Have to think today is a must win. With a match in hand on Bordeaux and a 4 point gap, a win could potentially put the to 11 points with a win in the game on hand. Also with Nice's form starting to wobble, maybe they could be caught?
That first goal was garbage. Never should have happened. Bordeaux should have won a penalty. Those two equalled each other out. We just weren't very good today. A lot of half chances that came to nothing of substance.
Also, Morel was awful. Gave away far too many balls especially in the first half. The rain reall hampered what we wanted to do.
http://www.foot01.com/equipe/ol/ol-un-international-italien-de-l-inter-convoite-par-lyon,240456 Interesting rumor. If they are looking for a potential replacement for Lacazette they are going to have to do better than this guy to please the fans.
Puke. If Aulas is serious about making us good again and winning a European trophy it sure as hell won't be with Eder leading the line. Might as well go after Germain or hope Kalulu and his short stature is Lacazette like.
I think the rumor is from an "Italian tabloid site" so I wouldnt consider it too reliable. I think Aulas is thinking Fekir will "lead the line" next year so a Lacazette replacement would actually be a Fekir replacement so to speak. Thats my prediction anyway.
I would love to see Aulas go for Haller at Utrecht. Bigger target man but he's done well in the Eredivisie. Not sure who he came up with? Auxerre maybe?
Fekir and Depay on the bench. Down 2-1 to Roma at home at half. Diakhaby with our lone goal after good work from Valbuena and then Rafael with the actual assist. I can't understand why we have those two plus Cornet on the bench in a match we have to score in.
Think the Laca goal is absolutely massive. Need to be tighter at the back next weekend but we can get a goal or two in Rome.
This team is really talented but the defense is too young and raw. Otherwise when they are on they are ON. Love Fekir and Lacazette was huge today.
You'd think with the fullbacks experience they would offset the inexperience Diakhaby and Mammana have.
It's unfortunate that Laca isn't one year younger because next season with Tousart the CB's and wishing we could keep Tolisso we could very well challenge for the league.
I watched the Bordeaux match last Friday and I spent most of the day screaming at Morel with every lost touch in the first half. We need a new leftback in the worst way.
