SaveloyMush Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Wow!!! What a rock, what a performance! Does that rhyme with Jemima? As I wrote on another thread (and for which I was called out): ( Romeu + Lemina ) > ( Schneiderlin + Wanyama ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpine_saint Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Heres hoping him, Romeu, Hoedt and VVD can recreate the same level of understanding that Fonte, Lovren / Toby, Morgan and Wanyama had. Potentially we could end up with the best defence in the PL, but we'll have to work at it some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trousers Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 At long last we now have a 'schneiderlin/wanyama'-esque duo in midfield. Great foundation for the rest of the season, with VvD sticking around being the icing on the cake. We've arguably got the best back 6 group (outfield players) in the league right now. And, yes, I know I'm getting ahead of myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shurlock Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 (edited) Strong, cultured performance, though palace totally stood off him and Romeu. Best back six Let's see how everyone gets on against the likes of City, United and Chelsea before throwing around superlatives. We just kept a clean sheet against a team that's smashing league records for ineptitude in front of goal. #thesaintswebway Edited 16 September, 2017 by shurlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alain Perrin Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Thought Lemima looked very calm and strong, a quality signing Romeu looked a bit weak compared to his ever flawless performances last season.

Wiggles31 Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Decent chant for him today. Hopefully it takes off at St. Mary's. How's it go? And yeah what a performance.

Lord Duckhunter Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Let's see him next week against a decent side before wetting our pants. He was good today, but the space they gave him, particularly first half, my mum could have looked class.

And, yes, I know I'm getting ahead of myself... Agree, our spine is looking pretty good, especially if Forster can find some form. We just need to find a player that is basically a combination of Redmond and Tadic. (i.e. Mane) someone with the pace/movement of Redmond but the technical ability of Tadic.

norwaysaint Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 I had to miss the match today, but I am confident that if Lemina was very good against Crystal Palace today, then he is probably better than Morgan Schneiderlin at his best.

supersonic Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Came through the ranks and learnt his trade at a smaller club, went to a big club and did well but never a big enough name nor, sadly, good enough to cut it there so we've got ourselves a nice little deal. Very much like Morgan Schneiderlin's situation (albeit Lemina was cheaper). Looks to be very good and the type of player we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Clarke Posted 16 September, 2017 Share Posted 16 September, 2017 Absolutely outstanding. I don't want to get too carried away as Palace just allowed him to do what he wanted to do. But even when they did pressure him, he used a trick to get out of a tight spot. You can usually tell a 'player' pretty early on in their club career, and this guy is a proper player. Touch, technique, pace, intelligence, strength. He ticks a lot of boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
