Said before kickoff that I hoped Studge would be on the right but suspected Firmino would the one sacrificed again. Disappointing to set the least, Firmino is our best player in the F9 position
Carragher right...TAA as no support...might be young and quick but he can't protect a whole side himself...
On a brighter note my child did a giant steel poo and she named it spongerinho I encourage her to make a name up while she's going Its a creative house this.
Yup. Attacking I see no eagerness to get it wide from us and nobody offering him a ball down the line.
What happened to Ojo ? He is no Mane but he is definitely a better option than sturridge at the moment. I am not bashing Sturridge but it's unfortunate his body is done. In a different team I think he'd flourish
The whole team looks disjointed and thrown together this run of form is getting very worrying to say the least
Take a few risks. They are not playing forward really bar matip at best. I saw several Henderson moments where a bit of forward ball was on and he played safe. We will degenerate into aimless hurried hoofing within 15mins
What is annoying is Southampton only need hold 3 cms so tight there's not 10/15 yards covering them and we still insist on playing the ball in there. Coutinho's not gone wide left once but lallana is lost out there. Makes no sense imo
Surely Not...Hendo touching the ball turning away from goal and passing 3 feet sideways or ten back! I don't believe you lol. Sorry an occasional 30 second wait and an attempt at a diagonal once they've got set defensively...
I saw at least 3 times a straight forward ball was on and he chose the wrong option. But most worryingly he's getting run passed and can't get back... he's not right.
He misses a lot too... we can but hope. The sad thing it's it's not needed to over commit cbs and dcm but we are
