2 goals for Edouard today against Spurs.

Think he only came on as a sub late on.
As I mentioned before players such as Christie, Drinkwater, Gray and Edouard would have bolstered the squad for not a lot of money.
I`ve had a £50 bet with a mate that Edouard will score more than Bamford the money goes to charity.

Yeah agree. Bielsa won’t have it though will he. Thankfully he’s been right so far but it’s risky

Well, at least it was only 3.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Sep 12, 2021 5:43 pm  

top 4 or 5 way to good for the rest. its like 2 divisions in a league.
still think the £25m james money could have been better spent

I`m no head coach I know.
But why bring on Roberts who is as bad as Costa for Rodrigo who was awful.
The midfield needed shoring up so why bring on an attacking midfielder to replace an attacking midfielder.
Ayling and Harrison poor again.
The plus for me was Phillips who I thought was very good once again.
And we have to change our tactics when playing the top 4-6 teams.
We are not good enough to man mark them and they are too good at finding gaps.

No composure and poor execution at the moment. We're giving the ball away far too often.

Looks like our best 3 centre backs will be missing against Newcastle

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun Sep 12, 2021 6:35 pm  

ayling played centre half there last year iirc
