Tom tried Baah as a striker but gave up on the experiment Worth giving it a try tho, but depends if Baah is fit enough yet for a full game after his injuries Irankunda is a must start and free kick expert
Thoroughly enjoyable game yesterday, got a point more than I thought we would. Two teams playing decent football, and a third team letting them. If the execution isn't perfect yet, we are beginning to see a better brand of football from that which we've witnessed in quite a few seasons. And, more importantly, Plan A wasn't quite coming off, but Plan B almost won it. Steps in the right direction,
I noticed some fans were trying to match Irankunda to the Igahalo song but I think a version of the Men at Work song would be better starting off with He comes from a land down under and when he scores he brings on thunder
What’s your report on the ref, Fez? I thought he was very good. No home bias, no away bias, no trying to make the game all about him - take note, Mr Steve Martin.
It was worth trying and I think a Premier League side might have the depth to persevere. As a counter-attacking side’s striker, can you imagine him shrugging off defenders if he made those runs through the middle rather than down the wing? The stuff of centre-back nightmares!
Live, I thought it was a very well-taken free-kick. On here, as with the Swansea one, you realise the precision and technical excellence. Then you see he can do this: And all of this: Boring, boring Watford. Not much to that celebration either. I do that when I’ve done the hoovering.
He knows where the goal is and has power and accuracy, I hope he does not injure himself doing all the cart wheels - I would get injured doing the hoovering...
"Two teams playing decent football, and a third team letting them." Apart from high centre of gravity issues with several Southampton players, no other comment. Another very good middle, I thought, and really showed up how bad the officiating was at Charlton!
Hey Fez, I thought that there were a few fouls missed on Luca, by both the centre halves...maybe I have hornet-tinted glasses on, but it did seem that they were holding a little bit too much, and as for the free kick that was given to their keeper down the Vic Road end, as an ex-goalkeeper myself, i would have been embarrassed. overall though a decent showing, but I felt we should have had a few free-kicks for fouls on Luca
