He can be clinical. Last game we didn’t give him the right play. I have confidence in him and I hope we see that quality tomorrow. We work together with the attacking players to improve in front of goal. He’s a young player. It can be difficult for someone who is 22 to come into the starting team. Fair play to Puel, he's backing his young players to the hilt. can’t reallt sell a player when you tell everyone he’s got the combined skill or a bag of turds.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerrrFox Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 The least I expect of any player is to put a ****ing shift in. There was one point in the first half where Pereira and Mendy did well to win the ball back in our box. All the lazy **** playing upfront needed to do was run the channel to stretch the play and threaten in behind but inside he stood behind Dier and in front of Vertonghen scratching his ****ing arse. He think he’s better than he is and is lazier than a ****ing lapdog. Absolutely ****ing woeful and I don’t wanna see the **** in a Leicester shirt again. At least Slimani put himself about and gave it 100% effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on tonight's performance alone I wouldnt say anyone played much better. Maddison Chilwell and Gray behind him were no better, possibly worse if im honest, but because he's up top and cost a bomb and everyone is thinking about Vardy he gets booed. When your striker doesnt have a single fuchin chance its not just him you need to worry about; maybe he's not even the 1st thing you need to worry about! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 And to think at one point Iheanacho was in my dream team ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tielemans63 Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 The thing that enraged me today was that he was going toward the centre halves almost as if he didn't want the ball. I get that he's low on confidence but that's unforgivable when you're being paid north of 50k a week. He barely tried to stretch the Spurs defence. His movement was shite basically.

I genuinely can’t tell if your taking the piss or not. Ok, maybe its a step too far The logic is this though: they didnt create anything and their job is to provide chances. His job was to get on the end of chances and nobody created any for him And when he received the ball he laid it off well a few times and we staryed going forwads only for Gray Chilwell or Maddison to not provide us with a chance I actually wouldnt slate their performamces, although Madders was frustrating towards the end. Just using the comparison to make a point If Vardy had had an identical game to Nacho he wouldt be getting this criticism. And he's had loads of similar games to that Edited 8 December 2018 by AlloverthefloorYesNdidi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty98 Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 I want to back him but he's just lazy, which is one thing I'll never accept from anyone, constantly gave their back line loads of time on the ball to pick a pass out. Striker is a must in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 Remember when we were all soiling our undies about wether or not Nacho would have a buy back option in his contract? What a waste of forum space those 50 odd pages were. As long as Man City covered his bus fayre, i'd let him go for nowt. Providing ofcourse that he can find the bus station better than he can find the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your striker doesnt have a single fuchin chance its not just him you need to worry about; maybe he's not even the 1st thing you need to worry about! I think the issue is that Vardy causes problems for teams and gives them something to think about even when we aren't playing well. Spurs knew they could just attack as they had no worries about Iheancho causing any issues. I know Vardy and iheancho can't be compared as they are different players but I just don't feel spurs even once considered Iheancho to be a threat. Teams are always wary of Vardy and know if they switch off for a second he can punish you. If you switch off for a second with Iheancho it takes him 5 seconds to realise. Doesnt suit us at all and by having no attacking threat teams can just throw men forward with no worries about defending and that means our defence gets overrun and eventually we cave.

Because the defender was right on him, and if he turned towards goal he'd just lose the ball, like any striker would. Instead he held the ball up and looked for support, which was lacking. He didn't do badly under the circumstances today - he put the effort in closing passes and forcing them back to the keeper (which our fans ignored because they're a bunch of troglodytes and actively hate the kid for not being Vardy) and did ok to keep the ball and move it with limited service. He fought a losing battle with the way the midfield played, but he fought it nonetheless 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsntf Posted 8 December 2018 Share Posted 8 December 2018 If Vardy doesn't make a start before January,or beyond.. Do We now show patience with Nacho,hoping that he/we suddenly find that he can crack it.!! That he and the team somehow find a way,to make a top striker... Until:- 1) middle of January..> Transfer Window< 2) Hold on to End of the Season. 3) forget him now, 4) let him ride the Bench.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
