Jordan Ayew - NEVER PLAYING FOR LEICESTER AGAIN!!!

[Noahfence]

He will probably look unbelievable in the championship 

[Corky]

It is like watching walking football most of the time then second half he gets a burst of pace out of nowhere to reach a ball.

[Simonb]

Has a distinct lack of pace and mobility.. but he isn't as lazy as he looks. Proper hard worker. Holds the ball up well which is pointless in a team where it takes half hour to get players up the pitch

 

That being said.. we need to do everything we can to get rid.. working hard is good, but ability wise he's way below what we need 

[acb]

The only player in the squad you can play a ball up to and it sticks. One of our most consistent players this season. Gets undeserved stick for some reason

Agree. Good ball handler, but slows down and chokes the attacks every time he's involved. 

[teblin]

Decent yesterday, had had some decent games. Not a winger anymore.

 

Could see him as an option in games next season as a 9/false 9 with pace either side of him.

[VictorFox]

Think he only gets stick because of his age and the money spent on him

 

If we’d signed him on a free everyone would say he’s had a decent season 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Hate to say it but he's probably worth keeping around next season. Brilliant at drawing fouls and getting us up the pitch which is extremely useful in that league.

Agree. He’ll be good in the championship. He’s looked ok at times this season I think. Always pissed off when he gets subbed off as well. 
 

Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s into his agent trying to get a move, but could do a decent enough job for us. 

[Spiritwalker]

He was one of our better players yesterday.

[AKCJ]

He's a lazy bastard but I'm very sure he'll do well next season.

 

Not the type to score 15-20 goals but he'll help let out wingers (our best assets) shine at that level.

I think Ayew has been the worst of our signings by any means (looking at you BCR, Skipp, and Edouard) - you could argue he's been one of the better ones given the key role he's played in a few of our wins. 

 

His goals return for us is his best in years at a PL level.

I’d agree with his.

 

His legs are going which clearly needs to be managed but he really is low down on our list of issues. 

[LCFCJohn]

Obviously I’d like us to shift BDR and Ayew but if Ayew plays more central, I’d be ok seeing him stay as long as BDR goes if we can only shift one as he offers far less than Ayew and is less versatile than Ayew given he only plays out wide where we have strength in numbers already. 
 

Same as at CB, I’d like us to shift Faes, Vestergaard and Coady but if we can shift the first two, Coady for the last year of his contract (same as Ayew) in the Championship I could tolerate.

[Staffs Fox]

He certainly wasn’t what was needed this season but if he’s still here, he’ll be great in the Championship, with him Mavididi, Fatawu and a new number 9 we should be ok in that part of the pitch. I wish I could say the same about the other parts though

If he is still here next season then hopefully he will look to go forward more and much quicker

 

Quite a few times yesterday he would go backwards or when he did pass forward he just took ages to do it

[sylofox]

Am hoping he fvcks off

Age and money, yes, I agree it weighs against him, but weirdly, because he always looks mardy and  he can't smile properly, it has always looked like he hates being on the the pitch and can't be arsed.

 

This causes him to be given even less leeway with those watching.

 

FWIW, I agree with those who suggest he'll be a decent asset in the Championship.

He is getting older not younger hardly going to be any quicker 

[Fox92]

The best thing is that he can actually hold the ball. I have thought that all season. Probably our only forward option that can do it.

I agree.  He has actually surpassed my (admittedly vey low) expectations.  He just wasn't the player we should have been signing but that's not his fault.

[CosbehFox]

His second highest goalscorer season at Premier League level 

[coolhandfox]

The issue has been with him or anyone else individually. 

 

The issue was playing him, Vardy and BCDR on the same side, due to the lack of pace and mobility

Cost £5M which is nothing and at 33 he's not that old

Never understood why he wasn’t played centrally more often. Could have allowed Vardy a rest
