This sounds poor.

Edozie mentioned for the first time on the radio. My tongue in cheek “playing with ten men” joke sounds accurate.

Yeah he's not been involved at all. Can't even work out where he's supposed to be playing because Manning seems to be playing further forward than him.

[Obstacle1]

We seem to be going long constantly, bypassing the midfield. Matsuki and edozie have been completely anonymous as a result

Mane had much longer 

Half an hour?

Pelle had to wait until his home debut for flak.

Abbott has looked bad though.

playing the long ball alot

 

On the plus side at least we have someone who can play a decent long ball 

[whelk]

Get Leo on

The decision to let Robinson go and keep Edozie is baffling. 

Robinson is getting much needed experience, I think the decision shows that we seem him as a long term option and Edozie as someone we just need as squad filler for the championship.

[obelisk]

Peretz saves. Norwich really should have scored.

[Saint NL]

Good save Peretz. Big open space there

[Disco Stu]

We already look like we're missing Downes.

Make us feel like dancing.

Ah, you meant Scienza.

Not sure best game to have his first minutes. 

[Jack]

Larin on at HT surely. It’s not sticking in their half at all 

[saint michael]

Far too open again at the back. Positioning is awful  as they stand and watch the ball go past them.

I’d say 25 minutes into his debut, away from home in not his favourite position, is probably a little early to be saying that.

He was bought in for CB and RB so you cannot say he is out of position. He has also only had senior appearances at RB.

No spatial awareness, no pace and been turned inside out by their winger, early yellow. He needs pulling at HT otherwise we'll end up down to 10 again

Edozie off for Larin/Mubama. Move Dobbin out to the left. 

[RedArmy]

Bit too casual from Azaz. Great ball from Abbot

[Suhari]

Good cross from Abbott.

[obelisk]

I hope the plan isn't to just rely on winning every home game.

[Saint NL]

Decent cross from Abbott

Dobbin was rank there though and PNE fans say he was there for them. Has to be a 10 or shadow striker. 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Why was that shirt pull on Jander not worthy of a card?

Sad but true.

 

 

[whelk]

Abbott’s crossing is some of the best I have seen ever seen

[Saint_clark]

Edozies starting position is far too deep. Needs to be receiving the ball closer to their defence if not beyond it.

Shadow footballer so far.

He can’t be worse than Edozie and we need to find somewhere he can get minutes because Azaz is too good to drop and he seems to have an engine that lasts for days. 

[obelisk]

Abbott looks better as a winger getting crosses in

[Gloucester Saint]

Lincoln have two sent off in first 23 mins v West Ham.

[Turkish]

These are the sort of games where we miss Double D up top

Wtf is happening to Lincoln? Two players sent off already 🤣

He’s the blonde Darjo Srna.

[macca155]

Great cross from JWP, someone should have been on that.

[Saint NL]

The lack of a real centre forward was clear then. Good cross from jwp and no one is there 

[saintant]

When did we take Dobbin off?

[RedArmy]

All fart and no shit with this front 3. 

[Saint NL]

We seem to have an extra man on the left. Every time the ball is there we have a spare man

[Gloucester Saint]

Or when was he ever on?

[Mr X]

Just now, RedArmy said:

Probably vice versa! 

[sandwichsaint]

Tall Paul would have gobbled that up.

[Sheaf Saint]

Edozie finally does something remotely useful.

In the 42nd minute 😐

[SNSUN]

Some decent play Saints last couple of minutes but we need to make it count. Still disjointed in attack.

Plenty of shit tbf 🫣

Matsuki FFS needed to pass that

#memoriesofAlpine with that saying.

Stacy Solomon would have had a comfortable half v Edozie so far let alone Jack Stacey.

[Colinjb]

"I don't know why he didn't thread that into the path of Edozie..."

He's seen him shoot.

[Sheaf Saint]

Poor choice from Matsuki.

I don't remember Dion Dublin ever playing for us? 🤔
