  1. Luck is not a thing that manifests in reality. Some goalkeepers have significantly better penalty save ratios than others (in part) because they are better at reading the body language of the attacker to determine what they intend to do.
  2. Desailly is the African Desailly! 😉 Marcel Desailly was born in Ghana to Ghanian parents.
  3. Dropping our best player isn't a great idea. If it is because Ings is out of form, well Adams is even more out of form!
  4. With circa only 1 in 10 people being left handed/footed there are going to be significantly more CB partnerships where both are right footed. That doesn't mean having one of each doesn't bring benefits as a pairing. It is easier for a left footed CB to cover his left back than a right footed centre back, and vice versa on the right side when covering the right back.
  5. To his credit he was in the right place at the right time, that in itself is a skill.
  6. People on the forum were not saying Vestergaard was left footed, just that he was working well as the left sided centre back as it was allowing him to ping balls out to Walker-Peters easier with his right foot with the angle he had playing LCB.
  7. Vestergaard is not left footed. He is good with his left foot, but he uses his right more.
  8. Lots of very daft posts in this thread, he is destined for the top.
  9. No it isn't The philosophy is independent from the formation. In any case we only played 3 at the back for about 5-10 minutes and then went to 4222 formation.
  10. A change of formation does not mean the philosophy changes.
  11. Is your 'craft' dredging up posts from 8 years ago? 🤔
  12. Saints played 441 after Jankewitz was sent off. Adams was upfront on his own and Ings played on the left.
  13. How have you worked that out?
  14. He did vs Wolves
  15. The last time was actually in the 2nd half vs Wolves at the weekend.
  16. The 19th century Scottish-American industrialist and philanthropist?
  17. Nothing wrong with asking questions. This is a forum... for discussion. Puzzling why you think I don't express my own view on Saints. I do all the time in this forum. Plus through FM my opinion on a huge number of aspects on Saints is publicly available. Probably more of my opinion on Saints is publicly available than anyone else on the planet!
  18. Who wears the @trousers on this forum?
  19. What would that achieve? Why do you think Ward-Prowse is incapable of motivating? You don't need to shout to motivate.
  20. That is a strange response to a question. What do you think I don't have my 'own ideas' about?
  21. How do you 'dig someone out'?
