Saints Won, Watford 1.....Post match meltdown
saint lard replied to Ohio Saint's topic in The Saints
As I've stated before....we look impotent in the final third....especially with this formation. Højbjerg needs to start. This fancy dan system may work in France but it won't work against Premier league opposition. No offence but that was Watford! and we got lucky to get a draw. Too narrow,Tadic out wide to produce assists.....get in a decent No 10 if we have to persist with this. Square pegs in round holes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Crap system.....we will get torn apart unless the players get to grips with it sharpish. Until we get more attacking option in I can't see us scoring many. Long way to go in this one....perhaps we can turn it around. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Puel is nearly as mundane as Adkins......lets hope he's a better manager.....and we win something. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shame Mario Gómez is 31.....not a typical saints signing at that age. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Please don't sign Zaza..... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If we are at military levels of security......could you hint at what we are at now....... DEFCON 1....2,3,4.....not 5 surely,that implies it's a huge signing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Absolutely spot on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

'It doesn't show the ambition everyone is expecting'........ I'm not expecting any at the moment unfortunately. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm watching Tadic play through the middle... Terrible. Waste of his talent. Redmond looks great. So lacking in the final 3rd. Long finished nicely. No sodding width on the left. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for you suggestions people....my crawl is about to commence!.....if by chance you see someone asleep in the Northam....give me a dig. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Recommendations for a decent pub/pubs before the game today would be great fully received. In town or near the ground,possibly with sky for the midday championship game. Usually go with my 10 year old son so don't get the opportunity to get there early and have a couple of beers. Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking forward too tomorrow. I feel it's quite an important game for us.....albeit just a 'friendly'. Hope it's a good turn out. Train gets in at 10am....get a ticket.....then a few beers. Really don't know the best place to go however.....especially when on my own. Here's hoping we are full of positivity afterwards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Depressingly worrying. But there is plenty of time left. Of course it would be great to have a complete and settled squad for the off.....not always feasible though. We aren't the only ones by along way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The New Formation Thread : The Puel 4-4-2 Diamond

Puel.....gone by xmas? What odds on that then? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Hopefully Koeman will come in for Clasie.....on the evidence so far it would be no great loss. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Top 8. Get out of the group stages of the Europa League. Have a good run in both cups. This is achievable with a couple of additions to the squad imo. Just require a little more from the board. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It appears Puel agrees with me according to the post match interview tonight....should have done more in the final third of the pitch......in other words we we remain impotent in that part of the field. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Perfect. Although I remain hopeful that an addition of some attacking flair will be incoming. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think wants to stay living in Staffordshire....unfortunately. Would like to be proved wrong.......I'm sure we could persuade him otherwise,presuming we are even interested! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agreed....wish this was from a reliable source. Despite him appearing to have some 'issues' I think he fits the bill perfectly for us. I think he would get his head down and fulfil the obvious potential he has. I still believe we have atleast one signing of note to make. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I bought the home shirt to keep up my collection......the quality is very good and it's comfortable to wear. The sizing is completely mad i have to say. And I'm conscious that it looks like I'm wearing a sports bra. The shop at the stadium was the quietest I have ever seen.....I enquired during paying what the sales were like this far......'not great at the moment'......'but we hope it will get better with the upcoming home friendlies' The impression I got was it was not going to be a top seller. Initially i thought the away shirt looked quite nice,I've got black from before and it is nice but that had red also,........however seeing the players in it I thought it looked so dull. And boy the black and grey is equally disappointing up close. We missed a great opportunity.....again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When contract offers and talks are leaked to the media it usually means that someone is probably off. So I can see one of these leaving. PR spin from the club to say to the fans ' we tried to keep him honest' we offered a new or improved contract. No one knew about Long,Bertrand and the other recent contract renewals.

Hugo Scheckter is on his way to London for an exciting appointment apparently. Obviously could be nothing Saints related....but I'm clinging to the hope that our transfer window may just get a tad positive at some point. Ever the optimist. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Christ.....I think anyone could cherry pick one game where it all clicked.....especially against an appalling Sunderland. We lack creativity in the final third,and have done for a while. The number of times it all slows down....goes sideways or backwards has cost us in games we should've won or even got a point out of. And now we lost Mane,someone that had atleast one ounce of pace and daring has gone. We look impotent in the final third and for quite sometime. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We've been atrocious in the final third for season upon season....lots of fannying about but no end product. Can we address this please. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
