Stevosevic Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 Slimani our main goal threat at the moment if we cross enough - big goal against West Ham with hindsight.
ZeGuy Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 They seem to have woken up too late in this competition. Hoefully it won't happen to us.
st albans fox Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 Slim's sly elbow on their keeper says he is more interested in coming back than bagging a hat trick!
VLC86 Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 Why didn't he get on all 4s and roll it in with his noggin?

Finnegan Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 literally just switched the TV on to see Slimani butcher a 1v1. Still, good run behind the defence. We don't give him service like tha-... woah now, that Senegal kit.

STUHILL Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 12 minutes ago, ZeGuy said: 4-4-2 is dead and buried. Who's going to play up with Slim? Shinji? Who's gonna cover for the 2 CB? Ndidi? The guy just came in. Want to see Mahrez get the ball in his own half with three plays at his neck again? How many pigeons and spectators does Albrighton shoot down before putting one decent cross in the box? No, 4-3-3 all the way with gray on the left, Riyad on the right and Slim up front. Hopefully Drinkwater will step up now. Would like this too but did you see the midfield 3 yesterday? Was woeful. Had no idea what they were doing. Drinkwater was constantly being pushed out to the right to cover Simpson and likewise for Mendy on the left. We shipped 3 goals and created nothing. At least in a 4-4-2, the players know the system and know it can work, they just need to work a hell of a lot harder and N'didi needs to be as good as we hope he is. I will give you that on Albrighton, and it may mean Gray has to come in on that side. As for Mahrez being doubled/tripled up on, that will happen no matter what system we play. If Gray does play, we can constantly switch them and Gray is also someone you can't leave 1 on 1 with, so either or both could be drawing many players out of position and so creating more space for others.
Finnegan Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 I do love Slimani. I know he's got the touch of a rapist and he's not scored as many as we were hoping but I can't help but admire a footballer who's so ****ing unashamedly old school. It's why we love Wasyl. He's playing in the most expensive league in the world in some multi million pound stadia yet he plays like he's on Braunstone park playing against a team from the Saff.
brucey Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 Expected that really, Algeria have been playing him even with his known ongoing groin issue, doesn't matter to them as he just gets returned to us. Think similar happened on the last international break, played all their games but came back injured

Yep, he'd have been a great striker in the 1950s

Finnegan Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 Algeria out. Riyad coming home. Slim too but he's ****ed.
Sir Shep Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 So when are they back then? I'm guessing not for the sheep fiddlers.
