MoroccanBlue 5,385 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Both goals from Tammy was a player with confidence. You wouldn't ever see the likes of Morata or Torres score goals like that when the chips were down. Lampard is clearly doing a number on him, and for that I will hold my hands up and say I was wrong. Not trying to go overboard, but those goals from Tammy were from a player that had a manager who believed in him. Hopefully this breaks his duck. He could already have 4 goals in 4 games if things went his way. Vesper, Johnnyeye, BXL70 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,539 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Thankful for them hitting the bar! Really need to sort things out before we face Wolves and Liverpool.. And even Sheffield next week. Johnnyeye, Strike and Vesper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 That second half was probably the best performance so far in terms of a more complete performance. We were far more solid defensively in the second half, much more controlled in possession but still created chances. Norwich and their fans would have fancied their chances in that second half and we showed a much more mature and professional performance, and a bit of personality in our play to see them off.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Norwich attack is probably 3rd best right now after City and Pool and we managed to completely shut them down in second half. Very happy with it. Also cant wait for Odoi to come back and completely shut Willian out of the game. Absolutely disastrous cameos from brazilian.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Was just thinking this. Crazy times. Last time we had 3 goals scored by English players score for us was probably lampards last hatrick BlueLyon and Johnnyeye 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Still think people talking about VAR is pointless, it will take time to get it right as its the first season with it and it wasnt the most concerning thing today. Our defending and organisation as a team was. Again. Starman60, Johnnyeye and SinineUltra 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh i thought we did well against them all game, I've been critical of our defensive structure but today was more down to Norwich being clinical than our failings. They scored the two, had 1 chance after Pukki's goal and hit the bar from that corner but beyond that they didn't really create anything.

His goal celebration showed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 The two centre backs and both midfielders in front of them, think a bit too soft for PL standards and the reason we look shaky, but things will get better I guess when Kante and Rudiger come back and cement their places. Happy for Lamps' first win, on to the next one, small steps but we're on the right track! communicate, Bosnian Blue and Johnnyeye 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They broke through our midfield very easily in the first half. You'd think we play against prime barcelona. They didnt get in clear chances, but they always looked dangerous. Second half, we realy pressed them out of the game. Could be that norwich simply ran out of ideas/bad execution too. But overall I was happy with what I saw in second half. There was little danger for us. And the type of subs we made might be very important for us this season. Score more than opponents and then bring defenders on to keep that lead. Because its likely we wont have many clean sheets and with all young players, we also lack experience to safely bring points home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
