Gloucester Saint Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Sheaf Saint said: Well it didn't last long. It's 3-1 to City now. Their keeper had a McCarthy moment for City’s second. McKenna and Martin are going to have to be more realistic about the PL, times to play and times to be pragmatic. As for Saints, should be 2-0 down so at least a positive that’s it’s still 0-0 but Martin has to change tactics here and go more direct at times to beat the press and turn their midfield and defence. Not every time of course but far too predictable and Nuno tactically giving him a lesson here. Hope Lesley ready soon as some physical presence badly needed.

gio1saints Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) They are very physical athletic team and we are kind of getting outmuscled. And they RUN! A lot.
