[Albion] Class over potential

[Doonhamer7]

Did we really start to see today why Adam Lallana and Danny Welbeck are our technically best players. Their movement, vision, touch, eye for space and movement is a step above others

 

[Icy Gull]

Have to say that I have not been convinced employing them was a great move, but Lallana for two games now and Welbeck were very influential today. Some lovely touches from both of them.

Yeah same here.

 

[Elbow750]

Really impressive today. So much better when they are both fit and can start..

 

[RossyG]

Yes, both excelled today.

 

[Napper]

Need them both fit for the remainder of season.

I’m also having a munch.

I’m very happy they have proved me wrong for not being that impressed a couple of weeks back.

In the here and now, yes, but it will be the potential that takes us further. Class in addition to potential I can get on board with, not instead of...

 

[SimpKingpin]

They definitely are the best at the quick one touch football in the final third. Mac is also good in that department.

Everyone else tends to slow things down in front of goal.

Lallana’s vision is exceptional.

Agreed, but isn't it so predictable that while you wait for the potential which may never come you are forced to use class and experience.

Hughton called upon Murray..

Can we measure class beyond 45mins against a poor side. Lallana and Welbeck may be both out injured or not turn up against Newcastle! Fans are so fickle, both were being lambasted just couple games ago and have been for most of the season.

Let’s wait until they’ve been outstanding for remainder of season before handing out the laurels (and Hardy’s!)

Southampton have some very good players.

Nothing wrong with pointing out good performances when they happen

Sadly most of Southampton's good players are out injured but I agree it was a fantastic performance today by the lads and even Potter has to get praise today.

Disagree. Romeu and Ings only I’d have thought with Walcott probably on bench. AW, SM and TL are bigger absentees for us imo

Why sadly ?
I’d be quite happy to stay up playing teams who are missing their better players
It’s Not like we re not missing a few either is it ?

That place prick ex owner slating our decision to bring them in on his tinpot radio show. Both showed today that they're class above the rest and their EPL experience is essential. Maybe what we've been lacking at times through the season.

The chips were down today, they rolled back the years and both cut the mustard, amongst other clichés
