jasonb Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 I'm no bedwetter' date=' Romeu looks to be a great addition, but Caulker is very worrying, appalling decision making, poor passing, poor positioning and not dominant in the air, combined with lack of speed, he's looking more of a liability than Fox did. I'd be tempted to send him back from whence he came.[/quote'] In agreement in this
DG Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Neither team look like scoring Now you've done it, we are in the dangerous period before HT where we ALWAYS concede.
BotleySaint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Whichever way we try to dress up the new signings - we are significantly weaker than last year and we have more games to play. It's not a good combination.
adrian lord Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 The Poch Press has completely died away now.
Plastic Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Yes, but you don't just buy SQL and it create a full front end system? That is where it will differ. Oh, and the data of course. You can do what you want. DB=software Data/queries/reports=content This debate is slightly more interesting than the actual football game.
Saint Without a Halo Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Is the Southampton Way now formally declared deceased ? All our youth teams being brought up on one way of playing whilst the first team playing the Fat Sam way without the necessary bulk and height
St.Patrik Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 I was at my 14 year old daughters game earlier today and well lets be nice - that was a crap game and I've said to the missus that it was the worst game I've seen in a while - I'll take that back after this first 35mins : /
DG Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Hopefully Caulker will stay on the bench forever once VVD is over the line. Unless he makes a miraculous improvement.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Long only person doing anything, need another attacker on in place of Davis. Maybe Juanmi/Tadic
Batman Posted 23 August, 2015 Author Posted 23 August, 2015 well, last season away to west ham at this stage we turned it on and kick started our season... hoping
St.Patrik Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Why is Caulcer the one to complain about - what has Pelle done so far???
igsey Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 JWP on for Caulker at half time please. Set pieces seem to be our best chances at the moment, and we'd be better with ten men than with Caulker to be honest.
Plastic Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Why is Caulcer the one to complain about - what has Pelle done so far??? He shouted at Mane a bit.
Atlanta Saint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Did the kits get switched before the game? We look slow and not interested. Watford are playing like they are the Saints from last season
DG Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Why is Caulcer the one to complain about - what has Pelle done so far??? Get no service?
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Perhaps we should give Caulker a bit of a chance to settle before we right him off as we did with some last season
Wiggles31 Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Get to half time and get back to 4-2-3-1. Not watching it it sounds pretty dire thus far. Caulker off at HT.
Donatello Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Wingbacks simply aren't high enough up the pitch (for whatever reason - hesitation, tactics, inability, nativity, etc).
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Did the kits get switched before the game? We look slow and not interested. Watford are playing like they are the Saints from last season They really are not
Plastic Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Where is Clasie? Need him on for ineffective Davis.
Bananaman Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Why is Caulcer the one to complain about - what has Pelle done so far??? tried to control 60 yard passes whilst no saints player is within 10 yards of him...
thorpie the sinner Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Turned on the match thread for the first time ever, think that will be the last time, Sheesh!!!
Saint Without a Halo Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 a very poor non descript first half we look jaded already in only our third match two poor sides so far but Watford having the greater committment
adrian lord Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 We are, quite simply, a very ordinary team this year.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 (edited) You can do what you want. DB=software Data/queries/reports=content This debate is slightly more interesting than the actual football game. Which is why I am saying it's bespoke and you wouldn't be able to buy Saints system off the shelf. The data is provided by our scouting network and the software front end is configured to what we want. Edited 23 August, 2015 by Unbelievable Jeff
OttawaSaint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Gah, we are getting in to some good positions, but then loft passes that take ages to come down and control, keep it on the deck ffs!
Atlanta Saint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 We are crap so far, second to every loose ball and when we do win the ball we can only pass to Watford.
InvictaSaint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Where's Luis Boa Morte when you need him, eh?
Viking Warrior Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 But we are not losing lads Mind you it sounds like one or two of you are Watford supporters judging by the very negative comments about saints so far
BotleySaint Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Ref doesn't like Long then. That's two obvious decisions against him.
Batman Posted 23 August, 2015 Author Posted 23 August, 2015 shane long or a hoof is the bench mark of our creativity what the hell has happened?
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Considering we haven't won away since Feb, and we struggled away at Burnley, QPR and Leicester last year I'm not surprised we're struggling today.
Saint Without a Halo Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Targett, Yoshida Caulker and Soares all not really up to being first choice starters on todays showing so far!Ball bouncing back and forward like a ping pong ball
DG Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Progress has been made - we made it to HT without conceding.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 shane long or a hoof is the bench mark of our creativity what the hell has happened? No Tadic, no Mane, no Clasie, no overlapping fullbacks, only one decent CB. Pretty simple that we are reliant on these lot to actually play to our system.
Diabolus Ex Machina Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Way too direct. Targett is neither going past his man or tracking back quick enough. Would be very tempted to go to 4 at the back second half.
iansums Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 We give the ball away without any pressure so often therefore unable to get any passing game going.
Batman Posted 23 August, 2015 Author Posted 23 August, 2015 HT right now, we look like a side that will scrap it out for 14th. Shame about mane Caulker looks well off the pace. Cedric looked shakey early on Romeu looks very good very little creative spark at all. loads of hoof and a huge gap between pelle/long and everyone else we all know we are miles better than this
Saint Charlie Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Not sure what our style is or what our best team is. Pretty dull and uninspiring.
verlaine1979 Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Unsurprisingly Davis proving as ineffective in his preferred position as he has been in defensive midfield. Can we pleased have Juanmi or Tadic on at half time before our forwards lose the will to live?
Jai27 Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Unfortunately the first half has taught me one thing. Matt Targett is currently no where near the required level to be a premiership player. Looks clueless at times and his offensive capabilities are woeful. If we concede today it'll be down to either him or Caulker f*****g up. On the other hand, Romeu has looked pretty good.
S-Clarke Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Too much gap between the midfield and the attack, thus nothing much happening. Blow to lose Mane, as he was our real threat (as he is most games). Defensively we're a lot better though. Romeu just looks a bit of a player by the way he does things and moves around the pitch.
igsey Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Whats the best stream anyone has? http://skystreams.net/-2-manchester-united-live-streaming.html
Stepgar Posted 23 August, 2015 Posted 23 August, 2015 Looking very poor this season. And don't say it's only three games. It's not. It three league games and three Europa games. We looked ****ed already. My money is on Koeman leaving at the end of the season.
