est1874 Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 11 minutes ago, CVByrne said: It has to be and the clubs priority. Agreed. Unfortunately, modern football being what it is, sometimes you have to sacrifice tangible silverware for the financial windfall of top four. It's a hard pill to swallow but is what it is currently.

The Fun Factory Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Probably the worst call by Emery so far at this time with us. Clearly priortising league over cup. Lenglet could and should have played better, but dropping Torres weakened the side with Martinez and Tielmans already out. It was a big call and it didn't work out.

He said that at the start of the season and I don't have a problem with that approach but we are at the business end now. We aren't resting him to help him get through the season. I don't know how serious some of these injuries are but we have a handful of games left, I expect them to play through the pain barrier at this stage and get the job done. If he's fit enough for the bench he should be starting and worst case bring him off at HT if he's not comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Dog Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I think if Emi is in goal, we don't talk about Lenglet. Wasn't the best on the night, but was on par with Konsa too. Wasn't a skill thing, he's a good player, but if you're gonna call him out, Konsa had one his worst games for us too, and Digne looked like he was running in concrete thigh highs in the second half. Torres is class, Lenglet isn't far off, two good players, two different roles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Bang average. But, but, but, his passing. When he learns how to defend, I’ll blow smoke up his arse like you lot. And, he ain’t even very good at passing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think we have this kind of calibre of player in our team should make one happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 He wasn't great today, but he's been in and out of the team due to injury. Don't think he's fully up to speed yet. Talking of speed, today he had a head start on the Brighton player and was made to look like he was going in slow motion. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted May 5 Author Share Posted May 5 Deluded. Lot of you. He’s bang average. When he starts performing ill think otherwise. At some point, a few of you are going to question why we’ve conceded as many goals as we have. He’s a large part of why we have. Great, he can pass. Let’s see him defend once in a while. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the key players to the way we play, when he plays well we play well. Key player in getting us to 4th, but sure just bang average Edited May 5 by mikeyp102 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
