obelisk Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Saints worthy of more than one goal but need to be more clinical in the attacking third. I don't think one goal will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Smith called it straight away with a growl - the centre forward union still there. Scharr got away with one. Good first half but gutted at Theo miss, certain it was going in. Theo lively, Djenepo very tidy, Stephens doing OK out of position, KWP very good game and Adams has the measure of their CBs. Armstrong and JWP our best players.

Kingsland Codger Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Djenepo is showing a great reluctance to take on his man and get to the bye-Line.

badgerx16 Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Stephens' lack of a left foot ( other than for standing on ) means we are very right side biased in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird of the land Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Good performance. Lead feels a bit insecure though. Left side an obvious weakness, djenepo seems a bit cautious at times, wonder if it’s under instruction with the makeshift leftback. real shame Walcott couldn’t bury that chance to make it 2 nil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallBoy Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Doing really well considering we are playing without a left hand side. Would rather Djenepo going for it and Stephens backing up. At present Djenepo plays backwards too often and Stephens just does not have the balance to do anything with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holbury Saint Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Stephens is an accident waiting to happen. We really should play someone else left back 2nd half. He looks so uncomfortable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwertyell Posted 6 November, 2020 Share Posted 6 November, 2020 Strange performance. Quite subdued and negative - yet we've made some decent chances. Hope the team are just pacing themselves and they'll be a bit more urgent in the second half. Absolutely not comfortable at 1-0. Adams looks confident and bullish, Walcott has been decent but missed a great opportunity. Djenepo and Stephens down the left has no attacking threat. Some nice touches from Djenepo, but he doesn't want to drive forward. Need the second. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
