Ross 'LCFC' Turner Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 Great pace but that's it. Inconsistent, can't head, decision making is terrible and he can't finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 It always makes me chuckle that when Dyer is at full pace it looks like his legs are running away from the rest of his body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schlupp Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 He's been playing good as of late,But I still think he isn't good enough for the places we want to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonaldinho Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 So he has no tricks and isn't a great crosser, can be easily stopped. But you'd start him pretty much every week. We do because we have no other option, that needs to be changed but still hasn't. Pretty much, yes. On his day, when given time and space to run into such as at Derby, he is a big threat. But stick two players on him and he does next to nothing. There have been plenty of games this season where he is barely involved. I'd play him as we have no choice and I prefer to see 4-4-2. I dont agree with this at all. Dyer has been hugely underrated by some of our fans and Sven during his time with us. He has lightning pace, huge desire, a brilliant work ethic and unlike some wide players he will get back and do the ugly side of the game with enthusiasm. Before Sven came last season he was also by far our best player, and never deserved to be sidelined so often under the Swede. He can also genuinely beat a player and get a cross in, a rare commodity in today's game. Absolutely love Lloyd to bits, a huge asset to our team. I should've mentioned his work rate, that is second to none and certainly helps Konchesky out a lot. Yes he has lightning pace and a great worth ethic, but that is about it. He can only beat a man if he has the space to run in behind him, for example for his assist at Derby. But like I said, he should never have been left one on one with their RB as he will do him for pace and it was criminal of Derby not to prepare for it. He's a poor crosser of the ball usually, crosses such as the one for Danns just don't come round often enough for you to claim that he's a great crosser of the ball. Gallagher is a great crosser of the ball, Dyer isn't. Currently I'd have him in the team for his work ethic, his pace and the fact that he's the only left winger in the squad. He's a decent Championship player and very good to have around the squad because of the attributes he possesses and his love for Leicester, but I'd be disappointed if he was a first choice next season.

Chairman of the Bored Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 I love Lloydy. Leicester legend for the goal he scored at Hereford in Div One after which I knew we would get promoted. Doing good right now. Top bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sooper Steve's shin Posted 25 February 2012 Share Posted 25 February 2012 I like him. Pace is unquestionable and I agree he's like the whole team of the last couple of seasons, sometimes brilliant and sometimes laughable. Crossing is not exceptional for a winger (I think for the Danns goal v Derby he may have overhit a clip into the centre for Beckford/Nugent rather than picking out the incoming player) but on a good day he does get a fair number in and the quantity means there's the odd good one in there. And although he completely messed up the finish at the end in the Derby game, I think he does have finishing in his locker - there was a spell in the L1 campaign where he seemed to be scoring every game. Very much a confidence player and can really only play when the style of the game and setup of the team suits him - not as adaptable as other players. I would certainly have him in while we are playing the way we are and it would be great if he had even the tiniest bit of faith in his right foot.

Isn't it 11 v11.... wouldn't it mean than one player is unmarked???? Lloyd, Loyd will tear you apart, again............ Been saying this all season. Lloyd's pace is not only important in a one to one race between himself and the full back. It creates room for our strikers to find space especially if the opposition defence have to double up to counter his speed. If that room was regularly exploited we would be in a better league position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReyAzarola Posted 26 February 2012 Share Posted 26 February 2012 Every time i see him he justs looks like he's improved that little bit more. Most importantly he looks confident now, I expect him to continue getting better, he could be a key part of a good run in. Surely Cov at home next is our best chance of getting back to back wins??

HoustonFox Posted 26 February 2012 Share Posted 26 February 2012 Absolutely love him. Super fast and no one likes defending pace and he has it in abundance. Always gives 100% as well and pops up with goals at vital times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zingari Posted 24 March 2012 Share Posted 24 March 2012 OK I know Lioyd Dyer has got his faults and can be a little frustrating at times, but you have to admit he's a feckin exciting player to watch . Some of his runs today were absolutely tremendous . edit; echoing the OP Thank you Lloyd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearfox Posted 24 March 2012 Share Posted 24 March 2012 Dyer is the kind you need these days, bags of pace and always taking defenders away, very dangerous when cutting inside an asset for sure. Pearson has faith in him and I do as well. Why Sven never used him when Vassell was injured is beyond me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozwin Posted 24 March 2012 Share Posted 24 March 2012 He'd give Ronaldo a run for his money for pace, must be terrifying for the defence. On another level today, he's forming a mean partnership with Beckford too, always egging each other on which is great to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearfox Posted 24 March 2012 Share Posted 24 March 2012 isnt blessed with quality but wow he works so hard good goal too Agreed not Messi for sure but he's full of pace and scares defenders to death, he needs to cut inside a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmfox Posted 24 March 2012 Share Posted 24 March 2012 My highlight of the match (apart from goals) was when he ripped his defender down the line, kicked the ball along the goal line and ran the long way around to keep it in. That was pure class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
