LCFC 3-2 Milll Post Match

[Pliskin]

I thought we played well. First half the goal kind of killed us, the second half we were fantastic. 
 

3-2 annoys me though, as I thought Millwall were ****ing shit, they showed a bit of endeavour but other than that one of the worst sides I’ve seen at the KP. Delighted for Daka, whereas his overall game is still a bit poor, he knows how to score goals so long May that continue. 
 

Im also not sold on Cannon, if he’s still injured I don’t know, but I’m not convinced by him so far. 

[Reg Vardy]

35 minutes ffs

[Claudio Fannieri]

I actually quite like the look of Cannon, I think he will be similar to Daka in this system, bear in mind he is 20 year old and just had the best part of 3 months out injured and also is at a new club learning a very different style of play. He actually got off to a slow start at Preston last season but once he got acclimatised he was flying. Give him time, patience and support as we have a real player on our hands.

Other than Leeds every team we've  played at home have come with the same plan, six across the back, sit deep and limit the space, Millwall were no different. 

What pleases me is that we are finding ways of counteracting this as we did in the second half yesterday. When you look at it 3-2 seems like a close game, but it wasn't we were clearly better and had Millwall played more of an open game then we could and would've probably scored six. They were never going to win this game whatever.  So the scoreline doesn't really bother me.

 

As for Cannon 30 minutes is no time to judge him, he looks the part and given a chance he will become a useful acquisition.

A number of people booing them off at half time is laughable. Unless they were booing the ref, which seems pathetic.

 

I'd guess (& hope) the boo's were directed at the referee who was up there as one of the worst we've had this season. 

 

Let Milwall get away with numerous fouls,  decided to book some when he couldn't get away with it any longer, then proceeded to let them off with clear second yellows.

 

Not to mention only 1 minute of added time.

[Dan]

Scoreline flattered Millwall in the end. No idea how they've ended up being the ones to get 2 past us.

 

We stepped it up a gear in the second half and they had no answer.

 

Referee absolutely woeful. Stroud is appalling every game without fail.

probably because the commentator insisted on bringing this stat up multiple times

Was an odd cameo wasn't it!

No way Enzo will stand for that level of effort.

Didn't win a single 50/50 (didn't even try to to be fair)

 

Also not a lot of running.

Too early to judge but he was given a decent half hour by Enzo there and really feel like he didn't take advantage of it. Bar the scramble that lead to our 3rd.

[Corky]

Good display, good character to come back and second half was total domination of the ball. 3-2 made it look a lot closer than it was.

 

Enjoyable evening with a much improved mood around the ground.

we have dropped points only 4 times in 21 games, conceded 2 goals in a league game for the first time yesterday and sit 11 points ahead of 3rd, now call me whatever you want, but if you can’t get behind that after last seasons shit show then you might be better taking up another hobby.

 

Are you sure we won the game?   After all, early on, we’d already lost it mentally.  We have no second gear … we’re shit.  Knew we would lose going in.  And we aren’t as good as the table shows.  Fact.

 

Honestly, I can’t see how we don’t have to give the three points to Millwall.

This is Foxes Talk. It’s never too early to judge here 😂

[Lambert09]

did my eyes play a trick on me, or did ricardo’s shot hit wilf? 

 

I’ll have to watch it again but i expected the goal to be given to wilf 

 

EDIT. i watched it back… that’s wilfs goal

Correct... Give the lad a proper chance.   

Next to no actual match fitness, or sharpness,  loads of games behind the others in playing Enzo's Way, oh and just getting over a fractured back, it's just human nature he won't fly into tackles. It's the same as our players that returned from ACL. Injuries, It takes weeks to get really up to speed...  Even hamstrings take a month or so to adjust back to the demands of strenuous use once healed. (I know as I've done mine a number of times in the past whilst middle distance running for the Coritanian's on Saffron Lane)

yeah, big deflection off wilf, but the original shot was going in anyway

But that only matters for own goals? If it came off Wilf it is his goal and not Ricardo's.

I’d be fuming if i had a wilf brace on my betting slip and that’s not given.

I have no idea about the rules for deflections for your own players compared with opposition players - but it 100% hit Wilf, so if those are the rules then it's definitely Wilf's goal. I don't know when the 'official' adjudication is handed down on these matters either

infact if this was a prem game then I suspect he may well  have had a brace

I think that if the initial shot is on target then the adjudication panel don't change the attributed goalscorer so I think it will stay as Riccys goal, although I think the goalie may have saved it if not for the deflection.

This is modern football for you! The Millwall forum thinks that was the worst ref they have had a real homer giving fouls for nothing so how do we square that circle? 

[Spudulike]

Never a penalty

Your playing with FT again..don’t be naughty…

You mean after 2 x 15 minutes, you can’t see this is the new tall English bulldog Messi..

shame on you..

[Clever Fox]

I have to agree with the Millwall fans the Ref was dreadful for both sides but particularly us.

 

Not only was it a Penalty  but he also failed to see Mads being pulled back from going for the Ball for the second Goal.

 

It should have been a free kick for us.
