I didn't think we could play worse than we did in the first game against Brighton, but we managed it. Nobody played well, apart from Poveda at a push. Dreadful performance.

Brighton are a decent side, and they'll do well to keep the likes of Dunk and Bosouma in the summer, they're definitely good enough to play at a higher level.

They could easily have been 4 up by the time that second one went in.
For some reason Brighton certainly raise their game against Leeds and Leeds don`t seem to know how to play against them.
Very poor all round and like you say only Poveda who tried to do something.
Harrison must run a marathon each game but his crosses in to the box are awful..

Not the reason for the poor performance but we clearly struggle without Phillips and Raphinha. Give us so much control at both ends of the pitch. And the less said about Alioski defensively the better but that’s nothing new. Highlights where we need to target in the summer. Only one loss in 7 though that so it probably was coming. Fingers crossed Raph and Phillips back for Spurs.

I thought that was a great performance, everyone really performed well, Klich and Koch ran the midfield especially

What a superb game today, didn’t stop and the lads deserved the win. No losses to the big six at home is phenomenal. Very happy today. Happy for Bamford and Rodrigo getting on the scoresheet. Had Lloris not been in the Spurs goal today, we’d of had five or six.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat May 08, 2021 4:32 pm  

Yes excellent all round today.
Even Alioski played well along with Harrison.
For me Dallas mom but Koch certainly pushed him for that.
Still not convinced with Roberts.
At least Marty won`t be on until we lose another game

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat May 08, 2021 5:35 pm  

brilliant performance. Koch looked excellent in the Phillips role, great signs in only his second start there. Spurs are a mess though although you always felt they were in the game due to having Kane and Son. those two leave you are looking at a bottom half team.

True Biff very disjointed and possibly a throwback to the Mourhino way.
How on earth Dier gets in the England squad is as much a mystery as Raheem Sterling getting in.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat May 08, 2021 7:48 pm  

Fabulous win that. Koch was magnificent today, how he didn’t get Mom I don’t know. Harrison went well but his finishing was woeful. Nice to see Rodrigo get a goal, hopefully he’ll get some confidence back and kick on next season.

Top effort all round. There was only one ‘team’ out there today. That Spurs team has had some big money spent on it and look average. If I was Kane I’d be out of there this summer.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sun May 09, 2021 2:35 pm  

To be fair, there were 4 or 5 players who could have got man of the match. Koch, Harrison, Alioski, Klich, Dallas and Llorente were all outstanding

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Sat May 15, 2021 1:39 pm  

Great all round performance today and a well deserved win.
Llorente superb at the back and Phillips the same in midfield.
Even Harrison played well
Great finishing by Rodrigo.
