Captain... Posted 23 July 2019 Posted 23 July 2019 12 minutes ago, StriderHiryu said: Non joke reply - it was absolute domination. Noticeable observations were: - High Pressing game turned up to 90% for this one. Every time we lost the ball, we had it back again 10 seconds later. The last goal came from a Hamza special. - More noticeable split between the 6 (Mendy / Silva), the 8 (Tielemans / Hamza) and the 10 (King / Maddison) in terms of pitch position and role. Last season for example Tielemans and Maddison switched roles, but this time round they stuck to their roles more often. - It turns out that Youri Tielemans is a very good player. Who'd have thought it!? - Their goalkeeper has a great game, their goal led a charmed life at times. - Barnes was in classic last season mode. Could have scored 5, actually scored zero, but did make a great assist for Nacho. - Nacho pressed very well and scored a deserved goal, almost had an other. Nacho pressing well is a big thing, he obviously has talent but I feel like something hasn't been right, either attitude or confidence or not understanding what Puel or Shakespeare were asking him to do. If Rodgers can get through to him then we might have a player on our hands. That's the difference between Nacho and Ghezzal you always felt like Nacho had lots more to give but was mentally struggling. Ghezzal just doesn't have the gears to go through.

He's also clearly a confidence player. After scoring he improved massively, and started to show his skill. Still not convinced by him but I support every Leicester player. And as you say his hard work makes him a lot more endearing. Shinji Okazaki had a poor goal scoring record but is a legend for a reason. He worked his arse off unselfishly for the team, and it helped reach dream land. Every player no matter how good or bad you are should aim to put in a shift like that!

Ric Flair Posted 23 July 2019 Posted 23 July 2019 Any of you shit balls who have forgotten about Hamza and Barnes prior to tonight want to hold their hands up? This squad is naughty ain't it?!

By way of building his confidence, maybe we should stop calling him "nacho man."

It's not a disrespectful thing just a nickname. It's interesting that it was posted by an American and repped by another. Is there some connotation with the term over there that we're not aware of?
