Personally, I don’t think he’s shown anywhere near the level to be warranting starting games ahead of the other strikers we have in the squad. To me, from what we’ve seen so far he lacks a presence. He’s not a striker that dominates a back line or puts fear into defenders through pace, power or skill. Very difficult to show a presence when you're on the bench.

KFS Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Hermansen Ricardo Coady Vestergaard Faes Winks Ndidi KDH Fatawu Vardy Mavididi Sub on: Daka, Praet and Justin. I was feeling marginally optimistic after today but after reading the Ipswich forum, I think we’ll be promoted on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy_Jeff Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Mads JJ Coady Vestergaard Choudhury Winks KDH Ricardo Fatawu Vardy Mavididi Back 4 selected to allow JJ to deal with Adam Armstrong and Choudhury to invert which should help look after Brooks who likes to come inside. HC deserves to play after West Brom performance. Would prefer Ricardo in there with Wilf to come on from bench. Strong bench with Faes, Doyle, Praet, Yunus Mcateer and Cannon available 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not a striker that dominates a back line or puts fear into defenders through pace, power or skill. I wouldn't say it's an obsession with Tom Cannon. It's more like most are fed up with Daka missing chance after chance, having dreadful technique & realising Kelechi offers very little & is probably leaving. Vardy also can't play game after game. Personally, l don't think Cannon has done a lot wrong, when given his strangely limited opportunities. All about opinions l guess.

They have the players to really hurt us.. Quite right. We're a shambles at the back at times and excel at losing possession far too easily. Add to that the lack of pace. They have to do better on Tuesday. Let's be honest, WB should've had 3 goals yesterday. Faes stands off far too often Imo, is that because he's not quick enough?

Chelmofox Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Interesting that people think Riccy will play the midfield role. Could be the reason why Ndidi played the whole game even though we was shattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniFox21 Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Faes needs dropping for this game. Defensively and positionally all over the place; didn't know if he was pressing or dropping and got us in so many issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Spudulike Posted 21 April Popular Post Share Posted 21 April The three centre back formation doesn't work with the players we have. Completely exposed in the right full back position (note WBA goal yesterday) and shouldnt be expecting young Abdul to cover it off. We won't get away with it again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Ricardo's positional awareness papers over a lot of cracks, and Hamza's performance yesterday is being overrated slightly because of the goalline clearances. Abdul was having to do a huge amount of defensive work. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnup Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Dropping Rick because of goal line clearances is insane. We need our best 11 and Hamza isn't in that. I'd be amazed if there was any changes apart from playing the rested Ricardo again. I don't think Enzo is happy with Cannons pressing ability , it has to be the reason he's not included. Same for Kel but we know that's true. I think we win this but Leeds get something at Boro. Pulverise Preston then party at home for Blackburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 21 April Share Posted 21 April Vardy won't start, it'll be Daka so we're starting with 10 men. Going to be a slog for both sides but I think a fresh Ricardo in the middle will be the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been that way most of the season, It's taken clubs a while to figure us out. We should have went back 4 with Wilf or Hamza covering in front of them. To make sure we were picking up points every game so close to the finishing line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulverise Preston then party at home for Blackburn Ricardo was absolutely rested with Southampton at home in mind. I’m shocked people can’t see it. The only way both play us if Ricardo goes in at 8. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
