Caglar Soyuncu emerges as new cult hero at Leicester City

[jeffschlupp]

I thought he was the best he'd been for a long time today. Steady

[Christoph]

His passing today was Sunday league level. Absolute shell of the player we all loved when he first replaced maguire.

All he needs to do is twat the ball out and their goal doesn't happen. Instead he plays it to Thomas who has 3 on him. 

Or some could have stopped the cross or won the header.

 

Its a team game, lot of opportunities to prevent the goal. 

[CosbehFox]

The way he kept putting Thomas under severe pressure was totally and utterly maddening 

[Ian Nacho]

Defensively wasn’t as bad as he has been recently but his distribution was poor.

that was as much on Youri and KDH not taking responsibility in midfield on the ball, Youri especially was in full Drinkwater/Wellens mode of fire the ball right back at the player that just passed to you for no reason

You're right, we should have stopped the cross and then challenged for the header more. So fingerss to be pointed across the backline 

 

Pointing out he could have removed all of that by hoofing the ball up instead of to Thomas who was under press.

I've been his fan since the early days and it saddens me to say he's been a liability for months (I had said it once or twice previously in this thread so nothing really new here).

I think those saying his mentality is all wrong are bang on the money. From someone who was cooler than a fridge into a ticking bomb. We've seen it too often, how hard he tries to take the responsiblity, then makes the mistake, then inevitably implodes. 

Maybe I'm unrepentant optimist or just bonkers, but I believe there's still a good player there somewhere...  BUT SOMEONE HAS TO SORT THIS LAD'S HEAD OUT, PRONTO.

His case screams for a mental/ personal coach/psychotherapist. Some mental weightlifting there to be done, so he could become the steady, cool headed defender he was in his first season. Mistakes will inevitably happen, football is a game of errors after all, it's the way how you deal with them that makes the difference between a man and a grown up child.

As a matter of fact some of our other players could use some fuchsing mental coaching as well, but that's for a different thread

I reckon he had a decent game...

he s not had a Top season,Nor poor just average...

We lose a goal, We must always find 2-3 scapegoats...

Thats what is pathetic..

Why Not crucify the midfield for consistently letting the oppo get into consistent comfortable dangerous positions..

The bline was Sold out,against Spurs & Today against Brighton..Thomas forded no support, from either Barnes or later,

after Barnes substitution..

Average?he has been absolute rubbish, would be gone if Evans and fofana were fit

I Love Mature debate, and the scapegoat shredding of our own players...

And I would rather have Soyu ,more than Evans, who in these 2 seasons have dropped some clangers...

[don_danbury]

why does he sometimes blast the ball to a player rather than just passing it like a normal person? noticed he did it again today

[escape2victory]

I’ve been one of his biggest critics for 18 months or so, his gormless face always chewing gum annoys me ! However he was ok today, some decent long diagonals in the first half and generally fairly solid. The performance of Soyuncu was the least of our worries today

Yes, noticed this a couple of times. Absolutely no need to do it.

[Frost]

He is done here, absolutely awful footballer.

Lost his mojo massively. Needs to get Austin Powers on the blower, STAT.

[Mickyblueeyes]

Can I just remind everyone that this MFs agent has him down to move to Barcelona, Real Madrid, the Harlem Globetrotters and the Moon. 
 

 

[Tommy G]

We’ll get less than we paid for him now!

[Foxes96]

Get what we can for him. Wouldn’t be playing if the alternative wasn’t Vestergaard 

[RowlattsFox]

I don't want to stick up for him cos he's been shit but there were at least 7 or 8 worse than him today. Those in front of him were diabolical. How many times second half did noone show for a pass? 

[coolhandfox]

The fact he hasn't signed a new contract tells you where his head is at.

 

 

[frany104]

Play the youngsters instead of him. He’s useless.

[Ian S]

Just sell him. Been crap for too long for him to turn it round now, and take Tielemans and N’Didi with him as they have downed tools as well.

[HybridFox]

Managed to produce a worse performance than Vestergaard and that's saying something

[Hales]

Sadly Cags it's a bye from me now 😔 he makes me so nervous everytime he gets the ball. What has happened to him? If this is because he wants a move away he is seriously limiting himself to his future.
