Well, the scoreline flattered us a bit, but that's another great result at home. If only we could do the same thing away, we wouldn't be in such a desperate position now.
Hopefully Fulham will rest a few players for Sunday. And we won't.
calling down the wrath of the forum here but when lucas is allowed freedom he plays better, is instructed to sit deep and shield the defense and dont think that's where his strengths lie because he isn't strong on the ball and his long range pasing is rubbish but that's twice now when we've played the home leg lucas has got forwards competantly.
He got forward twice. He scored a goal on one of the occassions and mis-controlled the ball on the other. I'm not knocking the lad but let's not go over the top.
Yeah, I cant help but feel Lucas might be a better player given more freedom, Spidey but lets not go over the top, he showed a total lack of composure the second time round.

I'm not going over the top I'm saying I don't think being and out and out holding midfielder suits him. we'll see how he handles himself in the attacking brazil side.

Saying he got forward competently IS over the top given he only got forward twice.

fuck it, I'll stop there I'm not getting into an arguement about a player I care little about.
Lucas had a great game. Looks better when he pushes forward. He made several decent tackles, passed well and worked hard when he needed to. Took his goal exceptionally well.
He took his goal really well Neil. He's been duly applauded for it. But that was it. He really didn't do much else, hence the 'let's take a step back.' No-one is criticising him though and I for one do feel he gets unnecessary stick at times.

like I said I'm indifferent to lucas but I think he is being asked to perform a role that doesn't suit him. meh! not going to stick my neck out for lucas again I get enough stick for defending babel 😉
