Saints vs. Newcastle Thread

[BotleySaint]

Lemina is standing out, class...wtf was that from Maya?

Not really his main position attacking midfield

[Saint Billy]

This is really sickening stuff to watch.

[shurlock]

Terrible ball from Yoshi, but at least he is trying to make something happen.

 

Miscommunication rather than a bad ball.

[OttawaSaint]

Well, Lemina still looks good...

 

Too bad his shot didn’t fly in, never seems to happen for us (happens to us quite a bit)

[OttawaSaint]

Haven’t even noticed Bertrand yet.

[striker]

Its the philosophy. Possession over attacking, passing it around between the mids and defenders way away from goal. Why do the strikers even bother making runs? It makes it very easy on the D.

[DT]

Pellegrino really hasn't got it. Good job we said no to that Silva chappie

pass it around at the back, ping it wide to redmond or tadic who play it further back

and repeat

[Heisenberg]

Anyone else getting sleepy watching this

[Golac's Iron Gonads]

yoshida to cedric to lemina to Van dijk to bertrand to romeu to bertrand to Yoshida to lemina to cedric to romeu

 

'kin awful

 

all those one touch drills they do in the warm up are they completely pointless?

 

3 posts and out that more points than we'll get in the next 6 weeks

[SNSUN]

Can we just score please. This is getting really old.

[Mr X]

All the players seem to ‘like’ Pellegrino. I wonder if he is scared of criticising them at all, laying into them at half time?

You could be onto something there he was very laid-back at his previous club & by all accounts is a nice guy, sound familiar?

What’s with the 50 yard chest height crossfield ball we keep doing?

[hypochondriac]

Have we had a shot on target yet?

[Pamplemousse]

There’s no way we’re scoring next week either. Not against Tony Pulis.

[Batman]

Have we had a shot on target yet?

 

nope.

 

Pellegrino wil do better than Puel in keeping his job past xmas

[OttawaSaint]

Another attack ruined because Tadic has to drag back to his left.

[Saint Albert]

Have we had a shot on target yet?

 

Don’t think so...and as I type Long has a decent break but his shot is blocked.

[SaltashSaint]

The ridiculous thing is that we have two up front, yet we just aren't putting the ball in the box. Gabbi has done absolutely nothing all game.

[Viking Saint]

Newcastle have scored an away goal in the 1st half of a PL match for the first time since Nov 2015 at C Palace; 687 days ago.

[adrian lord]

The Premier League at its magnificent swashbuckling best.

120 more passes than them. GET IN!!!!

[Colinjb]

This feels so.... Sterile.

[hypochondriac]

I couldn't remember one but I've only vaguely been paying attention because I'm bored solid again.

[saintsmike25]

Well Shane Long and Gab have barely had a touch. We are not finding Gabbi's feet and likewise he isn't finding space.

[OttawaSaint]

Can somebody just attack the ball and smash it in. Fuuuuuck!

[Pamplemousse]

Another wasted free kick

[Viking Saint]

Friend seems to be giving us quite a lot for a change???

[OttawaSaint]

Don’t think so...and as I type Long has a decent break but his shot is blocked.

 

He dallied on it.

[Heisenberg]

nope.

 

Pellegrino wil do better than Puel in keeping his job past xmas

 

Let Reed pick again?

 

Lightening doesn't strike three times right?

[badgerx16]

Why do you not get a yellow card for putting your hands around an opponent's throat ?

[Norm]

65% possession and 3000 passes sideways and their keeper hasn’t had a save to make.

[Saint Albert]

Decent opportunity for Tadic blocked.

[niceandfriendly]

Ref is giving us absolutely everything too.

[Ohio Saint]

Not even watching any more, getting some time in the garden while listening to big dave

[Saint_clark]

Well Shane Long and Gab have barely had a touch. We are not finding Gabbi's feet and likewise he isn't finding space.

 

For all this talk about Gabbiadinis movement, he's not exactly making himself available or getting on the end of these balls into the box.

 

Tadic is on the left and Redmond on the right and, shock horror, we actually start to look better.

[Batman]

what a shock, tadic looks more dangerous in the last 5 mins playing from the left

[saintsmike25]

Redmond is awful and Tadic playing much better than in previous games...

[OttawaSaint]

When we get free kicks and corners all our players seem to end up,in the 6 yard box and there’s no one to attack that second ball.

[Colinjb]

Better, some more unpredictable movement off the ball and incisive passing. But still no bite.

[Batman]

better football.....tadic and redmond swapped, nearly came off

[Pamplemousse]

Does anyone think that posting images of some nuns will work?

[Saint Albert]

We’re putting them under pressure a bit now, but still no shot for the keeper to save.

[BotleySaint]

Some good little bits of play in the last 5 mins. But still no decent shots.

[Suhari]

Redmond is awful and Tadic playing much better than in previous games...

 

Yep.

 

Let's get Boufal on for the second half.

[Ohio Saint]

Does anyone think that posting images of some nuns will work?

 

Works for me at least

[striker]

frustration now setting in

[Saint Albert]

Does anyone think that posting images of some nuns will work?

 

It won’t hurt...
