5string Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 JWP over-hitting everything. Bit over-eager? Control, mate, control!
Saint_clark Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Tadic stopped then appealing for the free-kick when he could have been beyond the defender... Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Saint_clark Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Sick of watching Redmond wasting good opportunities now. Boufal would have taken that past him. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk
mrfahaji Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 That’s the sort of save we’ve been used to Forster not making, well done Fraser! Redmond nearly gives away a penalty with a Boufal-esque lunge.
DT Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Redmond slows it down again. Get Boufal on for him please. The most frustrating player ever Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
mrfahaji Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Stop cutting inside Nathan, you d1ck! And then, give to Bertrand, but no, passes back... ARGH!
Viking Saint Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Yet SkySports reports this Intriguing match-ups all over the park and Xhaka has certainly thrown himself around this afternoon, as has Redmond, who is looking very lively.
5string Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Trying to utilise Redmond's pace is only partially successful because he keeps losing the ball at the crucial moment.
5string Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Wasn't that handball, and didn't it prevent a Saints attack? Hmm, ok, had his back turned, no chance of it being deliberate.

The Arsenal falling down display team has been practising. Ok, HT 1-0. Good so far. Edited 10 December, 2017 by 5string got the scoreline wrong, like a wally.

Saint_Ash Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Great first half from saints. Some great football when we hsve possession, Austin looking dangerous, Forster with a cracking save. Hopefully we take the secend half to arse and not sit back.
Batman Posted 10 December, 2017 Author Posted 10 December, 2017 great game so far. they are obviously on top as expected.... Austin very good I think romeu and Hoj have been brilliant so far good save from Forster
striker Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Good half. Could've been 2-0 if not for that nice save on Austin, also could have been 1-1, so we'll take it. Hojberg and Austin look really good in my opinion, Tadic has had his moments, and Redmond looks really bad. Might want to change from the more attacking 3-4-3 into a defensive formation in the 2nd half.

trousers Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Great first half from Saints. Only gripe is the usual dead-end football from JWP and Redmond when they receive the ball out wide in advance positions. DT - are you still angry about the starting line up?

Chris27687 Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Stephens has looked really good. Redmond has been so wasteful - he's clearly so low on confidence. Gabby/Long can come on in the second half and really capitalise on this back line. Boufal for redmond asap
ashnats Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Redmond playing very well, running hard, back to England form if he can add an end product. Brilliant game so far, deffo not boring!
Saints foreva Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Bertrand being left against two Arsenal players quite often. Can't keep giving them that freedom.
austsaint Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Great first 15 minutes with Tadic giving Austin two great opportunities. If the Bertrand - Boufal combination had been maintained we could be further ahead. One goal lead doesn't look enough; if Pellegrino doesn't want to bring in Boufal , he should Have Lemina on at H/T and JWP off. PEH has been magnificent; Romeu, Bertrand and CBs sound. We have looked wide open on the right side with Stephens and Ward-Prowse giving Sanchez and co too much space.
St Marco Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 A decent half from us. Forster, Hoj, Romeu and Austin have been excellent. Redmond and jwp not so good. I'd take prowse off as he is an accident waiting to happen right now.
striker Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Just said on TV that Austin has 8 goals in his last 11 PL starts
qwertyell Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 1-0 h/t. Not sure how we're ahead, to be honest. We look shaky in defence and horrible in possession - don't think this line up is working. Ward-Prowse is again a passenger, Redmond is just a terrible player, Romeu is getting bypassed too easily in transition when we (inevitably) lose possession after three passes. Great finish by Austin, a quality save low down from Forster, and Hojbjerg has been excellent. I think a reshuffle at the break is in order, though. Can't believe Lemina isn't on the pitch.

washsaint Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Why all the hatred for JWP? He has had a pretty darn good 1st half....tracked back, lovely control and getting stuck in. Redmond, on the other hand, has been truly awful and cannot seem to control, pass or use his head (very lucky not to give a penalty away). Good 1st half and nice to see Saints playing as an attacking unit. Last 3.5 games the manager has shown something he didn't previously and maybe he will be OK. In which case there will be massive humble pie from moi!!!!!!!
del boy Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Redmond playing very well, running hard, back to England form if he can add an end product. Brilliant game so far, deffo not boring! I'm not sure you're on the official Saints Web bandwagon there
Sheaf Saint Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 JWP not having the best game but he's probably worth keeping on just for his dead ball delivery. Redmond, on the other hand, has contrived to completely waste every chance to break forward he has been given, often under no pressure as well. Quite what he does in training to get picked ahead of Boufal I don't know. He's been shockingly bad this season.
5string Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Sure you're watching the right game? Haha whoops, dunno what happened there! 1-0 of course. Alright, so play like it's 0-0 now! Or something
Leo_ARG Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 PEH was the best player on the pitch for me. Romeu is a rock again, he always starts the season slow and gets better around this time of the year. Is it too early to say Forster is back? No way he would have saved that a couple months ago.
Saint_clark Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Who was Redmond trying to moan at there after he dithered on the ball and gave it away? No one else is at fault there ffs. Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk

Forster has been much better for about 3-4 games now. No coincidence that we are picking up points as well.

striker Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Need another goal. Can't just do this for another 38 minutes
5string Posted 10 December, 2017 Posted 10 December, 2017 Ok, Saints, sit back like this and you WILL concede. Decent breakaway effort, but then close to conceding in return. Yikes!
