Match Report and MotM vote - FA Cup Carlisle v Everton.

For some reason Lennon's black boots bother me.

He also reminds me of a headless chicken.

I am ashamed of these thoughts.

ALL Footballer's boots should be black.
They should also wear shorts that finish just below the knee, have proper haircuts that aren't plastered up in Brylcreem, a good solid manly moustaches and have proper names like 'Charles', 'Algernon' and 'Bertram'
I may be a little old fashioned in this view but it's the best thing for discipline in the squad.

Mirallas has more skill in his left toe than Lennon.

I like Lennon, hes a great option off the bench and does a wonderful job for the team, but players like Mirallas win trophies.

Yes his left toe is absolutely outstanding, the rest of him not so much so.

To me, it's quite clear, and I see Martinez's point entirely on Mirallas. Mirallas should only be used as a starter in a game in an emergemcy. His game is to hold onto the ball and be direct; his initial thought is not to find a team mate in a better forward position, it's to move forward with the ball himself. Deulofeu carries the ball, but only up until such a point when releasing it makes greater sense than retaining it.

Yet somehow he is second only to Baines (by 3 or 4 I think) in number of assists provided since September 2012. And on about three THOUSAND fewer minutes' play than Baines, and having taken far fewer corners / free kicks.

Quite the conundrum.

Anyway, back to the thread - Lennon MotM for me. Excellent display from start to finish.
