Magic Lamps

Brendan Rodgers is absolutely priceless... still banging on about character and personality forever exactly like how the impressionist does him.

Even if Leicester lose all remaining games, we need to keep Wolves at safe distance. Their remaining games are piss easy. We need to get those 4 points before we play them. Absolute must win vs by far theworst side in the league. no excuses

he had nothing to do with their win today tho. A crazy mistake by schmeichel and ndid brought borunmouth back in the game and Leicester collapsed. I donteven think you can credit the players bc they were shit as well until they got that lifeline. This was just an incredible few minutes of anarchy that happen in PL. Not even Eddie Howe will have the cheek to claim haivng masterminded this turnaround.

afc bournemouth, playing shit all game, still scoring 4 vs the 2nd best defence in the world.... only in PL

I thought they lost the match when Ake was stretchered off but its nice to see they won it for him. I hope the lad gets getter soon

at least we are not the only team completely bottling things... going from being comfortable in the lead to complete bonkers and losing the match in a matter of seconds. legendary bottle job

Leicester completely shitting the bed... this was the game they were supposed to win lol

Söyüncü BANNED FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON This is huge

wtf is happening.

damn solanke is shit. glad we got rid of him. what a terrible player. any striker with just a semi decent control of the ball would have scored there.

yup thats the game they will win. but they will not win vs Sheffield and Utd.

i am not even sure if we have ever looked as pathetic as bournemouth today. we at least tried some shots and stuff yesterday. bournemouth are an absolute excuse of aside. wish we could play them in that shape all year.

errr that statistic cant be right. we just lost yesterday without him. also we had more than 11 games without him iirc

lol danjuma simply gave the ball straight to vardy. it is as if they were piad. brilliant defending by ake on that instant. injured himself in the process.

He is clearly their best defender but that's nothing to be proud of. That's like being the least corrupted EPL ref.

they are terrible. but they could as well win today and still go down please. the whole team of theirs doesnt even know the offside rule. what a pathetic bunch. deserve relegation with every fibre.

Bournemouth have even worse communication and organisation than we do. 3 players hunting a lost ball adn getting flagged offside

still young compared to the oldest golden boot winners inserie a lol

I know their defence is better than ours but Vardy scoring those goals when it matters and Tammy having failed so for months is what gave them this lead over us in the first place. It evaporated with Vardy's dry spell and now has returned. dont see bournemouth coming back from this. their morale is shit. at least we are not the only ones.

1-0 vardy over. what a scrappy goal. looks like one we concede. stuipi errors from afc giving the ball away time and time again. poor clearanc eas well. the iheanacho shot was going nowhere

you remember when bournemouth were quoting us for callum wilson for 50m. what a bullet dodged. guy cant even control simple passes. afcb should have taken our 30m bid

a rare mistake and the pass was shit got him under unnecessary pressure. i have seen ulreich complete some incredible saves. as a back up goalie to challenge kepa he would be a nice low budget solution

Statistically that is not quite true. Teams with a good defense tend to have low scoring games such it is more likely to avoid defeat but less likely to win,whilst good attack is more likely to win or lose. So on average the better offense picks up more points. So one should rather phrase it offense wins leagues, defense wins cups. The thing is we dont really even have a good offense yet, not scoring enough goals.

I agree. We have to allow Lamps some leeway here. He lost our by far best player. Our best players like Azpi, Willian (yes sadly) are all a year older or often coming from a bad injury like Rüdiger, RLC. still he managed to integrate a couple of (more or less talented) youngsters, had a fucking transfer ban, got extensions of CHO, Tomori, Mount, pitched Werner and Ziyech to come here and on top of that managed to get us almost as many points as we had last season. He has his mistakes which are particularly annoying but I think he has at least fulfilled expectations (mine was 6th place) given his mammoth task. Nothing but respect for how he handled it characterwise with serenity and professionalism. He is not the finished article as a manager and neither we are as team.

there are tons of great back up gks available that i would take over kepa obviously. I particularly like Emmy Martinez for his incredible calm, power and anticipation. Another one would be Sven ulreich who has been absolutes stalwart when featuring for the often injured neuer.
