BotleySaint Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 The two teams operate on a different budget. We've spent a reasonable amount, but Utd sign one player for £40m+. We quite rightly should be nowhere near them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, could not agree more. When an 18 year old kid is our best player by a country mile we have real issues (no matter how good Dibling is). We look bereft of ideas up front (DIbling aside) and ARcher is like a little boy lost (yet another panic signing: clearly not good enough). BBD has been hopeless and KWP is showing why no decent side was in for him. Game over - no way Saints score 1 let alone 2. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 (edited) At the game. Decent approach play from us but too open at the back. Ramsdale frustratingly gesticulating at the manager every time we fail to close them down on the edge of the box. Would be another 2 or 3 down if it wasn't for a few superb saves from Ramsdale. (Although thought he could've come out to punch the ball for their first...? but was probably relying on our defenders to do their job though?) Wouldn't surprise me if we reverted to 3 at the back second half Dibling superb. Edited September 14 by trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandwichsaint Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Ramsdale v good, would be 6 by now with Baz. Dont know what JS was doing with that corner. Archer poor, BBD no end product. Downes, Les, Fernades, Dibling all good enough for this league. One magic moment from KWP but again we look completely open down the left when they break. Neither CB good enough, might as well play THB and Ronnie Pickering next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obelisk Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 Saints slightly more direct in attack but still over-passing and missing runs off the back of Utd's defence. Doesn't help if missing with a free shot from 12 yards out though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We very obviously can score at least one goal; it won’t be easy but we’ve played well enough generally to still have a chance of getting something, however unlikely.

All a bit depressing really, but tbh we all knew that in all likelihood we were going to struggle badly and so it’s turning out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OttawaSaint Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 I gave Bednarek a pass because he did well in the champ but for him to still be in there, after all that Yanny stuff when he came back from Villa, the comical own goal vs Wolves and then all his comedy defending that saw us relegated.

FarehamSaintJames Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 The fact that Tyler Dibling is out brightest spark says a lot about the ability of the rest of the attacking players.
