Glitched as hell though, all the streams are tonight

Thank you 🙂

[Saint Scott]

Akachukwu has looked really good in the middle so far. 

Dobbin having a bit of a stinker

[Saint Fan CaM]

Looks like we’re in Jack Stephens full and boring pass mode now.

[bangkoksaint]

I genuinely fear that Bragg is just a Smallbone clone

[St Chalet]

Great clearance by Bree

[PerthshireSaint]

Brie ! Nice and runny 

[captainchris]

Who scouted Dobin ? I could do his job !

[tdmickey3]

All a bit like a over friendly friendly 

[trousers]

Lol

[Suhari]

Bollix.

[Toussaint]

Felt that was coming, way too lethargic again. 

[pingpong]

Flappy flappy....

[SNSUN]

God we need signings.

[Jack]

Wood has got to be so much stronger there. Fucking attack it 

[hypochondriac]

Hmm. Mistake from Peretz there.

[coalman]

Not a great jump by Peretz there.

[bangkoksaint]

Poor goalkeeping 

[tdmickey3]

Unmarked

It’s like a shitty training game. 

[St Chalet]

I really rate Peretz, but that goal is on him.

[Saint NL]

I fear we aren't going to see many clean sheets this season

[Colinjb]

Was that Dobbin on the floor, not standing up to the young striker?

Nope, Wood. 

He's got to do better then that.

Shit goal

[AlexLaw76]

How did wood end up down there?

[captainchris]

That came from Dobin losing the ball again! 

[SouSaint]

Really poor goalkeeping that. 

[Hawkswood]

Shame that. Weve been quite decent 

[Gloucester Saint]

Stephens and others marking fresh air again. Peretz bit of a flap.

Has felt pre-season ish. Didn’t know Piroe had joined West Ham. 

Bragg more physicality than Smallbone but less offensive threat. Welington and Bree steady, Dobbin absolute crap again.

[Toussaint]

I’m not sure what Dobbin is all about. At the moment I’d rather have Archer on. 

[tdmickey3]

Plod plod plod

[Mr X]

Defending so far this season has been truly shocking 

[woodsaint1]

We're never keeping a clean sheet as long as Stephens and Wood are playing CB together. Not good enough

[coalman]

Stephens does his best to give away a penalty there.

[hypochondriac]

Stephens very lucky there for me. That was a penalty.

We would want that given

Well, he is utter shite so no shock really 

[AlexLaw76]

we are slowly morphing into a side where the CBs touch the ball the most

Yep... Looking at the replay, he was still interacting with his defence as the corner was taken, and therefore his concentration on the ball was all over the place. 

[Harry_SFC]

Fuck me. We desperately need 2 new CBs

[hypochondriac]

Indeed. If Archer was the new signing and not Dobbin and you'd looked at both their performances, you'd be calling for Archer to play.

[tdmickey3]

Go straight to penalties, save the boredom for all

[Mr X]

Not sure he'd be a starter in many teams, even in the championship 

[St Chalet]

We need 1-2 CB's and another #8 or it will be a long season.

I don’t think we have been particularly good, very slow. Considering the quality of the opposition I’d say it’s pretty poor. 

[Jack]

Some really promising spells, also far too keen to go backwards whenever there’s a break on and let them reset. Bragg going all the way back to Peretz for no reason whatsoever when we’re in their half, does my head in. Very weak from Wood and a flap from Peretz for their goal as well, we’ve got a lot to improve in defensively

Looked like he was pushed in the back to me

[saint michael]

Once agin this looks like a Martin performance

He’s been really, really poor so far for a bloke who had a good loan spell at PNE last season. Given it away like a Rotary Club Santa, not quick, doesn’t take players on and not seen much positional awareness.

Whatever his best position is, Tonda hasn’t found it. In the stand or out on loan is the best option until/if we find it.

Romeo looks a miles better footballer and was already on the books. If Dobbin was meant to be the Azaz rotation option, Finn will be playing a lot of minutes again.

Leo at least has looked a bit sharper.

Yep, but will it happen?
