We need to talk about ... throw ins 09:53 - Apr 13 with 1022 viewssaint901

I'm sick and tired of seeing us struggle to throw the ball to a Saints player from our throw in whilst allowing the opposition to stroll around and have the ball thrown to their feet.

One of the many errors last weekend was to allow Chelsea to have the ball from all of their own throw ins and a good proportion of ours.

Further, WTF is Salisu going? His "long" throw is way short of being dangerous and by going out the line to take the throw, the inevitable loss of possession and a quick punt forward by their defenders and he's out of position.

This is coaching 101.

You should never lose the ball from your own throw (barring not controlling the ball) and unless your CB can reach the middle of the goal with a throw, no point in pulling him out of position.

I agree, the throw in's are a mess, but you do have to laugh at the way Salisu prepares for a long throw as if he is going to launch it and barely reaches the penalty box. Teams have got wise to this and know he doesnt have a long throw.

There was an interesting feature recently on Salisu’s throw ins. He does have a long throw on him but deliberately loops it up with the aim of the defence heading it out but us picking up the second ball. There is a method in the madness apparently.

That worked once against Spurs at home, if memory serves.

And not before or since.

Bring back Rory Delap. Not that we actually used him much for long throws 🙄

Poll: If we win a play-off semi at St. Mary’s should there be a pitch invasion?

Master stroke

We thought that we had the answers, It was the questions we had wrong.
Poll: Knowing what we know now, should we have sacked Hasenhüttl?

Yes, it is strange how effective his throws were for Stoke but not for us.
