LCFC vs Wrexham - Match Thread

[Dahnsouff]

But to be fair to Fatawu, they are very attentive when he gets the ball, likely giving space to other.

James is what Winks needed in the premier league

Are we playing well or are Wrexham rubbish?

Bit of both.

He definitely doesn't. Monga's had him a couple of times but he realises it s a struggle doing him for pace so is clever enough to offload the ball when it's not on.

Monga and Fatawu have stopped most of our attacking opportunities by constantly  passing the ball backwards. Fatawu has been particularly disappointing hes got to stop looking for that cut inside wonder goal every time. Its a 1 in 100 goal but he tries it everytime

Bit of both, probably 6.5/10 for me, some ropey passing, they’re just playing some ugly midblock and trying to stop us creating anything. Still, probably our best first half of the season.

Apart from Luke Thomas turning into Ryan McGivern, that half was decent

Daka just isn't a footballer is he.

Fatawu is not having his best game. 

He’s very patchy, a few wonder goals have overshadowed what has basically been some

very average performances this season. 

[Suzie the Fox]

Enjoyed that 1st half. 

[Steve Earle]

Good half. Winks excellent. James &. Bobby looking good as the two 8s. Both wingers good in spells.

 

Alas, we’re also playing with Hamza, Wout, Luke & Daka…

[Ian Nacho]

Thomas off at HT. Don't give this ref the excuse to send him off.

Shock as Winks looks better with people that move around him 

[LCFCJohn]

How is Thomas a booking and Ramsay a red at Oxford but an arm in the face play on!

 

Daka has transformed the attack, great one-two with James. I guess is the West Brom goal was Jakub’s fault then their keeper should have saved it.

 

Much brighter but defence poor and sloppy, especially Hamza and Faes. Vestergaard has been fine. Thomas meh.

[orangecity23]

Daka isn't having a great game or anything (tidy assist mind), but because he is taking up proper striking positions and at least threatening to get in behind it means our overall attacking shape is miles better than when Ayew has been up top (but most frequently elsewhere on the pitch). Bob's been getting into some good positions as well, he's done pretty well at 10.

I want to see Carranza get on tonight but it’ll obviously be Ayew

one of our woat signings. pretty sure he made that pass by accident.

I’m not sure how the pair would do in a properly contested midfield.

 

This game scenario is very, very different to the ones we had last season.

Thomas needs hooking at the half. VK ain’t very good, but Thomas on a yellow and their winger regularly getting the better of him.

Plus those dreaded scenarios when him and Vestergaard are the two chasing back. 

 

Thomas runs as if he's in an Alabama chain gang 

[Tommy Fresh]

Thank **** Winks didn't leave 

[LiliansLeftPeg]

Give Patson his dues - No way Ayew makes that assist. Good call by Marti.

To be fair it was a great assist for the goal.

[LVFox]

The Daka conundrum, a centre forward who makes us a better side, but never looks comfortable as a professional footballer

But has still given the team far more than Ayew would have done.

Some turn on « Shoot Less » on Fatawu

Decent Half - keep this up and we will create more chances in the 2nd half

 

The formation and tactics him really helped us be able to look more dangerous than usual - still missing the final pass most of the time though

 

Only concern with the tactic is the fact Thomas is asked to play high and narrow at times, leaves him exposed to a quick pass out to Kayode who looks their best player and has the beating of him every time
