Dr Who? Posted 5 August, 2023 Share Posted 5 August, 2023 2 minutes ago, Chez said: Would be good to see him back at his best in his final season with us (I presume). Needs to be fully fit and making those lung busting runs breaking between the lines. Like to see him making more third man runs into the box. We need runners without the ball to hurt opponents and he could do that. Agreed, it is all very different running with the ball at your feet, but you need to do this without the ball to create space for the likes of Tella, JWP and Adams… if they stay. I did say there was a lack of this last night, but when a team sits deep with everyone behind the ball it is hard to create any space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobJones1971 Posted 5 August, 2023 Share Posted 5 August, 2023 25 minutes ago, Chez said: If we had conceded a late goal last night instead of scoring it, and going when we inevitably lose games in the future do you think you will still be content with the style? For me, when we have controlled the game, that's when we have given ourselves the best chance of winning games. The press has been effective at times, but we very rarely win on the break. We have to have the ball. The midfield need to be totally on top. I get the result is the be-all and end-all, but the way we played last night gave us a great chance to win the game. Not comparing us to Man City but the total possession game they play does not guarantee them victory but gives them a great chance, plus is miles better to watch than the recent football we have played that has made our eyes bleed. So to answer your point if (and when as it will happen) if we lost, then I would have been gutted, but yes I would have seen more positives than negatives and would praise what RM is trying to achieve. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Gifford Posted 5 August, 2023 Share Posted 5 August, 2023 Good start, at the end of the day it’s points on the board that count. No one ever looks at the history books any other way. Interesting to see the starting 11 in a months time, and against some decent opposition. No disrespect to SW intended, but I hardly call them a challenge. RM is a million miles away from the pretenders of Jones and Selles, just want to see how he plays against the likes of Leeds, Leicester, Norwich, Boro, Sunderland ect. How does he set up against them, how does he handle tactics, Subs at the right time and game management. Not seen any of that yet. First game I know, Christmas will be the litmus test for me. Fantastic start, not to concerned about players ins and outs as what we lose we should attract quality given our standing. I am probably a minority, but the manager this season will be the difference between promotion or staying in this league for me. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny R Posted 5 August, 2023 Share Posted 5 August, 2023 3 hours ago, RobJones1971 said: I am sorry but I really don’t understand this. Did you enjoy the football of the last few years over the style last night? As a new team / style, the players did brilliantly IMO. The reason we walked around for the 9 minutes of stoppage time was they were completely shattered from chasing us while we had all the possession and simply could not press us to get the ball back. Recent seasons when we took a narrow lead into stoppage time we all expected to either draw or even lose the game. While we have possession they can’t lump it forward and get corners / free kicks, where we all recognise is our weakness. Only my opinion of course, but I would take this style of football over any of the dross we have served up in recent seasons, albeit in a lower division where we can hopefully use this style of play to be successful. Great post. Echoing my thoughts completely. Could also argue that a o late winner was made more likely due to Wednesday's fatigue. I loved it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not boring at all - good to watch I thought. In terms of pace - will be difficult for the crowd to get the old “Olé, Olé” going as the passes are often a bit too quick to keep up with, and the moves go on for ages. Compared to most of the possession football I’ve seen from saints in the past there was more variation and an anticipation that it might actually lead to a chance. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With JWP accuracy, he should look at the old pairing of Channon and Ron Davies, making separate runs from the edge of the box to a Paine cross. Also the better teams are going to have much better players. Man City have the magic of de Bruyne (best player in world for me) to make the killing runs and passes.We were falling into the high press trap of condensing their team so tightly it was difficult to get the final shot away. however a very impressive start with room for improvement as we improve.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 6 August, 2023 Share Posted 6 August, 2023 We were very dominant in possession, with a bit of a blunt tooth and a lack of height in defence. Our team in general lacks height and strength at the back…in particular Smallbone could do with bulking out a bit as he can get outmuscled quite easily. Overall a very satisfying first visit to Hillsborough even if it was sat in amongst the home supporters. The problem of course with new players is who do leave out when a system is clearly working??? Incidentally I was sat very near to the dugouts and it was interesting to see the difference in how the Managers interacted with their team - Martin has much more command of his players than SW’s man, who had players shrugging at him in the first 15 minutes not knowing what to do to counter our play…didn’t seem to know what their roles were. I said to my friend that their team was setup wrong and not able to press us at the back which might have given them a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grezz Posted 6 August, 2023 Share Posted 6 August, 2023 We played well and it was a good result, but I share the concerns of others about our lack of penetration and our defence. Sheff Wednesday are very poor I think, and we were not able to put them away. They were gone by 20 mins and we let them back in it. Against teams who really know how to press we won't get away with that lack of penetration when have those phases where we are on top. It's early days and RM himself highlighted there was still a lot of work and development to be done (very refreshing RM!) so I hope we will improve in those areas. It's an encouraging start but I didn't see a team going up yesterday, despite the 80% possession and a generally good performance. A promotion hopeful would have put Sheff Weds away before half time based on their performance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that after Koeman, Puel tried to play a dysfunctional diamond that the players were mystified by. Over the season we got 46 points out of 114. It was the start of the unwatchable garbage that was even worse under Pellegrino and in many games under Ralph. Last year under Ralph, Jones amd Selles it was as bad as it gets. Friday was the first time in years that I saw a manager pick a balanced team that looked the part. I thought the possession football at this level was superb. The marking at set pieces needs an overhaul. Stop ballwatching and position to see the ball and the mark. If Smallbone had turned sideways and faces out he could have seen Ifore and the corner taken. He then only had to take a pace to his left and block Ifore most probably drawing a foul with neither getting the ball. Chelsea used to run interference to block markers trying to stop John Terry. This is virtually the same defending. I hope the new set piece coach picks up on it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
