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. I knew you and I would find common ground if we just tried hard enough It was a flippant post, as most of mine are. I was actually surprised you bothered to answer it. For the record, I neither think Chilwell is the incarnate of Paolo Maldini nor Wayne Quinn. Something we agree on at last it seems.

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. As Matt Elliott said he does well in the middle of the pitch but lacks a lot of quality at both ends
Mike Oxlong Posted 22 August 2018 Posted 22 August 2018 Garth Crooks is clueless when he did them for the BBC. He just puts in anyone that scores. Would have loved a game week of nil -nils just to see him have a melt down

His end product and defensive positioning can both be very sloppy but his running with the ball and his link up around midway can be explosive. He's fantastically direct and with his pace it startles defenders.
FLAN Posted 22 August 2018 Posted 22 August 2018 Problem is after being startled once or twice hey realise he’s severely lacking and can just push him into corners

Clever Fox Posted 27 August 2018 Posted 27 August 2018 At least we've had at least one player in Team of the Week since start of the season.
HighPeakFox Posted 28 August 2018 Posted 28 August 2018 Did Garth manage to mention Vardy's absence due to the sending off, and moralise about it, instead of talking about Harry?
davieG Posted 24 September 2018 Posted 24 September 2018 James Maddison: Leicester look like a team again after disappointing results against Liverpool and Bournemouth. Do Leicester fans have any idea what team their manager is going to play from one week to the next, because I don't have a clue. I wonder if Claude Puel tinkers with the team just to keep it interesting. One player who is a fixture in the team at the moment is James Maddison. I'm sure he would benefit from a settled side like the rest of us. As for Huddersfield, in the words of Dad's Army's Private Frazer - "we're doomed". Did you know? Maddison has either scored or assisted in four of his past five Premier League starts for Leicester City (three goals, one assist). https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45620994

And Huddersfield?? Plonker

And Huddersfield?? Plonker Kind of fair though. I thought we were doing wing backs now I'm fairly confused but as long as we're getting the results and playing well. And he probably watched MOTD highlights, saw the free kick, add him into his team selection then went to the post office with his invoice...
Finnegan Posted 24 September 2018 Posted 24 September 2018 Ironically thought the performance against Liverpool was much better than Huddersfield. Just lacked Vardy.

The freekick and him being a young English talent is upping the hype a bit. Even the commentators during the game were gushing when he mostly played sideways passes. Mendy on the other hand hardly got a mention despite being excellent in his distribution and decision-making. He was the standout player for us.

I keep reading quotes like this, we were appalling against Bournemouth and apart from Morgan he made two changes, one of those being the right back who was poor and Gray who is rarely anything else. Whats the problem?

Honourable mentions for Chilwell, Maddison and Vardy too.
Foxxed Posted 24 September 2018 Posted 24 September 2018 Chillwell and Vardy in Whoscored team of the week.
davieG Posted 5 November 2018 Posted 5 November 2018 Garth Crooks Goalkeeper: Kasper Schmeichel (Leicester) This was a monumental test of mental strength for Kasper Schmeichel and his team-mates. “I noticed in the line-up during the minute's silence before the game that Schmeichel was still emotional from the awful events that took place at Leicester City Football Club last Saturday. “Nevertheless, it didn't stop the Dane from producing a first-class performance against Cardiff and a clean sheet.” Centre-back: Wes Morgan (Leicester) “If ever a captain needed to keep his troops calm in an emotionally charged atmosphere then this was it. “Wes Morgan was superb in defence against Cardiff and kept his team-mates focused on the job at hand.”
StanSP Posted 5 November 2018 Posted 5 November 2018 Chilwell unlucky not to get any mention despite BBC making him man of the match as well.
