Brizzle Jordan Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 #SaintsFC side to face Bristol City: Davis, Clyne, Fonte, Hooiveld, Fox, Ward-Prowse, Schneiderlin, Lallana, Puncheon, Rodriguez, Lambert. 2 players short of their strongest i'd say. Missing Cork and Guly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Am A Cider Drinker Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 What's the Southampton team like? Have they put out a strong 'un? #SaintsFC side to face Bristol City: Davis, Clyne, Fonte, Hooiveld, Fox, Ward-Prowse, Schneiderlin, Lallana, Puncheon, Rodriguez, Lambert. Not the weakest of sides.... internet is a bit slow sorry didnt see the earlier post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Another good save from saints keeper from Albert, parried for a corner. Morris barking out orders, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCfan Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Lovely stuff down left from Cunningham, Pearson to Albert who let fly from 25 yards, tipped round for corner. Yannick took it, decent. Albert high and wide after a bit of head tennis/defleted shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brizzle Jordan Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Dear Del, I've came to the conclusion we are in a fantastically better position than last season and you have so far worked wonders. However hurry up and get that CB and ST in to make us all very excited.. Thanks, Jordan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJC Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 let him enjoy the match ! :-) Half time, Southampton just better side on whole, City offered very little bar Foster breakaway before formation change. Stead took his goal superbly, bent it with his left into corner from edge. Aside from that, especially at 4-5-1, largely spectator. Skuse looked a little suspect but putting himself about as he does, while Morris shone with 5 man midfield, influence lessened after change in shape. Albert looks like he could have something to offer as second striker if fluidity is seen going forward. Foster has had good half, as has Gerken who has made two smart saves. Saints best chances have both come from poor City passes, one from Nyatanga, one from Skuse. They've looked more fluent side, but score line isnt particularly unfair on chances.

BookEnd Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 The team is shaping up to look very promising indeed albeit we're in pre-season, but that is a very talented Southampton line up we're currently leading against. Lets be fair as it stands we haven't got the most talentest squad in the world but via some shrew additions and getting the squad well drilled and organised Del has done wonders in his short time with us and has made us into a TEAM. Hopefully the performances from pre-season continue to build confidence and we take that into the new season and then who knows? can really see a big push for the top 6... or maybe i'm just a little to optimistic. :tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I BELIEVE Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Being honest, we were outplayed 1st 25 mins, Gerken kept us in it, then the goal out of nothing (great finish) sparked us into life and we looked better side last 15 - looks like changes from saints at HT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry did you say something . . . . 4-4-2, not great deal happened, Southampton largely in control. Edit - Woolford and Wilson on, Cunningham (solid game) & Bolasie (quiet) off.
