Burnley 2-0 Saints - Match Thread

Damn! Thought that was in!

[trousers]

Do we know what's happened to Stuart Armstrong? He's gone from being one of our most influential players to being largely anonymous the last few games.

Watch him make changes now that the game is over.

Wish his time was over.

Ah, no goal. As you were lads.

[Baird of the land]

Marginally better actually having a 2 forward player. Still no clue why we are playing 5 at the 5 back while 2 down away to burnley.

[femalesaint]

Aaron Lennon? 🤣🤣🤣

[Saint_clark]

That's ridiculous. Superb ball and strike from Redmond and Adams, then incredible reflex save.

[nta786]

Adams that is like the 3rd time in 4 games where he doesn’t score from a good cross to him in the box. FFS

[Saint86]

Che Adams should be starting over broja as well.

[Saint Matty 76]

Now we’ve got Che’s sitter out the way maybe he can grab a goal.

[The Cat]

Redmond done more in 10 seconds than Armstrong or Moi did in 65 minutes.

Handball all day, not sure about offside

It would have stood if it wasn’t offside. VAR can only disallow if it hits the goal scorers hand 

[harvey]

Pleased Ely has gone off, he's a 'nothing' player.

[trousers]

Adams in shooting straight at keeper shocker...

[Saints foreva]

Adams is so bad infront of goal. Awful finish.

REDMOND ON!!!!!

We're saved!!!!!

Just did more there than we've done in near 70 minutes

Don't laugh, he'll probably score.

[sydney_saint]

Adams has mastered nailing the ball straight at the keeper. He would have three times the amount of goals if he could move it just a yard or two wider!

[Sheaf Saint]

Adams immediately improves our attack.

[obelisk]

The way that opponents are able to stroll through Saints midfield is another worrying feature.

When he's full of running he's an asset to us. But today he seemed to be holding back. Some odd tactics maybe. Or just tired.

He struck it fine just straight at the keeper 

[Baird of the land]

One of those ones where you want adams to have some composure rather than lashing the ball.

They all have apart from Forster. Yet apparently he improves players.

Only one person to blame for that

With his Championship standard finishing.

Too slow.

[nta786]

Right JWP position… come on lad

[Jimmy_D]

JWP territory…

[Saint_clark]

JWP hasnt scored from this side of the goal yet has he?

[Saint86]

Why have we actually improved this much since redmond came on? Is it because Adams is here as well and is actually a CF unlike broja? Or has redmond hugely improved our attack?

Did well to even connect with it I thought.

Who was to 'blame' for the players playing well during our December to March purple patch?

[adrian lord]

Adams….

[obelisk]

Adams misses his chance again.

True

[Saint Matty 76]

Haha I love Che as an all round player but how he is a striker? Like fucking hell.

[nta786]

CHE ADAMS WHY DID YOU NOT SHOOT EARLIER

[Saint_clark]

That's worse than anything else he's missed ever.

[OttawaSaint]

Another sitter, just shoot Adams, FFS!

[Sarisbury Saint]

Why leave it so late though.

[trousers]

FFS Adams... Shoot first time

[AlexLaw76]

What was that???

[The Cat]

If I was Redmond I'd sack off passing to Adams. That's twice he's put it on a plate for him and he's not scored.

[Saint_clark]

How many times is the ref going to stop the the game when we have the ball in their box and then give them the ball instead?

[Jimmy_D]

Cheats.

[nta786]

Burnley using the dark arts here

 

Hold your head every time we are on the attack

[BotleySaint]

Just now, Sarisbury Saint said:

Or why not play two up top and not three at the back! 

[Saint_clark]

For fuck sake how did they get the ball again???? 

[davefoggy]

we are getting smashed by a team that will be relegated. absolutely pathetic. I'd sack Ralph in the dressing room and let him make his own way home. utterly pathetic performance. 

[Saints foreva]

Strikers like Che Adams are the reason why TWAR bangs on about second strikers actually being a position these days. Diabolical infront of goal. 

[nta786]

They should implement a rule where everytime a player goes down due to a head injury they miss the next 5 minutes, can’t be that bad if said players get up in 20 seconds.
