Thomas poor for their second.  He was unlucky not to score at the death, but at least he was there.  VK would have been nowhere near it.

 

Throw ins are a plus and his set piece delivery is generally good.

How many goals have we got directly from those pointless long throws?

He might be rubbish, but can we finally admit he's better than VK?

Luke's not better than anybody, may be as bad as VK, but not better.

Schroedingers fullbacks.  They are both better and worse than the other at the same time

How many goals come from corners? Seems to me that all of you having yet another go at Luke is because we haven't lost so you can't have a go at the manager or the collective team so it's back to slagging off individuals. And, if he left, you'd find someone else to scapegoat.

This forum does love to slag off a fullback.

You forgot the bit about he is SHIT

What did VK do today that makes you think he’s worse than Thomas? Thomas was asleep at the back post for the equaliser, defended his own header for a possible winner and do we know he’s not in the pub tonight?

Even in the prem Mav would never pass to VK. I think he did one forward pass today and just blasted it instead of playing it to the area VK was running to. 

Clearly something there…

A low bar.  VK might even be more one footed than LT, and that’s saying something

I do not rate Luke Thomas but we have to be fair. His final throw in was excelent, made me think Stoke must have a narrow pitch however, great throw and yes we did create something, we hit the bar. When cross came back in from the left Thomas had got into the box, yes he hit the post, should he have scored maybe, but he got in there which is credit to him. The missed chance hurt him and for once I saw some proper emotion, the missed chance hurt him. May I also add that it was NOT his player that scored the equaliser, where was our wing back?

So fellow supporters please dont blame him for their equaliser or the missed chance, please be fair.

As said I dont rate him but also wont make him a scapegost for the draw.

Good half time team talk, proper manager

Have we really stooped so low that we’re giving credit to a player for getting into the opposing box?

 

You’re literally applauding the guy for doing something a 12 year old should do. Give your head a wobble and realise he’s supposed to be a professional footballer

If a clone of the best qualities of LT and VK were made, he would still be a mediocre defender.

I did feel some esprit de corps from watching him tussle with his Stoke namesake yesterday, but that is no excuse for repeatedly misreading crosses into own box. That is an automatic DQ for a defender.

[PingCower]

I reckon Rowett should try playing Thomas in midfield.

He let Wimot run off him for 1st goal, let's Seko run off him when he missed the open headed goal after the ball bounces back off the cross bar, doesn't go forward, he can't stay fit, doesn't give a shit about Leicester. 

 

Thomas isn't great defensively either but VK is a ****ing parasite.

Switched off at the back post again for their goal, and missed a last minute sitter 

 

...but he was the best of our 2 left backs today 🤔🫠

That's the level we're at!

Having looked at it again, agree it Mavididi mainly at fault for their equaliser.

 

But that miss showcases Thomas' weakness. All he has to do is head the ball back across the goal and he scores. Lack of footballing brain and handling pressure situations - he has the potential to be a solid FB, offers creativity and have said before he has a cultured left foot but his lack of nous and physicality hold him back.

I think he meant that he should try playing him in the middle of a field, in the middle of nowhere far far away from the King Power 

[teblin]

Going forward, he made a difference yesterday other than his chance of course. He didn’t play too badly. Obviously should’ve scored, the goal wasn’t on him as he had 2 to mark.

[john ridley]

One good throw in every now then doesn't  make up for how bad this  schoolboy footballer is.Out muscled ,out thought , and every game at least one goal is down to him .While he plays we'll be lucky to win another match .He's  not the only one mind ,but the worst. Thanks Rudkin for letting  him stinking the place out for the next 3 yrs.

Should've scored at the death no question.
