dedlock Posted 16 January 2016 Share Posted 16 January 2016 He will be 30 in April. If he remains injury free he has 3 or 4 more years playing top level football. I'm sure our sport science team will offer him all the support he needs.  He has grown into this team and seems a 'breath of fresh air' in the dressing room.  Our best LB since Nish/ Rofe?

Good call. There aren't many who really stand out in recent decades. Many on here aren't quite old enough to give the long view.  I think I might well have seen Rofe, but I cant remember much about the games I saw as a nipper. 4ft 6 in the Kop, its probably not surprising!  What I remember most is the sounds!  EDIT I always liked The Tank, tho I can't for the like of me remember his name  , and Whitlow has just sprung to mind, although he was more of a CB/LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holyfox Posted 26 January 2016 Share Posted 26 January 2016 The guy's a legend. He strolled into the Northface store in Highcross this afternoon with his son  and was kind enough to have picture with my Foxes mad teenage daughter! I wouldn't normally ask, but she was so excited, we just had to. Legend!!   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLittleBigMan Posted 30 January 2016 Share Posted 30 January 2016 Has to be one of the best pieces of business we did over the summer. Hadn't heard a great deal about him prior to coming but looked the business. He's got everything in the locker that the modern game looks for in a defender and we got him for fu*k all. Was really looking forward to seeing him play and so glad he's nailed down a spot in the team. Need to keep hold of Chilwell and the future looks bright for that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim5000 Posted 8 February 2016 Share Posted 8 February 2016 I can't believe this man gets so little credit. On match of the day when they were showing how much all the City players cost, they didn't even mention him as a free transfer. He is a perfect left back and I think the best in the league. Everything he is does is correct, it's like he's been coached to perfection, he always does exactly what you would want your left back to do in that situation. He has players in his pocket every single game and barely gets a mention in the media. I think he is one of the key reasons our defence has improved, nothing gets past him on the left.

ceredigion Posted 8 February 2016 Share Posted 8 February 2016 I've only seen one game in the flesh this season. 3-0 against Stoke. Fuchs was immaculate that day, I couldn't believe we'd got him on a free. Like picking up the Mona Lisa for a fiver in a rag and bone shop. Â He was excellent again on Saturday, but maybe a bit lucky not to give away a penalty when it was 0-1. Thank god for the ref there. Â Hopefully, the powers that be will tie his contract down a la Vardy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireFox Posted 8 February 2016 Share Posted 8 February 2016 Hopefully, the powers that be will tie his contract down a la Vardy. He's said he wanted to do 3 years here to earn some more cash before moving to the MLS/America to be with his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M0901 Posted 9 February 2016 Share Posted 9 February 2016 Best left back in the league  You can't fault him. Good going forward, good defensively, good on the ball, is quick, strong, good at set pieces and most importantly for a defender, he's as composed as any full back I can remember  And he cost bugger all  Phenomenal piece of business Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
