  1. Well, the other team will have more possession, you close them down, shift it forward quickly second man available, into the box, shots on goal. Setups can be anything. Obviously at the weekend, there were errors early on and it went pear shaped, but Soton had double the shots, and were equal with shots on target. The Brighton ones came about mainly due to errors, but 80 per cent of football is about confidence, it is what it is. It's not going to be as pretty, but Soton will be fine.
  2. Southampton will be fine, just chill. It was all aboard the daftee express the weekend gone, but the core principles are being embedded, you'll see improvement as we go.
  3. No, my family run a mental health charity in England, I oversee some aspects, remotely now, and as part of that we attend charity functions during the year with football clubs, mainly to build relationships, to get funding etc.. Through these functions, you meet alot of people from alot of clubs, and they like to drink, relax and talk football. And they love to opine about other football clubs. So, I have heard millions of conversations about all sorts of things over the years. I don't know Nathan Jones, but I know he's highly thought of by alot of people.
  4. Hi, Jones is highly regarded in footballing circles and is extremely flexible. He will base the formation and style of play around the strengths of the players. The only aspect he is consistent with is the high press, and having players around the ball to pass to. The reason he plays the way he does right now is that with the hoof ball, if certain players are playing, there is a 90 per cent chance of picking the ball up then pushing forward. It's just about numbers. He likes his players focussed and fit, and he's a hands on manager. From a footballing perspective, he's a very good manager, it's just going to be about how the players adapt to him and his methods
