Comment | Saints At Liverpool The Verdict
at 01:32:29
The board could do better. I believe we can all agree on that. Maybe we could have better players. How many strong players WANT to come here? We are a stepping stone club. Players come here to get playing time and exposure so that they can get a contract with a “bigger clubâ€.
In my opinion, the issue on Saturday (and for most of the season) is heart and character. Outside of Hojbjerg, Ings and McCarthy, who is playing with heart? Bertrand, the captain, does not demonstrate leadership or passion. He quits on the game. Redmond shows promise, but fails to play defense. Cedric continually gets burned. Hoedt and Westergaard make poor decisions.
This team does not have the character or drive to win. Once a goal is scored against them, their body language and attitude is poor.
First step, change the captain. I have long been a fan of Bertrand. Until early last season. Award this to someone passionate and with leadership skills. Allow players with drive to start. Award academy players with passion. If those do not prove successful, change the manager.
We need heart. We need character. We need skill. Only one of those can be purchased. If the players cared as much as the supporters, we would be top 10 year in, year out. |
