sotonjoe Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Bit odd how, ten games in, the manager seemingly doesn’t know his best team and doesn’t know how to get the best out of his squad. We still look worse than we were last season. Surely, the board will expect to see some positive signs soon or they will have to take action.

Saint Benali Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Think the commentator summed it up pretty well - After we scored we changed and went defensive trying to settle for 0-1. Suicide tactics in the PL and shows a lack of understanding of the league from the manager. We were really poor today and against any team with a bit of quality in it we would have been murdered. VVD, Tadic and Hoedt were awful. Romeu looked like the only one who gave a ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whelk Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 As commentators said at end. Go one up and Brighton look useless. What do we do? Sit back and invite them on.

pimpin4rizeal Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Really do not have a clue when it comes to attacking. best it ever gets is tadic trying to put a flick down the flank so cedric can try to get a cross in. no attempts do do anything through the middle.. bertrand never seemed to overlap or combine with boufal, gabbiadini totally starved of service again..

Pamplemousse Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Thankfully, there are at least 8 teams in this league worse than us. Palace, Bournemouth, Swansea, West Ham, West Brom, Stoke, Huddersfield and Brighton. Possibly add Everton and Leicester to that but I reckon they'll improve, and maybe Newcastle, as they've had easy fixtures like us too. We'll get a top half finish but I expected a lot better.

tajjuk Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 We do not look like a team at the moment, there is no fight there and no togetherness, players blaming each other, no one really busting a gut. We went 1-0 up and then the players went into cruise mode. How the hell does Tadic stay on the pitch, Boufal wasn't great but at least he was trying to do something, all Tadic seemed to do is fall over. Gabbi looks isolated and is feeding off scraps. Forster is shot as a keeper, how the hell did that get in, he was already across and then just sort of fell over. It's a shame because the rest of his play was good, he caught well, came out for stuff, passed well under pressure, tried to get us going early but you have to save that. Cedric, Hoedt, Romeu and VVD played well, everyone else was very poor. Felt sorry for Cedric having Tadic in front of him. Oh and Redmond comes on and within minutes cuts inside and sprays a useless ball out of play then seems to blame Ward-Prowse for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ade Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 I think I actually prefer Puel to the way this manager plays football. At least we did create chances under Puel - just couldn't convert them. We used to moan about the number of chances we were missing. What did their goalkeeper have to do in that match? Apart from the free kick and follow up goal, what else was he required to do? We created absolutely nothing else? Absolutely nothing. We are so bad to watch. Insipid, uninspired, slow football. We will get battered by the big 6 home and away. There were 3 points up for grabs today, especially after we went one up. But we sat back and invited them on. This manager will mean we will be constantly looking down this season rather than up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davefizzy14 Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 Absolutely laughable some people on here. I mean we got a point against a team that just smashed West Ham 3-0. I do agree that it was frustrating that we didn't go on and win the game but it's 3 unbeaten now. I wish some people would get off Fraser's back, even Thierry Henry said that it got a small deflection on its way in which it made it harder for Fraser to reach too.

Yet the teams you say who are worse than us are only a few points behind us. How many points behind us do you think they will be when we get to jan 1st when we have played Liverpool away, City away, Chelsea away, Spurs away, Utd away and Arsenal at home?

Disco Stu Posted 29 October, 2017 Share Posted 29 October, 2017 The board are to blame for this. Excluding the fire sales over the years, the most inexcusable decision they have made is not signing any offensive minded players last summer despite our awful goal scoring record from the previous season. To come off the end of that kind of toothlessness and only sign defenders the following window is quite frankly baffling. They've brought in two dud managers it seems, which was particularly disappointing last year when had just come off a 6th placed finish and had European football to look forward to (the club has rarely been more attractive to potential new recruits), and to top it all off, we're forced to endure this infuriating, slow, indirect style of football which goes against every fibre of how football should be played. We all know the obvious flaws in the 'sell best players, replace cheap' philosophy and we all know this 'Southampton way' propaganda is BS, and yet the board seem to get away with it with regular comments on this forum even going as far as to praise Les Reed for the work he's done (!) all whilst threads are discussing what manager to try next. No point painting over mold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
