Really worried we have our premier league equivalent of Jermaine Beckford here Offered so much on paper, but barely touched the surface on the pitch You may well be right .. And I may well agree with you ... But at the moment in Claude we trust ... He must have seen him in training, spoke to him and told him what he wants him to do. He will give him a chance .. And then decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usafox1 Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Ridiculous! Only in Leicester will Okazaki and Ihenacho be fighting for minutes. At this point Iheanacho is probably regretting coming to Leicester. He’s the best goal scoring threat we have and must be intergrated into the lineup ASAP if we want to do well. If if we want to remain between 15th and relegation then by all means play Okazaki and Gray ahead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Nacho Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Why is he getting stick when he was playing out of position against one of the best teams this country has ever seen (apart from us) in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue ROI Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 He hasnt really had much of a start yet but the omens are not good. He has already been spoken of as one of the biggest disappointments of the league. With Slim on the way out there'll be more chances but something tells me we've got a bit of a dud signing here.

Mid you think it’s possible to out run and work other teams every game then Okazaki is your man. If u want real ballers that can flat out put the ball in the net then Ihenacho is the man.

Callabinho Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Talking to two Man City lads on the walk back. They really rate him, say he’s quality in front of goal when he gets a chance.... I thinks it’s more out ability to accommodate him. Which seems to be a theme when we sign strikers..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u want real ballers that can flat out put the ball in the net then Ihenacho is the man. Vardy is our best finisher and starts every time if fit. Against Man City who are so dominant in midfield you can't play two strikers against them as you're overrun, torn apart and exposed in midfield with only two(unless you have N'Golo), so you drop a striker in place for a midfielder as Puel said on the radio, he went with Albrighton. His choice didn't work and Shinji probably would have done a better job dropping in, he also scored a peach last time he came up against these. Iheanacho needs game time, his position and preferred role is obviously less of a concern. We also have Slimani, Ulloa and Shinji seemingly in reserve which shows how poorly the squad has been balanced and that's before deadwood like Musa are even mentioned.

Foxxed Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 He needs someone to supply him with opportunities. We simply don't have that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not even close to being the issue. The issue is Jamie Vardy, he will always be the focal point on the last man due to his pace and imo that’s KIs best position. We either learn how to play them both together or he flops here, simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st albans fox Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 We have the same problem as Spurs do with Kane. Spurs can't sign a quality backup to Kane because they won't pay big enough wages for someone good to sit on the bench and Kane always starts if fit like vardy. we have bought better back ups than Spurs have and yet there is no intention to play anyone other than vardy. when Ibra is match fit I bet lukaku gets rotated a bit. We need to grow some and give vardy the odd game off when the opposition suits. Then kelechi/slim will get a chance. It may take until after Xmas when silva comes into the side for us to develop a setup and style which is more suited to KI only then will we see what we have bought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterborofox Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Not really impressed with but was in a position which is not his own. But looks a waste of money for me. Vardy hasn't found a partner better than Okazaki and that's worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would help if we signed a player who plays the number 10 role instead of going through to whole squad trying to find an alternative. We've had years but our transfer activity has just been purchase center forwards, why when we only play Vardy there? When Okazaki hasn't played it's been target men (Slimani/Ulloa) and asking them to the job playing off Vardy. Now I wonder why that hasn't worked.

Harry - LCFC Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Been hugely disappointing so far. I was confident he'd have 3+ goals by now but he hasn't even looked particularly threatening. The lack of minutes isn't a good excuse - he scored loads off the bench at Man City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usafox1 Posted 18 November 2017 Share Posted 18 November 2017 Vardy is the best striker if everybody else on the team is working to get him the ball, that’s why Okazaki fits him. If you have a real ball playing striker that needs intricate passing than Vardy is a terrible partner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant even remember him having a shot in any league games. If I recall he was deadly in the box for man city. We lump it to vardy or cross which isnt really his game.

foxes21 Posted 19 November 2017 Share Posted 19 November 2017 Kelechi needs to prove himself at number 9 during the Christmas period, to give Claude something to think about. The only way Kelechi makes it here is as a CF, because he doesn't seem capable playing behind the striker. Obviously even if he does well, Vardy is still 1st choice but I wouldn't be against rotating the pair now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Realist Guy In The Room Posted 19 November 2017 Share Posted 19 November 2017 The issue I have with him is usually if a player has quality, you can see it even if he’s not fit or playing out of position. This bloke looks bloody awful. He doesn’t really appear to be able to do anything well. He must be a good player given how highly Man City rate him and the buyback clause they insisted on, but right now, I can’t see any reason why he’s anywhere near the first team.

Farrington fox Posted 19 November 2017 Share Posted 19 November 2017 All the hype over this lad pre signing and now he’s a dud, hero to zero in what, 2 Months! At present he needs a run in the side, and I just can’t see it happening, same with Slim. 30 mil for him and he will and does get ye goals but rarely gets a look in. At the moment,our attacking options are built around Vards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't happen then as he's not going to replace Vardy unless it's just Cup matches.. Weird signing in the first place as he just doesn't fit into our system, not only that though, he looks slow, weighty and his first touch is Ulloaesque!
