Southampton (A) Match Thread

Christ our decision making in their half is slow and awful!

[lgfualol]

De Laet is bad. We looked scared to attack, King falls over when he goes into their half.

Drinkwater is like aaah omg someone come help

Southampton look a different class to us,

[Merging Cultures]

There's no-one to aim for that's why. Him and Drinkwater only have each other to pass to.

And they are usually on top of each other in this formation

King is having an absolute stinker.

Who?

[Larry_LCFC]

We lack any attacking creativity. Need Mahrez and Knocky,

[Legend_in_blue]

The perfect situation to describe how the diamond just does not work right there.

 

Break with the ball, no-one out wide, Schlupp far too far back, and no outlet.  Stifled in midfield and lose the ball.  Lack of pace.

 

 

 

Never saw this one coming...

[Callabinho]

Only a matter of time.

[lgfualol]

Cambiasso what the ****. Stop falling over

[benpicko]

Ulloa and King providing nothing at all

[FoxyPalace.com]

Only a matter of time.

 Agree we are taking a right old battering

[MPH]

What an excellent Southampton team this is though....

Certainly where they are on merit. No fluke at all....

[ronnup]

This is horrible. Absolutely bossing us.

[chapero82]

don't you just love long balls

[theessexfox]

Better scoreline than we may have expected at this point..

[glenelgfox]

Our players look slow clueless when we get it into their half!

[LCFCFOX6190]

Ulloa just doesn't fit our system.

[Carl the Llama]

I can get why you might want to give Ulloa a nice, big hug, but I thought that wasn't allowed during a match?

[cjslcfc]

Won't play many better defensive units than this...

[shen]

Hanging in there... just!

[Merging Cultures]

This is horrible. Absolutely bossing us.

I wouldn't say that.

We just don't know what to do when we have the ball.

[lgfualol]

De Laet is well shit.

[Bryn]

de Laet skinned again.

[Fox92]

Ulloa and King providing nothing at all

 

Of course, Ulloa has no service. We could have Ulloa, Wood, Messi or Costa but without no service they aren't going to impact the game. Ulloa is good at what he does - in the air, holding up the ball - but this formation doesn't work. We just go backwards.

[Shipman Out]

Powell's best position is at the top of the diamond. When we play it we don't pick him.

[AKCJ]

This is horrible. Absolutely bossing us.

 

They've had one shot on target. Calm the **** down.

The fretting this board goes through some times makes me rage.
