Huddersfield Town 1 v 1 Southampton EFL League One Saturday, 25th November 2023 Kick-off 15:00 |
TimSaint added 17:22 - Nov 25 Disappointing once again. When we are on top and comfortable, why sit back for the last 15-20 mins and try to keep a narrow lead. We had enough chances to kill the game off. We also had warnings and near misses from Hudd towards the end, but kept on inviting their pressure, so the inevitable happened. Very Naive. Edozie should have cut out or closed down the cross/shot and Baz should have done better. Yes we continue our 9 game unbeaten run, but today was very much 2 points dropped and a missed opportunity to move into 3rd place. SaintPaulVW added 17:50 - Nov 25 Objectively I can never be that disappointed with a draw away from home. Subjectively, it was a bit of a shame as we had played well in the first half but let the 'terriers' - clue was in the name, lol, back into it. Bazunu is great sometimes, comes out well to snuff out long balls, great off the ball - his movement gives the option of a return ball but I sort of feel he should have done slightly better on the goal. Smallbone seems to really fade in the second half as well. Today, I also feel the subs may have weakened the side rather than improving it. Still a point in the bag. COYR I_would added 17:53 - Nov 25 This manager is still not learning that we can't sit on a one goal lead and try and defend for 60+ minutes. It's ridiculous as we were always going to get caught out especially as the defending was so criminally lackadaisical. We didn't acquit ourselves very well today and there wasn't a single player who had a good game. We need a new manager with grit who can fire a rocket up their lazy arses. codge added 18:26 - Nov 25 Seems like a report that seems to be a tad bit repetitive as we can never get off this second half thinking that we don’t need to keep attacking instead of tippy tippy crap around.Surely the manager doesn’t tell them at halftime to sit back on a one goal lead or do they just decide there that good that they can defend one goal,because we’re not. Block8 added 20:42 - Nov 25 Played keep ball most of first half with very little penetration. Well worked goal to complete the half. Second half they pushed up onto our midfield and we couldn't cope. Reverted to sideways and backwards, continually giving possession away and just faded from the game totally. Disappointing display, in all honesty we need a plan B for when the space in midfield is compressed as it's something that we struggle to handle! Bowlercow added 21:26 - Nov 25 Does RM give them to much information at half time? They just appear to be thinking of other things for the first 15 minutes of every second half An away point is always welcome but it is an opportunity missed On the plus side we are a point nearer Ipswich Alehouse added 21:26 - Nov 25 Complete lack of ambition on the ball in the second half left us vulnerable to an equaliser. Smallbone was the biggest culprit, always passing the ball the way he was facing, invariably backwards. Even when in plenty of space he never took the ball on the half turn and moved it forwards. We should have had either Stewart or Adams on from the start. codge added 14:04 - Nov 26 Seems like a report that seems to be a tad bit repetitive as we can never get off this second half thinking that we don’t need to keep attacking instead of tippy tippy crap around.Surely the manager doesn’t tell them at halftime to sit back on a one goal lead or do they just decide there that good that they can defend one goal,because we’re not.
