Guest the fox Posted 31 December 2016 Posted 31 December 2016 Once again, slimani proves that he has what it takes to win us games. And like an other poster here pointed out, it seems quite here. If he is criticized after a bad game. Then, he should be praised after a match winning performance
Webbo Posted 31 December 2016 Posted 31 December 2016 He actually attacked the ball today. He didn't do a lot second half but tbf we were hardly in their half.
Monsell1976 Posted 31 December 2016 Posted 31 December 2016 Play to his strengths he will get goals, was a quality ball, and he took it well. As the game went on, the play got scrappy, and we didn't play to his strengths, playing hit and hope balls, and he struggled. Second half with vardy pace,( obviously if he wasn't suspended), and slimani playing off him, I think vardy would have been a great outlet, when we hit panic stations, and I think slimani would have got a couple more today

Weirdly enough quality crosses with pace went in that game. All I'm seeing at the minute is high lofted crosses. You need to pin teams back to use crossing effectively because you can't score headers from your own half. Everton sat back late into the game so Ulloa could get into the box for a cross. You slate Slimani for not getting into the box but he'd be 40 yards offside. His touch was woeful though. Just because I'm a smug cvnt.
HighPeakFox Posted 31 December 2016 Posted 31 December 2016 Thank f**k Slim is Nigerian, no need to worry about the AFCON...
KrefelderFox666 Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 Glad he scored yesterday and shut a few people up. People banging about the price tag, now we won the league we have to pay premiums unfortunately. Let's hope he continues to show why we paid that money, I think he will
The People's Hero Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 Getting really confused this all this Nigeria talk? Doesn't matter does it? Euros are always in the close season.
Ric Flair Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 He was a man possessed yesterday. Relentless. Great to see. Get balls whipped in to him and he'll hurt teams. Best clinical finisher with his head in the league.
Old Fox Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 I was one who criticised him against Everton and still remain to be convinced. However his work rate and effort yesterday was brilliant and hopefully be proved wrong consistently.

But one of the close ups on slim looked like his eyes were bloodshot against Everton. May have been playing a bit under the weather. He certainly didn't seem right
Dr The Singh Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 He looked like a £15m striker yesterday, but is improving, which is good

foxy boxing Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 He needs the service more, he is excellent at heading the ball and with the wingers we have we should be playing to his strengths. Is always looking for the ball and the service so let's give it to him in the right way
foxes21 Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 Depending on opposition, rotating Vardy/Slimani at CF and playing to their strengths is the way forward I think.
Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 He seems very dangerous when decent crosses are whipped over. Between Albrighton (right side) and Fuchs / Chilwell we should be giving him a bit more quality. Not to mention Riyads left peg.
Simoken Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 £30 million well spent30 Million well spent? You are having a laugh. Technical ability is bloody awfully awkward to watch, slow on the ball.. fww more points of worry but no way valued at that price. Hes supposed to be an upgrade for Ulloa and hes just not that in my eyes.This is down to money hungry european clubs that need €€€ and take advantage of rich PL clubs and demand premium and it will only get worse. Hes 10 million at best.Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Slim Dog Posted 1 January 2017 Posted 1 January 2017 People clearly wanted someone that you give the ball to and then does the rest by himself.
