Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 8 August 2021 Share Posted 8 August 2021 18 minutes ago, TJB-fox said: Been a missing piece for a while. I genuinely can’t think of the last decent corner taker we had. Whenever I think of Leicester city and corners I just get flashbacks of Maddison, Waghorn, David Bell, Knockaert, Marshall standing over it only to hit the first man every single time without fail Some of you may be wondering how David Bell made it onto this list. He was the ultimate front post corner taker. Could barely get it off the ground every single time And yet when Bell was signed we had high hopes he might take us to the next level Play for free Nicky Summerbee and Steve Guppy the best dead ball deliverers in my life time I think.

More than good enough to start for us now, Thomas is very very good. True, its good for players to have competition though and we seem to have that in every position now, it will only make us an even better team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bizarre statement but BR……it could be that they do lft’s every morning so that if he was first positive this morning then he wouldn’t have infected anyone yesterday.

He's started 2 games so a bit early for comparisons no? But personally I really like him, great blend of experience and strength and athleticism. Deffo starts for me at the moment.

Tielemans63 Posted 16 September 2021 Share Posted 16 September 2021 Little moments like the way he stayed down to try and take the sting out of the Napoli pressure make me think he's a good addition and his experience will be vital. I know that the way he stayed down might be viewed as cynical but I genuinely think our boys are too nice, too honest sometimes. I don't mind seeing that gamesmanship from Bertrand, it's part of the game whether you like it or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you not see Thomas get bullied by Coufal at West Ham. He’s good, Thomas but his light weight & inexperience sees him behind Bertrand at the minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lookman had done the same near the end, he could have taken the yellow instead of Wilf getting sent off. We're too soft, especially in Europe, and it showed up again tonight.
