SW5 SAINT Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 2 minutes ago, SKD said: Given the side we put out, 5-2 isn’t a bad result for us (still 10 minutes to go). ultimately, if we don’t win on Saturday it’ll be for nothing. But I think given the injuries we’ve had, the right decision. We’re not going to win on Saturday or lose either for that matter...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerspoon Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 We’ve been a much better side since Diallo came on, and I think Ralph was right to rest key players for either the first half or second half of the game.

nta786 Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 I’m upset at losing of course but we have to think bigger picture. I’m expecting nothing less than a win against Brighton to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baird of the land Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Decent performance. Too many square pegs in round holes though, which cost us chance to really push for a shock result. Stephens and salisu badly shown up out of position in 2nd half. Good to see Adams looking confident in front of goal,Tella and diallo looked bright from the bench. Hopefully resting key players will pay off in big game at the weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorchester Saint Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Didn’t get humiliated, made a game of it , Adams in the goals and we rested some of our better players. Not too shabby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinSFC Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 We were exponentially better when Stephens got subbed for Diallo, looked a lot more solid. Tella is a talent. Wasn't he the player Barcelona were rumoured to want from our academy a few years back? He looks like he could be something. Early doors I thought this was going to be a pegging, but we actually held our own in the 2nd half. We'll beat Brighton. imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Consolation: Only the 3rd side to score 2 against City in the league this season. If we beat Brighton then I'll be happy with 3 points from these two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble with this resting policy is it does put an awful lot of pressure on the next one. But hey. Positives - Vestergard, JWP, Diallo, and Redmond in places. Amazingly. Bad - McCarthy, Salisu, Djenepo, Bertrand. We so need KWP and Diallo in the side. And Forster back at the weekend please. That final ten to fifteen minutes is certainly something to build on though. So not all bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obelisk Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Sorry but I just can't find any positives in a 5-2 defeat. Too many mistakes in defence and poor in the final third again. Ok, pretty passing triangles in midfield but they too often peter out on the edge of the penalty area. Now need to get something from the game on Sunday.

Whitey Grandad Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Jellyfish defending cost us tonight. And too many players out of position. No cohesion in the midfield and back line. Stephens watched the game go past him bin both directions. Cut out the silly mistakes, put Forster in goal and we might have got something out of that game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiberalCommunist Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Really encouraging start, till they scored. But glad to come through that without any issues for the Brighton game. Moussa wouldn't have started anyway. Glad to see we can shift 3 or four from the starting line up. I reckon we are going to be well fired up. City are just different class, no shame in losing to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archers Road Stand Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 The way we concede goals for fun is a joke. All 5 of those goals were piss poor to concede but hey, at least it wasn't 9.

moonraker Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Losing is always disappointing, but what did people actually expect when playing the best team in the league. A makeshift side with players playing out of position, and notable injuries. Played well at times but made some schoolboy errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
