UniFox21 Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 (edited) What I love is how the media and sky are raving and hyping over the likes of AWB, that lets Ricardo go unnoticed on a lot of occasions. edit: my bad thought this was in the main forum, don't panic people #2: Cheers for moving this Edited 22 August 2019 by UniFox21
Meat and 2 veg Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 Thought he’d signed a new contract. Disappointed...
Fox92 Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 Easily in the top three right full backs in the league. 2
Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 22 August 2019 Popular Post Posted 22 August 2019 He's currently our best player. Vardy is my favourite ever LCFC player, but Riccy is just consistently good every game. He's our best attacking player despite being a right back! Feel bad for Danny Simpson, but Ricardo is just levels and levels above him in terms of what a full back can do. The scary thing is Ricardo still has room to improve! He does sometimes make defensive mistakes or doesn't quite deliver on the final ball, but well if every signing was as good as Ricardo, I'd be a very happy man. Great attitude as well! 6
Nicolo Barella Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 (edited) He's leaving us this summer I'm not sure how I'll ever be able to watch a right back play for us again Edit: not this summer, next summer Edited 22 August 2019 by Nicolo Barella 1

He's not a particularly attacking player by any stretch of the imagination. Pereira on the other hand has managed to get himself to second on that list despite at times playing more like a winger, and his attacking output over the season will far outstrip anything that AWB produces. That's seriously impressive. Pereira for me is in the top 2 RBs (possibly FBs in general) in the league. TAA the other. 2

His offensive ability and creativity often gets missed, and its one of the major points of his game. The way he switches feet and glides past people is incredible. But I agree, AWB is more defensive, probably with the ability to push forward somewhere in him.

Agree completely. I think he is the best player we have and I honestly would not swap him for any other player in the league in his position. Maybe not quite Kante levels but pretty close to being world class in my opinion. X 1
Guest ttfn Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 There’s a decent case for him being our best right back, best right winger and best left winger. He’s also played a season or two at left back.

Ricky P with Fuchs of 3 or 4 seasons ago would be amazing!

Trent Alexander-Arnold, yes maybe he is better. Cancelo? Yep could be better. Who is left after that? Kimmich? Pavard? I like that no one outside Leicester rates Ricardo, because it's good for us! But for me, is a top class player that could literally play for anybody. I agree he is not on Kante's level who was not only the best box-to-box midfielder in Europe when we had him, but one of the best in the histroy of the league - on the same level as Keane and Vieria. But Riccy P is absolute top quality, you see it every single game. 1

AjcW Posted 22 August 2019 Posted 22 August 2019 Honestly he’s just phenomenal. A superb signing, if we don’t get Europe this year then we’ll be shopping for another right back in the summer. When you think about some of the trash PSG and Barca have had and bought at right back recently, you can predict exactly where he’ll be heading. i hope it’s that anyway..... spurs are crying out for a good right back 2

For me he is still the best player in the world at what he does. Hopefully he gets a move to a true giant before he retires, he deserves it. X 2

X He's being used as a box to box and involved a lot more in attacking play. Admittedly he's not bad at all at it, but he isn't being used as the ball winning, attack stopping monster he was for us. I still stand with that's his best role.

I agree, I said nothing about his position? I just think even if they played him in his best position he is still too good for them. He should be at Barcelona, Madrid, Man City, etc. He honestly is too good for anyone else (apart from us). X
