I dont understand it either, so we can assume it is 100% Baz.
Right.
Stop this meltdown bollocks.
Stop this worst game shit.
Some of us watched us play Leicester once before
Our defending was so bad, Shilton scored
In a 1-5 win for the Foxes.
Didnâ kill us then and wonâ now
Shit link fail sorry
100% Baz.
Iâm with you on the main thrust of your post, and I need to say that I havenât seen any of the game, but on selection, I can see both sides.
I feel that if weâd lost to Leicester whilst conceding 4 with a fit Cedric and Lemina on the bench, Barry and New Yorkie Saint would have lost their shit in an even more knee-jerkingly embarrassing way. I might even have lost it a bit myself.
I mean, when I saw this I thought, yep, thatâs a good enough side to compete against LeicesterâŚ
âŚwhen the side proved to me that it wasnât good enough, I blamed the players and not the coach or his selection.
As for formation, weâve discussed this down the pub and I canât help but agree that any 3 of our CBs and 2 excellent CMs would make us a formidable team to break down and give us the ability to give Boufal/Tadic/Redmond a defence-worrying free role. It is a no-brainer and when weâve played it we look solid.
But a) itâs not the Southampton way and b) playing 3 at the back has a deflating effect on Les Reedâs egoâs erection.
