West Brom (H) Next Up

Maybe we just need the right manager to make use of the obvious talent we have in the squad.

 

We've bought good players but they look poor with us. I'm beginning to think we need a brand new start and some fresh ideas, we've got the players now let's get the best it of them.

Come off it. 

 

We have not relied on Mahrez

for about 15 months; he’s got 4 assists in that time (a lot less than Albrighton) and maybe 4 goals in open play in the league in that time (1/4 of Vardy).

 

Just get a good manager in ffs.

Well yeah I agree a good manager but I don’t think we have as much creativity as we should.

 

Take a game like Man Utd for example, we didn’t score but our only threat on a consistent basis was from Mahrez.

Surely Musa is worth a place on the bench at least.

 

He may be crap but his pace can unsettle teams in the last 10 - 15 minutes.

Have you seen him play?

 

Ahead of Kelechi, Slim, Mahrez or Ulloa on the bench from an attacking perspective .......I think not!

The only thing that's unsettling is you don't know what he's looking at due to his home and away eyes

The thing with pace is you have to know where you are going when you use it. This cnut would run into a burning building

West Brom are a big group of players. We'll need to start Iborra in what should be a much easier game for him than against Bournemouth.

 

Kasper

 

Morgan 

Maguire

Dragovic

 

Ndidi

Iborra

Amartey

 

Mahrez

Gray

 

Iheanacho

Vardy

 

but we all know it'll be

 

Kasper

 

Simpson

Morgan

Maguire

Fuchs

 

Mahrez

Ndidi

King

Gray

 

Okazaki

 

Vardy

He was that day I agree.

 

When you boil it down of the usual 11 there are only two threats.

 

All I’m saying is Mahrez’s perceived threat isn’t coming to anything anymore, not even creating chances let alone assists or scoring.

 

That said I do now feel this season the vast majority of the problems are now solely down the the manager not even trying to change things for the better.

Haha the game would have a fair few goals in at least if we played anything like that.

 

4-6 or something I'd imagine

Id drop Maguire if Huth is 100% at least for a try out.

We need defenders in the middle rather than Mr gung ho.

Yeah all hail to the hoofballers! Let them all return and make the team even crappier.

Unbelievable isn't it. Why do people want every bit of creativity out the team.

 

No Gray or Mahrez, yet stick with Albrighton. No Maguire but put Huth in lol

He's a Schlupp clone, IMO. Might as well have that option available.

As striker not a chance in hell. As winger, as Long as Albrighton, Gray, Mahrez aren't injured, he won't make it to the bench.

 

Like Pirelli once said, power is nothing without control.

I'm reaching my understanding limits.

 

We are one of the poorest teams when it comes to passing, yet people want to remove one of the fews who can control a ball, because of ONE mistake.

 

Albrighton has been shit since Arsenal yet people still want to bench Mahrez.

 

Nacho is already called a flop by some, although we saw naught from him.

 

Some have difficulties to grasp the concept of modern football and the importance of passing.

McClean anywhere near the starting 11? Hope not so the Rangers Loyal mob might actually have to support the team.

It's embarrassing. West Brom away year before last I had some idiot behind me and he just abused McClean all game.

Think Maguire as played ok not sure what he's done to deserve to be dropped he's had a couple of mad moments but ain't they all?

Agree. 

 

I like defenders coming out with the ball - all the great defenders were good at it - just need to make sure Ndidi (or whoever is playing as the holding/ball winning midfielder) sits in, which didn't happened when we did concede the third to Liverpool.

I'd really like to see us get Mahrez Vardy Iheanacho and Gray on the pitch at the same time and let them develop over a few games so they can build an understanding.

 

We seem to be playing with so much fear at the moment it's shit just plain shit.

 

Let's get our best players on the pitch and see what happens if iborra and Iheanacho are lacking fitness then start them and sub them when they're tired so they can build match fitness.

 

A few minutes here and there doesn't help their confidence or match practice and the player always feels like they have to prove themselves which doesn't really help.

 

I'd like to see

 

Vardy upfront

Gray Iheanacho Mahrez

Iborra Ndidi holding midfielders

Fuchs Maguire Dragovic Simpson

 

4-2-3-1

vardy has 3 openplay goals this season, that's 1 more than shinji has in the league,  (plus a missed pen and a tap in a few yards away with no one in goal, which led to the team missing on another potantial 4 points, that's the same amount of points that we have now!) 

yes, it's a small sample, but as you can see, we all can twist words the way we like.

 

and to take it even further, because you apparently can't be able to count pen goals, vardy only once from open play since week 1

 because you like to beat riyad with a stick every chance you can get, we can even talk about riyad's pen record vs vardy, riyad took 13 pens with leicester, scoring 9 and missing 4 (should've been 10 scored and 3 missed but the ref can aparantly see riyad sliping and hitting the ball 2 times but not the man city players entering the box before he hit it). while vardy took 9, scoring 7 and missing 2

it's about 78% conversion rate for vardy and about 70% for riyad (riyad could've had a 77% conversion rate if not for that man city pen). not as bad as ppl make it out to be.

 

a blind man can see that wingers can't do thier job in this formation, a change must happen
