Saints giving it away. Not just one or two players but many guilty parties. Disappointing first half.
We've got to keep possession first schad. You can't score if you can't win the midfield battle. I would take off Hammond at Ht for de ridder. 442 with Guly and Connolly up top.
Put the ball in the bloody box. Less than a minute left and we're playing short passes back towards the halfway line!
I know we have Fonte, Lambert and Lallana out. Cardiff must be pissing them selves at the thought of coming down
One more thing that really pissed me off. Why is Fox standing pretty much on are goal line to receive from Kelvin, only to just hoof it up field, Could Kelvin not do that him self
I'd change it to be this in the 2nd half: Davis Richardson Martin Hooveld Fox Holmes Schneiderlin Cork Falque Conolly De Ridder Richardson <---> |Harding Holmes <--> Hammond De Ridder <--> Guly
I'm not sure what Adkins can do substitutions/tactical wise. The midfield really need to calm down and just get a foot on the ball. Falque hasn't really been in the game very much, Cork has been very energetic and needs to make it count. I think Hooiveld has played very well though, Martin looks a little shaky.
Really? We playing 433? Why?! We've played 4222/442 all season I've seen us play. Why would we change this. Need to switch back to our best formation 4222.. edit: I've not been watching just got home wasn't able to make the match
