Spudulike 3,690 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January Need to get a clip of him tackling Newcastle players by heading the ball whilst lying on the Turf. Very shark style. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RowlattsFox 2,634 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January I feel bad saying this and it's a bit ridiculous but I do think Albrighton is holding us back yet also being in excellent form at the same time 2 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cardiff_Fox 6,515 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January That was his 28th PL assist for LCFC. Apparently the 3rd highest. Anyone know whose higher than him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(Edit: It's Guppy). https://www.premierleague.com/stats/top/players/goal_assist?se=-1&cl=26 In all seriousness, they’re all ahead of Mahrez? He managed 11 in the title winning season. I’d have guessed he’d have been around the 40 mark? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest 1,758 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January I thought he got better as the game went on. You can never fault his work rate and even if he's having a stinker you know he's reliably going to produce a moment or two of real quality at some point. I don't think he should be starting all that regularly but there is a part of me that loves how he keeps forcing his way back in, as he has under every manager Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot 1,390 Posted 3 January Popular Post Report Share Posted 3 January Sick of every match thread starting by dissing him when he's been in great form yet again and puts in another brilliant display. Honestly sod the haters you don't deserve him. 18 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Izzet and Mahrez actually got a decent chunk of their assists in one season. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cruzFOX 341 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January We have to go easy on ol Marc. He’s clocked a lotta mileage on his clock but he still puts a graft in. We all want him to be the albrighton of 2015/16 where he was pinging laser guided crosses into the box for Vardy but he’s a second or two slower nowadays and it shows. still he gets the odd ones in and it’s great. Just need our attackers to capitalize on them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lennybhoy 42 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January I was watching the game and I came on the forum at halftime to have a look at what people we’re saying .Never again.I know football is about opinions but the rubbish that people come out here with is astounding.I really hope none of the players ever come on here to have a look .Embarrassing 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He was trying, but failing with nearly every final ball/pass to release a runner. You could hear him getting frustrated with himself too, screaming when it went wrong. But I guess the good thing about players like Marc is they never stop trying, and so there's always a chance they will deliver. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Collymore 4,134 Posted 3 January Report Share Posted 3 January I've always thought Marc had a bit of Messi about him. Similar body build, looks a bit like him and he can drop his shoulder In a way that would fool the best. I'm not even joking by the way before someone asks. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
