Sheaf Saint Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Just now, lambtiss said: I don't think that is true in this instance. Most Saints fans would agree that Downes has been immense. He really has. We don't have anyone even close to his level to step up when he's missing and it really shows in our overall performances without him. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Matty 76 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 We’ve seen we have enough off the bench to be confident we can win it in the second half, but need big changes and another fast start. And then pray to everything that Downes is back for Friday somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintant Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Smallbone is being let down by others in midfield. He has a great partnership with Downes but those who come in like tonight are not good enough. Not sure what the answer is because we don't have anyone remotely on the level of Downes. Fear a defeat here as things stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saints haven't got that message yet. This. Worried about their intensity versus ours.

Bad Wolf Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 9 minutes ago, Convict Colony said: God that was shit. A Armstrong missing in action again and him and edozie are trying to see who can hit the a man the most on crosses or shots. Charles passing like stevie wonder Smallbone being smallbone, circulating looking busy but not affecting anything. Manning just existing Baz and CBs playing well Rothwell and Brooks trying to play faster KWP got a sore back from carrying the team. Hoped sat was a fluke with how shit we were first half but lets see. Agree with everything other than AA. Don't think he's been missing at all but he works off finding space, there's obviously going to be less of that when playing in the middle of a tight pitch like Ashton gate as opposed to wide at St Mary's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
