Sheffield Utd 0-2 Saints - Match Thread

[obelisk]

That's a couple of attacking free kicks wasted already.

[Mr X]

We still look very nervy at the moment... Understandable 

[nta786]

Has Tella been fouled 3 times now in that part of the field

[Saint Fan CaM]

Looking toothless and slow in attack as usual. We’ll end up gifting at least a point to SU unless we find a way to move the ball much quicker. Tells is looking a right handful though.

[Saints foreva]

Another injury 

[Viking Saint]

Need to make these freekick count... KWP looks so confident on the ball

[obelisk]

Ings injured then.

[LGTL]

Another one bites the dust. For fuck sake. 

[Chapel End]

FFS another fucking injury 

Do we ever get any luck

[Lighthouse]

Two months ago, that would have really annoyed me.

[Monk]

Hmmmm.. he just doesn't fancy it. CBA for the City drubbing.

[nta786]

Ings done for then- Adams on.

[Mr X]

Ings body language not good

We are playing the usual way. Backward and sideways and slow. No threat at all. Even wasted 3 decent free kicks. Need to find some confidence.. 

[Saint_clark]

Drop his contract offer by £10k a week. He won't get a big move after this season's injuries. 

[trousers]

F**k off injuries FFS

[LGTL]

Absolutely nothing in that either, totally innocuous. They’re usually bad ones. 

[Noodles34]

This season is going to shit 

Sooner it’s over the better

Not to mention his lack of form too.

[Saint_clark]

Tella looks good to me. Certainly more positive than Redmond.

Diallo looks seriously rusty at the moment.

As in regarding the injury? 
going to be out for a while 

[Saint_clark]

How is that a foul but not the charge on Bednarek?

This in spades 

[Monk]

Wasn't bothered by the Ings injury but then I remember the FA Cup game. 🙄

[Mr X]

We haven't got going at all so far 

[SNSUN]

We should have a sweepstake on which player will get injured each game. Crazy. For a man already in no form, you could probably say his Euros campaign seems a distant dream away now.

 

Adams then? Please not Redmond. Yes Che against his former club. I like Che. The Ormerod of the current day. 😜

Ralph has a ready made excuse then if we come away with nothing. 
we still look utter shite. 
 

[Dorchester Saint]

SWF: “Ings obviously wants out, his attitude stinks, drop him etc

 

Also SWF: FFS Ings is injured, we’re fucked etc 

[skintsaint]

why we do weak against long balls.

[whelk]

FFS get Redmond on

So SWF is all one person then?

[bpsaint]

What’s that now his third injury of this season? Can’t see that big money move happening with that kind of record...

[BotleySaint]

Playing into their hands so far. Not tested their weakened backline at all.

Dont forget the bollocks in the post above yours

Yep and it also completely kills our pressing game.

you can’t press the ball in the air so opposition often play route 1 which we then can’t always deal with

Yes the injury he  possibly knows that's an out for rest of season one 

[skintsaint]

let off there from a shit pass from McGoldrick

In all honesty I don't think our chances of winning are diminished at all by having him off the pitch, he hasn't looked anywhere near the same player as last season.

[Norm]

Exactly as I expected, Utd fiercely fighting for everything! I would take a point now.

[Wrensup]

Lots of pretty patterns from us. But that is all.

A few weeks, wasn’t his knees, looked like groin area to me. Hasn’t been on it since agent was in his ear but it’s backfiring as can’t see City wanting him and Kane seems staying at Spurs. 
 

Looks like 0-0 to me unless we give a stupid one away or Armstrong/Stuart tee one up from range that do a bit in the air to beat Ramsdale. We’ve got 2 lively wide players but Che doesn’t tend to anticipate in the box.

[Saint_clark]

I will never, ever understand players trying to go round the opposition when going backwards. Just turn and run the other way ffs.

[Millbrook Saint]

Ings ain't injured, his agent has got in his ear and told him not to risk himself, doubt we'll see him in a saints shirt again

[Saint_clark]

Brilliant passing and moving from Sheffield United.

[whelk]

Ducking  annoys me how our forwards don’t have guile to stay onside.

id be embarrassed to be offside like Adams was then if I was playing Sunday league

Huh? So he can feign injury for the next few months?

[Mr X]

How bad are we? Sheffield United showing they are more up for it 

[BotleySaint]

Can't see us scoring today. We can't even string a few passes together. Sheffield Utd getting closer.

[skintsaint]

Forster still wank with crosses.
