Caglar Soyuncu emerges as new cult hero at Leicester City

[Fox92]

Get rid.

"Hero" ffs. One good season and bloke thinks he's Nesta. 

[Webbo]

How many different partners has he had this season?How many times has he had to cover for a non defender shoe horned into the defend because there was nobody else? I think the criticism is very harsh.

even when he was with Evans he was very poor

[lee7]

Embarassing! He has been a bombscare all along just lives off the one decent season he has had with us.

Looks like he wants out, get rid.

 

He's been poor all season, absolutely dog shit. 

 

He gives the ball away far too often, then does stupid rash fouls. Fofana and Evans are by far our strongest defenders 

[Guest Manini]

He is dreadful 

[Stuntman_Mike]

Squad player 

[Buzzell]

He was immense when he was partnered with Evans but since he’s been out the picture Soy has nosedived. His defensive awareness is crap and needlessly gives the ball away. He needs to be dropped but Vestergaard isn’t any better.

That’s been the problem all season

Vestergaard - let’s accept it, rubbish buy

Soyuncu… possibly the most regressed player I’ve ever seen in a City shirt. Has literally gone from hero to zero

Amartey… poor squad player

Evans… well past his best.. too injury prone

Fofana.. quality CB but suffered an injury that was effectively GBH 

There is no way that Rodgers would be playing Amartey most weeks if he didn’t have to. And he can’t drop Soyuncu (who for…Vestergaard!)

Fofana’s injury ruined the season actually before it started. Soyuncu can’t play with Amartey cos the former needs confidence and composure alongside him 

And Amartey can’t play with Vestie because we’d concede even more goals!

The season will likely fade out into nothingness because of this. 
Any successful side is built on a solid defence (Brian Clough). We even had Martin Keown slating our defence today! And not just for today btw.

Hobson’s choice I’m afraid

Fair to say that we need major recruitment   in the summer at centre back, and I’m talking 2 to 3 new players.

 

Can see Soy moving on with Amartey possibly leaving on a free. Vestergaard needs shifting and Evans is, like you said, way past his best, injury prone and at the latter stages of his career, yet he’s the best centre back we have.

[Claridge]

Absolute rubbish, no way should he be playing

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.

I agree whats happened to him used to be power house 

[sdb]

Where on earth is he expecting to go? 

[john ridley]

Been crap since the summer with Turkey 

[Tommy Fresh]

Said it in the match thread but there was one point where someone was running at him and I thought he was going to do that weird tackle Wayne Brown attempted on Earnshaw, where he went with his left leg across his body rather than his right. Also had flashbacks that Neilson would appear. Fairplay to Pearson getting that side in to the playoffs😂

He’d gone off before that. Was poor second half of last season too 

[Aus Fox]

It’s becoming a regular trait of Soyuncu, where when things aren’t going our way, he becomes frustrated and loses his head and ultimately costs the team.

Today, without Kasper, Evans and Vardy, Soyuncu should have been one of the players we were looking for to be a leader on the pitch. 
He continually fails to step up as the senior pro in the back line. 
For me his time here is up, he still has a reasonably good reputation in the game, cash in at the end of the season and we need to bring in that Evans, Elliot, Walsh type leader at the back.

[Vacamion]

 

Just seen a tweet which might explain his drop-off in form:

 

 

 

 

[Guest Lako42]

**** me, his positioning and decision making is utterly abysmal. 

 

Watch motd if you want to see how not to defend as a CB. 

 

 

Embarrassing 

[Silverfox14]

Brutal

[AyewJoking]

What the hell happened to the cool as a cucumber Cags cruyff turning attackers and making defending look so easy.

 

I know we are struggling for defenders but he is a liability.

[Hales]

He won't sign the contract but I'm not sure where he thinks he will go.  There are not going to be the clubs he wants queuing up with his form? 

[foxfanazer]

Not sure what's happened but he's just terrible isn't he? Get rid

[lcfc_forever]

He loses his head far too often when the going gets tough. He's been a major part of most of our recent capitulations. Needs to be benched, only looked half-decent when Ndidi or Evans have played alongside him this season.

He has showed he can reach a high level, so there'll be decent clubs willing to take him, just depends whether anyone will pony up some kind of fee with his contract running down.

 

Who knows why his form has nosedived so badly, but I think his time is over here
