Ulloa

Recommended Posts

No real club links but says he may leave in January according to an interview with The Fail http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-4015342/Leonardo-Ulloa-says-Leicester-need-work-harder-arrest-poor-form-admits-leave-club-January.html  .


How do we feel about that?

 

Scored many important goals but not sure he's good enough anymore.

Feel sorry for him as he hasn't done much wrong, looked good when he came on in the week.

 

With slim in it's always going to be either him or Ulloa as the big man and it's very hard to keep a 30M signing out the side.

 

However Ulloa is our only striker to not start a game so you could argue he hasn't had a fair chance at all to prove his worth, especially when our other strikers are constantly misfiring.

SkySports saying the same thing. Don't blame him, Couldn't even get a start in the Porto Away team. Would be great signing for Championship side maybe even back to Brighton.

Top professional, but he's a limited player. We are not set up to use his strengths well, so it makes sense to let him go now that we have an upgrade in Slimani who is better in the air and more mobile.

He's been a good investment in hindsight even if it looked like he cost a ****ing fortune!

I stuck up for him when people slagged him off... But him and a few others who played Wednesday, couldn't have looked less interested if they tried, so time to go. 

He came on at half time and was the only one putting himself about, winning headers, being a bit of a nuisance. Completely disagree with him 'not looking interested'.

 

Deserves more of a chance than what he's getting at the moment, gets 5 minutes at the end of games if he's lucky and generally does quite well.

Great bloke and a great character.

 

I'll miss him if he goes, he was immense last year when called upon, the games against Norwich, West Ham and Swansea in particular. He's a better player than Musa really, and great to bring on if you're defending a lead as he holds the ball up so well - we don't have the lead very often to defend now though so may be surplus to requirements.

I've always rated Ulloa. He's got a great attitude and with regular game time he's a goalscorer. Like Slimani, he does have that instinctiveness in the box, he knows where to position himself and over the two years at the club he's been vital, scoring many important goals.

 

I will be honest, if utilised to his strengths and plays in a system that works, I can see him netting 10+ goals a season in the Premier League with another team - even more than that in the Championship I'd say.

How people can say Slimani is better in the air than Ulloa is criminal. I've not seen Slimani win a header since he signed. Ulloa is under rated and I will be sorry to see him go. 

On average Slim wins 3 headers a game according to the stats so he can win them, but I think he always tries to bring the ball down and make a pass instead. Maybe because in his career he has always played as the main striker.

He's scored about 5 headers since he signed for us lol
