So disappointing. Honestly, Adams is a waste of a strikers position. He has no pace, no composure and no positional sense. And seemingly other priorities other than scoring for Saints. Whether we go up or not, I’ll be glad to see the back of him.
Have a horrible feeling Russ has had too much time on his hands to overthink team selection and will go with something daft like Stephens at CB, HB at right back and KWP at LB. If he does we’ll lose…we don’t do breaks well generally.
There will always be richer clubs than other clubs whatever league you’re in. That’s not the issue here. It’s whether you ruin the COMPETITION by cheating rules or simply use your money to hoover up talent and plonk it on the bench so other teams don’t get a look in….thats the problem. Leicester are as complicit as City or Chelsea and should face points deduction now for their past misdemeanour’s.
I like Rothwell, but if we go up I’m not sure he’s going to be good enough for EPL survival, in the same way Stu Armstrong will not be. If we don’t go up he’ll be the perfect asset for the Championship where he’s a cut above most others and I’d expect him to be offered a full contract assuming Bournemouth will sell.
I don’t mind JT and AB ~ pretty balanced, although I sometimes wish for more commentary on the actual performance and less opinion of what’s right or wrong…that’s not really a commentators job during the game, but good in the break/after the final whistle.
A much needed win, but are we fully happy with that? Effectively ends 2-0 and at home to a very poor Sunderland. Don’t blame the players - all down to the Manager and his selection.
