st albans fox Posted 18 April 2015 Share Posted 18 April 2015 Some nice little touches when he came on. Really hope he can eventually get back to the danny of last season Would like to see him in a three next week. I suspect we will be more positive than that though.

Izzy Posted 18 April 2015 Share Posted 18 April 2015 He's always been excellent in my book. You don't become a shite player over a few months. He's hungry, been held back, starved of first team football and desperate to prove his point. That Pearson is a clever b'stard if you think about it.

Izzy Posted 18 April 2015 Share Posted 18 April 2015 I wouldn't put it past Pearson to do exactly that! AK must be chomping at the bit! Pearson has used his squad wisely and those that have been rested are fit and raring to go. Smart management in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ttfn Posted 18 April 2015 Share Posted 18 April 2015 I thought he was totally out of his depth for the first 10 minutes he was on but came into it at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpe's Fox Posted 18 April 2015 Share Posted 18 April 2015 Going to go out there and say he will be our player of the year next season, whatever league he's in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasmic123 Posted 19 April 2015 Share Posted 19 April 2015 people were actually saying he's been diabolical this season? Sub-par, yes. Diabolical, absolutely not. looked good yesterday, showed composure on the ball and i'd like to see him playing next season when King's no longer in his purple patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 30 June 2017 Share Posted 30 June 2017 On a positive note Drinkwater since he's been here has alternated between poor and brilliant seasons meaning next year he's due another good one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do you regret this one now? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertfox2 Posted 1 July 2017 Share Posted 1 July 2017 3 goals in 3 prem seasons is the worry I have with Drinkwater. He needs to score more. he's had Cambiasso Kante and half a season with Ndidi. A top player should be aiming at least half a dozen playing with those. We need to score more from players other than Vardy and Mahrez. If he can chip in with more goals then it would take him to the next level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unclenobhead Posted 1 July 2017 Share Posted 1 July 2017 There are those out there that say Kante's biggest achievement while with us was getting Drinkwater an England cap, not saying I agree just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially not with the style of play Leicester adopt. Do you expect him to put a 60yard ball over the top for Vardy and get in the box to finish the move off?

I love DD as a player and every other aspect of his game is top draw. Even though he wasn't at his best last season, but neither were the side. But I remember reading In Fergusons book for example regardless of how good a CM was he always asked himself will he get me enough goals from midfield. DD scored 8 for us in the Championship promotion season. 3 in 3 prem seasons is not enough for someone of his calibre. He can and should be banging in a few more.

He was about the only player that turned up at the start of the season IMO, but then drifted as the season went on. Apparently was struggling with injury for most of the year.

WigstonWanderer Posted 1 July 2017 Share Posted 1 July 2017 He seemed to become very negative in the season just gone. Always the backward pass or return ball for no obvious reason. And constantly angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
