SuperMikey Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 Can jaidi play another game so quickly. The guy was my mom today. Seaborne wasn't in the side today so i'm guessing he'll start on Tuesday - Adkins is probably trying to keep him fresh. That's a good system actually, resting Jaidi and Seaborne alternately and having Martin on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_clark Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 I know changing the side too much after a win can often have a negative affect, but would anyone else want to see Richardson play instead of Butterfield? I like Danny but he hoofs it a lot and even his short passing was wayward today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 Team should be: Davis Richardson Fonte © Martin Harding Chamberlain Chaplow Schneiderlin Lallana Lambert Barnard Subs: Shea, Dickson, Jaidi, Butterfield, Hammond, Forte, Guly As much as I like Butterfield, I think I prefer Richardson. Their distribution is equally suspect but Richardson is much more solid. I think Jaidi may struggle after such a good performance today, and I would love to see more of Aaron Martin. He did well against Blackpool. I like Hammond, but my preferred midfield partnership is RC and MS. It's hard though when DH is captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 Richardson's passing is a lot worse. Must say I completely disagree. Sometimes he tries more longer balls to try switch play and these are noticeable if they don't come off, but generally speaking I think Richardson is slightly better, partly because he seems more aware of his options. Neither are outstanding passers, but also it must be said that in general a full back is often left with less options to pass to because of his position on the pitch and so can be more harshly judged. If the opposition close down midfield options, more often than not they are left with only the option of a percentage ball down the line or into the channel. The midfield and his centre backs can help by making themselves more available. You're relying on others to move for you more in that position, than when the ball is in the middle of the park.

itchen_dan Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 My first choices for the two CMs would be Chaplow and Schneiderlin anyway. Gotta agree! Hammond looks like he is wading through custard when he runs. Too slow and misses alot of tackles. But whilst he's captain, he'll be playing. Rather Fonte be captain.

trousers Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 Bournemouth and Peterborough don't have a game on Tuesday and Huddersfield have a tricky tie away to "do well against the top sides at home" Hartlepool. So, in theory, we stand a good chance of being 3rd on Tuesday, just 3 points behind Bournemouth with 2 games in hand. In theory... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintBobby Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 Start with Schneiderlin and Barnard for sure. Jaidi was immense today, but assuming he needs resting soon. I thought Hammond was pretty good today, so I'd drop Chaplow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSAINT Posted 26 February, 2011 Share Posted 26 February, 2011 I accepted the draw with Hartlepool as long as we beat Swindon, so on that front, job done. Stats-wise, Walsall have lost 9 at home already this season, and only Peterborough have conceded more at home in the whole league. 3pts is a must.

SaintBobby Posted 27 February, 2011 Share Posted 27 February, 2011 We should win but can't afford any silly goals to get their crowd going. Watch this near post shots kelvin. Tough game simply because it's a crap ground and they have nothing to lose. Aren't they doing a fair job of scrapping hard for their lives and possibly engineering a great escape from relegation? 3-0 to Saints though IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExSt Peter Saint Posted 27 February, 2011 Share Posted 27 February, 2011 Will be there to see a game finally. Walsall were in terrible form when the game was originally scheduled, so hope the slight improvement since then will mean nothing and we'll prove our team is good enough to be in the automatic places. With a fit combination of Lallana, Oxo and Lambert playing to their best ability we should be unstoppable in this league. Also like the competition for places throughout the team and don't feel we have a really weak link, unlike recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Danny but he hoofs it a lot and even his short passing was wayward today. I'd be disappointed if that chnage wasnt made. Butterfield was outstanding in his first few games, but hasn't been as good recently. It would also send out the perfect message. Given the options available, any drop in form and someone takes your place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 27 February, 2011 Share Posted 27 February, 2011 Tough call with the RB position. Butterfield didn't have such a good game yesterday but I feel he is a lot more consistent than Richardson whose passing and distribution can be terrible. Maybe Morgan will start too, as shown yesterday we are a different team when he gets time on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint 76er Posted 27 February, 2011 Share Posted 27 February, 2011 Couple of things I picked up on in Adkins interview on BBC website .. He said Guly came off with a slight hamstring strain and the interviewer said weather forecast for Tues is looking dodgy and chance of postponement. In response Nigel said, quite firmly, that he was only concerned with what was controllable not what wasn't. Sounds like Guly might miss out then, thus smoothing the path for Barnard to start ...
