise. Sort it out ffs. And bench Wanyama for home games - too slow and cant pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
