Losing the ball on the halfway line, when your defence is in place, shouldn't lead to a simple tap in within one pass. Defence is dreaming.

MrBored Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Defenders thinking they are better than they actually are and not doing the basics. The first goal was clown school stuff. I am not a Kane fan but he did work hard and deserved his goal. We have a real problem when we are asked to dictate play. Much more suited for playing away and letting a team come onto us.

We cannot play against a big strong team who just want to play long balls They have won both games 6 points SO FAR they have taken off of us.

Havana Saint Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 4 MASSIVE games in December now. We're going to be mixing it with the crap if we continually fail to win at home. Johnny B and south inch 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Poor stuff. Looked a bit complacent. First half set up looked strange & we created very little. I was looking forward to a lineup of Spoony ,Kane & May. Spoony & May were allover the place. I thought Tommy was back in charge as we passed the midfield by & Zander just kept punting the ball up the park. Is it because they think Kane is a target man. Livi did what Livi do,disrupt play,foul,fain injury ,dive & waste time. Can't believe we had Muzz ,Craig & Conway on the bench & he played Bryson who wandered about like a Sunday afternoon & never looked interested.

He was still on his 6 yard line should have out quicker give the player a decision to make He should have been on his 6 yard line at the start of the move not at the end of it..

THE LARK SAINT Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Ach Well the record had to end sometime!Livingston the 2020 Hamilton. We were average at best today.Unlike last week where it was difficult to rule players out of MOM today is difficult to rule any players IN McCann Bryson and May particularly poor for me As I've stated elsewhere I blame May for 2 goal Zander pulled off a great save to keep it 2.1 and Kane scored out unlucky with effort that shaved the bar The only 2 players with pass marks for me in a fairly rotten performance Onwards and upwards.

Losing the ball on the halfway line shouldn't be an issue. Our two CMs being spread apart and both ahead of the ball, one CB running forward when we didn't have secure possession, one CB watching as a striker stands 5 yards to his left unmarked, and the 3rd CB allowing a striker to run off him unopposed into a huge area of space as again, he's more interested in getting forward, are far bigger issues. If you're going to concede every time you lose possession halfway up the park then you're ****ed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Huge game today. Win & we are top 6 lose & we are in the shit. What do Saints do,come out with no intent. Didn't play with any width. Spoony & May all over the place. What happened to our overlapping wing backs. Didn't see them til last 10 mins. Midfield posted missing. Looks like it was a mistake ,Kerr for Rooney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Craig or Muzz had been playing the defence would have had cover. We lose goals at set pieces but never score at set pieces & we have decent sized players in our team. Ball came off the back of the guys head & Kane's comes off the bar. Fine margined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linky Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 A performance more like earlier in the season. We were still the better team, but just can't make anything out of it. We played some ok stuff, but concede soft goals. We actually missed Conway, and I'm not sure Kane & May really works. In a sense, it's the same old Saints - if we're up against a big team away from home, we can pull off an amazing performance, if we just need to do the simple stuff at home against a team we should be beating, then we can't manage it.

akuram Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Chris Kane taken off was a big mistake as was our best player up front. The two who came on didn’t help as they hardly had a kick. Poor game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted December 12, 2020 Report Share Posted December 12, 2020 Melamed & Hendry did nothing when they came on & Callum not impressed in the interview. Think he has to look at himself for team selection & subs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
