Tom12345 Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 Personally I think Chiwell would benefit with a spell on the sidelines to give him food for thoughts about areas he can improve on: early cross, forward (instead of backward) passing, positioning and working better with the left winger in front of him. He should not be seriously concerned if Fuchs start because from all accounts he respects Fuchs and Fuchs is in the twilight of his career. Anyway, trust Rogers know what he is doing and will make the right moves.
Vardinio'sCat Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 I suppose that if BR had any worries about Fuchs deputising they have been put to bed, which gives BR the opportunity to chose when Chillers returns. It will be sad to lose the sweet deliveries, but when Chilwell is fully ready he will play. We did look a bit lacking in pace against Sheff U at times, and our flying wing backs help with that.
Dan Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 I forgot how good Fuchs' left foot actually is. He can pass the ball as well as a lot of midfielders. It's a shame he's getting on. I've really liked him this past couple of games and would go as far as saying I'd actually keep him in for the time being. Chilwell's got the engine over him but in terms of on the ball quality Fuchs is still king.

If we were going to sell Chilwell we'd be expecting about £70m I would've thought. Fuchs came on a free and that was superb business for us, but how much would a young or peak Fuchs be worth today? I think, less than half of Chilwell's fee. I think not,a young Fuch`s would be better in my book.
bfox Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 Indeed, fuchs has such good technique and accuracy if chilly could acquire some of that aswell as be more positive well then.. again.. he wouldnt be at Leicester!
bfox Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 When he finally does hang it up, Fuchs is definitely the one I’m going to miss most from the title team. An amazing player and a true gent!

That's quite young to retire when you're not injured.

Well he would because he came through the ranks. He is destined for bigger things though. We won't keep him forever.

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 Thought he was done here after the Newport game but has done really well while Ben's been out. Ben comes straight back in when he's fit though let's be realistic.

That said, it's good that he's bided his time here and seized this opportunity due to Chilwell's misfortune. Also perhaps a blessing that Brendan gave him a year's contract extension....and he's certainly repaid the faith shown in him so far!
HighPeakFox Posted 27 August 2019 Posted 27 August 2019 He certainly didn't sign a one-year contract when he joined...

After this and the rock paper scissors with Shinji one thing is for sure i am never going to compete against him on a dare. Guys a legend. no wonder they were so keen to get him to sign for another year he, has always been the joker in the pack and must be great for moral on the training ground and those boring long distance away trips etc. My other half met him once when he was promoting his fashion stuff in town and said he was a perfect gent, posing for selfies and had a laugh and joke with everyone. Will be gutted when he leaves, Epitomises everything that is good about the club.
The whole world smiles Posted 23 October 2019 Posted 23 October 2019 On the one hand I'm going to be gutted when Fuchs retires what an impact he's had from the minute he walked through the door. On the other hand you just know with his personality and understanding of the game and unique take on things he is going to have a great career in the media and be completely biassed towards Leicester City he will be a great tonic to the likes of Danny Murphy, Chris Sutton and Danny Mills who I think are genuinely biassed against us for different reasons. On the same note I think Danny Simpson will also have a good career In punditry and like Fuchs is Leicester through and through. Be great to have some proper Leicester voices in the national media.

Savage and Smith suddenly started wearing their ex leicester credentials on their sleeve a bit more when we were going for the leauge but it was pretty transparent.
