Yeah that sort of summed up the game, the lino somehow missing a 2 yard clear offside which effectively killed the game was mine tbh.
Liked Davies yesterday. He will grow based on the trust Silva has shown in him. Very young side out yesterday, plus shows that we need time to gel after the disasters both Koeman and Sam have been.
Its only my opinion. I don't like those CBs and I don't like your CMS much either. Its like you've sorted the wide areas and the central areas have gone to pot. Did you ever look like beating Arsenal really? Or are we talking about you getting a 0-0 there?
Keepers do it all the time, keeper clatters attacker andngets a FK. Unless it’s Pickford kicking someone then nobody cares.
If we had a 20 a season striker then yes. DCL showed he has the talent but not composure/experience. A Lukaku would have had 2-3 yesterday. Arsenal had Lacazete and Ab-whoever at £100m and proven scorers....
Went to buy a kids bike... My comment was about your team in general, i didn't make a comment about how well or badly you played yesterday. e.g. keane has bean an unmitigated disaster... or... zouma, immobile. Those are my opinions on your CBS... my opniion on Gueye is formed over the past 2 years, decent but not great and davies based on what i've seen since his debut.... Lewin is lewin.. he is what he is. Hence i asked you if you played well in terms of a 0-0 or if you actually looked like winning it.
Its never easy get a good goalscorer. Once saint lost ings due to our loan arrangement they didn't even turn up Its a pity they are so awful at the back cos that loan could really work for us otherwise.
Keane had a good game yesterday, and Zouma is far from immobile he’s a pacy defender ffs Both Davies and Gueye played well yesterday as well. We bossed the first half and Cech kept the score at 0-0, same story second half until Lacazette scored a peach from a half chance, the lino then sealed the game 2 minutes later. We were good, pinned Arsenal in and did everything but score. A World away from where we where under Fat Sam and Koeman last season. It’ll take a bit of time, and definitely a new central striker for him to get it right, but I’m more than happy with how he’s changed things so far.
tbf to MITO he's not too far wrong. Keane has been a bit of a disaster and he's not suitable for a highline or passing out of the back. He might have been "okay" but he's a dime a dozen defender across the league. Zouma was pacy. Dunno if its his acceleration or his poor reaction (poor guys had some bad injuries) but arnie last week proper mugged him off and whilst he isn't slow he's certainly not "quick". Half your issues is that Silva is getting both his full backs bombing on. Even Pep has stopped that from happening to his City side. Haven't seen enough of Digne or Kenny to comment. DCL is still young but will he ever develop to a top class striker, not for me. Still a massive fan of Sigi. Richarlison i think and have said from ages ago will be a world beater. Theo is functional but really you need someone better than him (maybe even put him up front?). Gueye is solid but unspectacular. Like a Zokora. Big fan of Davies but his young and inconsistent. That about rounds out your team. Mina should hopefully make you guys more solid and i think you need Andre Gomes to come in as he's solid and good on the ball without being spectacular.
Liverpool have spent the same amount as Manchester United since the PL started to win as many PLs as Spurs, Everton and West Brom
