Buzzell Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 Star in the making. This lad is going to be a class act in a few years and hopefully a future England international.
trampslikeus Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 He certainly seems to be the 'real deal' and will surely get more game time next season. His willingness to try stuff is excellent considering his young age, isnt it?.
TheMightySystem Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 How much did he cost us again? Around 5 million I think as he had a release clause, absolute steal
stevelcfc Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 This guy is going to be incredible, just a shame it seems like he can't help keep his mate grounded and at the club.
Thracian Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 We'll see about him being "incredible". He's progressing well so far but, just like Chilwell, is going to need game time to really break through.
Gerard Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 3.5 million I believe. Less than Bradley Johnson 3.75m to b pedantic. He's brilliant for 19 when he's been allowed to be let of the leash and is obviously an intelligent lad as when he's come on when we're a goal up he's managed his role well and not played for himself by trying to overly impress. You just get the feeling there's a lot more to come as he can learn from Mahrez, Albrighton and Schlupp as they're all different kind of wingers. He still has a boyish look about him physically and imagine he'll be a lot more dynamic in the year or so when the training team put a bit more muscle on him for strength and explosive pace. An absolute steal at the price.
ScouseFox Posted 13 May 2016 Posted 13 May 2016 We'll see about him being "incredible". He's progressing well so far but, just like Chilwell, is going to need game time to really break through. hasn't he made 12 appearances already? at 19 in 4 months with the club? in a season where we've won the league? not only is he getting game time, he's already broken through. he's almost guaranteed a squad place every week and nearly always comes off the bench.

Still doesn't make him incredible though.... yet
TheMightySystem Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Gray prehaps feeling like he deserves more of a chance? Cant say I blame him really with Mahrez's form of late. Think we need to give the younger players a start in the champions league games to prove themselves. Im talking Chilwell, Amartey, Gray, Kapustka and Musa. And before anyone says that they are too young, why bother buying or developing younger players if you dont trust them to play in games, might as well close the academy if thats the case. We spent a combined £31 million on them (£15 million without Musa) Surely if we are spending that much on them then they must be good enough as a rotation option at least. If they play well then start them against Burnley, show them that they will be rewarded, it would be even easier to intergrate them as I dont think any players could complain if they were dropped after the Liverpool game.
KFS Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 I know what I'll do, I'll post a tweet about how I'm frustrated that I'm not getting game time; that'll really get Claudio thinking about me starting the next game...
foxes21 Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Wtf at that tweet? To be honest, against Hull & in pre-season he has been playing selfishly. Shooting when there is a pass on, trying to do it all by himself and not playing for the team. That's why he's been dropped. And this tweet sums it up. He's thinking about himself, not the team. A shame because last season he came off the bench, followed Ranieri's instructions and helped us grind out results.
foxes_rule1978 Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Silly tweet, but one out of frustration... i understand the team starting as it did today, we did well against Swansea, they won us the league.. he will realise that, and if this continues he will get his opportunity
AlgerianFox Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 This player is electric...but with very low voltage. You have already seen all his best...and I really wish that Claudio bench Mahrez few games.
st albans fox Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Gray tweeted 'Impatient'. i hope that's not a reference to him getting on the pitch. if if is, needs to be behind closed doors with the manager/coaches, not on social media.

KFS Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Gray's deleted his bio after someone pointed out that it says "Patience"

Have to agree, has been given opportunities but came across as selfish, abit like sturridge. He needs to take a leaf out of Marcus Rashfords book, let his football do the talking.
VLC86 Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Patient, impatient? Make up your mind lad so confusing.
Benji Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Are we sure he's not just sat in Nandos and the food is taking too long? Or shall we just assume he's an ungrateful rat, I guess that's more fun.
Fox92 Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Won't be long before we lose him. Superb at Birmingham, shows glimpses of his potential here but can't get in the team. Granted he was selfish at Hull (also won the penalty by running at them) but when you've got as much potential as Gray (and Chilwell) you've got to be picking up some first team football or else that'll stifle. If his tweet was regarding his first team football I'm not surprised. We seem to have too many attacking players now.
lgfualol Posted 10 September 2016 Posted 10 September 2016 Stupid tweet showing his age. He probably would have played today if Simpson didnt go off injured.

Immature for sure, the question he should ask himself is, what premier league winner do I deserve to replace? he did it out of frustration I feel and regrets it.
