Walsall 0-1 LCFC - Post Match Thread

[South Shire Fox]

Enjoyed that game. Shocking finishing but enjoyable. Nice finally having a LB who over laps Barnes aswell

Good to get through but the finishing was so poor. Need to improve massively if we're going to pick up points in the league. 

[CloudFox]

Thought we were pretty poor to be honest, against a League Two side with what is pretty much our first team line up to begin with.

 

Kristiansen seemed more involved in play than Thomas tends to be, but difficult to tell in the short time he was on.

 

Anyway, we're through to the 5th Round!

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

Kristiansen does look good. Clear up grade and a big mobile unit.

 

The performance will get criticised, but I thought it was ok. We were very wasteful up front, but everything else was ok.

 

These games are always tricky and at least we didn’t bottle it and shit our pants.

[Zear0]

Don't think we were as poor as some have made out. Usually get bullied against these teams which wasn't the case which was a positive. Made it through is all that matters. 

[lcfcbluearmy]

Much better second half Iheanacho and kritianssen made the difference

[ACF]

Completely uninspiring, poor finishing, and at times very sloppy passing

Victor - good signs 

Dennis - I love him

Harvey - gone missing

Papy - everywhere but shouldn’t have had to have been

Iversen - comfortable until the last 20 then an absolute bomb scare 

Madders - lacking sharpness

Rodgers - dwarf fraud

It’s Victor, not Viktor, serves me right for assuming

[UHDrive]

Kristisn looks absolutely fantastic!! No more Thomas hopefully.

 

Bbc man of the match = KDH, apparently "shown his class and quality". Utter 💩. I don't mind applauding him for his work rate but that statement I found nauseating.

[FoxesWalk]

Mendy was our best player by quite a long way. Daka shite finishing, Thomas was poor, Barnes was shite again. Nacho saves the day with a healthy dose of luck. 

[reynard]

A win is a win but not a lot of quality really and a very fortunate goal. Did enough to win but will need to be a lot lot better in the league to stay up.

Yeah total nonsense for him being MOTM 

[when_you're_smiling]

27 shots! If the finishing was there it would have been comfortable.

 

KDH best player on the pitch. Early days and was fed overly tested defensively but VK looked really impressive.

 

[Ric Flair]

It's all about 1 word from Brendan's lips - TETE

[StriderHiryu]

Another unimpressive performance against a lower league side won with a fortunate Nacho goal you say? Clearly winning the cup again this season then!

[KFS]

Iversen is clearly our best keeper 

[lestalee]

Got a feeling this Kristiansen lad is gonna link up well with Barnes...

Iverson should be our #1

He kept a clean sheet but looked nervy at times. 

 

Distribution was poor, hesitant coming off his line and got away with a couple of moments that he adapted well to, nearly fumbled a simple header on the line.

 

 

[hejammy]

Kristiansen HAS to start and be our first choice LB. Barnes needs dropping. No where near good enough for lots of games. (please don't come back with his confidence blah blah, as honestly at this moment he doesn't seem to care as he thinks he just walks into the team) 

 

Faes played well. Nacho deserves to start but how many times have we said that. KDH, yes he works hard but he's technically lacking. 

 

Nice to see Madders back, he brings so much more quality in our play. 

[5waller5]

No risk football, no risk team selection, narrow win.

 

Several young players should have been mixed in today and the club gain from their integration.

 

Rodgers being Rodgers picked his first outfield 10 again, the only risk being taken was running them into the ground or injuring them.

 

Another £193k in the bank for BR, another week of feeling like we’re treading water before we drown. 

[Dahnsouff]

They made a good comment in the commentary, form is a great leveller- not excusing ours, it’s needs to turn around right away

 

2nd half, was a lot more like it

[An Sionnach]

We are definitely not a shit team ; we are definitely not a great team. We are OK I suppose. Avoid the drop and shape up for next season.

[Dandy king]

Just three words needed for your notebook Brendan 

 

Play senior man 

 

 

 

 

[KingsX]

Glad to see they gave Nacho the goal.  Close to an OG wasn't it?

[80footgiraffe]

I think there are some positives to take - 27 shots, albeit of a poor quality is good. Vic looks level headed and strong already, thought the return of KDH and Maddison together was strong, although Madders didn’t do loads.

Barnes lacks the intelligence to link up 2 magnets together never mind another player.
