Convict Colony

I assume this is a joke

Daka ;-)

Without derailing this into another redmond thread why don't footballers proactively work on how to manage their confidence with a sport psychologist given i hear this excuse again and again "low on confidence". If I am redmond - I look at myself and realise I need confidence to play my best but my confidence is not robust, crowds can get me down, when its not going my way i retreat into safety first etc. Speaking with someone to put things into perspective etc about your job, what makes you happy and giving them techniques to use when needed surely should help them. Someone on here must be a sports psycholgist or been to one at least and can inform a bit better ?

Ok lets start this optimism bandwagon back up again ahead of saturday. I look at this team from the other day and i see NO ONE who would worry me as a southampton fan, they may say the same for most of our team except for Danny Ings but I'd think they would worry about JWP as well at least. I see CB's and wing backs who could be flustered by our pressing and I dont see too much pace in midfield so assuming Diallo is back we have that advantage there as well. For me this is a good looking championship team (hard working, bit of quality) so the question is can our current team beat this lot ? I'm saying yes as I expect Diallo and KWP at least to provide the positivity and spark to raise the levels.

I hope they need someone to pass it backwards and sideways alot

Go the reggae boyz

Shows what we were like that season. I think Redders won player of the season because it more of a participation award that season as he had 36 appearances when the next player was hoj on 31. Ings & JWP had 7 goals Redders 6 Long 5 Using whoscored as the rating sytem both Jan and Jannik were rated better that season than redders.

10-0 win for us Every outfield player to score, janik's is a 50yard screamer

The most I've got from this thread is Heisie is back. Where you been ? enforced leave of absence ? jail ? back from secret agent stuff ? or finally took the time to spend some of that winnings on a holiday ?

Just realised where I've seen Salisu before

I get that but no one was questioning it when we were top in Nov. Same manager just a terrible run of injuries for the last 2 months

A non injured player

difference between owners. 34m iwobi is on the bench for everton, we have stephens who cost 150k from plymouth. Yes MLG I know we have mccarthy and possibly tellla who cost more but its undisclosed.

fucks sake

Ok I am bored of us being crap, I'm bored of us having no cash ever and I am bored of excuses. Tonight i demand a win

Thanks bro but i'm gonna say no on this one - he doesnt float my boat and based on Ibrahima's performances to date i'd like us to go back shopping in France which is pretty cheap like us.

Maybe the main problem is you dont read peoples comments properly, I said "At least with Ralph I know what he is trying to do"

Puel's style was boring and we spent a season passing side ways and backwards and he is also 15th in the french league currently with St Etienne At least with Ralph I know what he is trying to do, we are trying to be quick in transition but we are currently lacking the players to do it due to injuries and lack of backing.

Not at judging players https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11700/10533142/nathan-redmond-similar-to-arsenal-legend-thierry-henry-claims-southampton-boss-claude-puel

Yeah I'd agree with this. Wages + age + impact do not add up for Bertrand. Ing's looks like he is off so bye bye in the summer thanks for the goals. Remove as much deadwood from the wage bill as possible and get younger and hungry players in.

Not signing up, any relevant notes ?

It's hard to be optimistic when you see the same faults over and over again. Squad depth and quality, I just hope we meet a team soon who gets fucked over by var, can't score or we have a covid outbreak and postpone our games. Just want 6 more pts asap please.

Conversely we lost because we couldn't execute our attacks properly. We are more likely to have good games defensively based on this season than good games attacking in my view. We all know if we go behind we are going to struggle, it's been apparent since Ings first injury period. Squad depth and.backing.for the manager is my main gripe.

That's not what I said, I said their finishing was clinical and was the difference for me, we had good chances but they were squandered.
