terrytini Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I think we've looked pretty comfortable defensively. Clark has been impressive. Outside of McGeady's shot against the post, Everton's efforts have been very tame. Agree - obviously anyone can make a mistake, any attacker can have a bit of genius, but we do look solid.

PompeyVillan Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Smash and grab so far, but in fairness we've looked comfortable. Without Lukaku's strength we can quite happily sit deep without having to worry too much about Mirallas running in behind, because we are winning everything in the air. Some might call that negative but I think it's tactically astute. Whenever we break we look likely, for the goal we invited Baines forward and exploited the space he left behind very quickly when Delph put in that excellent tackle.

dudevillaisnice Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 We look decent defensively, think Holt and Weimann need to do much more though. That said you can see them getting back into it with a fluke goal or something and it will certainly be a different game then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 **** DEPRESSING Embarassing play. Have we even had the ball apart from the goal? You're embarrassing, we're winning. Your just "result" focused. If you look at our overall game in that half, its been shit. But football is a results orientated business. Were you not aware?

Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted February 1, 2014 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted February 1, 2014 This isn't an accident - we've had 30% possession and we know exactly what we're doing. Ironically, our counter attacking play hasn't been that good so far - we've played a number of poor balls in good positions, but the way we set up and then frustrate teams is so good that we've been able to get by with just one good attack. It really shouldn't work, but it does and it's not a fluke, Bacuna has been really good for us, but player of the half is young Stones, a handsome young chap with lovely hair and fine strong supple thighs who I believe is the finest right back I've ever seen. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaCas Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Tactics spot on from Lambert Well drilled performance from the team We look in complete control Bizarre that some would prefer us to play an open game and then allow them to pass the ball around us Holt and Benteke keeping them honest at the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 We've controlled the entire game without needing the ball to do so, I'd say that is pretty good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
