Saints 2-1 Coventry - Match Thread

I only got back to see from 50 mins on. Not lots of momentum, in either exploiting Coventry when they tried to counter, nor in working their defence when they sat back. Redmond coming on was an improvement. But it took a super Armstrong strike to get Saints back into this. I'm not sure they would have been able to without it.

Pretty slow in getting the ball into wide positions IMO. Allows them to shift the extra defender across in good time 

Just slow play in general. When we briefly stopped playing at walking pace we looked almost like a football team.

Must be soul destroying make overlapping runs as a full back.

The lack of invention in the attacking third is worrying.

Yep. Djenepo-Eli-Walcott signings (and a lack of funds to being in better) have not helped. As much as Redmond is hated, he is the best of that group.

This post could've been made any time in the last four years.

We're a counter attacking side. We don't know what to do when the opposition lets us have the ball and asks to be broken down. Nothing new here.
