St.JonB Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 The defence looks terrible. Three at the back but no one is close enough to an attacker.
shurlock Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Look fractionally offside but Yoshida not strong enough and both Vest and Bednarek not alert enough to close the runners.
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Equaliser. Cut open too easily. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

beatlesaint Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Christ same old **** poor defending, dreadful at the back
Viking Saint Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Middle of defence all over the place. Look alright going forwards.
Cabbage_Face Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 A cb solves **** all when you got Hoj and Jwp in front of it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Useful Idiot Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 These centre backs are obviously good enough to get us a mid-table finish. Without Romeu our midfield looks great, too.
nta786 Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 not watching the game but saw their goal from the 56 second clip on Twitter lost the ball in the middle left us very vulnerable defence all over the place (especially Vestegaard I thought) but to be honest, i don't mind. i actually hope we are threatened more so we aren't lulled into a false sense of security! then we can iron out those deficiencies come the Burnley game! however, also praise to Redmond and Adams for leading the press for our goal.
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Ings virtually invisible.Was just going to say exactly that. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
van Hanegem Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 The Feyenoord youngsters up front are making an effort but as usually the defense is crap. Now they say Hoedt might be the right one for Feyenoord...
S-Clarke Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Ings looks like he's blowing out of his arse already.
verlaine1979 Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Not sure I've heard Ings name mentioned in the commentary at all.
Convict Colony Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 This is a game of **** defences, pressing has been good though
Charlie Wayman Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 What was that supposed to be? 45 mins and not a decent move of more than two passes from Saints. Feyenoord out-passed us at will and only rearguard heroics mainly from Bednarek is saving us from a hiding. Where is our midfield? Get Romeu out there on the next plane.
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 With Adams and Redmond looking dangerous as a front two, Ings is almost redundant. Shame Djenepo isn't on the bench as a replacement. If Romeu were fit, and if this was a real game, I'd be tempted to take Ings off, push JWP forward to #10 and put Romeu alongside Hojbjerg. Maybe Reed or Smallbone could do the job too. We certainly need more protector for the back three - they're getting cut open by through balls all the time. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 10 subs for Saints. Only Vestergaard still on. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Boufal gets into promising position on edge of the area. Doesn't look fir a pass. Loses ball. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
shurlock Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Obafemi looking bright - impressed with his linkup play, not just his raw power and pace.
niceandfriendly Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Hoedt with some seriously silky defending... what did I just witness?
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Armstrong working hard too. And Cedric. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Saint Matty 76 Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Shame we have two really good keepers rather than two competent CBs.
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 McCarthy has made a good save too. And another one. No evidence yet that Boufal has learned his to look fir a pass. Been in good positions and wasted them. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Sims and Forster the only ones not yet on the pitch. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
van Hanegem Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Saint’s biggest problem isn’t defending, it’s the lack of creativity (again). Looks like it’s going to be another boring season.

niceandfriendly Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 That's bizarre. We were very creative in the first half. Perhaps on two occasions we looked busy going forward, and that's being generous. 2nd half we've had nothing at all.
John Boy Saint Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Nice move for Liam Kelly Reading to Holland - his Mum works for Mrs JBS
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 V disjointed second half due to our second string being on and all of the subs. Boufal has had the ball about twice....due to our midfield being over run. Stand out player... If you can judge anyone at all is Reed. Absolutely everywhereArmstrong for me. Vestergaard good too.

trousers Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Harrison Reed looked good although looks like he's picked up an injury
Lallana's Left Peg Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Second half was awful. Know its only pre-season and different combinations are being tried out but every time I see the 4-2-2-2 it looks like we have neither the personnel or maturity to play it and most teams would find it too easy to walk through the middle of us and exploit a defence which struggles unless it has three at the back in the middle. Nice to see us win games though.
Shroppie Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Can't believe I'm saying this, but Hoedt was solid. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
saint77 Posted 28 July, 2019 Posted 28 July, 2019 Armstrong for me. Vestergaard good too. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Hoedt for me
