Luke Thomas

[reynard]

He's not good enough but he wasn't the worst player today by a long way.

Definitely wasn’t. Beaten by his winger every time he was taken on. 

[Mike Oxlong]

One of his better performances for us today 

 

3/10

[Mike the Metal Ed]

Bit of smart play to nudge that player into conceding a throw in. 

 

If I got outmuscled by Luke Thomas I'd retire.

[Corky]

Thomas on a four year deal to follow Choudhury's four year deal and Vestergaard's three year deal.

 

True value for money.

[filbertway]

Man he was so close to scoring an OG with his clearance earlier. Then did another mistimed header in the 2nd half that went out for a corner

 

Thought the commentator was on a mad one, youd have thought he was talking about prime Ashley Cole the way he was talking about Thomas.

Harsh - I gave him a 4 - poor 

[Swarles Barkley]

I played bubble football recently.  You can’t really kick the ball and you just kind of bash into other players and hope for the best. 
 

Thomas reminds me of this

Really don't get this hatred of Thomas. Feels like a form of bullying.

It’s not hatred, and it’s not bullying.

 

It’s criticism.

 

I knew giving out participation awards would result in this!

He usually gives his best, which isn't amazing, but he's got guts, and I respect that.

He's crap and while he plays like a teenager he isn't even that young (24).

 

There is zero chance we'd have signed him if he played somewhere else.

 

I guess I'd still play him though - no other options and he does try.

Thank the lord we have a DOF who knows what he’s doing, don’t know where we’d be without Rudkin guiding us to Div 1

I think it’s time we either play aluko or switch Ricardo to lb. Something needs to happen

Simply has to Try Aluko. He’s better than Thomas, Thomas is a horrific footballer….

Yeah I agree, the best case scenario is a 6 out of 10 performance from him. It’s really not that much of a risk or it’s at least worth finding out

Absolutely no bullying. He’s one of many of the squad who get criticised for being part of a team that got relegated and are now becoming the laughing stock of The Championship. He’s probably a good lad off the pitch. People just comment on his performances for Leicester and over the last two seasons he’s simply not been good enough. The season before that Enzo had a look and didn’t want him and he embarked on an unsuccessful loan at Boro and Sheffield Utd where he was criticised by their fans. He’s targeted by opponents every game.
 

The frustration with him is that although he’s been poor for us and we are struggling financially, he’s been given a wage doubling 4 year contract. That’s not his fault but amplifies fans frustration with him and especially with the club.

Aluko should be given a go but last time he got a red card and Ricardo at lb was a disaster as well when he tried it.

 

Just shows the state of the squad we have

Agreed, I can partly understand the difficulty in getting a goalscorer in but decent full backs? that should be a much easier proposition for a DOF. 
We’ve been left with a choice of a lightweight, a sick note, an aging Ricardo and a very average midfielder playing out of position. It’s truly pathetic and shows 0% forward planning.

The same Ricardo who has also been awful but seems to get a free pass from a lot of fans.Gets beaten for pace by just about anyone these days as he runs through treacle.

He’s still a load better than Thomas.

Still means he is crap.Been superb for us years ago but is a busted flush so why does anyone think he could play left back, to be honest he can’t play right back.
