lgfualol Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 He'll score against Chelsea and this thread will be full of praise. Joint top scorer in the league for us remember. Has more goals than all our wingers combined. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danno Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 People aren’t writing him off are they? Just questioning his attitude and the letting off he often gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityfanlee23 Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 I think his attitude is positive but undisciplined, he also lacks concentration but that comes with being an inexperienced player at this level. Needs time but he also needs a mentor, we have absolutely nobody commanding his position that he is forced to compete with. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rorab Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 I think he's both our best creative player and also simultaneously a bit of a tosser. Provided he cuts out the acting a bit like a tosser and plays well, like he did today, then I'm fine with him - I think we need what he brings to the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frany104 Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 A decent player but nothing more. I thought he would be the signing to take us into the next level but he has been average. He’s overrated in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rachhere Posted 18 December 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 18 December 2018 Wow ok! He’s in his first season in the premier league, has scored goals, got assists and has made more of an impact in that 10 role than anyone else in recent seasons. If he hadn’t come in this season, where do you think we would be right now? He also seems a nice enough guy to me, and seems to have made a difference in bringing the players together more socially, which can only be a good thing for team spirit. He’s made an effort to recognise the fans at games - notably his first home match, and also when he came back from his red card he signaled his apologies. Yes he has a lot to learn, but if we are honest that’s why he is with us now and not someone like Liverpool. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 (edited) He’s a rookie in the top flight. It shows at times. The maturity will come. Like Chilwell.

CloudFox Posted 18 December 2018 Share Posted 18 December 2018 Bit silly for him to post that so soon after a game, but you know what? He's 22 and meeting up with a mate after a shit end to an evening. Cut him some slack. I can't account for all the stuff people say he's done in the past, but every interview he's done while he's been here he's seemed pretty down to earth. He's in his first season as a Prem player, our main creative outlet, but he has a few attitude creases to iron out. Give. Him. Time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it was put here to show an example of his questionable dress sense which is irrelevant to bring up really when it’s his off-pitch attitude amd his on-pitch performance which are currently up for criticism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well a) silly of me not to have looked at the date and b) shame on the poster for fishing like that since it said Manchester! FFS why do we care what our players wear outside of the club?! If they wear our shirt on the day that's all that matters. Thanks for clarifying @brucey, much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Beechey Posted 19 December 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 19 December 2018 (edited) Jesus Christ. Some of the divas on the last couple of pages. Who gives a toss whether he has a necklace, whether he's friends with Grealish or what he said in some club when he was like 19 and drunk? I care about what he produces on the pitch, and so far he's one of our best players this season. Genuinely, I wonder if there's a fanbase that goes out of their own way to dislike their own players as much as Leicester fans seem to. He's our joint-top goalscorer and joint-second place assister this season. He produces more key passes than any other player in our squad and has created more chances than anyone else, comfortably. Maybe if we had another player that could do similar whenever he failed to deliver it wouldn't seem so bad. Same issue with Mahrez, our team ticked when he ticked.

MPH Posted 19 December 2018 Share Posted 19 December 2018 (edited) he’s a young lad playing prem football for the first time and is borderline our standout star. too right he’s going to big himself up a bit. Puts a shift in most games and delivers the goods too. misplaced frustration if he is the one you want to pick on.

The first thing I noticed with him that annoyed me was when we were 3-1 up against Huddersfield and he tried some back heel flick in mid air when he could have just easily controlled in normally. That doesn't sit well with me, disrespectful to the opponent. Wouldn't like it if the opposition did that to us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ithuriel Posted 19 December 2018 Share Posted 19 December 2018 He does have qualiteee but he needs to sort his head out in regards where you pass the ball, last night he nearly cost us a second goal with a back pass so awful it was beyond measure, though it would have saved us the awful penalties.

Popular Post Finnegan Posted 19 December 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 19 December 2018 Find it interesting that Maddison has 2 assists in 1237 Premier league minutes (that's about 13.7 games) which is, what, one every 7 games? Meanwhile Iheanacho has 3 assists in 811 PL minutes (9.01 games) which is one every 3. Iheanacho has been turned in to a figure of ridicule for, largely, being crap as a number 9 despite stating his preference to play at 10. Meanwhile, Maddison is heralded as our Lord Creator. They're the same age, one has been sent off for diving this year and gets treated like a hero, the other has created more for Jamie Vardy in less time yet gets cheered ironically off the pitch when he's subbed. ****ing disgrace the way we treat Iheanacho, frankly. He's called "lazy", yet I've seen him running around closing defenders down. I personally don't think he's lazy, he runs around as much as Maddison, he's just being expected to play as a 9 and move like a 9 which he has no idea how to do. He's not a centre forward. Maddison has weighed in with more goals and plays significantly more key passes per game (2.3 vs 0.8), generally out to the wingers, which is his default. But for all the excitement about how Maddison would be slotting through balls to Vardy, Iheanacho gets much closer to him, gives him far more support and has assisted more goals for him than JM. Now I'm not claiming Iheanacho is better, I'd probably still play Maddison and I'd probably still play Maddison at 10 (he's dogshit at left mid) but it's definitely food for thought. 23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good post I think we should alternate between Maddison and Nacho behind the striker. Problem is we are a striker short so we have to play Kelechi on top alone when Vardy is out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
