StevieH Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 What did you all make of Bony today? He comes across as someone who is only going to have an impact if he and the ball are both in the box. Personally I hope he isn't our 1st choice. Ancelotti has said they are not signing anyone else so Falcao either stays at Monaco or maybe comes here? Would love him here. Poor effort from Bony. Constantly dispossessed. I expected more from him. he's a better player than he showed yesterday. not that i want us to sign him or anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantly dispossessed. I expected more from him. Thing is JD, playing as a lone striker is a thankless task, especially away from home when defending a lead. Totally isolated, chasing/receiving long balls with at least two defenders up your arse! Never gonna look good under those circumstances. On the plus side, his quick thinking set up the second goal, when he "persuaded" Blackett to give him the ball quickly and then took the free kick immediately while Manure's defence was out of position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I rate Bony. From these comments I'd a thought y'all had already signed him up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevieH Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 No Lallana or Markovic today. Lucas starts. Lucas starting would be a surprise. Thought Can and Allen were both ahead of him in the queue now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilai Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Only one guy quoted the team that I've seen, but to be fair, Lucas/Gerrard looked ok against BVB and I think Can will be brought in gradually so would expect him at some stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love him here.BR wants a short term buy up front so that probably rules out Bony, unless we buy then sell on next year?Falcao loan still #1 hope (whilst RM save up their euro cents/coerce government into giving them more cash*) so I'm beginning to think it might well be Eto'o for a year. * delete where appropriate Holy Moses.

Devil Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 More relief than anything...similar to last season first game, its just getting that first game out the way. Good to see we had a bit of character to get the winner and hang on. Southampton look in good shape, well organised back line and tough midfeild. Wins a win as they say but I expect that fluency in our passing and just general temp to start to pick up over the next few games...plus we will have more options of the bench (Lallana, Markovic). Rodgers just reiterated in the Post match - presser, he wants to get a striker and we will try to the end of the window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were going nowhere and really flat until Lambert came on, we defo look better with 2 upfront I really hope we get a quality striker in. Not sure why we set out with Lucas, caution maybe but they did park the Chelsea bus for a good period of play. Like you say first game of the season and dug in well, got the 3 points. We will get better, looking forward to seeing Moreno/Lallana/Markovic and Can though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
