Post Match Reaction: SAINTS 2-3 Aston Villa


Saint-Armstrong

Recommended Posts

Saints go behind twice and claw it back, but a Delph belter wins it for Villa.

 

Crazy result. Felt Gazzaniga could've done more with the 2nd but other than that, was not helped by Yoshida and Lovren.

 

 

Jack Cork? Very poor IMO. Same for Maya.

 

 

 

If Wanyama had the game Cork just had, there would be an inquisition right now.

No Morgan or Boruc = We will lose.

Cork is not up to it. Gazza is not up to it.

With Morgan on the pitch and Boruc in the goal we would never have lost this game.

Also we would have needed Fonte as CB instead of Uselesshida.

 

**** this.

Yoshida was at fault for 2 of there goals. Lovren and Cork both give the ball away within seconds of each other leading to other.

 

If Wanyama was on Delph wouldnt of scored that 3rd.

 

Too many errors has cost us this game, Dominated but lost!!

Frustrated, nothing more to say really.

 

3 mistakes gifted them the goals, though that last one from them was a very good goal, Gazza not to blame for any of the goals. With the possesion and room Villa gave us we should have done much more, and Chambers (was he on the bench?) should have replaced Clyne, not Fonte.

 

Think some of the first team players are starting to feel tired and need a rest.

If you replayed that game 10 times, we would win the other 9. There were long spells where we were playing brilliantly. But the defensive frailty w/o Boruc (and with a game-starved Yoshida) is certainly alarming. Hard to account for wonder goals, though.

 

City on Saturday will be huge.

Been out and only got back for the last 5 minutes. Seems as though we actually played pretty well and deserved to win but got mugged. It's football - that happens. Anybody remember away at Villa last season when we won thanks to a dodgy penalty? What about the Leeds game in our Championship season?

Disagree about Cork was good and did nothing wrong bar the cock up for the second.

 

People need to stop jumping off cliffs. We have lost a game that we should have won. Away at Chelsea and Away at Arsenal is about damage limitation 0pts and - 4 goals was mission accomplished.

 

We were undone by three acts of complacency on the ball.

Think the City game is about damage limitation tbh

Utter rubbish and as usual the usual 'three' overreact and wet the bed

 

We're seventh, were above Man U and Spurs and were going through a rough patch

 

Now is the time to support the team but between now and the next game you three will put up ten thousand posts of guff about bad signings, etc

 

How about you enjoy our most successful season we've had for donkeys years ?

Can we get those threads up from a few weeks ago? The happy ones will be blushing, my prediction does not change we shall be 9th 10th with Cortese having to spend £100 million to progress in to the European places, that aint gonna happen.

 

10th ? That would be a great finish !!!!!

The performance was decent, even if we did lack a little imagination in the final third against a deep defence. Against teams who sit back sometimes I feel like our best chances of scoring are just when we win the ball back or when we just lump it in the box. However, there were many issues tonight:

 

1. We knew the squad was a little thin on quality and we saw that tonight - the selection of Yoshida couldn't be justified whatsoever and that is a mistake from Pochettino.

2. Wanyama needs to be dropped - he was growing on me but tonight he was awful. How can he keep on making the same mistakes? I don't mind mistakes but I hate when players do not learn. He is young and relatively inexperienced but he comes with a price tag.

3. Why is Chambers on the bench if when Clyne gets injured we put on a centre-half in his place?

Gazzaniga nowhere near good enough at this level. As I said in the match thread, you need your goalkeeper to make saves from shots that you don't expect them to (Boruc home vs Swansea this year for instance) In the near game and enough that Gazzaniga has played this season, he has not made one worthwhile save..All I keep hearing is he can't do anything about the goals, that's rubbish, a goalkeepers job is to do something about the goals.

 

Not just judging him on this season, but on last season as well when he made little to no saves of worth in the games he played. As Kelvin is also a disaster waiting to happen, I fear for us. My worst nightmare was Boruc getting injured, and it seems my doomsday scenario is coming to pass.

You see how successful the season is at the end of it.

Freakish result... Wonder goal killed it. Played well. Wannt to be gutted but to be honest this result looks far worse with the 2 games before. Just an unfortunate run of fixtures. Probably will lose to city, but nothing to get upset about! Players showed they gave a sh!t at the end as well. no worries, no anger, COYR
