chris_lcfc_85 Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 Waghorn needs game time and I think we will see the best of him he has potential but he is stagnating injuries haven't helped him, best thing for him is to loan him out to get him game time I don't think the Under 21 is going to be enough for him any thoughts? Totally agree. He's a talented player that is now desperate for a run of games to prove himself again. Dont think he'll get that here so a loan would be perfect imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 If the Beckford to Huddersfield loan goes ahead and Schlupp continues to cover for LB then I can see Waghorn getting a regular spot on the bench alongside Futacs where he can be used in a variety of roles, striker, wing or in the hole depending on how Pearson may want to change the game. By all accounts and from viewing a stream it looked like he was doing a lot of defensive covering and dropping back into mid field so I'm presuming there could be a lot more being added to his game. He really needs to develop the use of his right foot more to improve his overall contribution to his game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbelladave Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 England's formation last night, before the subs anyway, was a 4-2-3-1 with Waghorn in the middle of the '3'. Worked hard throughout and was one of the better players in a rather disjointed England performance. Marshall pretty much stayed wide right, didn't try and come inside and get involved and didn't really get much going with Kelly or Clyne, the ful backs on the night. Not having a go at Marshall, we know he can do better, but one of those odd games where he stays wide (following instructions?) and doesn't get involved. He has played a few games like that for City, a waste in my view. Knockeart's goal was a very controlled finish, really need to get him starting for us but like Marshall he needs to be given the freedom to play anywhere in support of the striker(s).

Col city fan Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 Waghorn played a deeper role last night, pretty much the central attacking midfielder in a 4-2-3-1. Worked hard, got the assist, somewhat luckily, and had one of England's best efforts on goal. That said, it was no more than a workman like effort in an generally disjointed performance but he did make a big effort to make the most of his chance which was good to see. On the other hand, Marshall's performance was more subdued, staying wide right he looked decent on the ball but did not see anything like enough possession to be really influential. By contrast, Ince on the other flank looked pacy and threatening, happy to come inside and attack more centrally helped a lot by the willingness of Rose to overlap and provide the width. Overall a modest performance by England whose tactic of sitting back second half let Norway back into the game (where have we seen that before?...... ), good to see the City lads involved though..... Cheers for the info Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxesfan1989 Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 Great that Knockaert scored! Still really excited about him, hope he breaks into the first team ahead of Dyer soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shearfox Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 Knocky has a lot of potential and I think the only reason he isn't starting is due to Pearson wanting to ease him in a little, which is fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurmofox Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 can't find the result for the French game. who did they play and what was the score? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonaldinho Posted 11 September 2012 Share Posted 11 September 2012 Jonaldhino - we get it . You don't like Waggy. Move on. Got nothing against Waghorn, met the guy and was alright, and appreciate everything he's done for the club. I don't think he should be with the u21s squad though, am I not allowed to say why?
