Dusic Posted 14 July, 2023 Share Posted 14 July, 2023 Looking at that squad its clear that" - We can easily lose one of Tino or KWP and not need to replace - Perraud can go - Central midfield needs new additions when JWP and Lavia go - If we can keep Kamaldeen and Tella then wide options are good but could probably use another one there - Striker a huge issue if Adams goes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disconnect Posted 14 July, 2023 Share Posted 14 July, 2023 Gutted that Edozie is not on the tour, but hopefully just an injury? He's a major talent and thought he was badly managed at the back end of last year. Wouldn't be surprised to see Small leave for a nominal fee.

Convict Colony Posted 14 July, 2023 Share Posted 14 July, 2023 First off I'm an idiot I was thinking who the fuck is Charles. Secondly is Edozie actually back training as he was away with the youth, maybe he's a few weeks behind and is putting in fitness work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SotonianWill Posted 15 July, 2023 Share Posted 15 July, 2023 i’m looking forward to this game. I’m hoping to see us build on the style of football and try some fluidity in our attacks. Additionally, I hope we show signs of a plan B. With Burnley last season many of their goals also came from balls over the top for Tella to run onto. For games like Benfica where we found it hard to break them down, this would be a decent option. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the playbook on how to defend set plays and corners has made its way to the B team. Every single player stood on the floor. Two defenders ball watching and the player responsible for marking the attacker not even looking at the ball.

egg Posted 15 July, 2023 Share Posted 15 July, 2023 B Team teams from their 3 - 1 defeat at Oxford. Saints first half: Mohamed, Squires (Abu), Lancashire, Simeu, Lett, Bragg, Dibling, Iwumene, Pearce, Andrews, Small. Saints second half: McNamara, Abu, Hewlett, Simeu (Bailey), Carson, Bragg (Squires), Miles, Finnigan, Edwards, Ehibhatiomhan, Robinson Stand outs for me is Diamond Edwards is back, and Small was played further up the pitch.

HarvSFC Posted 15 July, 2023 Share Posted 15 July, 2023 You can see and hear some of Dragan's interactions at the end of the video. Asks Alcaraz about his English, welcomes Stephens back and introduces himself to Charles. Could all just be PR, but it has endeared myself towards him. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Matty 76 Posted 15 July, 2023 Share Posted 15 July, 2023 Be interesting to see Smallbone in a midfield two. Looked to play in attacking midfield quite a bit for Stoke but that’ll hopefully be occupied for Alcaraz for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
