WealdSaint Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 I thought we were the better team and had far more chances. MP's substitutions worked really well. JWP looked real class when he came on. The Sunderland keeper made 3 or 4 very good saves. Another day we would have won that 3-1 or even 4-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me he was one of the best players in the 1st half of the season and surprised MP doesn't start with him. Would take Punch over Gaston on this season's performances.

Yate Saint Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Thank god for Puncheons quick reaction. I wanted us to win and then enjoy the relegation fight next week but we must hope that Wigan lose Tuesday to make it an easier day... Shame the season is ending like this.

northam soul Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Well I guess we are safe but we are a long way off the dizzy heights of a top ten club.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Absolute dross from Lallana and Lambert. Poor performances from Jos H and Cork. Need to sort out the front-line issues in the summer - far too pedestrian in attack and not clinical enough when shooting in front of goal (if we ever do).

Sheaf Saint Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 It's like when we got promoted out of L1 - it wasn't mathematically guaranteed because of the necessary goal-swing, but we all knew we had done it. As for today's game, it was as frustrating as it has been for the last few weeks. Once again Lambert has a poor game and once again we look toothless up front. All the pretty possession football in the world counts for nowt if you can't stick the ball in the net. While we clearly have the nucleus of a good side, major changes are needed in the summer if we are to progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Typical, lots of possession, no end product whilst on top. Should have won. Safe, almost by default. How does Lallana continue to start week in, week out is beyond me. Defence ? Should have been sorted from January 2012, when we looked like heading to the Premier, but no.

Saint Without a Halo Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Great result well done saints coming from behind to confirm our safety with home stoke still to go! As I said after Reading we were safe and will not go down! I still believe 39 points was enough but this point ensures no squeeky bum time next week!

JoeShmoe Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Really cannot understand why Lallana is starting ahead of Punch, we took a major step up when he came on. JWP looks he's filling out and bulking up a bit - might be a surprise next year Shaw and Clyne were very good again. Still feel Cork and Morgan get bullied far too easily and Rickie just looks like he's had it for the year, put in such a shift That team wont be the 11 that starts next season, but 3 or 4 quality additions and we ought to kick on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaSaint Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 If we'd taken half of our chances we'd have won easily, but yet again we didn't and we threw ourselves at the mercy of our own weak centre back pairing. Not one of these players was brought here by Pochettino, so I'm delighted to have survived. The real test of Pochettino will come in the Summer.

Stu Man Do Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 Reasonable first half followed by a crap 20 mins after HT and allowing them to get on top but only one team looked like they could win it after we equalised. Lallana, for me, should be dropped for Puncheon. Not only does he give us a better goal threat but he defends far better than AL. Lamberts also looking well off the boil how many times did the cameras show him having a mardy moment? All of this fades away against the back drop of although not mathematically safe, us staying up! Could still easily end up around 10th if results go our way next weekend! Get in lads thanks for not giving it up at 1-0 down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M271 Posted 12 May, 2013 Share Posted 12 May, 2013 The positive to take out of our stuttering end to the season is that Poch and Cortese will have seen the strenghtening and improvement that needs to happen to move us to the next level. If we has comfortably fininshed mid Table if only 5 of 6 points more then they may have been complacent and stuck more with what we have got.
