Lineker's Left Foot Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Sorry if in post match thread, but anyone think that RDL looked absolutely knackered last night during the game? Does he need a rest or does anyone know if he was ill?? Liam Moore could deputise the odd time I suppose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webbo Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special. Absolute rubbish. He's been one of the top five players for us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unabomber Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special.

Legend_in_blue Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special. Can't think of too many RBs at this level that would do a better job. He's decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisp packet Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 I think the international break has come at a great time for a lot of our players ... Give them a well earned rest !!! They deserve it?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special. You've had something against him since he joined, without even seeing him play.. De Laet is good in the air, he can defend and especially attack. He has been one of our better players this year, and I think we'd struggle to get a better right full back at this level. He isn't a superstar, but you don't need a team of superstars to win promotion, as we've all seen down the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Absolute rubbish. He's been one of the top five players for us this season. I would put Schmeichel, Morgan, Drinkwater, James, Knockaert, Wood and Nugent all ahead of him. Can't think of too many RBs at this level that would do a better job. He's decent. He's decent going forward, defensively he is poor, we have seen it so many times this season, just because he is decent going forward, it doesn't make him one of our best players, defensively he is not good enough, he made so many mistakes last night, I rate him in an attacking sense, but defensively as proved last night, he is not good enough.

So poor defensively that the stat exists to say we haven't conceded down the right (not sure if last nigh counts as the right or what) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats just ridiculous! So what youre saying is if a player has an off game, he is suddenly poor at his job? Hes only human and has put some fantastic shifts in of late. You are talking dross.

The Year Of The Fox Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 I'd say he's probably the best RB in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcmatt93 Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 De Laet is a great defender. Could use him like Jeff schlupp, play him at Left Back like normal or as a striker - great attacker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special. First half he defended well. A number of times Sako was running at him and he kept his eye on the ball and came away with it the vast majority of times. In fact, I don't think he got beat at all first half and stopped a number of crosses coming in. Second half he was under more pressure, but he was by no means over-run. What have you got to say about the fact we've yet to concede a goal down our right side this season? It goes against your ramblings somewhat.

LCFCstriker Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 He's been very good most of the season but I agree the last couple of games he hasn't been his normal energetic self and has looked a little bit laboured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spudulike Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Any idea why Liam Moore wasn't on the bench last night ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guesty Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 He didn't have a great game but he had no protection or cover from Knockeart at all. Can't be easy defending against their best player with no help and no outlet in front of you because half the time Knockearts gone central. I think the fact some people don't even realise this shows what a good job he's done all season. Marshall and Dyer both covered for Konchesky when he went forward so he had time to get back. De Laet doesn't have that, so he has to sprint forward then sprint back just as fast - no wonder he looked knackered towards the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jollie Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 I agree he wasnt as good as usual last night but he made a superb challenge on Sako near the touch line about 15 minutes! Hes improving game by game...dont forget hes relatively young still...wouldnt swap him for anyone in the Champ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambert09 Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 I think it was due to the quality of the opposition (Sako) and tbf to Ritchie I think he did a great job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bausor Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 Yeah richie is garbage! Dont know what man u seen in him to sign him must of been his hair cut! Grow up op! Hes part of a back four that have the best defence this league has right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tielemans63 Posted 1 February 2013 Share Posted 1 February 2013 He's been terrific this season. Both full-backs get far too much stick IMHO. They both look to get forward as much as poss and we still have the best defence in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meadows Fox Posted 2 February 2013 Share Posted 2 February 2013 de laet has been excellent this season, maybe not his best game last night but i think sako would give most full backs a hard time! looked a good winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he need a rest or does anyone know if he was ill?? Liam Moore could deputise the odd time I suppose He had no protection & was doing the defensive work of two people (this blunted his usual pacey attacking threat too) & he was playing against their best player Last night proved, why I think he is a very average player and nothing special. Must be some sort of joke, surely? Good, solid, pacey young player who's not let us down yet... Sure someone said we've yet to concede a goal from that flank? Speaks for itself.
