He's doing really well. Great to see, I like his style of play. A very gifted and technical midfielder who's applying that from defence now which is the modern way. A position we seem to struggle in currently.

I know Jake gets requests to do Only Fans but I seriously doubt I'd be very popular 😂 -

The three of us are free to record Sunday night. Still trying to digest how abject that 2nd half performance was. So basic. -

You can well imagine he picks that team and we're still the absolute pits 1st half. -

Midfield or defence? You could play Riccy as an 8/10 and he'd not look out of place. -

I absolutely loved the original Tommy Wright, he was unplayable 1991/92. My reference to him was tongue in cheek for our younger listeners and hosts! -

Also I've just done the sports bar with O'Hara and Cundy if anyone fancies a listen. -

Just recorded. Will be up soon. -
Justin moves over to that position, arguable where he's better anyway. Bit I get your point, we do need to strengthen that area.

Be nice if we could get Alves out to Oxford too. Des Buckingham is such a good coach and being a squad of relatively unknown players is part of their effectiveness.

Facundo Buonanotte joins on loan - Official

At the very least I hope his contibutions here (which will be vast this season) encourage our club to step up their scouting and recruitment in South America. It's been largely non-existent over the years except for the occasional European based Argentinian and one exceptionally unlucky Brazilian. We need to explore this market more. -
Nelson is as good on his left foot as he is on his right. I think we've made a pillocks of which centre halves we have available for us. Okoli, Faes, Nelson and Souttar at this level would be absolutely fine. Although Nelson will benefit from 30+ Championship games this season and Souttar needs to play. Both should have futures here. Vestergaard I'm not convinced he rates and he's not in the habit of rotating his back 4. Coady has never got off the mark here. Any signing in January to the Central defence should only be a loan IMO.

It'll be a grim game if we take the lead as he'll do everything in his power to ensure we sit on the lead and invite you to try and break us down. We find it very difficult to deal with basic patterns of play, usually down the right side of our pitch and teams can easily work low balls in to the box between the bank of defenders and midfielders for the ball to be turned home. See Arsenal's first two goals and both of Southampton's last weekend as recent examples. Hopefully he's learnt our strengths are to continue to be positive regardless of the result as we do have some danger men in Bounanotte, Mavididi and Fatawu. -
Interesting he's playing LCB which was where he got rave reviews at Doncaster playing but Enzo never tried him in that role when Doyle got injured.

Big game for Hoops. Against the club who still idolise him and put himself in a position where another win suddenly propels his position at Leicester to being somewhat secure and impressive from the outside looking in. Said plenty on why he's not had it easy to start here through peculiar decision making and suspect basic weaknesses but he's a moments manager and it feels like he's set himself up nicely to launch himself in to being truly accepted if he gets another result on Friday. This is where I want to see some bravery from him. His team selection and decision making on Saturday was fine. He made the majority of changes that needed to be made and the acid test will be what he takes away from that. The evolution of this team has to include Fatawu and still maintain the threats of Mavididi and Bounanotte. He's slowly testing us with more creativity in the team with the introduction of El Khannouss too and he can be under no illusion that our strengths lie in attacking rather than containing as we're vulnerable at the back not from aggressively attacking quite strangely. So many goals are coming from low crosses between the bank of 4 defenders and the defensive midfielders. Let them loose Cooper.- 703 replies

I don't think Cooper rates Vestergaard and Coady is destined not to contribute much here. I think Nelson comes back in the summer and will challenge Okoli and Faes and be heavily involved.

Vestergaard won't keep quiet if there is anything going on or if Cooper isn't having him. -

Ric Flair replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Even if you count it, he's still got less goals and assists than Facundo in a far better team. He's also supposed to be a striker (more of a link man I know). Either way he's not better than Bounanotte. I watched a lot of Rutter last season and he's nowt special but you've got a world beater on your hands in Bounanotte. -
No way was KDH staying, he had to go to comply with PSR.

Ric Flair replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Bounanotte is already better than Rutter. He's been our best player every game this season, it's extraordinary. 3 goals and 2 assists already in a crap team. Rutter's got 2 goals and 1 assist, his end product has always been mediocre, even at Championship level.
