SuperSAINT Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 The problem with pressing football is it takes too much out of the players as evidenced by the way Pochs teams fall away at the end of seasons and why Poch never really showed interest in the cups With the large number of games we have this season we are playing a less intensive system the question is will it work? I'll take a pressing season where we fall away in the last few games & have to put up with Champions League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 HT. really hate this formation. Redmond is not a striker and continue to play him as such is part of the reason why we are in and out of the bottom 3 Get Austin and Hoj on ffs. Davis been good though.

ashnats Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 We look brilliant, such a good passing side, this is how football should be played!

James Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 Redmond experiment has to stop. He's a championship winger playing up front for a top half Premier League team. What on earth must Austin be thinking on the bench?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 Here's what I think. Players are put in positions that they can play well, based on their physical attributes. We need to play them where they should, and where they feel most comfortable, instead of trying to manufacture a different solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Chalet Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 Some reasons to be cheerful. Fonte, VVD and Bertrand look solid. Romeu having a decent game. Tadic lively and we are creating opportunities. Hopefully we will see Austin on for Redmond at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stknowle Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 STRIKER. Not impressed by the Austin chants straight away, though. Redmond needs support.

USA SaintsFan Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 Yet again, good play should have scored clearly. Austin wouldn't have missed.

Shance Posted 18 September, 2016 Share Posted 18 September, 2016 Some comical comments in here. We've actually played pretty well. Some really nice passing and possession based football and we've carved them open a few times. We just need someone, anyone to put their shooting boots on.
