stknowle Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 Saw both Jekyll and Hyde Saints today. Decent draw in the end against a team I think we are very evenly matched with.

Vancouver Saint Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 2-0 down, Livramento with a serious injury (hope not, but looks like it) - how many of us wouldn't have taken a 2-2 draw?! Tella instrumental in getting us back into the game - played really well and showed what a bit of pace can do for us up front. JWP obviously a great game - and you could see the step-up in his game after he'd scored. We were much the better team second half and totally dominated until the last 10 minutes. Wake-up reminder for anyone deluded enough to think we should give 'calamity' Foster a new contract. Redmond didn't really take his opportunity to claim his place. Salisu had a mare but recovered a bit second half. Would have rather seen AA instead of Long starting. Proper left-right backs in Perraud and KWP helped. Just relieved we didn't lose to a crappy last second, deflected jammy goal! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca155 Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 It's easy to criticise but a draw is a good result against a side who are well drilled, and have caused plenty of other sides problems. However Saints were improved after the enforced change of Tino (I hope he's ok). That begs a legitimate question on Ralph's selections this year. The fact remains that Saints look spineless (or headless to be more accurate) at the back and toothless up front. The summer works are obvious. As often said the League table doesn't lie and Saints are probably in the right place. There have been good games .... I'm sure I remember a few😲, but the way their form can drop off a cliff is alarming. How much longer can Saints survive like this? With Utd needing to replace half their team in the summer, odds are that JWP will be off. He deserves that move, so no problem as far as I am concerned but that will leave a big hole. So all in all, good result today. Feels a hell of a lot better than Thursday but I can't help feeling that it asks more questions than it answers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 (edited) Just terrible defending today, which gave us a mountain to climb. We didn't play as bad as at Burnley, but defensively it was a calamity in that first half. Salisu was a mess in the first half, as bad as he's ever been. He needs to sort his shit out. The goal just before half time dragged us back in and totally changed the complexion of the second half. For a good 80% of that 2nd half it was just us, but my main criticism is apart from that JWP goal we didn't trouble Sanchez at all. No real clear cut chances. The only number 10 who really showed up was Tella, he provided somewhat of a threat, but other than that we had zilch. The result doesn't really mean much if the injury to Tino is bad though. The club and Ralph seem resigned to this being a long-term injury, obviously too early to be sure but I'd be surprised if we see him again in 2022. I hate seeing talented players careers curtailed by such cruel injuries. Everything crossed for some not-so-bad news this week. That's all I care about right now.

Diabolus Ex Machina Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 Random fact of the day - that brace for Ward-Prowse is the first time a Saint had scored twice in the same game in the league this season. We're certainly a team of ups and downs under Ralph and we seemed to get that throughout a single game today. I'm waiting until the end of the season to make any firm conclusions about how our season has gone - still 12 points up for grabs and a lot of teams in the middle/middle-bottom range of the league that are much of a muchness this season so positions will fluctuate a lot between now and the end of the season. We're comfortably staying up so job done really but it's not unfair to question if progress is really being made, though to be honest I believe any real progress will be down to recruitment more than any other factor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you think 4-5-1 at home to Watford and at Burnley is acceptable to you? Was hanging Smallbone out to dry ok? Our squad needs improving no doubt but we have a decent 14 and not utilised properly.

woodsaint1 Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 If this stuttering finish to the season opens Dragan's eyes to how much investment this squad needs, then I'll take that. We need a statement of intent from him. I'm not asking that we start spending 30m+ on players, but that we address the areas which we've lacking for a number of years - GK, CB, DM, AM and CF. That will easily require upwards of 60m in this day and age. Hopefully we can move a few on to supplement this spending 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfc4prem Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 I've always pondered about Bednarek. When we signed him, was he viewed as back up? What did we pay again for him, £5m? I wonder if we ever considered him to be a first choice centre back when we bought him... Salisu is still learning the ropes. He is very young and clearly has talent, but is prone to errors and nervous performances. I'm not worried about him, I think he has bags of potential. I think we need more potency up top. One thing I feel we really miss is someone that can make runs in and around the pocket between the striker and midfield. Currently we look very pedestrian, relying on runs from our fullbacks. When they're cancelled out by the opposition having rigid positioning, it leaves us looking inept and toothless. I do wonder how we can go about fixing this. I do feel sorry for Arma.

Brian Clough alluded to it in the 60's so this whole thing about it being a modern mark on the game is non-sense. I know that you didn't say or even imply that but that seems to be the consensus. The fact is, football is a business, club's are franchises, players are employees and fans are customers. That's just the way it is and in many ways, the way it should be.

Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 24 April, 2022 Share Posted 24 April, 2022 Enjoyed that. A great away day and I thought our support was decent. I'll take it for what it is, a nice comeback after a mixed first half through 2 excellent JWP strikes. We still appear chaotic in the centre of defence at times and rectifying this in the summer is a must. As is a consistent striking option if we can find one. Can't always rely on JWP to pull free kicks out of the bag for goals but they are great when they happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like an ankle that rolled when the slow motion replay was shown. Surely torn ankle ligaments or even a fracture would be a better outcome than an ACL! Those two superb strikes from Ward-Prowse and his midfield partnership with Romeu certainly saved our blushes today. Midfield was the only area of the pitch we had the ascendancy although all three full backs, Adams and Tella made contributions. I just thought Shane Long starting was a shocking selection; and keeping him on until the 78th minute compounded the error - surely Broja or Armstrong A. would have been the better call.
