baldeagle Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Every time the ball was played up to him he lost it far too weak. 1
maynefox Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Dead wood who needs throwing out in the summer. Then again, he doesn't pick the team!
southfox66 Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Plays too deep, loses the ball too easily, the fact he keeping starting says we desperately need another striker 1
TWUKO Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Should play him as a defensive midfielder, he's great at breaking up attacks....our attacks!

splinterdream Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Would love to know who pointed him out as a £30m player, was it really BR? I'd have thought he's got better judgement
Dusty Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 5/6 players worse than him today. Doesn’t deserve the abuse at all.
UHDrive Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 This player has had me frustrated so many times. Hes god damn awful. He doesn't pick the obvious passes in the final third, dives like an idiot to the extent that it looks recently like the PL refs have been briefed about him, and thinks its sensible to prefer to try to pass around the opposition 1m away rather 2 or 3. Utterly useless.
kingfox Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Crap today, but he isn’t a striker. Games like today proved more than ever how massive Vardy is for us, plus the fact that we need to get in a proper back up number 9. Perez and Nacho are not the answer.

winteriscoming Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Unfortunately he offers nothing in any position you play him. 2 goals in 20 odd games this season isn’t good enough. He’s too weak, lacks pace and can’t hold the ball up. 1
Guest Chocolate Teapot Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 I've defended him. But constantly ignoring passes, falling over trying to win fouls and trying to nutmeg the opposition. I'm done with him. Shite. Waste of money.
Jaspa Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Honking. Came to life abit after we conceded the second, but before and after that completely useless. Lose the ball within 3 seconds of it getting to him, bouncing off his shin into the air. Non existent. Have to admit Leeds did a good job on him, aggressive press which he can't deal with but you want a reaction if it's not going his way and he just sunk back into his shell. Should've took him of, not sure why he started because it was similar against Everton. If he can't add much on the wing, can't find a place in behind the striker and can't step into the front line role when needed I don't really see the point in him being here. Expensive backup/utility who doesn't add much, shrinks under pressure.

We don't need 3 Vardy's - just 1 Vardy and 1 competent back up who carries an attacking threat.
Blanchflower78 Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Poor, not alone but poor. Mates of other teams messaging to say how have we no backup option given our position last 2 seasons. I have no idea.
funkyrobot Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 (edited) Perez is too slow and too lightweight to lead the line. He’s got some neat and tidy touches, works hard but that’s not enough. For me he’s back up to Maddison or a 2nd striker in a two up front (a system we don’t play.) Edited 31 January 2021 by funkyrobot 1
lgfualol Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Rodgers must think Nacho is total dogshit. Poor passing, zero strength and falls over after about 3 touches of the ball. Needs to ride the bench again.
smudger63 Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 I could slag Perez off, along with a number of others today, but then i will probably say something i will regret after ive calmed down, so instead sums it up!!!!
peach0000 Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Just now, GorlestonFox said: Which clubs would they start for? Well Perez started for newcastle for a start. But if you want a list: Sheffield United, West Brom, Fulham, Brighton,Leeds, Palace, Burnley and that’s just off the top of my head
lee7 Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 Awful. Absolutely awful. For some reason i have never really taken to Perez since he has been at the club. He is so inconsistent. He offers so little to the team other than running around a lot i don't really see what else he brings to the table? Really fortunate that we got two injuries so he managed to see out the 90 minutes. 1
l444ry Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 (edited) Square peg in a round hole. Just not up to playing the lone striker or wide when required and way down the pecking order as a No 10. Lack of pace a big problem and looks like we might have another White Elephant in our midst. Edited 31 January 2021 by l444ry
Crazy Kop Corner Posted 31 January 2021 Posted 31 January 2021 He just doesn’t fit in with how we play. Literally the antidote to our attacking play. I’d sell him on 3

Look at spurs, they struggle to get back up for Kane. Perez and Iheanacho are the best we can realistically expect to play a back up role.
