Agree, lallana was poor last season and brilliant this. He just needs to improve finishing and goal tally as 4 isn't great still.

I think the guy has loads of talent and Mopo saying that he he is on right road to adapting to our system. A lot if games ie villa, we've has loads of possession but haven't turned them into clear cut chances. I think gaston could be the answer to scoring more goals when sometimes we have to work to hard to a score. Thoughts?

I want gaston to play tomorrow, however can we play him, lallana and j rod and rickie vs Chelsea? Prob not. I was thinking of dropping rickie and playing j rod upfront but rickie gave the morons last season and as we saw at Chelsea away, we need his height at set pieces. Save gaston to come on and play him against burnley and also against west brom as think we can go with attacking 3 in that game.

Think will need him tomorrow but gaston can open up defences easier for me if he's on form.

He may well go onto to be a greater legend but up til now his contribution for me isn't the same as lamberts.

His overall contribution been More than most of those other than Paine and channon is argue. Lambert better than Beattie for me. More skill, vision and brings others into play more.

No that's since 1986 for overall contribution. Mark wright was prob better in terms if what he does, m svennson very good aswell as shearer and the Wallace's aswell as niemi. Lambert way ahead if pahars for me but overall contribution better than all of them. However, Paine was obviously better and channon and a Williams and Ron Davies. All time saints players id say are this 1. Matty. Crucial goals at crucial times. All his career in prem. 2. Channon- England caps and legend goal scorer. 3. Paine-a lot of seasons in lower leagues and didn't score more than 15 in top flight.

Second best player in terms of importance if what he's done after le tiss but let's not pretend he's on the same level as Matty. No one ever will be probably.

Tbh at the time I was pleased to get shot of Lowe. Didn't realise Wilde would turn out to be rubbish.

Spot on!

Fair enough.

Lambert has more than proved his worth over last 4.5 years. But osvaldo and gaston haven't and lambert was a million quid

Osvaldo is nearly 28 and isn't prob going to get a lot better, gaston is just 23 and is .

Boruc Clyne fonte lovren shaw Cork Morgan S Davis lallana j rod Lambert/osvaldo. I'd be tempted to play gaston instead of lambert or Davis as better player but think need lambert a height for set pieces and a Davis work rate vs Chelsea. Would play gaston vs burnley and west brom when the opponents will ask us to break them down

I didn't say he was as good as lallana but I stand by what I said.

And you are a complete idiot to say that and you are the one who seem simple!

Those two run up and down but are not on the same level in terms of ability and potentially end product

He played brilliantly today, don't rewrite history.

Think gaston has more skill.

Okay see what you said but I don't think he's had too many chances and against spurs and today was working much harder.

Prowse didn't track back all day he should have come off!

Sorry but that is gash. He was excellent today. S Davis etc will work hard but never had that much ability madness to sell him

A disgusting loss. We didn't have any of our 3 defensive midfielders on. Davis or jwp should have come off for gaston. Jwp, lambert and j rod woeful. Though lambert was just abysmal. Time to let gaston start. Was brilliant.

Gaston been wonderful today!
