Freesolo Posted 29 August 2015 Posted 29 August 2015 Right backs valued at under ten million according to transfermarkt. That transfer market website is way off with its valuations, I think it has Mahrez valued at £5m
ramadaone Posted 29 August 2015 Posted 29 August 2015 All this bollox about he doesn't get cover He is a fecking defender who should win way more of his 1 v 1 battles than he does never mind his total lack of awareness of what's going on around him He is pants end of story
nettle Posted 29 August 2015 Posted 29 August 2015 Crap this year crap last year I think their's a recurring theme here.
GingerrrFox Posted 29 August 2015 Posted 29 August 2015 All this bollox about he doesn't get cover He is a fecking defender who should win way more of his 1 v 1 battles than he does never mind his total lack of awareness of what's going on around him He is pants end of story Too true Ramada. He was never overlapped today in the game he simply wasn't good enough to win his battle with Gradel, he has no positional sense - constantly went wandering inside, wanted others to move out and press his man for him and who knows what he was doing for their goal - he simply didn't track his man on a basic 1-2.
what? Posted 29 August 2015 Posted 29 August 2015 If they're rushing to sign someone I can see us being linked with Jonathan Moreira. Played under Ranieri at Inter and he's freshly out of contract. 29 years old and well experienced in Serie A. No idea if he's any good mind you!
filbertstreet Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 Sime Vrsaljko always seem to get good reviews. Played with Kram for a while too
Lesteban Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 Sam Byram? Clearly distracted atm and wanting to leave. Could face competition though.
BoyJones Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 The best right back in the world cannot operate totally successfully if he is isolated. Could it be a training ground issue, because if CR is having to coach Mayrez during a real game, is he (Mayrez) paying enough attention during training when clearly they will practice whatever system CR is going with for the upcoming match.
LesG Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 We need options there that's for real. We COULD change shape just to cover our weakness but I think that would be a retrograde step. We COULD move Mahrez off the right and field a more defensively minded winger but, again, why compromise one of our best attacking options? Whichever you cut it, I think we need someone who can play that position. No disrespects to RDL, he's just not ideal there and better teams than Bournemouth will exploit it. Unless CR is intending to change our defensive shape (or our shape entitely) then I see us needing a rb as a matter of priority.
dedlock Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 It is the area that opposition have identified as our weak spot. I'm sure our game analysts will have also seen the opposition concentration on that flank. Unless we recruit,and have been monitoring potential candidates,it will have to be addressed in training. If we go with what we have and use a CB as alternative to RDL why not Liam?
dedlock Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 We had 'A.Trialist' at RB in U21 friendly v Cardiff. Anyone know who that was?
Bluearmy 316 Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 We just need to go back to 352. Morgan Huth one other kante inler in the middle mahrez behind the strikers of vardy and oz wing backs schlup and albrighton. Think that is our best team. Just got back from Bournemouth we were very poor apart from the last 20 mins after their injuries. Delaat was awful everyone could see a goal was coming from his side. Positives kante looks a beast won the ball so many times. Morgan solid and schlup play probably his best game for us
NewquayFox Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 Agree with Bluearmy 316, watched the game on a live stream and a back 3 is a better option, not sure if Was/Benny are capable enough alongside Wes & Huth, DeLaet wasn't helped by the early injury to Mahrez and in hindsight Ranieri should have replaced him earlier..... Up the City.....
filbertstreet Posted 30 August 2015 Posted 30 August 2015 Oscar de Marcos I reckon he'd do well with Mahrez, cracking player tons of energy - would cost a ton though http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaleague/news/newsid=1739035.html

Wouldn't it be tinkering to go to 352? yes it worked for us late last year. But if it is not a formation he is used to managing he shouldn't.

Orange seat Posted 31 August 2015 Posted 31 August 2015 Sky just announced that we've had contact with Hull over Elmohamady. Thought he was one of their better players last year.
deep blue Posted 31 August 2015 Posted 31 August 2015 Didn't CR get slated for tinkering with a winning 442 formula. Wouldn't it be tinkering to go to 352? yes it worked for us late last year. But if it is not a formation he is used to managing he shouldn't. Skewed logic, surely. If 3-5-2 is our best formation then that's what we should play. Our squad and training staff are comfortable with it. Only Ranieri has to adapt to it; how can that be difficult for a coach with his experience?
