Luke Thomas

[FoxesTalker]

The revival in form of our youngest ever FA Cup winner has been a positive to take away from this season. Hopefully he carries the recent momentum into next season and gets given the number 3 shirt if/when Faes moves on.

Had another good game. Get’s proper stuck since he came back. Fair play.

[moore_94]

Thought he was gonna have Hutchinson towards the end 

[OwnGoal]

No idea what wages he’s on but he will be more than good enough for us next season playing left back.

Where has the aggression come from? Looks a player at the moment. Been twice the player Kristiansen has been this season. 

[UniFox21]

Very impressive again. Have to keep him around 

[Aleksz]

Penny has defo dropped with him. Looks a different player, as others say seems to developed some aggression - also a bit of a shithouse streak too.

Turning into Stuart Pearce

[Tuna]

So pleased he's turned it round. First choice LB next season.

When VK was letting players drift past him countless times at the back stick, annoying how long it took for Ruud to change it up and bring in Thomas.

 

I have never previously been sold on him, but genuinely one of our very few bright sparks this season.

Yeah for sure. I know it's probably projection on my part, but it definitely feels like he's channelling the fans a bit. 

[Hales]

He has bulked up and has a new aggression which is great! 

[Iwebema]

For me he was always too weak under Rodgers, looked scared and timid, didn't like defending the back post.

 

But since he's come back, he doesn't look physically bigger but he has become noticeably more physical and aggressive in his game play.

 

Very happy to have him next season, we are building a nice homegrown young team again which would bring me back from the despair of this season and the end of Vardy.

I think so too....him and Kasey seemed to have fight when the others didn't!

[Wolfox]

I like him a lot…. His improvement has been immense 

 

i suspect he’s always had it in the locker,  but 80% of performance can sometimes be between the ears…

 

he’s evidently found aggression, commitment and enthusiasm….  That allied with a bit of positional nouse means he looks like a good left back to me

 

I’m so delighted for him 

[george9746]

I know he’s been playing well recently but has anyone noticed he keeps getting voted man of the match on the BBC football ratings? Always seems to get a 8.5 score or above. (Every match) 

bizarre. Must be mates someone who runs the website !

Yet that “fight” wasn’t introduced into a hideous starting 11, until our fate was practically sealed.

[TrentFox]

The physicality he’s now showing is much needed and very welcome. Happy to do a 180

degree turn and say he might yet be a good player for us, moving forwards. Full credit to the lad ✊

[Noahfence]

We are going to need players like Luke going forward 

[lookwhaticando]

Player of the match again according to the voters in the BBC Sport pages covering the match. 
 

That’s got to be the longest streak ever recorded at this point, been about seven games by now. 

[Skidmark]

The speed of that run to track back when Faes won the ball.

 

Winding up the away fans with the speed of his throw ins too. Quality.

My brother (who's not a Leicester fan) pointed this out to me the other week and I thought it was just because he was actually playing well. But then he had a couple of average games and still got that rating so definitely got a bunch of mates or family voting for him

[00rawat]

I've given him stick to him in the past,but of recent his really  stepped up last few games like other have said, should defo be first  choice lb next season,love seeing his aggression ,add to that  he looks alot bigger!! Long may it continue!!

[AKCJ]

Played well today. Easy to get stuck in against a lad like Hutchinson whose legs are that thin they're probably see through but still.

 

Developed a gob on him too. Not afraid to have a go at people around him.

[lfu]

I think that RvN's clamour for increased professionalism and higher standards around the club has been a huge turning point for him, and that he's applying himself a lot more as result.

Really happy to see his turnaround, this is the player we all saw in him when he was first blooded into the team.
