And to think..wasn't he out on loan to bloody Forest or somewhere?

What a revelation he's been.

100%.

Would rather him than a second Mahrez. Variety is the spice of our team-love the different strengths they all have...

 

C'mon he's good but that's ridiculous.

 

Imagine playing 4-5-1, Vardy up top with a Mahrez either side and three central MF's running games from the middle.  :jawdrop:

Albrighton does the basics to a very, very high standard. He's a very good classic winger - direct down the line, pacey, stamina and a good delivery from open play and dead balls. Nothing too flashy so his contribution gets overlooked. He's a very effective player in our side.

Sofiane Boufal from Lile could help us achieve that... very similar to mahrez.

He appears to be one of the 'silent' deadly performers, both attacking and defending.

 

Doesn't get the plaudits he deserves.

Still a little bit miffed on why he's always stuck on the left. Yeah he does well there but seemingly is there to accommodate Mahrez cutting in.

He is best getting a yard of space and whipping the ball in from the right. Can do it from the left but every opposition must know he has to cut onto his left.

Did very well back end of last year on right.

Think he's an underrated player and think he should be getting a mention for an England call up

I thought he did very well when he came on today. Adds a bit of defensive stability as well as his crosses and going forward.

Easy to think he doesn't get the regocnition he deserves when we've had Vardy, Mahrez, Kante and Drinkwater having the seasons of their lives.

 

He's been super, just overshadowed.

We rate him highly but I still think he is underated for the amount of work he puts in defence and attack. I know his crossing can be frustrating at times but it's a rare ability to be able to put a dangerous cross into the box from nearly anywhere on the pitch. We have a great balance now with flair and speed from Gray but also the crossing ability and defensive solidarity with Albrighton.

What did people think of Albrighton at right back tonight? I think Riyad has been crying out for some support down that wing. Could Albrighton do a job there?

Did he actually play RB? I don't think I saw him in the Leicester half?

I've thought for a while that could be a good option for us, especially against the lower teams at home when we need to attack more

No. You could see he hasn't got the positioning sense for a  full back.

 

Was a stupid substituion. Should have either just gone 3 up front and moved Chilwell across into a centre half or put Benayloune at full back and brought Morgan on.

Was it stupid though? He was the only one creating anything tbh when he came on. I think his positioning can be questioned for the goal, but attacking wise he looked good from right back.

I agree he was the only creative spark, but I think at full back it was pointless. We should have just gone 343 with Albrighton in a more natural position. We all know he defends anyway.
