Think you've had enough Internet for the day pal. Crack open a beer and watch some telly, play with the kids, harass the missus, walk the dog, who gives a shit who's being mean to Marc Albrighton on social media. I assure you Marc Albrighton doesn't and he if doesn't you shouldn't. That's a bit personnel. Unnecessary even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jeffschlupp Posted 5 September 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 5 September 2020 Convincing anyone as good as Marc Albrighton to be 4th/5th choice winger at a club like Leicester is going to be an almost impossible task. The guy is a top professional, example to younger players, seemingly happy to be a squad player, and offers something different to the modern day winger. Players like Albrighton, Mendy, Fuchs, Morgan and Jakupovic are unlikely to get in our best matchday 18 when everyone is fully fit. And that 18 will probably take 90% of the minutes on offer over the season. But those pros will be there to do a job in the 10%, and that 10% is probably the difference between ensuring your key players are fit and healthy when it matters, and not. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a very limited player If you think we're going to fill our 25 man squad with players that are all better than Albrighton's standard I think you'll be disappointed. He won't be in our first 11 given other options but he will have a part to play this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted 5 September 2020 Share Posted 5 September 2020 Albrighton us still good at what he does. The problem is we haven't played that way for seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, we'll start the season without any senior cover no.8 players given Maddison is injured. KDH isn't ready yet I wouldn't think, I would definitely take McGregor if we are sticking to 4-3-3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
