Magic Lamps

Isco is only good when he is in the mood tho. He might look flashy with his nice dribbling but rarely scores so he is basically an upfield Kovacic minus the defensive prowess.

Don't we have RLC and Barkley for that already?

I think we should give Mourinho something of his own medicine and park the bus, slow the game down and frustrate them. ----------------Kepa---------- -----Zouma--Rüdi--Tomori--- James-----------------------Emerson ----------Kante------Kova----------- --Willian------Tammy-----Puli---

I would say that in this context they mean the same but in general beschleunigung is the more technical term you can also use for cars etc. and Antritt is usually only for people/animals that can run.

Beschleunigung/Explosivität/Antritt. Buchstäblich der Geschwindigkeitsgewinn auf den ersten Metern.

same gd and superior h2h I guess

this one fucking time walking it into the net worked. beautiful team goal albeit way too elaborate

Rüdiger back is so massive. Glad he is starting and hope he stays injury free. This match should not be that high-intensity such that it should be a good acclimatizer

I am confident we will win this. What beat us at Everton and vs Westham was their rigor and commitment. I do not see this from Lille provided we score first. If they score first they might start playing for pride and putting in an effort to cause an upset. But if their dangerous players really are rested we should be comfortabel enough.

Overreaction this time indeed is massive. Everton were really poor today but they brouht an intensity we could not cope with. we wasted half a dozen of glorious chances (pulisic, willian, mount and abraham all either rushed or delayed their finishes). Lamps made a poor defensive selection but that is mostlybecause almost all our defensive players are shit. You can not blame poor fnishing and comical goalkeeper and defender errors at Lamps. Can't belive people are already calling for his head. He has not hadany money to spend so can only cope with the mediocre squad we has, which, lets face it is still punching above its weight in 4th place. I predicted 6th and i would still consider 6th place an alright outcome, albeit I think we will somehow scrap 4th. We might not be able to get much done in the January transfer window but we will be able to get rid of some deadwood and at least bring in some decent player. We clearly still need a left footed winger, a proper striker, a cb and a left back and now maybe a goalie. We might not get absolute quality but you can hardly downgrade from the options we have in those positions. I maintain. We might lose a lot lately but I maintain we are not playing that bad. Wham, Everton put in their best performances this season so far in. City are just a better side. In all those games we create chances en masse (bar maybe Wham) but failed to score. Young players, young managers are bound to make mistakes. I warned everyone here in the beginning of the season and during that 7 win run that there will be times we will be shit, when the young boys are tired, get bullied make mistaks, lamps picks the wrong tactics or players. This time now has come and this is not the end of it. I can see us struggling all through the packed December. And they all might be slow learners but they will learn eventually.

our entire defensive set of players is shit. Rüdiger, James and maybe Tomori are our only competent players there. The remaining goalies and defenders are just shite.

how is that poor management when refs fuck us?

Pickford coming across just to injure Abraham. what a prick. should be sent off. nowhere near the ball there

massive time wasting from everton

dafuq was mount doing there

Kovacic too ego there. they are leaving spaces behind.

we are Sarriballborefest all over again. if we concede we basically hav already lost the game.

Willian showing why he is a Mr. No-goal

As usual we create enough chances but we fail to score them. final ball. Abraham was free there

try the windsor knot. It is far superior to the five in hand knot Ferguson which has botched there

Tammy is so shit in the air for such a tall man

We have been looking poor for weeks now. they players look battered. We really need the reinforcements in Jan and get our injured ones back. it is mind boggling how long they are out. RLC would work wonders in such a game Tammy really should score one of those. put on a plate

Richarlison starting the time-wasting

Azpi's left foot is so shit. he really can not play simple passes with it

dafuq what is mount doing there.his weird turns get him back into trouble. we really need to be better on those counters cos they are theo nly way we score
