tsintskaro Posted 21 August 2016 Share Posted 21 August 2016 To tired of reading what Okazaki has done for his club and about his pressing abilities yes we all know he is great guy,works like a horse and chase every ball but come on,he is a striker! that means he should score or assist or at least create chances none! If Vardy is not in shape or its not his day there is no use of Okazaki because he cant score,cant shot,cant do anything a good striker should and must do enough already with phrasing his work rate,i respect every player who runs a lot but its not fcking enough yeah maybe he will score against Swansea(doubt it),but he is bellow average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the side we put out yesterday and didn't think it seemed clearly any better than last season. I know we drew, but I think that's cos Arsenal have gone a step backwards actually. We can discuss who might start against Swansea but there are no real stand outs. As in players who were going to come in and instantly command a first team spot. Having lost Kante, I'm surprised at this given the Champs League too. We'll see I guess. I think we still are trying to get players in but it's not as easy as you think .. We need to be patient. I also think Musa and Mendy are good additions and will both get better. Our pre season was an almighty PR job and in effect we are doing our pre season work now. The hole Kante has left is huge but we must forget that and move forward ... Comparing this season to last is pointless. By next week we should be getting up to speed and I think CR will keep changes to a minimum as the team gels back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He drops deep to help our midfield, and is there to help link Vardy to the midfield. He's not necessarily there to "score goals", he's there to help the team win the game. If his presence helps us win games, then I don't care if he doesn't score all season. We were noticeably much better when he came on vs. Hull, and I think he was one of the reasons we were much better vs. Arsenal too. Also, he scored some great goals last season.

Okazaki has been superb since he came on against Barcelona, been very good at dribbling and is staying on his feet (dont think he went to ground many times if at all against Arsenal). I was critical of him last year as I felt he wasn't offering enough and fell over too much but as long as he keeps getting the ball up the pitch and link up play I dont mind if he only scores 5 goals this year, we have Vardy and Mahrez to score the goals. Think he could be a good makeshift cm though if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still need some goals from your number ten though. Ulloa looked far better than Okazaki yesterday and he did link up the play and bought Vardy into the game a lot more. I'm disappointed we hadn't bought a proper number ten as Okazaki is pretty limited . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if Mahrez is not that good and is just half that good? in this case there is no need for Okazaki because he alone is lost in last 2 games Vardy and Mahrez struggled and there you go - 1 point,1 goal from peno Leicester had better game against Arsenal because of good team work and solid defence Attack was shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4everfox Posted 21 August 2016 Share Posted 21 August 2016 Swansea are no Arsenal so I would be inclined to approach this one with a more attacking mind set: Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Huth Fuchs Mahrez Amartey Drinkwater Musa Okazaki Vardy Musa has to start for me, he made things happen during his 5 minute cameo at the weekend.

Maybe his goal scoring tally will improve if he's given a follow up season too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightySystem Posted 21 August 2016 Share Posted 21 August 2016 Schmeichel Simpson Morgan Huth Chilwell (Only because he is young and needs experience, imo Fuchs plays top 10 teams and Chilwell plays bottom 10) Mahrez Amartey/King (Would like to see Amartey think he can play the Kante role better then any of our other cm, dont see why we bought him if we aren't going to play him. Can see Ranieri going with King though) Drinkwater Albrighton Okazaki Vardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
