Townsend could have given Walker a little more support given the situation of the game, but I won't place too much blame on AT. Walker really made a mess of things. For the scoreline we should have had a lot more guys back than we did.
I would agree with the first part, they both have been underwhelming if I am honest, second part is harsh yes he didn't have the best of times but he is not even close to top of the list as to why we fell apart and it was a late cameo
One of them needs to step up Kane, Chadli and Eriksen look very potent and that is encouraging as we have 3 of the 4 forward spots sorted. I think these last 3 months or so is an open audition for those two if they don't nail down that last attacking place I would expect us to look elsewhere in the summer.
I'm not a Paulinho fan but he did nothing wrong when he come on. Pushing Mason forward was a bad decision but the fact Townsend did not track back for either goal in a semi final is criminal.
Just putting this out there, his tattoos are woeful.
Dembele looks to be the third AM. One that might be a bit lacking in terms of creativity and goal threat, but as long as the other three are doing so well in those aspects, it would be great to have Dembele in there for his presence, his quality on the ball, and for his ball winning abilities.
Yeah, but like you're totally confirmist.
Yes, they are. Almost as bad as his taste in shirts, but he's young. He'll look back on those selfies when he's in his late 20s and will be mortified.
i dont like how people dont see what lamela has done today, some say that the front 3 should be chadli eriksen and dembele, for me he was fantastic better then dembele, his presence on the field made özil so much trouble to be alone, he spoted him evry where, he linked so good with eriksen and walker, he was always the 2nd striker in the pen area and did many many more things, well thats only my opinion
Watching the MOTD highlights now. For all the flack he gets. Including a good bit yesterday, it was amazing to see how many of our chances came from a smart Lamela pass or him winning the ball in their half.
Plus the corner ball from the first goal was fantastic.
He still gives the ball up too easily at times, but his effort level right now is through the roof and to me it seems like he is getting it more and more dialed in.

I really loved his effort on Saturday he got stuck in all over the pitch that being said I would still prefer Chadli at the moment as he has better end product.
Still encouraged with how Lamela as kept his head down and is working hard I think goals will come for him if he keeps up this level of effort.

Lamela put in a great cross for that Kane goal tbf.
That was Bentaleb - anyway keep watching.
Corner mate, corner.
Well say corner, not cross. Fair enough? I'm not trying to split hairs, but to avoid confusion these distinctions are important
EDIT: Actually fuck off making me argue over this shit.
Corner, Lamela put in a great corner. My mistake.
Sorry mate, I'm not looking for a fight, but his 2nd goal was from a cross, and his first was from a corner. Obviously you didn't get it wrong
Why not? And why tell me to fuck off? You fucked up - not for the first time. Pay more attention mate - people might take you more seriously.
