  1. Or Mavididi on the other wing who played like he was wearing stilettos
  2. It's called strategic alignment and sporting excellence
  3. He was alright today, I still think there's an awkwardness to him but his weaknesses oddly feel less exposed at centre-half than full-back. He's horrible at one-on-one defending, isn't athletic enough to effectively cover the ground a modern day full-back needs to and can't be trusted with the ball in tight spaces. He's got more of the pitch to use at centre-half and it seems to make him less panicked, the touchline isn't making him shit himself like it normally does.
  4. I'm not expecting to have nailed a starting XI, I am expecting him to bring players off earlier than he is when they're very clearly having bad days at the office. I think Watson will end up being a handy player for us this season but him getting 80 today is criminal and as has been mentioned was a byproduct of Martin's crap management when it came to sub windows.
  5. I do think Spurs will ultimately "be fine" but it was mad how many in the media were tipping them were a top 4/5 tilt this season. They're still very questionable in some areas and still have that loser stench hanging over them, like us – hard to shake once the arseholes have been embedded for so long
  6. Monaco were better than us last year, doesn't make Wout Faes good. Other sides are capable of making terrible signings and errors of judgement too. Your logic would only work if Derby/Sheff United had a 100% success rate with transfers, which they clearly don't.
  7. Started a bloke up front who can't score, made subs too late, kept on players who were clearly not at it, didn't win (again).
  8. Can tell he's gradually getting a bit sharper and used to the pace of play over here, some nice touches and runs. As has been said though, proof is in the pudding when it comes to him actually having chances which seem few and far between given how we choose to play. I think he'll be fine and good for ~10 goals but I do worry about the goalscoring burden being placed on him simply because our other striking options seem to be 5'4" attacking midfielders who can't finish. Been said by countless people on here but we clearly need an alternative out and out striker.
  9. Was against the signing at the time but I still expected him to look better than he has
  10. Always in the right place at the right time and seemed to win the ball back loads, I know he had a fairly positive loan last year but he really does seem to have emerged with very little fanfare beforehand
  11. Didn't do anything noticeably daft which was refreshing for a left back in a Leicester shirt. Not quite as quick as I was expecting given what had been written up about him when he signed, but he looked really steady
  12. Always remember the Chris Kamara, Mark Wright, Jamie Laing and Richard Osman eps of this being world class
  13. People really do need to read up on the definition of entitlement
  14. G-Star Raw merchant for me. Only wears aftershave if it comes in a bottle shaped like a grenade
  15. Wednesday dishing out a slapping but it's alright guys, we were much improved in our 0-0 draw
  16. Your mate's signings are shite pal
  17. No wins against three sides you'd fancy to be at the arse end of this league. You'll be able to count the amount of times we score more than a single goal on one hand even if he gets the season. Atrociously late subs today, **** off.
  18. Think that's actually correct
  19. Do anything other than that you useless gimp
