Saint Charlie Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Second half dross so far. Not enough in central midfield. Would like to see Reed be slightly more ambitious with his passing, too safe at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Convict Colony Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 There just doesn't seem to be much urgency at all and I think we know what Reed/JWP in CM looks like now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 He already has a contracted job from Jan to June on a players wage. Why give that up and drop to a coaches salary. Plus Saints already have a number of keeper coaches Watson, Bartram & Flood. He might not have been offered a coaching role yet. Does he even have his coaching badges?

DrunkenSaint Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Oh, Mr anti-Davis crawls out of his hole, still with his eyes wide shut. He speaks the truth though, when your playing with 2 defensive midfielders the 3rd midfielder in the 3 man midfield must support the striker! It happened a few times the other night where a few pull backs from Soares went to around the penalty spot area, no-one was running in from midfield into that position and that is what Davis should be doing.

Batman Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Dire game of football. Expected I guess Mane looks as good on the wing as he does as a lone striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shurlock Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Lot of balls hung up there which Mane has no chance of winning (would have liked to see Jrod go up top).

Yorkshire Saint Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Juanmi looks tidy enough. Espanyol are a dirty bunch although that hard tackle on jay will be good for him. Chasing a game like this might be good for us in terms of experience of breaking a foreign team down who are holding a lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angelman Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Not really following this, especially as had too much to drink at lunch and the sun has zapped me, but aren't defeats (or even draws) more useful than victories in these sort of games?

VectisSaint Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 Do think we need that CB in soon though, and another CM. Biggest thing for me is Koeman knowing his best team, or at least the majority of it. Juanmi, Rodriguez, Tadic, JWP, Davis all seem like they might be in and out for a while which doesn't make it easy. Intetesting, I think its pretty easy to see Ron's team with what we have at present - Stek, Soares, Fonte, Yoshida, Targett, Wanyama, Classie, Davis, Pelle, Mane, Tadic. We will sign CB to be ahead of Yoshi and of course Bertrand comes back in when fit, but can't see beyond this yet. JRod will be pushing but think Ron is still a little anxious to make sure he is OK. Good to have option of Juanmi and JRod, and also JWP as backup in MF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 bit of a 'meh' game. as expected really mish mash team throughout.

Saint Charlie Posted 2 August, 2015 Share Posted 2 August, 2015 CB and importantly a CM with a bit of power and presence in and we are well set for a good season. Martina looks adequate enough for a backup full back (certainly better than Maya out there) and Juanmi should develop into a class player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
