Popular Post Wolfox Posted 9 January 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 9 January 2020 (edited) In the light of the two other city players getting a shoeing on other threads…. Thought I’d give Mr Pérez a bump… looked really lively yesterday and was good as a deep lying second striker….

Expect him to have a good second half of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stadt Posted 12 January 2020 Share Posted 12 January 2020 So frustrating how often he fails to keep possession in relatively simple scenarios, he’ll receive the ball and instead of moving away from pressure he’ll try and back into a player and lose out. He’s agile and can control the ball well enough to turn out but rarely does, coaching staff should be correcting it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 12 January 2020 Share Posted 12 January 2020 He’s not a winger, he is more comfortable and more productive playing centrally. On the wing, he’s nothing short of a snowflake, no pace and dissolves when a defender gets close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_lcfc_85 Posted 12 January 2020 Share Posted 12 January 2020 Unfortunately our 4 so calles wingers (Perez, barnes, gray, albrighton) have 7 goals between them all season. This simply isnt good enough for a team challenging top 4. We've never replaced or even got close to replacing mahrez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosbehFox Posted 12 January 2020 Share Posted 12 January 2020 To an extent I can take the lack of goals if Perez and Barnes actually kept the ball rather than acting like some basketball backboard. Perez and Barnes both played thirty yards backward passes what saw Southampton in on goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's where he played for most of his Newcastle career and scored a lot of goals. How many times? I've posted this before, but this is his heat map for last season 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 19 January 2020 Share Posted 19 January 2020 Drove me potty today. I think he loses possession so much. Lucky to in ahead of Nacho & Gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Loyal Posted 19 January 2020 Share Posted 19 January 2020 I can't believe he messed up the through ball to Vardy when we were breaking on the counter, that was a golden opportunity for us today. On the whole he was pretty poor, it never feels like both our wingers have good games, it's either one or neither of them play well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volpeazzurro Posted 20 January 2020 Share Posted 20 January 2020 Was quite good when played through the middle but would still have him well behind Maddison and Iheanacho for a place behind Vardy. Totally bloody useless out wide. A big mistake signing imo, get rid and put the money towards a winger though doubt we'd get half what we paid for him now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been a goal, two on one even Pope would struggle to counter that. I want to like Perez but he is a drag on the team right now. He needs replacing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a big holding man up front who could lay the ball back off to the wide men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecdysiast Posted 21 January 2020 Share Posted 21 January 2020 Rob Tanners recent article on Ayoze on The Athletic..... “I was always a great admirer of Ayoze Perez and I was very sorry to see him leave, but I was very much in the minority.” Newcastle United’s legendary No 9 Malcolm Macdonald had been keeping a close eye on Ayoze Perez during his time at St James’ Park before switching to Leicester City last summer, and he liked what he saw. However, he knows not everyone could see what he did, or shared his view, and it is a similar situation for the Spaniard now at the King Power Stadium. Perez has chipped in with five goals and four assists from his 20 Premier League appearances for his new club, but after Leicester paid £30 million for his services many supporters had hoped for more of an impact from the 26-year-old. https://theathletic.co.uk/1530177/2020/01/20/what-is-ayoze-perez-best-position-leicester/ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's the blame Him, His agent , Rodgers or all of them. Only hope is a partnership with Iheanacho but that means leaving Vardy out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moore_94 Posted 21 January 2020 Share Posted 21 January 2020 Needs just 1 more goal contribution to be our only winger other than Mahrez to get at least 10 goal contributions in a season in the league while we have been back in the Premier League Happy with his contribution this season if he is able to reach 15, which I think he will 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriderHiryu Posted 22 January 2020 Share Posted 22 January 2020 Best performance so far in a Leicester shirt. He got a hat trick against Southampton, but his all round play today was brilliant. Hopefully we see more performances like this one, though i will say that he was given the full 90 minutes seemed to help him as usually he is pulled off after 60. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chester Dontlie Posted 22 January 2020 Share Posted 22 January 2020 I've been disappointed with him since he's joined, and occasionally called him one of our two weakest links, but today he's played out of his skin and was absolutely brilliant against Wham. Great all around performance, a well taken peno in a very difficult moment plus a beauty of a goal to kill the game. Previously I wasn't impressed with him at all (bar the one off special 'slaughter of the Saints' performance) Wish he was pulling stuff like this more often !! Take a bow Ayoze 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
