skintsaint Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Decent half, need to find the net before we get nervy/tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Marco Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 By far the better side so far. Thought Hoj, Redmond and Vester were excellent. JWP needs to get the ball forwards rather than look for a safe pass all the time. Even Bednerak has been more effective attacking wise than him so far.

Manuel Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 JWP needs to learn how to play on the turn. He'll hit it backwards to a player he can see even if there's open space for him to turn into. It's a profound weakness for a central midfielder to lack awareness of the space around him. Whereas Romeu consistently looks to play forward.

Sheaf Saint Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Only caught the last 20 mins but looks like we are the ones creating the best chances. Has McCarthy even been tested yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Saint Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Good performance so far, very solid, could just do with a bit of luck. Vestergaard outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obelisk Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Good effort by Saints so far and unlucky not to be in the lead really. Everton look to have more quality but aren't creating too much. Some of our fannying around on the ball worries me a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Sorry to say Valerie seems a weakness on the right and is very inconsistent going forward. Hopefully a better second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austsaint Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Could be/Should be 2 up. Midfield of Hoj and Romeu excellent - Redmond outstanding with Ings chipping in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgerx16 Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Not sure that McCarthy playing the ball short to Vestergaard is doing us favours - Vest likes to play with the ball at his feet, which is fine at the halfway line, but he seems to dally for a second too long when 6 yards outside our area.

qwertyell Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Played pretty well in that first half, especially in the first 20 minutes. I fear we'll be made to pay for not scoring when we were on top - we definitely faded as the half wore on. Targett going off has killed our width. Valery is the only outlet, and I've not seen him deliver a cross yet in his fledgling career that wasn't utterly useless. I'd probably take a point from here - there's no way we don't have a catastrophically sloppy defensive foul up in our near future.

shurlock Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Much the better side but our play is deceptive -while we’ve created chances by capitalising on their errors and breaking quickly, we’ve lacked any real control and our buildup play has been scrappy.

NewYorkSaint Posted 19 January, 2019 Share Posted 19 January, 2019 Hoj and Romeu on their day are just awesome. They've won the ball so many times, and both have put in killer passes to launch attacks. Ings + Redmond posing genuine and exciting threat. And our back three getting stronger all the time. Believe!

They haven't really had a shot have they? Yes. The object of the game isn't to hit the post or cause the keeper to make saves. It's to score goals. If team a scores one goal from one shot and wins 1-0, while team b have 20 shots, hit the post 6 times and force a dozen saves, team a are the better team. Saying you deserve to win a football match because you've hit the post the most times is like claiming you deserve to win at Monopoly because you've rolled the most doubles.

No it means the team that had 1 shot won by luck. It doesn't mean they were the better team. But your point revolves around the fact that team that hits the post loads and makes the keeper keep making saves won't score. Which as we have now scored shows we are the better side playing the better football and are deservedly winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
