Anyone else a bit worried? We've not won since August with a pretty easy run. Tougher games coming up

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Oct 10, 2022 8:05 am  

not yet no.
leagues not got going yet.

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Oct 10, 2022 9:15 am  

To be fair, apart the top 9 or 10 teams, anyone could get relegated. There's not much difference between the teams.

We need to cut out the individual mistakes. We need to get Struijk at CB with Koch.

yep.but who goes left back?

I'd rather have Firpo at LB than Cooper at CB, to be honest

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Oct 10, 2022 2:27 pm  

I`m no fan of Cooper but he does seem to marshal the backline better than say Koch or Llorente.
However he is always prone to one big mistake each game a bit like Maguire at MU.
Personally I would have Heljde or Cresswell (yes I know he`s on loan) alongside Koch and keep Struijk at LB.
Once again Firpo couldn`t play as he tweaked something in training!

hjelde and cresswell arent ready. certainly not week in week out

Re: The ONLY LUFC Football Thread : Mon Oct 10, 2022 5:02 pm  

Hjelde is recovering from appendicitis, and Cresswell has been dropped by Millwall

I`m not on about them playing next week.
More in the future.
Cresswells scored 3 in 4 games I think and the Millwall boss rates him highly apparently.
I certainly wouldn`t be confident with Firpo playing LB.

Be nice if Firpo was ever fit… criminal that we didn’t bring in a good left back. Especially in this system. We missed Sinesterra imo and we overly rely on Bamford still. Again, criminal that an experienced good striker wasn’t brought in. We had 2 strikers on the bench both talented but inexperienced.

We mentioned centre backs on here a bit back. Tarkowski would have been perfect and on a free…madness.

If we end up in a relegation scrap again the blame lies squarely at the board. However if we had played Forrest and won (which was very likely) we’d be 8th!
