Lambert vs Bristol Rovers

[docker-p]

He didn't have a particularly good game, but I'll give him the benifit of the doubt.

However, i didn't enjoy reading about how he wouldn't celebrate if he scored out of respect!!!

Message to Lambert: You play for Southampton now, if you score, cream yourself.

On the night one of our best players!

Spot on.

 

What i've seen with lambert over the weeks though, convinces me we're trying to play him the wrong way.

 

He tries hsi hardest with the long ball, and wins a fair few - but IMo he's more effective on the ground, dropping deep, spraying the ball to the channels.

 

If we want him to get goals...that's what we need to do. Perfectly illustrated for Papa's goal, he worked it to the right channel with a good ball, james crossed it in and he headed it against the bar

 

Thats how we need to play him IMO. You can see with rovers setup last night how he scored so many goals last season.

 

Bingo!!!!!
