VirginiaSpur said:Yay, updated. Thank you very much. I missed the second goal entirely due to a bad stream and the first one was choppy.
Ok, thoughts. Watching those goals, I'm very concerned by VdV's pace. He grabs both goals but looks to me like Charlie could outrun him. Also, I'm perfectly ok with VdV tracking back but he's SOOOOOO far back on the run that grabs the second goal. The guy could last a whole match no problem if he could cut back just a bit on ground covered.
VdV grabbed the goal on the first one, but Adebayor's movement there really impressed me. His movement always impresses me, he covered a lot of ground very quickly with that beautiful long, graceful stride of his and by the end was in a great position for Walker to dump the ball off to him as well.
I think Walker is looking like he'll be a Bale clone by the end of the season. If we weren't lacking for cover at RB I'd say move him up to RM to take Lennon's spot. Walker looks like a one-man right-field at the moment, allowing everyone to drift in to more central roles as he relies on his freakish speed and stamina to cover RW and RB.

There is a site that has full MOTD's on it as well by the way. Footytube sources them from other sites and they do get deleted over copyright issues, so i'm not too sure how this other site gets away with it - maybe keep it on the hush, hush
