sotonist Posted 16 August, 2014 Share Posted 16 August, 2014 “The physical work we are doing in training is not as intense under the new manager,” he said. interesting given the article i read that said Jan Kluitenberg had been criticised for training the feyenoord players too hard and was blamed for their slow start.

Whitey Grandad Posted 16 August, 2014 Share Posted 16 August, 2014 It was you who said the smaller teams worked us out! The facts are that they didn't, we won 12 in 20 against the bottom ten, we won 3 in 18 against the top 10. It's pretty clear where the vast majority of our points came from last season. And our defeat against villa was due to individuals errors and the calamity keeper than our tactics being found out. I said smaller, not lower than us in the table and by smaller, I didn't mean smaller than us, just smaller than the big five. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoPints Posted 16 August, 2014 Share Posted 16 August, 2014 I said smaller, not lower than us in the table and by smaller, I didn't mean smaller than us, just smaller than the big five. There should be some sort of glossary thread attached to this forum to define these subjective terms, i.e. "Lower means a team finishing below Saints in any given season" "Smaller means a team not finishing in the top 5 of the Premier League" "STFU means can you be quiet please" "WTF means I don't know what that means" Please feel free to add your own.

Good idea. Sometimes I'm convinced none of us is speaking (writing) the same language. People's interpretation of what they read is moulded by their own preconceptions. It's a good thing we're all different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSAINT Posted 25 October, 2017 Share Posted 25 October, 2017 Assuming this is accurate, quite an interesting stat: @MC_of_A: Premier League pressing stats, as mentioned on @DoublePivotPod. Liverpool no longer leading the way. (Were #1 by a good margin last year). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuncanRG Posted 25 October, 2017 Share Posted 25 October, 2017 I'd be interested to see our rate in the Pochettino season, or at that style's peak with Spurs/Liverpool. Subjectively it seems to me that no one's really eating teams like Pochettino did in his first few seasons in England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
