Lambert says 090201
Några citat från Colchesters manager Paul Lambert efter bortavinsten mot Carlisle
Colchester United bossen Paul Lambert lyfte fram Marc Tierney för hans suveräna rensning på mållinjen när The U's slog Carlisle med 2-0.
Colchester ledde med 1-0 efter Danny Liveseys snygga självmål i den 11:e minuten och The U's skulle gå till halvtidsvila när Carlisle hade en stund av intensiv press och skapade flera vassa chanser när Tierney räddade bollen på mållinjen efter att Cleveland Taylors skott hade gått i undersidan på ribban.
Lambert sa:
“Marc Tierney's clearance was phenomenal! He has been a colossal figure since he has been here, and he's only going to get better and better. It looked a goal all the way, but he managed to get the ball away. That was a great example of us defending for our lives."
Han säger att laget är fullt av självförtroende och han sa om matchen:
“The whole team is playing exceptionally well at the moment, and we are on a terrific run. I thought we thoroughly deserved this win. We got at Carlisle right from the start, even though this is a difficult place to come. The first goal was an own goal, but give Lewis Gobern credit for a great cross into the box that was a difficult one for the defender to defend. And our second was brilliant football, from one wing to the other. It's a big, big ask to keep winning, but the games are coming thick and fast."
Om transferfönstret som stänger på måndag:
“I don't know if we'll be signing anyone else before the transfer deadline. I'll be trying, but I'm not going to waste the chairman's money for the sake of it,” confirmed Lambert.
