Re: [LU] FW: Philips
Thought that was an exceptionally reasoned review Rich, I don't think we should get carried away. We ARE better than we were last season on early showings, but there's still a lot of work to be done. It'll take another 5 games at least before we're really in the know about where we are, but it is very promising. We need to replace Wood (Bleedin' obvious statement #472!) and maybe the rumours of this lad from Arsenal and the out of favour one from Hamburg will collectively give us options? Other than injuries, which are always a concern, my main concern though is the lack of serious game time for Viera. I think in Phillips, O'Kane and Viera we have some really decent young players under long contracts that are only going to get better now with experience, hence (Probably) why TC feels Bridcutt can move on at 29 (I think?). If Viera doesn't start to get a proper look in and REALLY challenge for Championship starting XI rather than Mickey Mouse Cup line up, he could become restless and the scum of the earth (aka Agents) will get in his ear and cause problems. Also, whilst Cooper IS playing well, how long is the Everton lad out for? Would prefer 3 chasing 2 spots ...

Re: [LU] FW: Philips
I think in him and Vieira we have the makings of a top class midfield, got to remember how young they are.

Re: [LU] FW: Philips
He was very good and we know he has the capability to put in performances like this. If he did this every week I would eat my words although I do want him to do really well. I thought we played pretty well today although I don't think Sunderland are up to much. They played like their crowd - shite. I loved the way we played in the second part of the first half with Saiz and Alloiski looking very dangerous especially on the counter. here's my scores: new keeper - 7. Had knack all to do but the one or two bits he did well. A couple of dodgy kicks. Ayling - 8. Battled hard but had a few dodgy moments against their best player. I think someone with pace who has Ayling on the back foot has a chance, I think that's when he struggles a bit. Anita - 8. I thought he was very solid in fact that's what he is a very solid, dependable player, exactly what you need in this league because most of the players are not. Cooper - 9. Very solid defending. Jansson - 10. In complete control all day. Together they looked very solid against a toothless Sunderland attack. Kyle who ? O'Kane - 7. I thought he was busy but his play had little quality. Philips - 8. Very good performance, battled hard, controlled the ball well and used it well. He's got consistent pace and when he gets the pace of the game he looks confident. Sunderland played with a slow pace which really suited him. Siaz - 9. Livewire. I thought he had chances and made runs that we could have made even more of. Great little player. Allioski - 9. First half he was superb , looked very dangerous and I think the absence of Wood allowed him and Siaz to get forward from midfield. Hernandez - 7. Not on long before he got injured by a ridiculous mix up with O'Kane but him and Siaz can definitely play together. Monk would never have entertained two players like that. Ekuban - 6. I was fairly impressed in that he ran hard and when he had the ball he showed good control. Shame he got injured. Subs: Roofe - 7. I was really disappointed (again) - he's lightweight, no pace and just can't stamp his authority on the game. Had a chance to play in his preferred role as a striker but he is no lone striker. Dallas - great header Klisch - did ok Overall, this was a perfect performance. The injuries are mounting up now.

Re: [LU] FW: Philips
I thought he played okay, and certainly has one of the better engines in the side. I thought Alioski and Saiz looked good going forward, while Ayling, Jansson and Cooper were immense in defense. My one concern is that our midfield and attacking players often seem to get muscled off the ball too easily. We do not seem to have mny physically imposing players outside of defence now that Wood has gone. That was an immense win given the circumstances: playing a major rival away from home who were unbeaten; losing our centre-forward the morning of the game (and then losing his replacement to injury); losing Hernandez barely halfway through the first half; and then having several other players (Alioski, Jansson to name but two) clearly playing through pain towards the end of the game because we'd used all our subs. To win and keep a third clean sheet in a row? Maybe TC knows what he's doing. Cheers!
