Match Day Thread vs Stoke (A)

[InBiscanWeTrust]

Firm just had a **** last touch... Or it's a tap in for 2-0

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

He got into the box which is possible - something we rarely see.

Yes he's done quite well. The game suits him.

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

Good work by Firmino but a poor touch lets him down!

Bad touch. .. correct press.

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

Ibe!!!!

Top assist from Allen

Allen assist

FFS

Benteke put him off

 

[Solid Air]

Good Lord Lallana is frustrating.

I know the new years honours are a joke but are you sure Lallana became not just a Lord but a good one.
He hasn't mastered being a good footballer yet so it seems a bit of a stretch

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

We've had a lot of joy down both flanks. Stoke don't double up.

I'd be looking for more cutbacks

 

[Jimmy Squarefoot]

Benteke put him off

Considering Firmino created his own chance, I'll let him off.

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

Top skill from Lallana... Cruyf turn had defender on toast, if I've had come in and not stay wide he has a simple header.

His hair is Godly to be fair.

 

[Diego]

Yep, and he told Coutinho to start trusting his team mates. [HASHTAG]#Coindicence[/HASHTAG]

Probably told him to stop taking pot shots from 30 yards when other players are in a better position and better at it, just common sense football stuff really. Coutinho shows little intelligence most of the time.

I thought he held onto it for too long at first but he did well in the end.

Yeah I know mate. [HASHTAG]#coincidence[/HASHTAG] ...

Lack of options in the middle I think..

 

[Magic Ted]

Allen and Can have been immense in the middle, with Lucas when he was there too.

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

He did hold it too long. He had a 1-2 on there.

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

Game awareness now 43 mins. Sit in and control now

 

[Milk not bear jizz]

Allen and Can have been immense in the middle, with Lucas when he was there too.

So the trick is to play 0 strikers and 3 holding midfielders.

 

[Solid Air]

poor by Firm should have been able to feed Can easily

 

[moreinjuredthanowen]

So the trick is to play 0 strikers and 3 holding midfielders.

The trick is to play sides who leave lots of space and don't track back.

Our closing down has been far better with a 433 than 4231.
