Dr Who? Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 We were looking more dangerous when slightly more up and at them. We have become more tappy tappy. We have been great but just eased off a little. 1
OttawaSaint Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Feel slightly nervous, a cock up and Weds goal would undo all our good work. Need that second goal... 4
SNSUN Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 I'm liking the two wide players on the side of the 433/4321 but AA despite the effort doesn't seem to be the answer up there (besides his deflection). Defo work needed there.
thornhill_saints Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Fucking hell - is that a Richard Chaplow 🤣
The Kraken Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 1 minute ago, obelisk said: Am I being too harsh in thinking that we need to be more ruthless in the attacking areas? Not really. It’s been an absolutely excellent start but for all the domination we’ve only had one shot on target and it all seems a bit “nice” up front. Said it before but think we need a proper focal point like Rickie Lambert used to give us before we’re a proper threat of a team.
OttawaSaint Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Scramble in the area but we couldn't capitalize.
Ex Lion Tamer Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Edozie can go past players with such ease at this level. Just needs end product 1

Saint_clark Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Armstrong dropping way too deep into midfield, once we work it wide he's playing catch up and nobody is in the middle for the cross. 1

FarehamSaintJames Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Half Time take: Wow we look good, but then SW are route one and no more. Tella and KWP link up looks excellent. CM’s link up looks excellent SW look a little feisty. As do the Burnley fans who launched their TV remotes at the screens when Tella scored that thunderbastard and added another couple of million to his price tag. 😁
obelisk Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 With all these yellow cards we'll be seeing games of 9 v 9. 1
Holmes_and_Watson Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Smallbone taking the wrong option there.
Raging Bull Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 What’s the crack with the technical areas? They’re both in the right. RM is a 3rd of the way into their half
skintsaint Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Been a dominating first half in a tricky game. We know whats coming up next... 1
Thereisonlyonemickychannon Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 OK...Good possession but bloody dull 1

BotleySaint Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Maybe I expect too much but all I've seen in the last 10 mins is basically the same as last year. Not much real threat. Slow, ponderous football. 1
saintant Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Total domination, some lovely passing Phases and great shape. The only thing missing is goals - apart, of course, from AA's deft header 🙂
Saint_clark Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 I'd much rather they just stop the clock and reduce match times to 80 minutes than add on this much extra time.
obelisk Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Well in control but only one goal. If that's enough then fine but Wednesday are bound to lump a couple of dangerous chances together. Need to win this 3 or 4. 1
Saint Matty 76 Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Well that was about as dominating a half as you'll see. The progression we really need to see now from a RM team is killing this game off ASAP.
trousers Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 (edited) Russell Martin going back to his seat at half-time rather than straight down the tunnel.... what's that all about? Edited 4 August, 2023 by trousers
AlexLaw76 Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 I wonder how this technical area and knocking the ball away malarky will last, when Klopp and Bruno Fernandes start to act up

Convict Colony Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 I love being the man city of the championship, just need more goals to make it truly enjoyable. Weirdly KWP doesnt fill me with confidence (might be his pre-season give away) and why are we only crossing to edozie for some reason. 1
Suhari Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Enjoyed that. Tidy. We still lack the all-important cutting edge. If you put a SRL or a GP type upfront in that team we would be cruising. Need a new striker. 1

GDog07 Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 Edozie is exciting me tonight. We seen glimpses of it in the Premier League last year. He could be a star this season if this first half is anything to go by! 2

skintsaint Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 SW are an older team, they may tire out 2nd half a bit more. 1
Saint Scott Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 (edited) With the addition of a prolific scorer at this level I feel very optimistic for this season. We must keep tella he's invaluable and £15m from burnley won't replace that Edited 4 August, 2023 by Saint Scott 1
trousers Posted 4 August, 2023 Posted 4 August, 2023 I think we'll end up winning this 3-0 #kissofdeath 1
