Cengiz Signs!

[enmac]

Barns, JV and Under as a front three looks mouth watering. Few, if any, better in the PL.

Fully fit this boy could be very good.

Looking to be the answer to our prayers. Please may I have another.

Oh come on, Mane, Firmino, Salah are a much better three.

Cengiz didn't have a preseason. He was off the club training in Roma for about 2-3 weeks in preseason because of his fore-standing  move to Napoli, which took too long and in the end they didn't agree and  he was back in training for 2-3 days and off to an international break and then another 2-3 weeks in Istanbul and around the world to do the visa things etc before joining Leicester and then again off  to an other  international break after a few days of training as you may recall ... .

 

Btw. you may not know this but his last injury he got at an international break similar to Cags now. I like to see them playing for Turkey but I am also always very concerned. There is an other international break coming soon, I hope everyone has learned their lessons and will be much more careful.    

 

Thanks for the context, it is great to have this kind of detail. The result meant a lot to the club, and it was great to see him at the centre of it all.

Yes, I'll give that to you. Maybe in a year or two. 

Can't think of many better for lcfc, apart from Glover, Wortho, Weller.

Good play today for his first start. Very speedy and imagine when he is fully fit! 

 

Unlucky with his shot just before he came off. Was ready to celebrate! 

 

He and Vardy will hit a lot of sides on the break. 

[StriderHiryu]

Really impressed with him against AEK, what a livewire! Unlucky not to score at least one!

He's looking so right for us already. 

[SecretPro]

Love him. 

[dayday]

It amazes me that some folk wrote him off after a 20 minute cameo, unbelievable.

[Scotch]

I think it's time to unleash the trio of Ünder, Vardy and Barnes against Leeds.

Might not have a vast amount of choice with the injuries stacking up...

[baldeagle]

Could teach Barnes a thing or two about tracking back and tackling 

[Hales]

He was good defensively as well, no issues with getting back and helping

Who else injured? 

[lcfcell]

like his defensive work as well, seems like the type of player we’ve been missing.

Castagne and possibly Evans. Not front players I grant you, but having a rapid 3 up front might offset defensive frailties...

So was it early this week like this......”Cengiz, this is Ricky, he is recovering from a nasty injury. You guys are gonna have some serious fun on the right side of the pitch when he is fully fit”

Let’s pray they were just rested!!

They weren't.

Yeah scrap that I’ve just seen it’s official. What a sad state of affairs our injury list is.

Castagne out for next three matches. Not so sure with Evans 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Ric Flair]

First touch can be improved upon but his pace and ability to defend and attack is looking ideal for us. Really impressed tonight, plenty more to come from him.

[StanSP]

A Roma fan said he never defends and it'll be something he never does.

 

Today proved different. One bit where he tracked back and nicked the ball off them and that was near our own box to then set up an attack. If he's already learning to do that after barely playing any substantial amount of time then it can only be a good sign.

I said at the time when we signed him that defensively he is underrated and will fit in will here, one of the Turkish posters said I was talking rubbish hahahaaa.
