If you can't score goals then the best you can hope for is 0-0 ie one point. I can't see where the goals will come from.

You need to get balls in the box, be able to attack the keeper and be able to shoot from outside the box. We are not doing any of this

You should apply to be manager

I wonder if we are lacking in a true attacking coach. Koeman no doubt has brilliant knowledge in setting up a defence, but who in our coaching staff is actually able to contribute to the attack from experience? It would certainly explain why we have no plan B sometimes.

This is why bringing back Lickie Rambert would have made sense in my opinion

We def need some attacking options. I reckon Moses would have been a good addition, he's looked like an absolute brute against Newcastle tonight. I think we need to use Juanmi more and we def missed a trick not signing a striker. We are way too one dimensional at the minute.

Loads of players doing ok makes it look like we've missed out. Sinclair, vardy, Austin, etc but I'm sure saints have evaluated the options and for the money we can afford to pay maybe felt they will have better options come January or next summer. I'm sure as professional coaches, team of analysts and common sense they see what we all see , we need a 15 goal a season guy. they'll do the proper background work before they move on a target . van Dijk took 18 months after they identified him as a target. I would rather buy well than have another osvaldo situation. It's going to cost 15 million plus unless they unearth a real hidden Jem. Do admit thought we'd of seen more of juanmi though.

Pelle, Rodriguez, Long, Juanmi, Mane, Seager (Gallgher, out on loan) - I don't think Saints needed a striker in the summer.

They needed players who could provide for the strikers. And they didn't sign a single one, for reasons best known to themselves. They must've been comfortable with not scoring in 29% of games last season.

The club has been heavily focussed on getting our defensive areas sorted out and seeing how the new players a lot in. I'm including Romeu in that too.
Perhaps we soon be looking at a more attacking formation and have one holding midfielder instead of the two we normally play with. And I agree with the other poster that I'd like to see Juanmi given a role somewhere up front so that we have a bit of genuine pace there.

Koeman said we played an attacking formation against West Brom, a 4-1-4-1 I believe. Our best performances have always been as a 4-2-3-1, but right now the attack isn't clicking. The game against Man United is a perfect opportunity for the players to outperform expectation. I would really love to see Juanmi start in place for Rodriguez, let's see what he can do through the middle with Tadic and Mane on the wings.

Think roko see's things different to us, it wasnt very attack minded against wba same as saying our 2nd leg at mityjland was our best performance

Must be a different RoKo who was in charge last season at home against Sunderland! With an attacking coach could have been 20-0! LOL

But then we sold so many goal scorers this summer?!

One step at a time. Replaced 4 in our back five and have concentrated on sorting out teething problems. Getting there with that. With that platform it will not be long before we see the attacking side click into gear.
