davieG Posted 16 October 2018 Share Posted 16 October 2018 Hit the post but struggling to get in the game where most of the play is down the wings and the centre is very congested. 1 nil to England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 16 October 2018 Share Posted 16 October 2018 https://www.bbc.com/sport/live/football/45740159 Missed a sitter, had a good effort well saved but the BBC said few were looking as dangerous at the end of the match. Seemed to have an okay debut apart from missing the sitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Jay Taylor doesn't understand the definition of "so far this season." 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But such are business deals sometimes. It's been said before but if we really did use him I wouldn't mind him being recalled: recall Benkovic to give Maguire a new partner, buy Clyne to shore up right back and recall Barnes for a better attacking threat. If he reaches a plateau of improvement at West Brom by January then sure recall him for a Prem loan or if we think we will use him ourselves over our already fairly decent attacking players. It’s absolutely not worth risking our reputation or the clubs relationship with the player to squeeze another million out of West Brom.

Barnes will have a much better career. Barnes might be the most eye catching player in the championship but I'm not sure he's the best 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langston Posted 19 October 2018 Share Posted 19 October 2018 (edited) As brilliant as Barnes has been, it's Dwight Gayle - no question for me. Just a shame he seems to fall between that corridor of being far too good for the Championship but just not quite effective enough in the top flight. EDIT - Just had a look at Gayle's top flight goalscoring stats and perhaps I'm doing a bit of a disservice. Bar one season where he flitted in and out of Palace's team he hasn't done that badly considering he's not always playing as an out-and-out striker. Never hit double figures though.

I've had a look at his prem stats since 2013 and he's got 21 goals in 52.3 90s, not bad at all. Obviously there must be a reason he didn't stake a claim for a starting berth at Palace or Newcastle over 4 years though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxed Posted 23 October 2018 Share Posted 23 October 2018 They lost one nil over the weekend. But I wonder if, in time, we could use him with three up front. Barnes Madds Nacho Chillwell Richardo Mendy Ndidi Maguire Benk Soyuncu Kasper Soyuncu is right footed but plays on the he left iirc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Babylon Posted 24 October 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 24 October 2018 From an interview with him on Sky. However, with Chilwell, Harry Maguire, Demarai Gray and James Maddison leading the way for youth at the King Power Stadium, Leicester could be an exciting place to be in seasons to come. "If you look at the side now, there are lot of young players involved," Barnes says. "It is a great club to be at as a young player. If you're doing well, you're going to get your chance." Puel's plan could seriously pay dividends if he can get it together a tad more on the pitch. This stuff doesn't go unnoticed by players, if there is a hot talent available lower down the pyramid and they see us promoting and trusting youth, with them getting rewarded. We could become one of the most attractive propositions around for players to choose. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could become one of the most attractive propositions around for players to choose. The youth development at our club has absolutely transformed over the last couple of seasons. We've gone from an aging squad to: 3 England call ups this season for our young players An established England international in his mid-20s, who was arguably England's player of the tournament at the WC. Several young but experienced internationals who have earned a regular spot in the XI (Iheanacho, Ndidi, Amartey) Another young full international who's still settling in A pair of youngsters who are making an impression out on loan (Benkovic, Barnes) Several young, promising players at GK As you say, on the pitch performances need to improve (can we be good for a full ninety minutes next time please, Mr. Puel?), but we must look a seriously inviting project to any young talent looking to make a break in the PL.

Shane Posted 24 October 2018 Share Posted 24 October 2018 Playing tonight against Derby. West Brom are playing poorly trying to play a passing game against Derby’s high press. But Barnes is their only positive player going forward and has created a few chances for himself out of nothing with some good dribbles into the box. Been unlucky not to score.

Langston Posted 24 October 2018 Share Posted 24 October 2018 Barnes looks about their only player capable of creating anything. Rodriguez has been awful and Hal Robson-Kanu is garbage. Their defence is crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
