Leeds 1-0 Saints - Match Thread

Two awful teams, neither look anywhere near premiership quality.  I'm normally a big fan of Armstrong, but today he has been woeful, no idea what he was thinking when he had our best chance of the half.  My bet is that we will be playing Leeds next season as well, but not in this league.

Leeds have a hard working midfield that can allow them to dominate the game and create chances. Wehre they struggle is creating that final pass and finishing, as they're not so good up front. If you can pass through their midfield, or bypass it, then they're defence will struggle.

Unfortunately, we can;t string a pass together. So, no chance of getting it past the middle third. We do have a target man, but haven;t used him in that way, and he's not usually in the best position to pick anything up.

We have little shape out there, and any forward action depends on how Leeds failed to convert, rather than any system of passing from us. Some slack passing gave them three or four attacks too. Nothing came from them, but that's because of their limitations. If we keep  doing it, it increases their chances. It certainly stops us doing anything.

Not watching as not a fan of streams. Sounds like we've been very poor and changes will be needed at half time if we are to get anything from this game. From what I read on here Moi and Stu have been really ineffective so I'd swap them for KWP and Alcaraz. The good news is that it's level at half time but the feeling I get is that Leeds are the likely winners unless we up our game by a long way and start giving them more to worry about. Has the feel of a scrappy 1-0 defeat with nothing to take out of it. Hope Ruben can lift them at half time because we need to be offering more against a Leeds side who last won in November.

Not really, he's had some ups and downs, in this one.  But obviously that goes against the narrative. 

Bednarek has actually be very good other than the big cock up. Thankfully he got it out his system and we didn't concede so hopefully that'll be his quota of cock ups filled for this game (although he owes one for the Chelsea game! )

ok that 1st half was horrendous watching unless your putting together a blooper real.

Just got a bottle of red to help me cope with the 2nd half.

Want Armstong off and probably Moi as well either at HT or at 60mins.

Tall paul has looked ok when he's had the ball the rest seem hurried, like JWP telling everyone to slow it down which makes sense as Leeds can only play fast fast fast.

Araonsen looks like a diver and Selles looked proper pissed off going down the tunnel.

So you think maybe he has potential now?! 😀 

I've always said his potential is irrelevant, he could well be the best keeper in the world by the time he's 28 but I won't give a shit if we get relegated because he doesn't make meaningful contributions.

Not on here enough to know what narrative you're referring too. He was just shitter in that half than anyone else who was shit.

What happened to Edozie??? Not even on the bench…

Hopefully Sulemana ups his game 2nd half, if not get Mara on for him. 

AMN isn’t playing too badly, but no chance he starts over KWP at right back, he’s one of our best players


 

Edozie played for the kids team last night. I think he was having too much pressure put on him. I had an argument with someone on FB last night because they called Edozie a waste of money because he has no end product because he has 0 goals or assist. Football fans are so autistic.

Madness that these 2 were not on from the start.

Not madness to keep a winning team. You'd be whinging if he'd made those changes and we conceded cos of an error that one of them had made.

AMN was ok last week but yeah i don't get the logic in not playing 1 of our best players because we won last week.
