CONFIRMED - Virgil Van Dijk joins on Five Year Deal
sadoldgit replied to Brizzie Saints's topic in The Saints
He was a quality player and although as you say he didn't live up to his hype, he still was decent for us. I don't think we used him properly though. -
I am sure he wasn't. He would have wanted a win. But that was made less likely by very poor defending and poor 1st half performance. Taking the game as a whole we were lucky to come away with a point even if we did finish the game stronger than them. As I said, if they had taken their chances earlier we would have been well out of the game by the time we got our 2nd.

That's football though isn't it? You have to take your chances and if Newcastle had of done they would have been out of sight well before Long got the equaliser. As long as Mane keeps making the runs he does he will get goals. The attacker hasn't been born yet who puts every chance away. Harsh to blame Mane for not getting three points after the two poor goals we gave away.

It was a clear cut hack and should have been a red. I'd say the same if one of our players had done it.
-
Newcastle "should" also have done better out of several clear cut chances that they had earlier in the game.

Just watched Mane's last two chances again and don't think either were sitters. Great movement for both but the defender got a good block in for the first. For the second it isn't easy to be that accurate at speed. Perhaps he shouldn't have tried to stick it right in the corner but players of that quality go for that and he was unlucky, just a shade out and you look like an idiot. Quality player who will score plenty of goals for us. Steve Davis wasted better chances against Spurs last season.

That's Clasie fooked then!
-
The opinion on here is that the defence was very poor yet 6 people have given MotM votes to defenders?
-
Totally agree. But at least the club is still in the family and his legacy lives on.
-
He will still have to go some way to beat Bobby Charlton's efforts to deny baldness. That comb-over lasted for years!

Stalking? You are as hard to avoid as the clap in a brothel when things are going your way Alpine. As for twisting. Really? What have I twisted? You jump all over the management of the club every time they don't come up to your expectations. And that is pretty much every transfer window. Even when we did sign someone early in the season (Martina) you slated him as being a pub footballer. You really need to find something else to take your frustrations out on otherwise one of these days they will find you slumped over your keyboard. You have no idea what is going on behind the scenes but that doesn't stop you making negative assumptions and spouting your nonsense here. Really, just try waiting to see what happens before you dump your negativity on others.

There always looking for a new someone of something. At his peak Gerrard was awesome and a quality player in his own right and nothing like Pirlo as he had a lot more to his game.

Sounds like you need to go on a self awareness course Alps! Do us all a favour will you please? Wait until the transfer window closes and if we haven't signed a CH that meets your exacting requirements, feel free to come on and say I told you so. Until then, can you give it a rest as it is tedious. -
Good old Alpine, never lets an opportunity to have a dig at the club go undug. Maybe it is Celtic you should be having a pop at since they are the ones who seem to be delaying the deal (if there is one). Still, we played well and lost on the opening day of last season so I am happy with a point after a not so great performance.

Glad to see JRod starting. Worried about the defence this year. I think we will score more but concede more too. A draw would do for me today.

Cork on just before half time.
