urban.spaceman Posted 21 August 2018 Posted 21 August 2018 Two new signings and an academy product performing very well. Great stuff

urban.spaceman Posted 22 August 2018 Posted 22 August 2018 Leicester trio star among Europe’s top youngsters of the week by Martin Laurence at Tuesday, Aug 21 2018 17:08 0 With just the Bundesliga to recommence this coming weekend, we look back at the top performing youngsters of the previous gameweek across the remainder of Europe’s top five leagues, as both La Liga and Serie A got back underway. It was, however, a Premier League star that led the way of players aged 21 and under in the WhoScored.com ratings, with Gabriel Jesus opening his account for the season in a thumping win over Huddersfield. The Brazilian scored Manchester City’s second goal in a 6-1 victory, hitting the target with five of six attempts and creating a further five chances for teammates for a rating of 9.47. Elsewhere compatriot Richarlison continued his fine start to life with Everton with a third goal in just his second appearance for the club to earn a rating of 8.11, while there were three further Premier League representatives, all from the same team. Leicester’s Wilfred Ndidi (7.78), James Maddison (8.28) - who opened his account for his new club - and man of the match Ben Chilwell (9.02) all impressed in a 2-0 win over newly promoted Wolves and brought to focus the potential within the Foxes squad. Away from England’s top-flight there was a debut to remember for Athletic Club’s Peru Nolaskoian, with the centre-back the latest in a long line of impressive young centre-backs to emerge through the ranks in the Basque country. The 19-year-old opened the scoring with a header from a corner against Leganes with a goal that would prove to be decisive as Eduardo Berizzo’s men ran out 2-1 winners. With a 91 per cent pass success rate and six aerial duels won the teenager promises to be one to watch this season. There was another strong league bow from a centre-back in Serie A too, with Jacob Rasmussen putting a disappointing competitive debut in the Copa Italia behind him to ensure promoted Empoli got off to a winning start. The 21-year-old, signed in the summer from Copenhagen, won seven aerial duels and completed 11 clearances to help keep a clean sheet against Cagliari. Elsewhere in Italy, all eyes were on Cristiano Ronaldo’s debut in Serie A and while the Portuguese made a decent start to his Juventus career, earning a place in the team of the week, he was beaten in the ratings by Chievo winger Fabio Depaoli. The 21-year-old came head-to-head with the former Madrid star for much of the second half and completed a match-high of eight tackles for a rating of 7.70. Some more familiar names completed the top ten this week, with Ismaila Sarr (eighth) proving to be the match winner as Rennes left it late against Angers, while Kylian Mbappe made quite the comeback for PSG. The Ligue 1 champions were 1-0 down at the break in Guingamp before Thomas Tuchel introduced the teenager, who duly scored twice to ensure the visitors picked up all three points, earning a rating of 8.49 despite playing only 45 minutes.

And this is why our club has a feeling of excitement around it at the moment…. Fan-bleedin’-tastic

Is Chilwell going to be the latest ridiculously polarising topic on ft this year? HE'S SHIT - **** THE FANBOYS HE'S GOD - **** THE HATERS Everyone normal: he carries the ball well and has a lot of promise, if he can work on his consistency and his defensive positioning he could be a real asset.

Personally think he's had two very good games so far this season. Left back is a bit of a weak position in the national side. If he keeps this up all season then he'll be knocking on Southgate's door for sure.

We end up with these weird figures like Pearson, King, et all where a select group take any time criticism - even constructive - and cry about "haters. Then the opposite group that shut down literally any praise as "oh look here come the fanboys" etc. You can just tell now that's going to be Chilwell all season. Every good game it'll be "where are the naysayers now!!!" and when he inevitably passes it straight to Salah for a tap in it'll be "where are the fan boys now hmm hmm!?!?!" from smug twats.

I thought you were a foxestalk stalwart? Most, if not all players are polarising on here. I apologise my short post caused you so much pain. If you want to post in the 'how is your day' thread, I can switch to that and try to soothe you. Alternatively, you could place an entry in the 'What grinds my gears' thread. I'm sure there will be another member only to delighted to caress you back to full health.
lgfualol Posted 22 August 2018 Posted 22 August 2018 Mad to think Gabriel Jesus is 21. Mendy also made the French (c*nt remember which site) team of the week. Chilwell had a stellar game looking at his stats. I am glad the days of our fullbacks never passing the half way line are over.

Foxestalk can get polarised by which biscuit is the best or what you put on your chips (don't mention pea wet and you'll be fine) this is true. But every year there's an especially obsessive subject for the idiots on here to get especially tribal about. We've had Wellens, Gallagher, Nugent, Pearson, you name it. For some reason, half the forum will completely abandon all reason and refuse to acknowledge that said person can be something other than entirely awful or entirely divine. I can well see that being Chilwell this year. I appreciate your concern but I'm fine, by the way, it doesn't upset me it just wildly bores me to tears and puts me off the LCFC section. Let's be fair, it's ironically the worst section of FT by a mile.
