Or are you assuming sixteen 0-0 draws will keep us up? =) You have a good day sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the Algerian press have targeted him for their early exit, and all the fans are sticking up for him. Even weirder, after he had 2 goals and 1 assist in 3 games. I tend to always think fans have more realistic views, so it's good to see so much support for him and many say how good he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All started with some fans that claimed that Slimani didnt want to talk to them. And few days after, they said he insult them. We all know that Slimani is a nice guy, always respectful, and always present for Charity. We need to know that Slimani is emotional, and dislike rumors like this. The Algerian people, wanted to show that they are with him by the hasgtag #je_suis_Slimani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk3since03 Posted 26 January 2017 Share Posted 26 January 2017 Slimani will have dollar signs in his eyes, he's not going to be intrested in a relegation battle Mahrez will have the hump so i'm not counting on Slim and Mahrez rescuing the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deep blue Posted 26 January 2017 Share Posted 26 January 2017 13 hours ago, Struwwelpeter60 said: But you and many others were clamouring week after week to get rid of 442, and I am on record in this forum with the warning, that changing formations in the middle of the season is like changing horses in the middle of the river. Possible, but risky. It's really a strange, strange world. I think the point is that people were clamouring for a change from 4-4-2 because we didn't have the players to make it work at the start of the season. It only worked last season, without our central midfield being overrun, because of the amazing ability of Kante - reading the game and being in exactly the right position so often, his coverage of the crucial areas of the pitch, his interceptions and tackling, and his ability to spring from defence to attack so quickly. We started this season trying to play the same formation and style, but with a much less adequate midfield (and compounded by injuries etc that weakened it even further). Thus the call for 3 in central midfield to help us to regain control. Ironically, now that we have recruited a much more look-alike Kante in Ndidi (admittedly that feeling may be a bit premature, not yet proven) and there are grounds for believing that we can now make 4-4-2 work again like last season, Ranieri has belatedly started to experiment with 3 in central midfield, and even with the diamond. Hardly surprising that many contributors on here are scratching their heads. Whatever system we adopt, I hope that the players can now start games with more of an up-and-at-em attitude, pressing as a team, and showing more attacking intent. A return to those attitudes will, in my view, reap dividends whatever system we employ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a problem with the fact, that someone is not sharing your point of view, a forum like this one is perhaps the wrong place for you. You know, if you can't stand the heat... Done with you.

Chrysalis Posted 26 January 2017 Share Posted 26 January 2017 mahrez is still a quality player, he is been held back by the rest of the team currently, and really needs to be given free license to roam and stay close to vardy or whoever else is playing up there instead of spending too much time defending.

Bryn Posted 26 January 2017 Share Posted 26 January 2017 I'd cut our losses on Slimani and sell him if the reported 40m is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My initial thought was that it was a lot of money for someone who is 29 and hasn't exactly set the league on fire but unless we get someone else in that is better in the next few days can we really afford to sell him? An already miserable season would have been considerably worse without Slims contribution and he may just get the goals to keep us up. Relegation, with the new contracts in place, is unthinkable. Given the way we're playing, I don't give us much chance of progressing in the CL but I'd rather have Slim in the team or on the bench if we somehow play well and give ourselves a chance against Sevilla.
