Heymister2015 502 Posted 21 December 2020 Report Share Posted 21 December 2020 First time I saw him was against England in the World Cup and he ran the show! Looked quality. Never thought he’d end up at Leicester Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Great to see that he's clearly a leader on the pitch, too - something we've not always been blessed with at Leicester. I think it’s more a case if we play well, he plays well, when we’re shit he goes hiding. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He might still improve some of them. E.g., 1. He is slow 2. He is not a good defender, 3. He is not really a goal threat (I hope he will improve this) 4. He is not good in the air 5. He is not a ball carrier. He is a pure "distributer and disentangler" and really good at that, and he has strength. With the right people around him he is very valuable. He played a great match against the Spurs for sure, but that is one match. How was he against Everton? Are you actually a Leicester fan? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Spurs were shite yesterday but you wouldn’t say Barnes is better than Son because he was more involved in the game You are entitled to your opinion but I believe you are horribly wrong. I'm not judging on yesterdays game. I'm judging on the last two seasons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rarely takes more than 2 touches and see's the pitch almost like he's sat in the stands. The only disappointing thing about him so far has been his shooting. I had always thought he was a bit of Gerrard/Lampard in that he had a good finish in him. He's very erratic though, much like Maddison. I thought we'd be seeing this on a sem- regular basis I have to agree. I remember watching the highlights videos when he signed on loan with us. There were numerous goals, plenty from outside te box. Obviously, in hindsight, they must've included every single one. Ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ever. scored two long rangers for belgium this year already, fairly sure it is a thing at leicester about us minimising number of long shots we have - explains why we have such high shot conversion rate 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post honeybradger 787 Posted 26 December 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted 26 December 2020 Belgian iniesta, completely ran the show for the first 60 minutes, faded out of the game a bit but so did a lot of the team. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gevans_97 371 Posted 26 December 2020 Report Share Posted 26 December 2020 his best performance in a Leicester shirt in my opinion. Especially first half. Fantastic footballer. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StanSP 30,207 Posted 26 December 2020 Report Share Posted 26 December 2020 Thought he controlled the game well and showed some nice touches and skill. He does well against a side like Utd when Ndidi is there as protection defensively. I like his playmaker role from deep. Enjoying his performances so far this season 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One of the best performances I've seen by a midfielder for this club. This season he's been brilliant against Man City, Arsenal and Spurs away from hoe, and now brilliant against Man United at home. He did have an off day against Liverpool, but for me he's starting to hit the heights of what he can do because he's shown he can do it against the best clubs. For me he is the best midfielder in the division for what he does - getting the team playing from a deeper possession and if he has an off day, we usually lose. Just wished I could be there to watch him play, he's a joy to watch. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post martyn 1,641 Posted 26 December 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted 26 December 2020 (edited) Do not agree that Tielemans had loads of space today at all. A lot of the time, especially first half, he was under semi pressure and often had to use his body control and an immaculate first touch to end up making things look easy. Very good performance from him. Edited 26 December 2020 by martyn 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
