Jesus wept it was even worse on highlights. Awful. Look at the state of Stewart, lucas, skertl, even Allen's passing g was dirt. They were in so many times. How many times did you see benteke beg for a ball but see our lot looking down at ball or falling over it. It was certainlying a dour match but highlights make us look even worse.
MOTD2 doing save of the season... Mig already has nomination for his one against Everton, but that save from Ighalo today was even better. Fingertip from such close distance to put it from the middle of the goal, out for a corner.
Skertl is ****e. No control of the line all game. But the second and third balls are the killers. We failed to clear on 3 separate occasions in that game leafing to not knew but two half chances each time to them. That's what I mean by clear your ****ing lines. Stewart was I don't know where. The cb's made no attempt to get him in between them in a possession game and he didn't sit in Allen was all over the place e but gave it away constantly. Ibe was wasteful on every single possession he got, rarely if ever did he play it one or two touch... alway hogging til no option but get rid. Ojo was shy, letting it come to him, not sprinting in to close down, not playing g it early. It was very poor fare. We basically score off a route one, quick free and nod down and a goal keeping shocker there.
Hear the commentator say 'Oh what a miss', then furtively, sort of quietly mention 'Actually a good save from Mignolet'. But that's what Migs does. Pity he can't catch a ball on his six yard line.
Dunno. Not really sure due to camera angles how much it was deflected. He's a big man and good shot stopper
Camera from behind the goal shows you exactly how good a save it was... deflected it from the middle of the goal out past the post.
It wasn't even a pass. He closed down the player, blocked the long bal and it squirmed square to Firmino thats not a dig at Ojo btw. Think he's looked encouraging in his few appearances.
