Saints 0-1 Wolves - Match Thread

[Jeremy Corbyn]

One issue we have with A Armstrong and Adams is neither or them offer an aerial threat, which makes it much easier to defend against.  Broja on at half time for me.

Romeo has gone from racehorse to donkey inside a week.

His passing radar is all over the place and putting us under unnecessary pressure atm

[cloggy saint]

Reading the comments here and the BBC MBM you wouldn't think they are watching the same game. Who to believe??

[OttawaSaint]

This is better from Saints.

[skintsaint]

Bit better last 5mins.

[Mr X]

We are so static when a ball comes into the box 

[northam soul]

Jesus wept

[skintsaint]

ROMEU!!!!!!!!!!! smashes it out the ground.....

[Mr X]

Romeu with a world class strike 🤣

What are they saying?

We've had plenty of the ball but toothless in attack. Wolves keeper not had a single save to make. At the back we’ve been ok but made a few errors giving the ball away sloppily.

That shot of his was nearer the moon than the goal.

[LiberalCommunist]

We've needed half time since the 20 minute mark. Appalling. 

WW are pretty shit aswell. Lucky.

Pretty similar to how they've described Wolves too.

[Mr X]

God we've been clueless in final third and sloppy in defence 

[OttawaSaint]

Arghhhhhhhhhh

[obelisk]

Tidy finish by Redders but easily offside.

[skintsaint]

Redmond goal! ...offside, nice finish though.

[Mr X]

Well offside sadly 

[OttawaSaint]

Fuck, Redmond actually finishes well and he’s offside. Figures...

[trousers]

Just now, Saint NL said:

No, he's not playing well. My post wasn't  indicating otherwise. 

[skintsaint]

Playing much better now! Come on nick a goal.

[OttawaSaint]

How come he can’t finish like that when he’s onside.

ugh...

You posted a gif of a knee jerk reaction, I thought 🤣 my last post of the day, glad I didn't waste it.

Diallo is a non entity

That was in reaction to you suggesting we take off one of our best players so far this season because of an iffy start to the game. I wasn't questioning that he's had a poor start today, on that we agree. #itsnotcomplicated

Get KWP outta left back, 3 times easy crosses he has fecked as no left foot.

[OttawaSaint]

Ugh oh. I think Trousers has contracted the MLG virus...

[Toussaint]

Merd 

[DT]

God, us in the final third. So dreary 

looks a bit championship  

what’s happened to walker-peters?

anyone think he’ll bring Djenepo on for some zip?

Traore to score seems the likely bet

[skintsaint]

lol @ that last free kick. Wasters.

This no point in him trying to play in. An unnatural position

Very true, could have been a different story with Peraud crossing 

[OttawaSaint]

4d chess from Ralph. If we don’t score before half time then we can’t lose to Wolves despite leading at halftime... *taps head*

[Baird of the land]

Really poor first half display. Seem really slow and ponderous so far. Need a massive improvement in the 2nd half.

[Sunglasses Ron]

Well I guess the positive is 2 1/2 PL games without conceding now. Christ knows when we last managed that!

[Dr Who?]

Footballers are not the brightest are they! Let’s use that well worked free kick from the training ground when we are already well over the 1 minute stoppage time. Rather than humping it into the box and maybe nicking a goal 🙄

Don't speak too soon 😱

[obelisk]

Reminds me of one of those end od season games where a point suits both sides.

Saints attack looking bereft of ideas.

You try explaining a misunderstanding the 'mutual exclusivity' concept without going into full blown MLG mode...

Poor first half, we are just too slow when we get the ball forward, Wolves having plenty of time to get their shape back. 

We'll struggle with their pace once Traore comes on. 

[washsaint]

Utter garbage that was.  Complete rubbish - absolutely no attacking intent and we may as well be playing with 10 with Moi out there (who is once again showing how slow of thought and pace he is).  Ralph being oh so clever playing WP at LB is not working....wtf has Perraud done wrong not to start as a LB playing at LB?

Take Moi off, move Tino up and bring on Perraud.  Surely Broja and Tella need to come on after about 60 minutes too.

This is pitiful to watch.

I never said I expected us to extend it any further 😃 

[OttawaSaint]

I think many are on here are thinking the same thing. We need to be much better and hopefully score before they roll the dice on Traore. Could be a nervous last 15 minutes.

[Disco Stu]

We have no cutting edge.

[sydney_saint]

Don't think it has been quite as bad as some are making out. Sure, we are nowhere near our best, but we have still been the better side. Need to see more movement and quality from the forward four, especially El, Redmond and Che. El is working hard, but I am still very unconvinced he has progressed from the player that we shipped on loan. Armstrong movement is good, but quality isn't there. 

Feel a bit for KWP. He's not a left back. He was one of our top performers last season and now he has been hung out to dry on the left.

[Patrick Bateman]

Just need a decent striker on the pitch. No end product. 

[Ohio Saint]

This game must be what erectile dysfuntion feels like.

True! Haha let's hope we can improve on first half! surely can't be any worse

Maybe KWP to RB, Perrauld on and push Livramento forward for either Redmond or Elyounoussi. And Broja fo.r Adams
