[Kinowe Soorie]

Build the team around him, eventually, the captains arm band.

[StriderHiryu]

Great second half performance. Between him and Riccy P for MOTM for me.

 

He's the future of the club, no doubt about it. I expect him to be the main man, possibly as early as next season. Great attitude and always want to get the ball forwards.

[Tommy Fresh]

Got some lungs on him hasn't he

[Buzzell]

Crucial member of the side already. 

[Clever Fox]

Starting to feel a member of the team now that he's playing regularly. This can only be good both for him and his confidence.

I still feel he needs to improve his positioning when going forward but that's all part of his learning. 

[Foxes96]

MOTM for me today. Bags of energy and took up some really intelligent positions. Todays game epitomised what his game should be about high energy, and kept it simple on that left hand side meant Barnes was able to play high and wide and cause havoc. 
 

Would be interested to see him and Madders play as dual 8’s with Ndidi holding. Possibly the way forward for next season. 

[South Shire Fox]

Just find it totally bizarre he was dropped for the Forest game. Been one of our best and most tenacious players for months now. He is definitely the future

Really added much needed graft today. Not the most naturally gifted but compensates with his effort. Not overly pacy but appears to read his position well. An asset to the team and club. 

[ALC Fox]

Touch, control, positioning, work-rate, desire, defensively solid and excellent going forward.

 

Also, linking up with Barnes and Thomas, he gives us another decent left-footed option when you know Barnes wants to cut inside.

 

My couple of criticisms would be that he sometimes takes a little too long to release the ball (a bit of indecision, maybe) and he doesn't seem to have much confidence when shooting (they seem like snapshots as a last resort). When he shoots instinctively, he has good technique (e.g. against Napoli). He just needs to show it more often.

 

He's a really tidy player. With a bit more time, he could be one of our most influential. He and Thomas are probably the best things about this season so far.

Agree with this. If he can learn to play that killer ball then he will be amazing. Couple of times today he carried the ball excellently, but was to slow playing Daka through, who then ran offside expecting the pass which didn’t come.

[5waller5]

Great energy, great composure, rarely gives the ball away and looks to do something positive with every possession.

 

Just what we needed against Forest really!

[MalletFox]

I’m really enjoying seeing KDH play, brings good energy and athleticism to the middle of the park and is nice and sensible on the ball. Another good performance.

 

He’s one who seems to have his head screwed on so long may he continue to play and grow as he has the potential to be an excellent player for us.

[lcfc sheff]

He’s a proper athlete, just needs to work on his decision making 

[Silverfox14]

Great performance today 

[Dan]

I love him. I think he'll become like our Ward-Prowse (albeit a different style).

[coolhandfox]

Good to see him take some dead balls, he has good delivery 

[Raj]

Should be Captain by next season.

[Vacamion]

 

 

There was a bit in the first half when we’d been pretty awful for 25 minutes, we couldn’t beat West Ham’s press and the ball was given away a few times, with the crowd starting to get on the players backs.

 

KDH launched into a tackle in his own half, a real “get stuck in” job, he won the ball, we broke forward.

 

The atmosphere changed. Everyone was lifted.

 

Game changer.

It makes a mockery of the belief we're entitled, spoilt fans. We're one of the easiest fanbases to get onside- get stuck in, go on a storming run, do something positive and we'll respond.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Actually gives a fvck which is a nice change of pace.

This is it! It doesn't take a lot to lift the fans.

People understand when we're trying to make things happen and this is the case with KDH, even when he has an off game or period in a game the intention is there.

Moments of individuality and free thought like that won't endear him to our glorious leader. Don't worry though, he'll soon coach that bugger out of him!

 

How's anyone supposed to get to sleep in the stands if he's rushing about and running forward with the ball? Have a heart 🤣

HUUUUUUME

[LCCFox96]

KDH is undropable and should be a mainstay for every game he's fit to start from now until the summer. Some of his biggest qualities are his tenacity, running of the ball, energy, driving runs forwards and aggressive pressing and tackling. Lots of those things we are lacking as a squad so he's a vital player for us right now.

It's his work off the ball that's insane, I'd love to see his distance covered stats
