SwallowsHisOwnSpunk 7,699 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Kent & Wright should be the two wide players against Lyon. We will be under pressure for the majority of the game I’d imagine and our best chance is hitting them on the break at pace. Kent or Wright to impersonate DaMarcus Beasley & Alfie to do his best Daniel Cousin impression and rag doll their defence.

The performance levels (as in players being consistently in good form week in week out) will come. imo obvs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondraker 417 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 His finishing has been poor this season but there's very few players who drags defenders around like him which makes space. We need to start making use of that space and he needs to start putting away the chances. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee9 3,967 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I must admit he wasn't involved as much as I would have liked that being said when he was involved he kept the move going and very very rarely gave the ball away. He's not at his absolute best but he's still contributing so much to the forward moves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarzM 1,238 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Our team has to be Shagger Tav, (hopefully) Goldson, Balogun, Borna Aribo, Davis, Kamara Wright, Morelos, Kent. Then later bring on Sakala and Roofe. But we need speed on Thursday. It's going to be counter attack football IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gj923 1,457 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 He has scored the only goal in 2 of the last 3 play off rounds to get us to the group stages and 25 goals overall in Europe That does not even take into consideration assists So regardless of our overall stodgieness in the league I expect Alfie to score a good few goals in the group stages Unless he is banned or injured he deserves to start every game in Europe.

Inigo 32,524 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Do we need angry Morelos back? Is he one of those temperamental players that needs to be angry to be at his best? Don't remember the last time I saw that one side of the mouth snarl, and he's not a problem for referees any more. I want to see that growl back. Would take a suspension or two a season if it meant he had that spark again. I don't think he's been terrible this season or late last season, I just feel he's missing a bit of what makes Alfie Alfie. falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 73,159 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Adore the wee man but 7 goals in 24 games isn’t anywhere near good enough. falkirkNS, plymouthranger, graeme_4 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 34,991 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Not been good enough for the majority of the season he needs a spell out, snatching at chances and never feel confident 1v1 or with easy chances. Hagi Roofe Wright/Sakala would be interesting to see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plymouthranger 3,842 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 This false 9 role we have him playing isn’t working. He’s too far out of the box during the build up and we need our 9 to be scoring 20+ goals a season. As much as we don’t want to go back to having him as our only attacking outlet, he needs to be more selfish and play between the posts more and on the shoulder of his man. Also needs to practise his finishing, it’s becoming a big embarrassing recently falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
