Saint Matty 76 Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 Whilst Manning is really poor, the even worse reality is that it’ll probably be Holgate in for him with KWP switching to the left for Preston. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sydney_saint Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 I get trying to get a style of football that would work in the prem. There's no point playing a hoofball and going up if we get demolished. I would happily give up a season to do that. But does anyone see this style working in the prem? It's just awful, it's not original, it's not challenging to play against. There is a reason it has never resulted in a team getting promoted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Matty 76 Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 Another shit half where we look no better than midtable Championship opposition, in fact I’d say we looked worse. KWP the only positive. Need to get Sulemana involved more and really disappointed with Alcaraz yet again. The experiment with him up top is not working for me.

die Mannyschaft Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 It's boring. Passive, negative football. I struggle to stay awake ar SMS so I can't see how the Saints players can pickup the pace or be more attacking and faster if they needed when 2 one 1 down or 1 down, 2 down. Its almost that we start the game with a draw or don't let 2 in mentality. The team is completely unbalanced some players 8/10 some 3/10. Its better to have players at allotment same level. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obelisk Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 Sorry but this dreadful. Opponents just know how to counter this crab like stuff by now. Endlessly losing the ball in our own half won't help to win games. Even when Saints get upfield there doesn't seem to be much confidence or any plan. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bewildered Posted 21 October, 2023 Share Posted 21 October, 2023 Highlight of the half was manning getting a 5th booking, ensuring he can't play the next game.

RM is attempting to coach possession based football yet, rather than building play in a measured way we are reliant on a couple of instances of individual skill. Something not working unless I'm missing something. Still, we're promised that eventually it will suddenly just click into gear - not under RM and his coaches it won't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
