Match Day Thread Saints vs Swansea, Saturday 18th Oct, 12:30

Scienza has been excellent but gives me slight Sulemana vibes in that he does all the hard work and then not the simple ball at the end. Definitely looks the most likely to create something though.

Think Archer has played well. Made some good runs (which are often ignored) and held the ball up well too. His chance was much more difficult than it looked. Basically waist height from that distance and at that pace never easy to control.

Thought we came on strongly towards the end of the half but much of the early stages looked like two average mid table sides imo.

We still look rather shaky defensively too, one moment in particular was awful from Edwards. Luckily Swansea are pretty ****e and have nothing up top.

Overall pretty positive I'd say. Get one and don't sit on it and at least one more will come hopefully.

 

Overall, played well and created a shed load of chances without giving away anything in defence. Can’t complain but wish we had a striker who could score
15 attempts in the first half must be record for us

 

We're going to win 2-0.

 

You know that involves us hitting the net, yes?

 

Right, let's start the 2nd half, how we ended the 1st half.

A real shame we missed out on that summer signing called Luck.

 

Me too.

 

This is the key for me. Start the second half with the intensity we ended the first and we go on to win this.

 

Twice

 

Wood has floored their only threat - good plan!

 

Watching Armstrong try to kick a football hard, towards the goal, is quite excruciating at the moment.

 

It does seem like he is desperate to get any sort of shot off, even if it means just passing it towards the keeper.

 

He’s always been like that, very frustrating on days like today though

 

True. I suppose you don't mind it if he is scoring regularly, but today he is just wasteful.

 

Back to being ****. Great.

 

Adam Idah coming on, that’s a guaranteed goal for them then

 

Need to make some changes, gone very flat

 

Sky are showing the first 20 minutes again?! Oh wait, we are kicking the other way. That's the only difference.

 

Still, stop letting the game drift by and use your ****ing bench.

 

****ing terrible against a **** team.

 

Finally a change. Jay Rob coming on.
