Chez Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 Brilliant second half display. Dominated for long spells and were easily the better side in that half. So nervous at the end that we would be robbed. Slightly disappointed we didn't win. Romeu was immense, as were a lot of players. KWP is playing out of his skin. Honestly, with Broja up front, i can see us scoring against anyone. He is the best striker in the league right now. Scary what he brings to our game. Che alongside him creates a really powerful forward line. We're not perfect, but we are a million miles better than earlier in the season. Love it. Can't wait to watch us again. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jemanson Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 Another brilliant performance. The team is playing like every game is a cup final and the composure and skill levels when playing in tight spaces is the best I've seen from a Saints team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OttawaSaint Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 (edited) Let's have some love for Che Adams. Totally written off on here by some but he's got his head down and worked hard. Would have been easy for him to have had a strop when AA and even Redmond were picked ahead of him at the start of the season. His work rate and hold up play are excellent and he's improved his finishing. Great player! Edited 12 February, 2022 by OttawaSaint 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Grandad Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 It is a refreshing change when you come away from Old Trafford slightly disappointed with a draw. A bit more composure from Broja and we might have won there. Stephens did well when he came on and I never thought I’d say that. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markyruk Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 What I like is that we’re now a nasty team to play against. Too often in the past we’ve been bullied by teams, now we have a bit of a spiteful side to our game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwertyell Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 1 hour ago, qwertyell said: Not quite at it today - the sharpness of touch and movement from midweek isn't there. Very open at the back - feels like United could run away with the game if they were more ruthless. But it's only 1-0 and we've cobbled together some chances ourselves. Wouldn't count out a cheeky point. Not betting the house on it, though. Cheeky. Great effort to get through this run of fixtures (City, Spurs, United) unbeaten and bank 5 points. Could've nicked it too. That's City, United, Spurs and West Ham played twice this season without defeat. Let's start putting the lesser teams to the sword now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevdoh Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 Stephens is decent 95% of the time it's the odd brain fart that lets him down. Love how he takes no bs off the so called bigger players. It's what you need sometimes.

OttawaSaint Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 Makes me so happy to see Saints players totally bought into the system. Great team spirit and togetherness. Several players absolutely running their guts out at 90+5 to preserve the result. Contrast that with Utd. Full of World Cup winners, Euro winners, finalists from both competitions too. What do you do with a team of stars with no team spirit, not willing to bust a gut for each other? A bunch of entitled whinging twats. Must be a nightmare to coach them (bank balance aside). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWar Posted 12 February, 2022 Share Posted 12 February, 2022 Europe? We have already played united, city, and spurs twice. Is it too late to make a run at it? Also, a lot of talk about our fullbacks and strikers but JWP Romeu might be top 5 best midfields in the league. The list of top midfields they have dominated is growing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
