  1. Agree with you on the taking a man on etc and dont mind him losing it but its where he loses it that is frustrating, the centre circle is never ideal but hey if this is all part of our learning then hopefully we move through this phase quickly
  2. Yeah had this for the last few days
  3. great article on our tactics - worth a read https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2021/01/05/tactical-secrets-behing-southamptons-stunning-league-campaign/

  5. yeah thought he had done it quite a few times but just seemed to be doing it more this season, its so bloodying annoying.
  6. Loved and hated that game for periods. Diallo covered everything like he was at a bukakke party and the thing he gives us v Romeu and what we have been lacking is forward passes as his default setting. Saw a stat that 22 out of 38 were forward passes and his clever close control in the midfield was awesome, JWP a good partner as well. Think defense as a bloc did very well and I think Stephens has been excellent since he has come in. Forster whilst it was nice to see him didn't inspire a lot of confidence in me. I saw a few times when stephens expected him to come and he was still inside his 6yr box and also his kicking has not improved. Armstrong has this annoying habit this season of dribbling into the centre circle trying to beat 3 players and losing it, not sure if Ralph has asked him to cut inside and try and open up his options but it is bloody annoying seeing him lose it and the oppo launch an attack. Walcott seemed to lose his close control and decision making last night, was Djenpo esq. Ings quality and well done to all the subs, nice to see ralph use young guys over long to give them a try, liked Nlundlu - he's actually a big striker with nimble feet. Enjoyed 22 pages of RAWK - in summary, there is a conspiracy by referee's, they hate carragher, they love ralph and everyone is out to get them.
  7. If walcott can stop hesitating when he gets the ball or getting in the way and if armstrong stops losing the ball in the centre circle after trying to dribble around 3 players we have a chance hahahahahahahahaha
  8. Logging into the Saintsforum bit is hanging for me over the last few days, I keep having to click on the last thread updated bit to get in. I am in NL so maybe I am being screwed since brexit haha
  9. Hopefully he becomes the wall that faced barca for celtic
  10. yeah not a bad idea trying for a loan, both us and him can try before we agree. Dont think he will come here though to be honest, think he wants a 'name' club.
  11. Generic link of us with celtics ryan christie on a free. Article says similar player as maddison and hard working. https://www.90min.com/posts/arsenal-premier-league-clubs-transfer-celtic-ryan-christie-leicester-southampton obligatory
  12. This is probably his agent when we call
  13. I think our academy is now pivoting to optimising the B team, so whilst we will always progress kids from the age groups we find it would not surprise me if we see a big influx of 16/17yr olds from big london clubs elsewhere who don't see the pathway to the 1st team and believe they have an opportunity to both learn the style in the B team and have a manager that will play them if they are good enough or ready.
  14. Fucks sake, its neck and neck in my fantasy team league and i still had mcarthy in goal. Get well soon alex, it will probably be a good one to miss anyway
  15. Yes please However, one player that has somehow gone under the radar is Owen Wijndal. The medium-built pacey left-back who is sometimes compared to Andrew Robertson in the twitter world due to their similar playing style https://totalfootballanalysis.com/article/owen-wijndal-scout-report-tactical-analysis-tactics
  16. If we have at least 2 players self isolating I wouldnt be surprised if we tried to get it postponed looking at the other games that were
  17. Everytime i see bedneraks name i think of Werners no look nutmeg at chelsea.
  18. They might have 100m but no one decent wants to go burnley and they wont increase their salary cap and annoy their better players.
  19. Interestingly i also stumbled upon Owen Wijndal this morning when i was checking out LB options on the continent, seems like a player but probably too much for us to spend unless its loan with buy in summer. Would try and target french clubs though with their tv deal collapsing, maybe Romain Perraud from Brest, cheaper and can use Diallo to sell it to him.
  20. Big Jannik in the team of the year for 2020
  21. Well I hope the ball boys are ready to retrieve Frasers punts straight off the pitch its been a while
  22. Not sure if it was someone else but when i looked who else on the bench did i see Kelvin Davis with a proper skin head or was that someone else ?
  23. Am already preparing sexy nuns, sexy nurse and sexy ladies gifs
  24. Feed our strikers and they will score, unfortunately they are on a diet over the last few games
  25. am going to say 3 positions. Right CB and LB and LW purely cos I want to see the right CB pinging crosses over to that side to launch attacks like Jan and Jack have been doing to Theo/Armstrong/KWP. We have no balance on the wings, right hand side is carrying the workload, the left side needs to step up. Edit - are both Salisu and Jan left footed or can Jan play on the right CB ?
