Saint_clark Posted September 12 Posted September 12 They're literally tripling up on Scienza when the ball goes to him - that means there must be a free Saints man somewhere else, we need to be utilising that. 1

Saint_clark Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Good move from Saints, can't help but feel Leo should have gone out left to Larin.
OttawaSaint Posted September 12 Posted September 12 (edited) Good move. Good hit by Masuki. Saved! Edited September 12 by OttawaSaint
JohnnyShearer2.0 Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Bristol have come out storming. Like Watford. Surely they can't keep this pace up. Saints need to calm it down, been a couple of good breaks in the last two minutes.
Saint NL Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Looking much better in the last 5 mins after a slow start
goodymatt Posted September 12 Posted September 12 It’s notable compared to Swansea that they hold off their initial press until we get closer to the middle third. Then press us like mad when we have played that ball forward.
Saint_clark Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Slow starts don't worry me anymore with Saints. We always seem to grow into the game. 4
Saint_clark Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Downes isn't getting forward as much this game, not sure if that's due to the knock he took earlier or a tactical decision from something we've identified in their midfield.

He needed time in league 1 to ignite his career, and we weren't in league 1. He wasn't going to play for us last year, and had we gone up, he wouldn't have played for is this year. 3

Identified? I would be amazed if the players have not seen it, they have been all over us

But of a question as to why we didn’t give him a new contract and loan him - aware that is subject to the player agreeing

I think given his injury we might have been hesitant to extend. Wrong call in hindsight.

Sir Ralph Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Just now, Lighthouse said: Better than Long smashing his wood, TBF. Straight red that. Ungentlemanly conduct
Saint NL Posted September 12 Posted September 12 This ref can't make his mind up whether he wants to call everything or nothing
obelisk Posted September 12 Posted September 12 It's noticeable that opposition teams have decided to go in hard on Leo. Here's another ref doing nothing about it.
Saint_clark Posted September 12 Posted September 12 Looked like Leo got hurt throwing himself down to try and win a foul there 🤦🏼♂️
