Raj Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Rubbish. The squad is showing signs of progression. James, Drinky, Knocky, DeLaet are only going to get better IMO. Just because we used Wellens in one game to compliment a tactical change don't mean that we aren't progressing as a squad. I've always maintained its NEXT season that I think we'll be promoted, if Pearson stays and we retain the squad. Just a couple of real quality additions, especially in the midfield will make a big difference IMO. This season, though I'm hopeful, I believe my prediction of 7th will be the case. I'm also expecting Wellens to leave in the summer. If Wellens was,like Bert said the best player in midfield V Cardiff,don't really speak highly of the squad in general does it? Wellens was also played at Huddo away ffor your info! Dont let us be the Liverpools of the Premier League...Its always next season Think the owners are gonna keep splashing out millions for us to go up"next Season"? Your remark about getting really quality additions...what are ANY signings we make?...Surely every signing should be a QUALITY signing or are we just signing for the sake? But like i said i aint into hammering any one player or the manager in particular...i'll hammer the fcuking lot!
beemeroo Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Only a Leicester fan can see the phrase 'best player in the midfield' and use it as a negative. I despair.
Raj Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Only a Leicester fan can see the phrase 'best player in the midfield' and use it as a negative. I despair. Im not ACTUALLY moaning about him being the best player in midfield. Im moaning about erm......I actually have no fcuking clue what im moaning about to be honest.!
ian the fox Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Welln it proved only one thing , weve been at least one body short in cental midlfield for a lot of matches
okie fox Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 I do not think he is good enough anymore for LCFC and I have serious doubts that he is good enough for this level of football. His record over the last year is abysmal. If, as a club, we are having to go back to Wellens then we are in trouble. Try and be a little objective. Wellens over the last year: 6 months out injured. A month's loan to Ipswich to regain fitness. He did well enough for Mick McCarthy to want to extend his loan. Two FA cup games in a weak team after no games for a while. Cardiff game where apparently he played well. That is not abysmal !

Lambert09 Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 As I said at the time he was a good choice for that game. As we needed to be hard to break down and keep possession, against derby it would be foolish to use him as we need to be attacking them. I would bring Knocky In for him and play 442.

Yet if you use stats he has been.
JoeyB Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Yet if you use stats he has been. If you use stats RVP has scored 1 in his last 9, don't mean he's rubbish does it?
okie fox Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 Yet if you use stats he has been. Most of the stats are for when he played for Ipswich when they were abysmal. Win percentage is a team stat, not an individual one.

Ok lets ignore the ten matches after his injury and look from March last year P12 W3 D2 L7. That is abysmal.

iancognito Posted 14 March 2013 Posted 14 March 2013 If we play two holding midfielders against Derby then we've really lost our confidence. They really are the epitome of an average division 2 team, not good enough to be top ten, not crap enough to be bottom six. They have two or three decent players you can call attacking threats, we have about 6 and should be looking to win the game, not hope for the best. Drinky, King, Knockaert and Dyer behind Nugent and Wood. The last couple of times we've played them they've been sh!tting themselves whenever we ran at them, I'm not sure Wellens has enough pace to strike fear into them
fleckneymike Posted 14 March 2013 Author Posted 14 March 2013 Damn it is His fault then Where have I blamed him? I have simply stated he isn't good enough, and quite frankly I feel that anyone who thinks he is, is quite frankly, deluded.
Raj Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 You should call the phone in on Monday. I used to be a regular moaner on there..You must remember Raj from Evington?? Im now Raj from Thurnby and even i cant get to the depths of ringing the fcukers up anymore!
okie fox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Ok lets ignore the ten matches after his injury and look from March last year P12 W3 D2 L7. That is abysmal. You can say anyone (Schmeichel?, Morgan?) who played in almost all those games was abysmal. Wellens was injured after 10 minutes of the West Ham game so you will have to find a different scapegoat for that loss.
hackneyfox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 okie Do you seriously believe Wellens is good enough nowadays?
Harry - LCFC Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Where have I blamed him? I have simply stated he isn't good enough, and quite frankly I feel that anyone who thinks he is, is quite frankly, deluded. Deluded is a bit strong, suggests that people aren't even thinking when they make their judgement. He played well against Cardiff and I feel he's good enough to play the odd game here and there as cover for one of our CMs. To call people deluded for having that opinion is exaggerating in the extreme.
spittingfeathers Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Okie.....do you believe King's been good enough all season ????
okie fox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 okie Do you seriously believe Wellens is good enough nowadays? I haven't seen Wellens play this season so I don't know. I just object to people cherry picking statistics to scapegoat players they don't like . I could use Fleckney's logic to blame Drinkwater for the current bad form, but it would be unfair to single him out.
_Fatboyslow_ Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Okie.....do you believe King's been good enough all season ???? Has he been fully fit all season?
okie fox Posted 15 March 2013 Posted 15 March 2013 Okie.....do you believe King's been good enough all season ???? He has his good games, but I wish he were more physical.
