vectraman Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 I'd be annoyed if my Under 13's passed across our own box like Adams did. What on earth was he thinking, that really is an elementary mistake.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Adams with a terrible non-pass. Armstrong caught ball watching again and not tracking his man. Small margins...they are just much better than us. There’s no point over-analysing this. Just keep the fucking score below 5-1 Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igsey Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Don't get the criticism for McCarthy (apart from the non-pen) or Salisu - we're playing against some of the best players in the world, doesn't mean our players are suddenly "not good enough". Let's not kid ourselves that Forster would have saved any of their goals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 There’s just no robustness. No solidity. Everywhere there are loose passes and the prospect of losing the ball too easily. And then the house of cards fall with a puff of wind. It’s at the manager’s door. Needs coaching. Tactics. Strength. Every week the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerx16 Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 So many expert experienced PL managers on here, who have spent all season at the training ground building up their superlative knowledge of each and every member of the first team squad. What does Ralph know, bloody amateur and completely out of his depth. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BotleySaint Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Game is as expected. Top team has the most possession, chances etc. And goals. We've put in a good effort and scored but you've got to be realistic. Their budget is ginormous. Ours is pocket money in comparison. Hopefully they'll ease off second half with a lot of games coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Duckhunter Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Absolutely no last ditch defending, no chucking their bodies in the way, no tackles flying in, absolutely zero metal toughness yet again.

SNSUN Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 I can’t watch the second half so if we miraculously draw 3-3 or even win then it’s my doing. You can’t make mistakes against a City team on this form. Now make subs, put players where they should be, and go for it. Anything less than 5 goals for City tonight would be a respectable result. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micky Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Time to switch off, players walking on the edge of our own box. Another tonking coming up unless Ralph sorts this out. Defend like fuck, get out at 3 with some confidence and respect intact and move on. Really can't be done with another embarrasment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddeer Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Played well but sadly that huge blunder from Adams changed the course of the game. City look as though they have another gear so let's hope they go easy on us second half. Generally pleased with our play and we did cause them problems.

JRM Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 Ralph is just using this game to experiment and try out a few things in case needed this season, Bertrand out of position a few times at right back, Stephens in the middle. McCarthy all over the place, should have been a pen to City and a sending off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BotleySaint Posted 10 March, 2021 Share Posted 10 March, 2021 (edited) I just keep thinking of that Wolves game the other night. They had City at 1-1 with 10 mins to go and ended up being thrashed 4-1. And Wolves are a better team than us. At least we aren't hanging on false hope Edited 10 March, 2021 by BotleySaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
