ealingfox Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 I'm also not really sure on what basis people are saying he looked good or shit, there wasn't nearly enough to go on either way.

Gazza M Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 1 hour ago, Ric Flair said: This would indicate we are still going to play Maddison on the left regardless of the opposition and no Barnes or Albrighton? Maddison and Youri need to be back central together pulling the strings. It seems that way to me. Cant complain with our 2nd half yesterday though. Created plenty of chances.

Thought every touch he did have showed the right intent and good execution. Strong in the tackle, good awareness, good passing. Very small sample size but he did what he could and impressed me.
KFS Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Could be our much needed balance in midfield. Kasper Chilwell Cags Evans Ricardo N’Didi (CDM) Praet (Box to box) Tielemans (AM) Maddison (inside forward) Vardy Perez (inside forward) Ward, Albrighton, Barnes, Iheanacho, Justin, Morgan, Choudhury

I agree completely. he's only just arrived, he needs time to adjust and get used to his teammates. At the moment he looks like an alternative/backup to Tielemans but I'm pretty sure we bought him with the anticipation of losing Maddison to a "big club" next season. I hope he'll work fine with one or the other but I can't yet see how we play all three in a starting lineup. Way to early to judge yet though and so probably a pointless post. It just seemed people were a little too high on the guy which on FT always ends up in people hating on him a few weeks later. I think this season Praet is a project (at least until January).

Won the ball that created Maddison's shocking miss and Vardy's miss, not bad for about 20 mins work. He also robbed Kante of the ball which just doesn't usually happen. It was a solid cameo, I certainly didn't expect him to be as impressive from the off.

Bluetintedspecs Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Showed some good glimpses in a very brief cameo, introduction to the EPL, considering away at Chelsea it was encouraging.

Deeg67 Posted 20 August 2019 Posted 20 August 2019 Against Sheffield width may not be as much of a problem - if Chilwell is back. You would expect he and Ricardo to spend much of the game buzzing around the Sheffield penalty area, effectively playing as wingers.

If they play with wing backs then our full backs consistently getting well forward could make for an interesting tactical situation .....

I'd rather Fuchs given the performance of Chilwell vs Wolves and Fuchs vs Chelsea from an attacking perspective. If we could somehow merge the two players we'd have a beast of a left back. I wonder if or when Chilwell will be able to cross and pass in the final third? Feels more hope than faith right now but everything else in his game seems to be spot on.

I'm hopeful chilly might've benefited from seeing Fuchs be so direct and purposeful going forward in that second half. I get the feeling sometimes Chilly is overthinking his options when he attacks

For a player dubbed an attacking full back I think he's one of the worst in the league at it.

For a player dubbed an attacking full back I think he's one of the worst in the league at it. Agree. I think he'd benefit if he was just advised to run his 60 yards and, for example, hit a low ball into 6 yard box (of whatever)...Fuchs does like to ping strong crosses in. He's doesn't over complicate. I think Chilly does...torn between a cross, continuing his run into the box, cutting inside or - usually and worst of all - stopping and playing a simple nothing ball inside to Barnes or Maddison

I think it's nothing more than a vibe, a hunch. He came on and made a debut in the toughest of scenarios, the game at full pelt and a tiny mistake either way was going to decide the game. And he did OK....which is about the max you could expect in such a in-at-the-deep-end 17 mins I remember getting the same strength of vibe when Silva dandily crept onto the pitch v Huddersfield - only in that case the vibe was one of absolute horror. He looked small, weak, a little boy lost and out of his depth. Proof that vibes alone can be accurate
