davieG Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 OS Posted: Tue 05 Feb 2013 Author: Leicester City Nigel Pearson and Ben MarshallImage by: Plumb Images With the Foxes currently occupying second position in the npower Championship, midfielder Ben Marshall admits he is enjoying life at the club. The 21-year-old was signed by Nigel Pearson from Stoke City a little over a year ago and his recent fine displays have helped in-form Leicester secure five straight league wins. Marshall’s run of eight consecutive starts for the side in all competitions has also coincided with the current eight-game unbeaten run, dating back to the 1-0 defeat to Cardiff City at King Power Stadium on 22 December, 2012. “I’m happy enough,†said Marshall, who has scored four times for the Foxes so far this campaign. “I’ve been playing, and I’ve just got to keep doing what I’ve been doing and stay in the side. “It has been a good year. I’ve even managed to get an England [under-21s] call-up out of it and I’ve really enjoyed it since I’ve been here. “I’ll have to thank the manager for bringing me in – I’m really happy. “It’s getting to that side of the season now where it (promotion) starts to feel more realistic; every time you win you think ‘were getting up there’. “Everyone is confident and we just want to get to the next game and win.â€
Guest BlueBrett Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Marshall’s run of eight consecutive starts for the side in all competitions has also coincided with the current eight-game unbeaten run, dating back to the 1-0 defeat to Cardiff And there you have it. The perfect definition of the word 'coincidence'.
Alexikokopops Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 I like how the OS goes from "I'm happy enough" to "I'm really happy". Textbook headline writing.
Ric Flair Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 He's starting to come in to a bit of form, I fancy him to score a screamer this saturday.
NewburyFox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 I like how the OS goes from "I'm happy enough" to "I'm really happy". Textbook headline writing. I thought this, until I noticed that he actually says “I’ll have to thank the manager for bringing me in – I’m really happy."
MooseBreath Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 He's starting to come in to a bit of form, I fancy him to score a screamer this saturday. You reckon? He was anonymous on Thursday, hardly did anything at all
Charl91 Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 You reckon? He was anonymous on Thursday, hardly did anything at all He was really good first half. Just didn't have a great second half.
coolhandfox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 You reckon? He was anonymous on Thursday, hardly did anything at all Put in a shift and worked hard for the team.
nickelbyfox Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Really like his effort and is a really good mix both defensively and attacking - didnt play the best on Thursday but seeing both him and Knocky tracking back was great to see from hard working yet skillful wingers!
WhenYourSmilingLCFC Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Is he in the England U21 squad tonight or?
Simmo86 Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 Becoming a scapegoat for some, which is ****ing stupid!
Bert Posted 5 February 2013 Posted 5 February 2013 We all know what he's capable of. A great player who chips in with goals, assists and works hard for the team. Every player goes through a dip in form, let's hope he's over his.
