Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 As our superb season draws to a close, who makes your SAINTS team of the season? Boruc Clyne Shaw Lovren Fonte Davis Cork Schneiderlin Lallana Lambert Rodriguez
Bearsy Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Not much room for debate ain't it. The only two who've had any sort of battle for their spots is clyne & cork
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Author Posted 5 May, 2014 Not much room for debate ain't it. The only two who've had any sort of battle for their spots is clyne & cork JWP? Ramirez? Both have made a number of appearances this season. Guess weve had a pretty solid 11 starting most games this season
farawaysaint Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 JWP? Ramirez? Both have made a number of appearances this season. Guess weve had a pretty solid 11 starting most games this season It is literally just going to be a battle for Clyne and Cork and 90% of people will choose Clyne. Cork vs Wanyama will be the only debate of any substance.

shurlock Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Riveting thread. My head hurts just thinking about the infinitely branching options and permutations that are available.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Author Posted 5 May, 2014 We have been very lucky with injuries and suspensions this seasons, thats for sure. Allowed us to play a very regular and stable side throughout
Bearsy Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 We have been very lucky with injuries and suspensions this seasons, thats for sure. Allowed us to play a very regular and stable side throughout Not so much that, more that the understudies like Osvaldo, g-nigga, jos, maya, fox, kelvin, Ramirez, ward prowse, Gallagher etc were not v.convincing
shurlock Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 We've been very unlucky with injuries this season, that's for sure. Shown us just how thin the squad is and what little quality in depth we have.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Gazzanigga Chambers Yoshi Jos Fox JWP Reed Gaston Guly Rowe Ossie

Saint_Tony Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 As our superb season draws to a close, who makes your SAINTS team of the season? Boruc Clyne Shaw Lovren Fonte Davis Cork Schneiderlin Lallana Lambert Rodriguez Think it has to be that. Wanyama hasn't played enough and has been poor in a few games. Chambers also hasn't played that many games

Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Author Posted 5 May, 2014 Think it has to be that. Wanyama hasn't played enough and has been poor in a few games. Chambers also hasn't played that many games In the league - Chambers 18 / Clyne 19 Cork 20 / Wanyama 18
VectisSaint Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 We have been very lucky with injuries and suspensions this seasons, thats for sure. Allowed us to play a very regular and stable side throughout Apart from December and January of course, when we were without Boruc, Lovren, Fonte, Schneiderlin, Wanyama, Ramirez, Osvaldo and others for varying amounts of time, strangely coincident with our run of bad form. But for sure its easy to pick our best XI, with only the Clyne/Chambers and Wanyama/Cork decisions really to be made.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Author Posted 5 May, 2014 JWP has played a number of games, but not even an option? Showed alot of promise early on
Saint_Tony Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 No. I've been critical of him several times and still have the opinion that he's not good enough. Don't think he offers a lot, and is too lightweight. A lot of posters have been banging on about his excellent dead ball delivery. How many goals and assists does he have?
Saint Garrett Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Obviously Boruc, Clyne Fonte Lovren Shaw, Cork Morgan, Davis Lallana Rodriguez, Lambert.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Only debatable one is probably Chambers vs Clyne.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Author Posted 5 May, 2014 No. I've been critical of him several times and still have the opinion that he's not good enough. Don't think he offers a lot, and is too lightweight. A lot of posters have been banging on about his excellent dead ball delivery. How many goals and assists does he have? 0 goals 2 assists i think? Sunderland at home and away at Stoke in November
Sour Mash Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Tells a bit of a story that it is so clear cut in terms of best XI this season, just goes to further show how much we further options throughout the side.
georgeweahscousin Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Chambers and Wanyama over Clyne and Cork for me I can't choose between Chambers and Clyne. Wanyama edges it for me in midfield, our record when he has played can't be ignored.
nta786 Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Boruc Clyne (I think we play better with him but can understand why people would say Chambers) Lovren Fonte Shaw Wanyama Schneiderlin Davis Lallana JRod Lambert.
SNSUN Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Agree the only conundrum is Chambers or Clyne. Clyne for me, just, although Chambers was preferred in some games. Had Osvaldo not acted like a **** and finished his season off with us, I still think he could have been in there. He has some skills, and while he only scored thrice for us, would have grown into the Premier League over time. Moot point though. With a possible depleted squad next year, I wager Wanyama will be in our team of the year next year.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 What about Chairperson? Gotta be super kat for me.
melmacian_saint Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 If we consider our best part of the season, then I'd say the standard team and Clyne/Wanyama. Overall, I'd still consider Clyne over Chambers. Clyne has been very good but he got injured halfway through the season. Had this not happened, I doubt Chambers would've had that many chances to justify such a long run of games. He did play well and certainly in the future I think Chambers will become our no.1 RB but Clyne is better than him right now. Possibly the player I feel is most likely to be sold should a good bid come in. The situation is the same re Wanyama. Cork would've probably played much less this season had he not had his injury and struggled to return to form. However, as we already knew, Jack has the technical ability that our short passing game demands and you can tell the difference between his and Victor's passes. He has been excellent at times so he may just get in over Wanyama in my best team. I do feel however that he will be playing less and less should both be in squad next season. The DM position is more about presence and pressure than technique.
70's Mike Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 Hate to have to do it but Victor over Jack Cork or Steve Davis, both who are better players but Victor fulfills the role which has led to so many clean sheets better than anyone else.
teacher Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 When Big Vic plays we hardly concede. He has to be in the Team of the Year for me.
Convict Colony Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 As our superb season draws to a close, who makes your SAINTS team of the season? Boruc Clyne Shaw Lovren Fonte Davis Cork Schneiderlin Lallana Lambert Rodriguez Whose in your Saintsweb team of the season ? here's mine: Boruc = Glasgow, slightly mental but we notice when he isn't here. Clyne = Alp's cos clyney goes up and down the pitch as often as Alp's emotional roller coaster during the season Fonte = Pap cos it seems he has been here ages and direct's rep points. Lovren = Goatboy as best "newcomer" to the team. Shaw = Vacant - As I have yet to find anyone who can boast a Nando's record to match Luke. Big Vic = Tokyo Saint cos after his father in law and dogging walk stories no man can get past him. Spiderman = St Chalet for intercepting and shutting down any wayward threads before they escalated. Davies = Gotta be Barry for his persistent nature and believing in death by a thousand cuts approach to making a point. Lallana = Bearsy, unpredictable price pikey who is also team capt for his outstanding work on the 50 shades of grey thread. JRod = Pastor Patron for consistently point scoring well this season but tailed off recently. Rickie = Dubai Phil as he is used to lots balls flying towards him.

There is no up and down going on, it's just down, down, down. Turkish is osvaldo. Spikey, difficult character who thinks he's a cut above the rest, but aside from the odd moment of brilliance (goal v man city) is not very good, a waste of time, and generally loathed by his team mates. In terms of the team, has to be victor for me. Our defensive record with him in the team means he has to play, much as I like cork. And agree, chambers v Clyne is difficult, but Clyne edges it IMHO.

Badger Posted 5 May, 2014 Posted 5 May, 2014 What about Chairperson? Gotta be super kat for me. Yes, the KL/RK ticket gets my vote on that one.
Cascadia Saint Posted 6 May, 2014 Posted 6 May, 2014 JWP has played a number of games, but not even an option? Showed alot of promise early on Instead of who, though? I think that 11 pretty much picks itself.
Cascadia Saint Posted 6 May, 2014 Posted 6 May, 2014 Alps as Clyne? There is no up and down going on, it's just down, down, down. Turkish is osvaldo. Spikey, difficult character who thinks he's a cut above the rest, but aside from the odd moment of brilliance (goal v man city) is not very good, a waste of time, and generally loathed by his team mates. I think Alpine has to be Jos. Own goal after own goal, generally mistrusted but many seem to have a soft spot for him, eventually out of the team but still pops up to have a quick pint with the lads.
