Small bone definitely playing further forward. More of a 4411 with Che, Smallbone, moi and Armstrong all playing in the same space.

Pamplemousse Posted 13 March, 2022 Share Posted 13 March, 2022 Salisu has been immense this season but he's had an utter shocker. Worst centre back performance since Bennett at home to Palace on the first day of the season about 15 years ago? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted 13 March, 2022 Share Posted 13 March, 2022 If Smallbone was in the side to give us more chances to break them down in the final third, it might be the tactic for the second half. Although they'll look for a counter, Watford will be focusing on being compact. We'll need more creative players in there. That said, I'd not mind seeing AA and later Djenepo on there a bit sooner than we saw last time out. Becuase we lacked drive and directness for a lot of that half, and we're going to need to drive at them at some point, and not pass it around in front of them.

LuckyNumber7 Posted 13 March, 2022 Share Posted 13 March, 2022 Get Broja on for Smallbone, we look far too lightweight in attack. Getting vibes of the Burnley home game last season though, 0-2 to 3-2... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vectraman Posted 13 March, 2022 Share Posted 13 March, 2022 5 minutes ago, Saints foreva said: HT. Really poor performance and we're lucky they've only scored two. Big second half needed, get Smallbone off, he just doesn't do anything when he's on the pitch. He really has contributed nothing young Smallbone. Got to get Broja on. We look so sluggish, no runs, all static, not enough pace in the side. Change it please Ralph. Defending has been Tyro league, pissing about at the back, crap balls, poor decisions, Salisu playing like he wants to stay next season - eg crap and no one looking at him will be impressed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BotleySaint Posted 13 March, 2022 Share Posted 13 March, 2022 I've missed the first half. Summary on BBC says: Quote Southampton have been mostly shambolic during that first half. They get their lifeline late on. Southampton, seemingly blinded by Ralph Hasenhuttl’s soccer science, were playing with no clue of how to construct their attacks. They blundered their way through the first 35 minutes, conceding two really poor goals. Is that a fair assessment of what I missed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
