Like i really like Albrighton its not a critique and i am a fan but unless Mahrez is playing do you honestly look to Albrighton and say hes gonna do something magic soon and win us this game by himself? My point ultimately is if we lose mahrez then that is the sort of playing we need again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 9 January 2018 Share Posted 9 January 2018 I think Albrighton is so underrated. If he was playing for West Brom he'd have far more assists than Riyad. as it is he has the same number yet is derised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHitman™ Posted 9 January 2018 Share Posted 9 January 2018 (edited) Sisto is a player that I think could be a nice young and inexpensive replacement for Mahrez when he leaves. He's of a similar mold to Eriksen and plays on the same national team so he is getting that experience. Also he was one of the key players for Denmark in their WC Qualifiers. I also saw him when Celta played United in the Europa League and he created a ton of chances, the only problem is they have Garbage strikers like Guidetti. Also sisto seems like a very "Puel Signing". Edited 9 January 2018 by TheHitman™ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf Riyad would have a lot more if people didn’t keep wasting the chances he crafted. Or incompetent officials didn’t keep flagging for offside when it isn’t.

If he was playing for West Brom he'd have far more assists than Riyad. as it is he has the same number yet is derised. Whilst Albrighton is clearly underrated, he has definitely improved under Puel / in Puel's system. In both of the last two seasons he has scored 2 goals and had 6 assists in premier league games. This season after 22 games played, he already has the same total. So given that he's likely to have his best ever total for the club, I think you can say he has become more effective recently, as we've clearly seen on the pitch. The new system gives more chances and opportunities to Mahrez, Albrighton and Gray. And whilst it's true that he doesn't get the praise that Mahrez gets, I don't think there are many fans who don't appreciate what Marc does for us. Those that see him play every week know how important he is to the team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shen Posted 9 January 2018 Share Posted 9 January 2018 4 hours ago, somebum said: Another one. Fast in leg, slow in head. No thanks He's an instinctive player. His game has developed a lot at Celta and I believe his awareness will only improve. He's the type who will assist more than score himself. Whenever I've seen him play and in interviews, he comes across as a sensitive but confident lad, who's visibly taking more and more responsibility with time. 3 hours ago, Ted Maul said: Seen him play once, against Ireland. He was dross, just reminded me of Musa. He provided the key moment that burst Ireland's bubble in Dublin.

He was used to dominating fullbacks in Denmark and has obviously found out things aren't as easy in Spain or in international football. He'd need time to adapt to English football for sure. 50 minutes ago, TheHitman™ said: Sisto is a player that I think could be a nice young and inexpensive replacement for Mahrez when he leaves.

Also sisto seems like a very "Puel Signing". Eriksen and Sisto are technical players, but really, I would say they're world's apart and not worthy of comparison. Wouldn't say he was key to our WC qualifiers either, he was in and out of the team and put in several indifferent/poor performances. He's mainly in the team because we desperately lack any kind of flair. He's one with potential who could flourish, so you might be right about him being a "Puel type", but much would depend on whether he could adjust to the physical demands of English football.

No point in having the brains if your body is unable to execute it. And since these don't come by cheaply for a team like ours, you will have to develop players that are a bit raw in areas. Sisto, like Gray, has potential. To me he just seems a bit more level-headed than our Demmy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
