keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted November 20, 2021 What a day. What a change. It was brilliant to be excited and not wanting the game to end. Pressing high up the pitch and not playing Farkeball at the back. For once, we played 45 minutes on the front foot and in the opponents half. Players who had looked anonymous now want the ball and look forward. Well played Josh. We all gave you stick a few games ago but you were my MOTM just on that 2nd half. No more diagonal balls from the back towards Aarons from the Saints because you kept them occupied. DSYA. lets take a trip with DSYA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,518 Posted November 20, 2021 A question here...but when was the last time we've scored 2 goals and both headers?!!! Also Pukki scoring with his head.... a rarity in itself ...and as for Hanley, doesn't he normally aim his headers towards row L? Fantastic. Some team talk at HT.👏👏 By all accounts Rashica, Gilmour (2nd half), and Sargent his best 45. Thanks Dean Smith. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was a brave decision for Smith to make at half time, something we aren't used to, half time subs. It was a brave decision to make, and also a smart decision to start him to demonstrate why Farke was clearly in the right to keep him away from the first team and put to bed any further nonsense that both Farke and his replacement are 'clueless' for not playing him. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, there were a lot of posts on twitter saying Cantwell starting today proved Farke had "no idea what he was doing". There were reasons Farke wasn't using him and he was justified. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robornio 107 Posted November 20, 2021 Great result today. I said to my mate (a Saints fan, sitting over there) that this usually ends 2-1. 😄 That half-time team talk really did the job. If we beat Wolves next week and results go for us, we could be on equal points with Leeds. OTBC!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't mean subs so much as little tactical tweaks based on what he saw in the game. Be interesting to see if Smith is any better in that regard. Play like that in the second half and we're getting stuffed. Fair play, Deano 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,562 Posted November 20, 2021 Obviously what will happen now is that Smith gives his press conference and is then sacked, and we carry on like that with a new manager for each of the remaining 26 games...🤓 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted November 20, 2021 Every game under Farke in the prem we lost once we fell behind, Smith’s first game and we come from 0-1 to win.. coincidence? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am probably too excited but I just thought apart from the goal we were second best first half but the only team in it second half. And he was the change apart from tactics.

Tumbleweed 106 Posted November 20, 2021 Massive result! A bit more confidence, a full week for Smith with the team now, and a teeny glimmer of hope. At least if we still go down looks like it will be with some dignity after all!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
