IronCitySaint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Good thing we have 8 defensive players on the field.
Ohio Saint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 16 months since we won from behind? WTF!?
Edmonton Saint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Last season we were a clean sheet machine, this season its like we have forgotten the art of defending completely. We let in so many poor goals.
Mr X Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Fonte really has been poor lately............... but why?
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Too much chopping and changing for me of late. Our best team is pretty ****ing obvious, but we never really play it.
InvictaSaint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Be nice to get back in it before half time. 45th minute goal for us for once?....

trousers Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Ohio Saint said: 16 months since we won from behind? WTF!? Once in 16 months. Last time was vs Chelsea a couple of months ago
Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Yoshida and Long off at HT. Tadic and Pelle on. Can't just have one threat at PL level.

Mr X Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 It almost feels like game over at one nil, that wouldn't have been the case last season
Ohio Saint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Yeah....That was a comment by the tater.....Didn't sound right at all! (NBC)
Batman Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 we are pretty tragic as an attacking force. for about the 6th or 7th game running
Saint_clark Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 We used Mane all wrong, he drops deep and plays passes forward, great, but with his agility and ability to go past people he should be up top taking it past the defenders instead of midfielders.

Saint_clark Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 F*cking hell?? Foul throw?? Saw nothing wrong there.
Saint Matty 76 Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Why does Cedric absolutely refuse to take on a man?

trousers Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 So close to going 1 nil up but go in half time 1 down. Fine margins.

Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 We have good attacking players. Let them play. Sitting back never works out well for us.
sadoldgit Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Batman said: we absolutely have a better squad though than last year. no doubt Goal attempts Palace 4 Southampton 8
austsaint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Mr X said: Fonte really has been poor lately............... but why? Just done for pace wasn't he! With Bertrand pushed higher up the park, Bolasie exploited the gap.
Batman Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 HT Meh, we look like a pretty average, 14th placed side little creativity, little possession lots and lots of Hoof. thankfully, we have a better squad than last season and the idea of palace finishing above us is 'utter trash' and they, with west ham should be envious of our transfer dealings
SaintAndy14 Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 There's definitely a goal in this for us, couple of good chances in that half. Just depends if we can keep them out at the other end! Draw right now would be a very good result.
ADutchSaint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Koeman really annoys the hell out of me sometimes with his ridiculous tactics.
Pamplemousse Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Time to get the nuns warmed up I think

Saint Charlie Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Definitely seem to lack the tempo, energy, aggression & interest this season compared to previous three.

He does on occasion, as does Bertrand, it's an obvious instruction today to get the balls in early from deep so Long can run onto them and cause a bit of disruption.

Yawn. £12m striker left to resort to "causing a bit of disruption".

kermitsaint Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 Couple of injuries and our ' better than last year ' squad is reduced to this garbage . Gazza has saved shots that were directly at him . Team set up is baffling again . Sent from my SM-G925I using Tapatalk

Bolasie's shot was 'straight at him' and Cabaye's first effort was a veritable piec.e of cake
Bewildered Posted 12 December, 2015 Posted 12 December, 2015 With the players we have we should be using them to keep other sides pinned back, not benching them to make way for extra average defensive players or ones that can't be bothered.
