Hafnia Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Why the fuck was that so testy??? Was key that we got over the line - a draw would have knocked the stuffing out of us. Defence needs sorting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Phew! Tough 3 points to get that, in the way that Southampton went about it. How they finished without a red I've no idea. We still have an issue to address...their goal was pathetic by us. How can their main striker be stood in the middle of the 6 yard box at a corner and no one even come close to marking him? That's a problem. Number of good performances out there. Some nice football. Nice ideas. Onwards we go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We better spend a lot of time on the training pitch getting it right this week. chicagoblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Nice to see us still trying to go forward when just a goal up rather than sitting back and inviting Southampton to come forward; attack is the best form of defence, we finally seem to have a manager who realises this. markjazzbassist and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Mina will be a help from set peices. Even brands has said we will lose some points early on due to signing players so late.

Romey 1878 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 First half we couldn’t have been any more comfortable, it was a bit of a stroll tbh, really impressed with all aspects of our game. Second half... well, I’m still waiting for it to begin for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Kanchelskis Jnr summed it up for me "Apart from Richarlison, all the players on the field were there under Big Sam, yet the difference in play now is staggering! The players are positive, look for the spaces and are quick to attack! A pleasure to watch and a breath of fresh air. Marco is really showing his worth" Although we didn't look like world beaters it's staggering the effect a decent man manager can have on a side with good staff around them Matt, nutmegwolf203, Romey 1878 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finn balor Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 We are deffo a work in progress.

Romey 1878 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Mario ( ) Silva once again showing how inept Lardiola is. Almost the same players as fat head had available and yet we’ve gone from playing dour, negative, play not to lose football, to positive, quick, attacking football. Its not been perfect by any means, but it just goes to show what a difference the manager can make to players.

Btay Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Period at the end of the game, maybe from 70th-80th - our attack was so crisp and fast. Quick balls around the corner, always moving the ball. Definitely some encouraging signs. Keep this momentum going! nutmegwolf203 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 With our front 4 of Cenk, Richarlison, Siggy, Walcott we will score many, goals this season. With a back up of Bernard, Lookman, Gomes and DCL added to the above we will score many, many goals this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of my point, we have a front 4 and a back up that are interchangeable. Granted Lookman and DCL are young, but they have proved capable of playing at the highest level, and with potential to get better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 From the highlights I have seen Siggy was pretty key in everything we did going forward which is good to see. Surprised more people dont consider the Pickford challenge a sending off. Wins the ball but the follow through studs the attacking in the back. I think there was a challenge like that last week wasnt there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
