Superb second half very poor first half. I think Ralph is a good fit for Southampton but got it wrong tonight as it should have been a big confidence booster in terms of going 3rd before tomorrow's games. I think that he should have started Ryan at left back and Cedric at right back and if Danso were to play it would be in place of Vestergard. Moving players around in our weakest zone is offering the opposition a great oppurtunity to exploit that weakness and in the overall picture reduce the confidence of other players on the field (poor performance in the first half) . Compare it to other businesses/ team organisations you would stay with what a person is trained/ eperienced to do e. g. If you are a general builder but trained in bricklaying it would be best to leave you to brick laying instead of carpentry your team would then have solid confidence in you knowing that is your best trade/ position I know I sound negative but believe we will do fine but just need to stick with our best team in its best positions.

Let’s be honest he try’s to play players out of position
This has 2 effects and they’re either a positive or a negative
Tonight it was a negative if he plays to many players out of position we will struggle
We controlled 75% of this game and got hit in the break
And punished
We just don’t have the players capable to do the job In Defence
Our defence at times is school boy
We can’t score struggle to defend so its a impossible job.

A disappointing result, but hat’s off to Eddie Howe the South Coast’s Chess Master who has check-mated Ralph On the night with his team selection and astute acquisitions and must surely be a top candidate as a futureEngland manager. However Ralph is still travelling in the right direction and with a few more Pawns exchanged for more Cutting Edge in the January market we will climb back up. However it must be a consolation for Ralph to know he only has to be good at Draughts to beat the Skates on Tuesday night! KOM.

I think the result doesn't reflect well on the performance. Bournemouth were clinical. At the same time they looked dangerous in the first half getting in between Danso and Bednarak on the right side. First goal was from a corner, we zonally marked allowing Ake to attack the ball. For the second goal no one tracked Solanke or Wilson. Third goal was just embarrassing.

My main frustration was the amount of times we were just shooting on sight. Everytime Redmond, Boufal or JWP had the ball outside the box they were just shooting and not opting to work the ball into the box. We had 25 attempts but how many were from inside the box from an opportunity that we had worked?

I would say our second half performance warranted a draw. I think everyone had a good game. Romeu has been superb this season, Boufal and Cedric were 2 players we had out on loan last season were probably 2 of the best players yesterday.

It may be time for SFC to contact Burnley’s Sean Dyche requesting assistance by way of a video detailing how to organise a successful defence. It’s pretty clear that Vestergaard would not feature on current form who in fact would struggle to be selected for most Championship League teams. A class CB. is now an urgent pre-requisite for continued Premiership status. KOM.
