looked tactically miles's better, much more solid. as you say lack of quality up top is a big issue

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Wed Mar 01, 2023 9:52 am  

Yes most definitely. I just hope Gracia has enough time to improve things there as you can clearly see he's making us much harder to play against. I wish we still had Klich (and i bet Gracia does too) he had a good final ball and a goal threat from outside the box that none of the current midfield do (though i do think Mckennie could score a few when he's up and running fully.

Don`t think we looked troubled at the back and got done by 2 cracking goals.
Unlucky to have the goal disallowed and for Adams pass to get intercepted for their first.
Felt Messlier again was too far off his line again for their first mind.
We are creating plenty of chances and like what`s been said we don`t have that strike power to finish them off.
Rodrigo is a big miss imo.
McKennie does got into good shooting positions but tends to pass the ball instead of aiming for goal.
Likewise Summerville trying to do the fancy stuff to score instead of hitting it first time.
I actually think we might get something out of Chelsea next up.

Agree bud. If we continue to improve i think we will get to safety this year. I think it's only a matter of time until we get better in and around the box. I'm hoping Sinestrerra not out much longer.

I thought he might have blown ip before the first goal as there man did a second blatant dive in a matter of minutes

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Mar 04, 2023 4:47 pm  

same old leeds. deserve something, but probably won't.
Jack Harrison is absolute gash. garbage. 5 yard passes are beyond him. nlown chance after chance with crap passes

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Mar 04, 2023 5:17 pm  

FFS stop picking Harrison.
A total embarrassment once again today.
Rutter good player but not what we needed at this stage and at 35 million it`s a poor signing.
We need grit and determination and he is playing far too fancy for this league.
Like I said good player but a Danny Ings is what imo was needed up front.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat Mar 04, 2023 5:32 pm  

his final ball time and again is terrible. his decision making awful.not good enough

We should have signed a top striker from championship. That lad at Coventry or Blackburn. Rutter will be very good but he’s just not there yet. It’s a typical signing of Orta and Radrizanni.

We can’t be too harsh on them today, Chelsea have spent over £600m in 2 transfer windows. Let’s see if we can get something against a good Brighton team now. Fingers crossed Sinesterra back soon

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Mar 05, 2023 2:27 pm  

I think we missed a trick on Saturday as Chelsea couldn`t buy a win, literally even with the money they spent.
After we rode the initial onslaught we were by far the better team in the first half.
I agree with buying the lad from Coventry and have watched him on a couple of occasions and he is everything Bamford isn`t.
But Coventry refused to sell whilst they were challenging for promotion same with Blackburn and Diaz.
I also agree that Rutter will be a good signing but we needed someone who could hit the ground running. Who that would be I`m not sure other than Danny Ings perhaps.
