Vicki Vixen Posted 19 November 2015 Posted 19 November 2015 Current LB is shite, even I could get in the left back position right now at Huddersfield I thought Konchesky was at QPR?
BoroBlue Posted 19 November 2015 Posted 19 November 2015 You've seen nothing until you watch Jason Davidson
Len Finsbury Posted 19 November 2015 Posted 19 November 2015 I know he's come through our academy but is he a local lad?
Stevosevic Posted 19 November 2015 Posted 19 November 2015 I know he's come through our academy but is he a local lad? No, Milton Keynes i think
Ric Flair Posted 19 November 2015 Posted 19 November 2015 No, Milton Keynes i think Might be one of the reasons why he's not committed his future to us yet? No family loyalty to Leicester.

Thracian Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 Is there no-one at the club who can teach our players to cross the ball properly? It's such an easy skill but it does require practise on pace, flight, and precision. It's gone on for years and Chilwell seems to have the same failing as so many before him according to the Huddersfield fans.
martyn Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 Why would you pick out the 1 criticism amongst pretty much universally positive reviews? He's an 18 year old kid making his debut at a very decent level.
Thracian Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 His crossing was mentioned several times and that's exactly what I'd pick out and the sort of thing I'd always be looking for - ways and means of improving.
Babylon Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 His crossing was mentioned several times and that's exactly what I'd pick out and the sort of thing I'd always be looking for - ways and means of improving.. Yeah cus crossing is always what you pick out from an 18 year old left back. Ffs. Anyway, your opinion on left backs is nul and void after Sheehan.
Bryn Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 I will never forget that. On my deathbed I'll be able to recall Thracian banging on about Sheehan.
Thracian Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 . Yeah cus crossing is always what you pick out from an 18 year old left back. Ffs. Anyway, your opinion on left backs is nul and void after Sheehan. a) Crossing is extremely important to full-backs and 18's as good a time to improve as any. b) Sheehan was the best striker of a dead ball in the club at the time and by a distance. Any other claims were simply in relation to the options we had at the time - as I pointed out almost as many times as it seemingly takes for you to grasp a point. . c) As for my assessment of full-backs, coming from a bloke who flew the flag for Rob Kelly as a manager, I don't think I'll lose any sleep.
fleckneymike Posted 28 November 2015 Posted 28 November 2015 I will never forget that. On my deathbed I'll be able to recall Thracian banging on about Sheehan. Cut him some slack. He also said sign Heskey and play him at CB
Master Fox Posted 29 November 2015 Posted 29 November 2015 Might be one of the reasons why he's not committed his future to us yet? No family loyalty to Leicester. I met his Dad once and at my friends bbq and he was an absolute helmet. Talking shit about Nige and club back when we were in the Championship. He was drunk and I thought his son should be in our first team or playing for Barcelona. I wanted to throttle him.
skinner05 Posted 29 November 2015 Posted 29 November 2015 You've got some player on your hands lads. You could see after his first 5 touches that he isn't just any old left back. Most of our attacking play came through him in the first half and he put a cross on a plate for one of our forwards that was somehow kept out on the line. His confidence to carry the ball forward throwing in step overs all over the shop shows he's full of confidence. And one of the divisions best wingers was subbed after 60mins after getting nothing out of Chillwell all game Can we have him all season please?

Flew the flag for Rob Kelly what the hell you talking about! You need to do a bit of reading.

Dan Posted 29 November 2015 Posted 29 November 2015 Glad to hear he's looking the part. Best thing we could've possibly done was loan him out to a side like Huddersfield - one who now managed by someone who worked closely with Klopp at Dortmund might have the kind of attacking intent that we have here.
skinner05 Posted 5 December 2015 Posted 5 December 2015 Impressive again today. Cool in the early build up to our goal in the first 30 seconds and involved in a couple of other clips: http://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/10090290/birmingham-0-2-huddersfield
