Saints coach: Blackburn have been very unlucky recently, we should have won the past 5 games
6686 Sports October 25th Round 12 of the British Championship, Blackburn vs Southampton. Before the game, Southampton coach Steele said, "The opponent Blackburn has been very unlucky recently, and its situation is quite similar to his own team."
Both teams suffered defeats in midweek, putting both coaches under a certain amount of pressure. Blackburn have yet to win their first win at Ewood Park at home this season, and Southampton, a relegated team, is currently only ranked 18th, far below outside expectations.
Steele has always believed that the team's performance was better than the actual results, and believes that Blackburn is also facing the same dilemma. "I think we should have won the past five games. You never think that the game can be passed easily because it never happened. What do you think of Blackburn? I think they are extremely unlucky too, and the statistics are very similar to us."
"Blackburn has played quite well. They have changed their formation in the last few games, and they have changed their formation in the game against Sheffield United. Adjustments have been made. The situation looks very similar to ours. They have good players and excellent coaches, and they may be as unlucky as we are. "
As for the team's injuries, Steele revealed, "Tom is indeed unwell, Robinson and Zander will go with the team, and we will observe their specific conditions and feelings. Wellington was hit in the knee and had some tension in the medial ligament. Although he participated in the practice, he was not completely fine."
