Caglar Soyuncu emerges as new cult hero at Leicester City

[TheSomersetFox]

I love him so much. What a job he's done replacing Maguire ffs. Absolute don of a centre half and great work by the club getting him in a year early

Evans is just brilliant. How he spent so long knocking around in mid table sides  is a mystery to me.

Weren’t city and Arsenal after him the summer before  we signed him offering £30m+ and he did spend abit of time at United before they became a mid table team  to be fair to him he’s won the champions league and the premier league 3 times

[kyleolly]

If that was sarcasm and it went over my head I apologise for being thick

[David Hankey]

Another player who has excelled under Brendan!!

[Livid]

I think we were all a little unsure about him but he’s had everyone behind him from the moment he stepped in and he hasn’t let us down. 

 

Looks a quality buy!

Oh yeah I’m aware he was a united for years and won things he’s just spent a lot of time playing below himself.

Maybe comfortable as a big fish in a small pond?

Were would you rather be at Man Utd scrutinised and slagged off every game or at West Brom or Leicester and seen as their top defender and loved?

[Hammo]

He deserved his chance to be Maguire's replacement....and talk about grabbing it with both hands. He gets better with every game and is also wonderful to watch. Those audacious feints and turns not only show how confident he is getting - helped no doubt by the positive crowd reaction to him - but just how talented a footballer he is.

 

Can't wait to see the direct match-up with Maguire at Old Trafford...

Evans is this generations Huth - understated but critical to ensuring the defence performs it's job. Given the age/experience of those around him he performs a magnificent role

Not a great first post...

Alright Mr 1600 posts calm down mate just having laugh

[Gazza M]

Please get rid of this God awful chant about Soyuncu and his manhood. Totally high school playground. No need to mention Harry Maguire either, he has been and gone. Forget him.

Vardy v Wolves?

More the effort than the 'tackle' there though weren't it. 

[dan_fox]

Favourite moment towards the end of the game, when Evans went down injured, he made a tackle and about four Leicester players came over to high 5 him - superb today.

Brilliant today. I just want to run my fingers through his thick Barnet.

[Dr The Singh]

Didn't track his man for the goal, other then that, he was good

[HighPeakFox]

Funnily enough, MOTD highlights suggested a rather dubious moment just prior to Chilwell's long pass to Vardy - whether or not it was a misplaced pass or the recipient was dozing, I couldn't tell.

I'm sat in that corner and my initial impression in real time was that Wilf was on his heels

Yeah it was a great piece of recovery by Soyuncu and a simple short pass to Wilf, but Ndidi was too slow to get to the ball. Given that "we build from the back, we counter attack..." I think Ndidi needs to react faster to a pass like that personally.

Wasn't perfect today but he is doing a really good job for us, and will only improve going forward. It's rare to see a CB with quite that much confidence on the ball.

 

His mobility and all round game are easily outweighing any negatives at the mo. You can see that Evans is doing a lot of the talking, and I think you can see from our play that Cags is listening hard, hats off to him.
