Toussaint Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Djenepo making poor runs and looks off the pace so far

Sheaf Saint Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 2 minutes ago, The Kraken said: We’ve gone off the boil. No ability to keep the ball for any extended time. Not sure I’ve seen a team look less threatening as us from corners as the few we’ve had so far. Almost like we don’t push too many forwards to protect against the counter attack. Actually the possession ratio has tilted in our favour over the last 10-15 mins, and it's that that worries me more. We never, ever win when we have more possession than the opposition.
Victor Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 2 minutes ago, Saint Billy said: We are winning but I don’t feel comfortable. Probably because we are leading, not winning. You don't win until the final whistle. Sorry, no. until 3 minutes after the final whistle and the 'big' club has been awarded a post-match penalty. 1
Saint Pete Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Would like to see Djenepo be a bit more positive when he gets it in their third. Doing a lot of turning back towards our goal so far. Still, decent-ish half I guess.
The Kraken Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 At least we made it to half time. Hopefully Ralph can settle them down a bit and get them playing. Pretty good in places but work needed.
OttawaSaint Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Not too bad for that 45, would just like to see us be a bit more aggressive in the final 3rd. Djenepo needs to get his legs moving and put Burnley back on their heels.
sammysaint93 Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Djenepo please take someone on in the second half lad
Manuel Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Djenepo a little clumsy and awkward so far.
hypochondriac Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 That was definitely better than the ladt three games. Mccarthy hasn't had an awful lot to do but we haven't had many chances down the other end either. Really hope we go on and win this.

Doing a lot of turning back towards our goal so far. Still, decent-ish half I guess. Agreed. Bertrand makes the run off him so when he cuts back he gives it back to Romeu or Vestergaard and a couple of tentative passes later we're backs to goal and a defender out of position or Vestergaard has tried to thread it through three lines of play and given it away. Just carry it up the line and try to win something. 1
qwertyell Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Shocking low quality game - fortunately for us Burnley have got a few more carthorses that we have. Going to need that second. There's no way they won't shithouse a goal from somewhere. "Soft penalty" would be my guess. Armstrong and Djenepo haven't brought their feet tonight, but as we have no alternatives on the bench, we'll just have to hope they remember how to control the ball after the break. Hard to pick anyone that's playing well. Vestergaard's going all right, to be fair.

Shame he got booted as he contributed a fair bit and has been on here for ages.

Mr Dad Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Thanks to CC for the stream link! Anyway, thank goodness Ings showed his class in the first few minutes. Lucky to get away with the penalty We were playing at a high pace so hope we can keep that up for the second half. Remember the Spurs game anyone?

ButtikonSaint Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Looks like our away form is once going to keep us in the running...not too bad a half. Let's hope we get to the end with no regrets. Max effort from the boys needed in the second half. COYS

Saint Fan CaM Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Djenepo is playing a good game in the sense he’s putting in a real shift winning some important balls...better than Redmond has shown lately. Vest is doing very well at the moment. Danny and Che looking good as a pairing. Romeu has played the ball well. Just need another goal to feel like we’re really on top, otherwise I can see my 1-1 prediction as an end result.

hypochondriac Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 I think one of the worries is that this game looks pretty even but Burnley have a ton of injuries and we have one who is an underperforming redmond.
Lighthouse Posted 26 September, 2020 Author Posted 26 September, 2020 I’m so glad Barnes is injured. It’s like playing a sexually frustrated orc when he’s on the pitch.
OttawaSaint Posted 26 September, 2020 Posted 26 September, 2020 Frig, thought that was in. Wakey wakey Saints!
