Right, here’s a thread on our Achilles’ heel - not being able to deal with set-pieces.
Have covered this topic before (last tweet in thread) - it’s still holding us back in huge games.
We offer a free goal to teams if they get it right #SaintsFC

Reasons for this weakness (my opinion):
- Lack of height vs other teams
- Saints know they have aerial weakness, so defend zonally and then play for offside
- Defensive line has lost timing/nerve
- Not enough work is being done to sort it
- Players can’t zonal mark

I’ll start with Sunday. A point was directly lost by conceding this goal.
West Ham use back post runners to make our line drop early, leaving Aguerd to head home.
Saints don’t try to challenge him the air, but the problem is they also don’t catch him offside either #SaintsFC

…yesterday #SaintsFc boss Nathan Jones dug himself a big hole with his words
I’ve been openly saying for weeks I just want him to ‘own’ the job and part of that is I wanted him be big enough to take responsibility for his team and players, because I think that is leadership

But you can’t take responsibility and at the same time still bang on about the past and blame it for current failings
I also said my biggest problem was the lack of identity the #SaintsFc team had after 5 weeks of training in the break - his answer on this yesterday was poor

Manchester City’s 2021/22 accounts covered a season when they won the Premier League for the fourth time in five years (their sixth title in 11 years) and reached the semi-finals of the Champions League and the FA Cup. Some thoughts follow #MCFC
#MCFC chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak noted that it was also the most successful financial year in the club’s history with chief executive Ferran Soriano highlighting that City broke the club records for both revenue and profits.
#MCFC pre-tax profit improved from £5m to £42m, as revenue rose £43m (8%) from £570m to £613m, thanks to recovery from COVID and the return of fans to the stadium, while operating expenses only increased £11m (2%). Profit from player sales was almost unchanged at £68m.
A thread on what I’ve found on Nathan Jones.
Even though it’s difficult not to, please don’t jump to conclusions.
Remember, Sport Republic are looking for hidden gems - he has the potential to be one if we give him a chance #SaintsFC

Jones finished his playing days with a 7-year spell at Yeovil.
During this time, he took his coaching badges, he coached Yeovil ladies, then became men’s player-assistant, and then first-team coach.
This proved his desire to manage #SaintsFC

In advance of football clubs starting to publish their accounts for the 2021/22 season, I thought it might be helpful to share some 2-page financial overviews for each of the Premier League clubs for 2020/21, including a comparison against prior year and a 5-year graphical trend.
These overviews also include Premier League rankings for each of the main financial categories, e.g. which club had the highest profit, loss, revenue, wages, debt, transfer spend, etc in 2020/21.
One caveat with these figures is that revenue was significantly impacted by COVID in 2020/21 with match day reduced to almost zero, as games were played behind closed doors, while some broadcasting income was deferred from 2019/20 for matches played after the accounting close.

When Newcastle United were bought by a consortium led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, the expectation was that #NUFC would splash out on players, due to the enormous wealth of the new owners, but that hasn’t really been the case. So why is the club not spending big?
#NUFC manager Eddie Howe gave this answer: “Financial Fair Play impacts us and will continue to impact us for a number of years. We haven't got the free rein that maybe has been perceived within the media, that we can go and sign who we want and pay extortionate fees and wages.”
Despite the fact that #NUFC new owners had stated that their ambition was to win the Premier League in “five to ten years”, Howe sounded a note of caution, “We’re having to be creative and smart and try and make the right additions within the financial constraints that we have.”
