Ndidi is worth his weight in gold imo.

He isn’t the problem. He needs a playmaker around him.

I’m guessing on possibly a midfield three before long and I’d like to see Wilf, Hamza and Tielemans

Ive said it before... Mendy offers very little imo.

Agreed

[TaggertvsWise]

Just for fun, and because everyone loves a formation, next season I would use our midfield thusly in a 5-3-2 and just let N’didi do what he does best:

 

                          Kasper

          Soyunco  Maguire  Evans

Pereira                                     Chilwell

                           N’didi

             Maddison     Tielemans 

                          Barnes

                           Vardy

That slip at the end was as N'Didi as it gets, pure comedy.

 

I actually think Puel was brave dropping him.

[Haywood_6]

Wilf is far better than Mendy and he showed it today.

And wilf proved him wrong - best I’ve seen him on the ball for ages ....

[Kopfkino]

Loads better when he plays alongside someone else that can actually play football

. Watch the replay and he'd have needed to be about 10ft tall to reach it anyway. Had an excellent game.

Great game, shows what a difference it makes not having Mendy next to him who constantly gives him the ball when he's under pressure. Played some great long balls.

He dominated the midfield. Puel was foolish to drop him

[MrsJohnMurphy]

One of our best players today

[smitha]

That 35 minute dropping might have done him  the world of good, looked good today but also I think Tielemans helped.

[Fox92]

Better today. Please God I hope I never see the Ndidi / Mendy partnership again.

[Royston.]

Our best player today i thought.

[lgfualol]

Some of his turns with the ball were lovely. Played really well. Like the Ndidi of old.

[Analysethis]

He was outstanding today and was the same last time out. He had a blip of form but now he is back to his best which is great to see. He was a monster today. Keep it up Wilf!!!

I do worry Mendy will be straight back in ASAP.

And me. We were a better side today without him. 

[Dames]

Looks a lot better with a better more confident player alongside him. Its like Tielemans confidence on the ball rubbed off on NDidi. 

 

A Tielemans NDidi partnership on this showing has massive massive potential and if Claude even thinks about dropping either for Mendy he deserves to be shot out of a catapult back to France.

[ParkerPen]

all about having a creative partner playing with him - well done today wilf

[Beechey]

6 tackles today, back to his best. Clearly thrives when his game is simpler.

[Clever Fox]

I thought Wilf and Chilwell were our best players today.

Tielemans looks a very good player and playing with Wild will improve him no end.

Dropping him was more to do with giving him a rest than anything g to do with form etc.

[Col city fan]

No surprise whatsoever that Wilf played well today. See my post above.

He was playing alongside a quality CM and didn’t have to do all the playmaking.

If Puel now goes and brings Mendy straight back in, he’s even more daft than he looks.

Mendy is really really average

Mendy was supposed to be starting... Imo he should be 4th choice now... Behind Tielemans, Wilf and Hamza 

[lanefox]

Wilf looked good yesterday , probably his best game of the season

Actually, google says that Ndidi is 80 kg, and gold is roughly worth 41000 USD per kilo. That makes his weight in gold 3280000 USD - I'd say he's worth significantly more than his weight in gold!
