Dominating the ball… need to turn that into chance creation

KDH is a little concerning tbh, his touch seems way off

He's killed 3 or 4 decent attacking opportunities already with sloppy passes

McAteer is doing a decent enough job. He's not offered much in forward areas but he's covered back well and defended. It's still early....

I think he’ll be one of the positions we look to upgrade. 

[Hales]

Love Harry Winks 😍 

[Cincinnati Fox]

Keeper a breath of fresh air with the ball at his feat.

[Leeds Fox]

Faes playing like a man possessed. 
 

Only 20mins in but he looks head and shoulders above what we will see this season at CB. 

[DJ Barry Hammond]

70% possession means auto-win doesn’t it?

[The Quick Brown Fox]

Still early but I'm liking how we are playing, the CBs having the passes between them but then when the space is there it's a quick attack. Lovely one touch stuff in the that gets us forward. 

 

As I said still early but the signs are good.

Hopefully Ricardo getting bullied off the ball in our own half isn’t going to be a recurring theme this season 

It likely will be as its literally part of the tactics for him to revieve the ball under pressure. Misplaced passes or a non perfect first touch will result in that happening

[EastAnglianFox]

Winks is gonna be such a fan favourite aint he

[MPH]

If this was Rodgers who had assigned Ndidi the job of bursting into the box I’d be laughing , but Maresca must have unlocked a new upgrade skill in him to be doing this. genius move!!

Casadei is a creative type and I don't think that both of Nacho and Daka leave.

Right now I'd be tempted to bring Nacho on for KDH and let him slot between the midfield and Vardy. We don't really have anything in that pocket of space and we ae just being forced wide to cross into nobody. 

[Guest Bilo]

We need to turn some of this dominance into goals.

[Sampson]

Playing well but really lacking a creative player in this side to play the final ball without Maddison. None of Winks, KDH, Ndidi, Mavididi or McAteer really look like creative players who can unlock a defence.

Definitely, just saying he's doing alright given he's probably wary of having to cover down that right hand side when Ricardo moves inside.

[Fazzer 7]

Should be 1 up by now

 Definitely 

[Tommy Fresh]

Steven Taylor pretend it didn't hit my arm right there

[Cincinnati Fox]

Ref is crap but so

nice not having VAR!!

[Hales]

It's so nice to see some confidence and belief

[Tuna]

Close call.

[Parafox]

How on earth did Coventry get 2nd place last season 

[egg_fried_rice]

Get a couple of proper attacking 8s in and we’re laughing.
