Saints 2-2 Leicester - Match Thread

[Sheaf Saint]

That was never a foul.

[Donatello]

Have no idea how Broja isn't ahead of both Adams and Armstrong in the pecking order. 

[trousers]

Hate to say it but this game only goes one way... Last minute counterattack with a Vardy goal...

Ndidi lucky there, he should have still been carded earlier for dangerous play.

[SNSUN]

Can we nick this? Draw isn't terrible. Lose now and I'll be pissed off. Especially with a winnable game against Brighton coming up we could really rise up the table or at least have a bit of breathing space to the bottom 3.

 

Squeaky bum time.

[Saint_clark]

Bednarek scoring first, inevitable that Vardy nicks a 3-2 win for Leicester.

[obelisk]

What a waste of a free kick.

I'd take a point right now. Another 2nd half capitulation.

To be fair, this is fair from a 2nd half capitulation.

Happy with the draw here, which is about fair.

[Baird of the land]

Surely ndidi should have been booked for kicking Romeu in the stomach regardless of whether the flag was up.

[trousers]

Lyanco on for Bednarek.

Should f**king win it to make up for the Norwich result.

 

[Warriorsaint]

Sorry, seen enough of Armstrong. Just doesn’t have it. I don’t usually dismiss our players but he isn’t going to do it for us I reckon. Hope Im proved wrong.

[Mr X]

Lyanco

Don't mind trying something different, but adjusting the angle to play the ball in for....Redmond? Salisu or bednarek should be peeling wide in those situations to head it back across goal.

[adrian lord]

Petering out, this game.

[obelisk]

Only one team look like winning this game.

[Saint_clark]

Shit pass Redmond.

[Saint_clark]

Come on, one more funky set piece routine to ruin their zonal marking...

[obelisk]

Saints poor execution of good positions in the attacking third is one thing that is consistent.

[Lee On Solent Saint]

Second yellow there

[trousers]

Draw would be fair result here 

[Saint_clark]

WHY DID BROJA TURN BACK?????? 

[Saints foreva]

Why the fuck hasn't Broja shot there. 

[trousers]

Why the f*** didn't broja turn and fire that first time?

[trousers]

McCarthy saves again 

[Saint_clark]

Mccarthy saves and palms it back into the middle of the goal yet again.

[obelisk]

Why didn't Broja hit it?

[OttawaSaint]

Perfect ball for Broja to just shoot in and he took an extra touch. Uggghhh

McCarthy makes a pig's ear of it again. Just lucky there was nobody waiting to pounce this time.

[Saint_clark]

Ralph does seem to love coaching players into turning back towards their own goal.

[OttawaSaint]

Elynaoussi has shown again why he'll never really be a success in this league. Poor quality passing/crossing. Really poor.

thought he has looked quite bright though.

[OttawaSaint]

Decent point but an opportunity missed to beat that fucking shower of bastards.

[Saint_clark]

Why do we not have ballboys anymore? We wasted over 30 seconds there waiting for KWP to go and collect the ball.

[Mr X]

A point, should have been three 

[trousers]

Full time. Fair result

Another draw that feels like a loss.

We all would have taken that at the start of the game but disappointing really.

No end product......always looks lost when he has to make a decision.

He shows flashes but his final ball is often passed a fraction too late and thus closed down easily.

[Billy the Kidd]

Yep, happy with that would have taken a draw at kick off

[CB Fry]

Fair result. Decent result.

[moonraker]

Leicester really are an unpleasant bunch.

Why should it? We didn't play well enough to deserve a win IMO. Leicester are a decent side who we have no divine right to be beating.

Did something happen after full time?

[Saints foreva]

Just another example of how poorly coached we are. Another two points to add to the points dropped from a winning position tally under Ralph.

So should we be, all this nicey nicey loser mentality is hopeless 

[JustinSFC]

If Redmond could stop putting his laces through 5 yard passes, giving the recipient no fuckin chance to control it, that would be magnificent.
