Southampton Away Match Thread

Rubbish. 

 

Lurked for years on here with the odd post. Need to have my say now. 

 

We're shite. 

 

Barnes, nacho, disappointing as usual, maddison trying, tete looks good but can't get round anyone. Just poor all round. 

 

Southampton want it more.

 

We're in a scrap for survival. Get some fresh management team in now to try lift the club. Without this we're down. Brendan and his lips need to get out. Poisoning our club and players. 

 

****. 

 

 

 

Oxynoronic for a winger, no? And that's before you factor in the fact he's been shit

Why play such a high line then? It's a tactical decision. Fine to play a high line if you also press from the front. But we didn't do that. 

 

It made absolutely no sense to change midway through the half the tactic that had us in control. That's on Rodgers. 

We had possession so it’s reasonable for the defence to be high 

but once we lost it with no one in front of the back four there was no move by either CB to drop 10 yards

The first pass out the back needs to be to Madders, the only player who seems to be able to turn with the ball without taking 5 touches. Mendy and KDH just send the ball back to the defence to knock around. Castagne and Riccy offer nothing going forward, no support or attempt to pass the ball forward after it’s taken 10 passes to get to them.

 

Soton, like all the other teams at our level has sussed us out, give us the ball and we’ll mess up passing it out. 
 

Top has ruined this club. 

Sad but true.  The writing has been on the wakk for over a year.

I can't stand Rodgers and actively want him out but he can't be blamed for this group of players having the mental strength of a corpse. Literally, anytime the opposition gets in our half, every single player shits themselves and it all turns to panic. At this point I want all these spineless players gone as much as Rodgers. Full clear our in the summer from board room to pitch. Not a man left in the building except filbert the fox, the birch and the groundsman. Everyone else can get to fck! 

Maybe his constant belittling of the players has induced them into a coma like state.

Rodgers,just swap wingers over this half and see what happens.

Right footed winger running at players on his natural foot and tete who left footed running at players at speed..But Rodgers will stick with his shit tactics.

Hallelujah! Can’t believe they don’t switch! Rodgers out!

The solution isnt to keep buying CBs, defending is 90% coaching 10% quality of player.

Rodgers has been given 7 CBs during his time here.

Faes has proven impossible to coach.

 

He struggles with the basics of playing as CB, look at any of the best CB’s they have a telepathic pairing with their CB partner.

 

As for those 7 CB’s -

 

Evans was quality but is broke.

Amartey is not a CB.

Cags has been off the boil but clearly has personal issues with Rodgers.

Fofana was quality but a rat/petulant kid.

Faes is bang average and that’s being kind.

Souttar looks ok but not sure he’s suited to the high line 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sidepoint, Tete needs to pull his finger out tonight. Been dreadful the past two games.

Oh never mind, he's been just as shite if not worse. Glad he's just a loanee right now.
 

Bring Sharkey back.

Ok after we have brought 10 CBs will the solution be the same, just keep buying new ones and keep the manager?

the thing with faes is the things making him look bad are rodgers instructions. 

 

A stupidly high line… the same one that made us look garbage with soyuncu and evans and fofana. 

 

The forced playing under extreme pressure at the back… no cb wants to do that, i don’t care what you say. Ball playing cbs want it, but in good areas. Nobody wants to be picking a 6/10 completion pass playing from their box and that’s what he’s instructed to do. When it’s not on, he should just be launching it and that’s just not something our guys have license to do. 

 

when man city do this… they have options and there’s always space because sides fear them. but they don’t fear us so fully press and make it too difficult.
