He seemed to lose possession a lot yesterday.  Does anyone have stats on players losing possession yesterday?

 

With Thomas it's worse because of where he loses the ball. Often needlessly

He lost possession 19 times. 

 

Joseph 16

Skipp 10

Cullen 8

Braybrooke 7

BDR 7

What do we reckon is his actual level? I remember saying a while ago I genuinely believe he’s a league 2 level player but it’s becoming evident it’s lower than that

Thomas was terrible on the ball and it was clearly a Notts County game plan to try and let the ball come to him and press him. Looking at the stats though I’m assuming Cullo had the worst lost possession compared to how much possession he actually had as he was barely ever on the ball but when he did he was almost always robbed of it.

I always have said mid-lower level league one, possibly top league two.

 

Im revising that now after the Northampton and Notts County games.

 

I think he’s Conference National.

How many divisions do we need to drop before Thomas finds his level?

I genuinely don’t think he’d get in Anstey Nomads team and that’s 4 divisions below League 1.

so this is from the SAME person as I posted yesterday(this is from today)

 

stop the world, I'd like to get off please

[Cincinnati Fox]

The fact he keeps getting picked is an insult to the fans.

 

He looks incredible unfit! Absolutely knackered after half time !

just letting them have the ball as he can’t run.

simply unacceptable 

 

weak a piss ! Again unacceptable, what are they doing up at the spa??

get in the ****ing gym!

 

awful defender, just awful, embarrassing.

what the **** is he doing for the goal???

 

technically with the ball he is ok, ok but there are many technical ok players in Sunday football which is where he should be

Unbelievable he is a professional player!

 

Professional players are a different level in in L1/L2

He would just look ok playing Sunday football!

 

Joke he is paid to play football.

Heard a few say that he likes his drinks as if it might be a problem.

Think it's been rumoured quite a bit.

I’ve seen lumps of dried, white dog shìt in the park - which, when struck by a stray ball from a nearby friendly 6-a-side, provide a better first touch than Like Thomas ever has.

This is clearly a relative or mate of his rather than just an oddball City fan, has to be

I’ve never seen him kick a ball, but I’d put my house on McFarlane being better.

 

Presume that poster is one of his drinking buddies who started early.

Coulibaly must be wondering what he has to do to get in front of Thomas. Can't be any worse.

I don't think he has a level, he's one of those players that will be a bang average 5/10 in the PL or 5/10 in the National league playing the same way making the same mistakes each week. 

 

He's just happy to pick up his pay cheque with very little effort.

I’m still on here and still read the comments I just don’t bother getting in to debates anymore as it achieves nothing. 
 

You and every other fans has a view and that’s football and why we love it. 
 

What I used to take issue with was that he was being called a bully when VK arrived which was just a load of shit. 
 

Call him shit, unprofessional whatever you like this doesn’t bother me it’s your view and you’re entitled to it. It’s not my job to change that, that’s down to Luke and the manager. 

you quote 'why we love it?'

 

I actually hate it mate. The most Ive despised my club since Ive been alive. I dont watch LCFC anymore due to the like of Thomas and Choudhury playing for us. Yes granted this isnt solely their fault as we all know. Some div upstairs has given them a contract. The pair of them need binning off. Why would i pay good money to watch two bang average national league level kick a ball around on a Saturday

 

Once theyre gone, ill be back down the KP and cheering on the boys

[FoxesWalk]

The stick he gets is way over the top, but that is nothing new. Been far from our worst player in the opening few games. Reid has been shocking in both, and at the back Souttar and McCarthy have both been worse vs County. Skipp in the middle also worse in both games. I’d argue Cullen was also worse in both games, he was very average vs Northampton, and awful on Saturday.

That’s a great post!!

 

That pretty much sums up my feelings about these two players.

 

Now for the rest of the team!! There must be at least another five.

What pisses me off the most about him is that he doesn't really have a redeeming feature to his game.

What I mean by that is you can't exactly say "yeah he's shit but at least his crossing is top notch" etc.

 

He's the most plain footballer i've ever seen. Like a bag of salt and shake but you don't add the salt. He's not quick, not a hard worker, not physically capable, can't tackle, can't shoot, can't pass, can't cross and can't stop a cross.

 

Ridiculous that we gave him a 4 year contract last season. Utterly brain dead thinking from Rudkin yet again.

100%

 

Danny Simpson didn't have the best all round game but he could actually defend. 

 

We aren't asking him to be Roberto Carlos, we just want him to give it to the more talented players, stop a cross and defend the back post when the cross is coming form the other side.

Maybe football isn’t for you then mate. I’m sure if you go to any club some fans will have players they do not like or think they warrant a salary but will that stop them watching the team they support I’m not so sure? 
 

Luke or Hamza do not pick the team they are here to do a job and are chosen to play, now I get you think there shit and that’s fine but remember this is the manager that picks the team not them. Despite the hate Luke has been picked by several managers with the exception of enzo but enzo doesn’t play a LB and bombed him out of Chelsea despite him being a regular England starter. 
 

As I said before I’m not here to defend him that’s not my job that’s up to Luke to prove himself which he may never do in your eyes. If you think he’s Sunday league that’s fine but don’t hate on the lad that is being picked by his manager who watches them play every day. 
 

Hopefully for you the Man City lad replaces him, I’m a Leicester fan and if he does and is better than Luke then that’s great for the club.
