The_77 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 We should sign him, if only for this: http://www.foxestalk.co.uk/forums/topic/101620-nampalys-mendy/?p=3496492 Cuz we be gettin' hyped to the sound of Nampalys!
foxes21 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 They would step on each other toes. They are way to similar to play together. It is either Mendy or Kanté. they aren't similar tho. apart from they r black, french, nd hobbit sized.
The_77 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 they aren't similar tho. apart from they r black, french, nd hobbit sized. Yep. I see Mendy as more of an Inler upgrade.
MC Prussian Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 69 OR DOGGY He's usually right behind you. CDM duties.
Lcfcwigstonblue Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 We could always play 4-2-3-1 with the same back four, then Mendy Kante - Mahrez - Drinkwater - Musa- Vardy
goose2010 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 No one knew kanté would hit the ground running! This guy could just as well, seems a good price to.
HEGGSY Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Totally different to Kante and plays in a midfield three rather than a two. God knows if he'll adapt to being in a two, Ranieri obviously a big fan though. They would step on each other toes. They are way to similar to play together. It is either Mendy or Kanté. So which one is he? Totally different or way too similar
Fox 4 Life Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Sounds like the club are holding out for another 6m euros, wonder if we will up the bid. Would love this as I think Kante will go unfortunately
The_77 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Makes a lot of passes in the defensive half but a 92% completion rate? Yes, please.
tsintskaro Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Makes a lot of passes in the defensive half but a 92% completion rate? Yes, please. yeah,i saw that too besides defence,he will make some good passes forward http://www.squawka.com/comparison-matrix#ligue_1/2015/2016/nampalys_mendy/167/167/3285/0/p|premier_league/2015/2016/n$golo_kanté/165/165/14999/0/p#successful_take_ons/total_passes/pass_completion#total
st albans fox Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Sounds like the club are holding out for another 6m euros, wonder if we will up the bid. Would love this as I think Kante will go unfortunately They can whistle for the extra. Vardy has just knicked it!
Kitchandro Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Makes a lot of passes in the defensive half but a 92% completion rate? Yes, please. Not really a relevant stat to the way we play though!
dpjfox Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 not too expensive and as he played for CR previously he willknow if he can adapt to our system,imo worth signing , to occassionally rest Kante or maybe replace him, makes better sense than Wanyama or NZonzi
FireFox Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 We could always play 4-2-3-1 with the same back four, then Mendy Kante - Mahrez - Drinkwater - Musa- VardyI don't think Drinky could play that role, not effectively enough at least. Maybe being more defensive in a 4-3-3. Or no Drinky, Mahrez behind and with Albrighton. And Ulloa up top, no Vardy.
kingfox Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 So which one is he? Totally different or way too similar Comparing the two Mendy plays as a DM, doesn't get forward, doesn't really tackle but keeps things ticking over passing wise, his passing is miles better than Kante & Drinky.
The_77 Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Not really a relevant stat to the way we play though! We played a certain style because Ranieri understood it would get the most out of our existing personnel. That doesn't mean that we're bound to stick with a 4-4-2 counter, especially as the roster starts to change.
LCFC FOX Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Zieler Hernandes Mendy Musa Slimani Deeney Wouldn't be a bad summer of players coming in! I'd be very happy. Maybe a different winger to Musa and maybe a right back, but I reckon Amartey will be trained there
Dames Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Not really a relevant stat to the way we play though! Could be useful though as there were quite a few occasions last season where misplaced short passes in the defensive third set teams right back on us, luckily we were not overly punished in that respect but I imagine its something opposition teams will be targeting next season.

Kanye only occasionally misplaced his pass just so he could go get it back again.
MPH Posted 6 June 2016 Posted 6 June 2016 Not really a relevant stat to the way we play though! Gets the ball, sideways pass to Drinky, BOOM! Someone's in with a chance.
