He's made a lot of tackles today. The whole team isn't clicking, I don't think singling lamela out is fair.Lamela is actually ok when he plays one or two touch football
I think the players were beginning to believe all the hoopla about them. They seem to have forgotten that the success has only come about from a high intensity high pressing game. We just haven't done that today and as a result our game has fallen apart when we ourselves were pressed.
Steff you gotta stop doing west ham Omts.lol

You look to Verts or Dembele as more senior player in games like this. But neither are leaders. We needed a bit more experience - from Poch in preparing the team, from the players who let wham into a game they could dominate, and the officials who've helped wham by ducking decisions.
Spammers have stuffed and overloaded the midfield making it very very tough for us to do anything with what we have won because we lacked the architects in that first-half. Not sure about believing hoopla TBH, I think we just started with the wrong selection versus the 5 man midfield BFS shoved in there to bung up the holes.
