macca155 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Onauchu has had a bum deal from Saints, deserves a decent run out. Definitely something there.

Osvaldorama Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I really want to be positive… ….but unless we spend like 100mil this week it’s gonna be a very difficult season.

S-Clarke Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Dull as dishwater really, I thought Getafe were the most anti-football Spanish side I've seen in a while. That was our 11 for next weekend - still some glaring holes we all know about, but they will get filled as we get to the end of the window.

gio1saints Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Call me a silly billy but last five or so minutes when TP was on we had a couple of chances to put ball into the box. Both came to nothing . But both times I thought to myself “ if they get it to him he will win the ball or create such a fuss we will score. I also found myself glowing with pleasure at the thought that saints actually have someone who IS a #9 and physically owns that forward central space normally empty for saints. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecuk268 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Highlight of the match for me was sitting across the aisle from Matt Le Tiss and getting a photo of him and my grandson. Coming out of the Chapel we couldn't turn right to Melbourne St. Everyone was funneled to Marine Parade and it was quite congested. If it's like that with 7000, 30000 is going to make it a lot worse.

derry Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I think Martin was keeping his fingers crossed that TP wouldn't score or assist so pushed Edozie up front and pulled TP back behind. That did the trick. If TP is on the field he has to play off the last defendef not the deep midfielder. That defence is going to give away loads of goals pinging it around in our own box. McCarthy got lucky today. The Premier League is an uncompromising place, now the opposition sees the way our defence plays it around they are going to be all over us like a rash. We were pretty sterile in attack and well outnumbered. Aribo was hopeless in getting forward to help. It was crying out for Alcaraz in his position. Dibling looks positive every time he plays. Two wing backs and three midfielders not getting forward will result in a lot of nil final scores. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 That was a dull as dull can be. Playing with two wide forwards didn't really lead to much and Getafe were pretty dirty, considering it was a preseason friendly. I thought their number six might throw himself to the floor if he'd tripped over that balloon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we have someone really creative between the two wide forwards, or a proper number 9 it won't work. However I would love to see us implement a 5-2-3 that becomes a 3-4-3 when in possession. Could really work if we have two bombing fullbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might sound harsh but both of them are weak links for us at PL level IMO. So is Stephens to be fair, but his place looks solid as long as we’re going for the 3 CB approach. Although I’m not sure I see Adarma, BBD and another striker as our starting lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
