He is obviously a decent footballer else our scouting department wouldn't have been willing to spend 20m plus on him last Jan.
I think he was bought in in case anything happened to Vardy. Unfortunately he doesn't seem strong enough, nor does he close down like Vards, but let's be honest, on his day in terms of sheer determination and driving the team forward, there is nobody like Vardy.
Every player needs time, the only thing I have a question mark over is whether he is a 'Leicester' type player. I.e. Is his work rate high enough?
