KFS Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Definitely going to miss his pace. Quite a blow, that!
NathanC93 Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Such a shame, quality player and will miss him. I think if we can keep this back 4 until he is back we will be OK though.
rico Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 St Ledger could well be on the bench soon then Think the Spaniard be ahead of SSL
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Glad Moore can easily cover. Hope RDL has a quick return
Ric Flair Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Bit of a shitter but Moore, Wasyl and SSL can all play there.
NewburyFox Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Think today's defence will be our regular back four for the next few weeks then.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 St Ledger could well be on the bench soon then Is that what you think of SSL Kingfox? He is wank? That surprises me as I believed you thought he was good . . . .
Stadt Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 He does seem a bit injury prone, other than him it's only James and Whitbread that are injured regularly, I think we're quite lucky in that respect.
Tielemans63 Posted 19 October 2013 Posted 19 October 2013 Bugger. Love a bit of RDL me - I think he's a class player.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 Bugger. Love a bit of RDL me - I think he's a class player.I agree Padster, great player. Very consistent.
ADK Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 My only issue with RDL is his stamina. He often looks tired by the end of games and his is a position you usually play 90 minutes.
Dan Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 He's easily Naughton quality going forward but I think defensively he's far from perfect - then again I doubt we'll get better and the modern full back seems to emphasise as much on attacking as defending, if not more. Today's back four will become quite a regular one I think and I wasn't convinced by it today. The amount of chances they created was concerning.

Today's back four will become quite a regular one I think and I wasn't convinced by it today. The amount of chances they created was concerning. Agree with this though a lot of the problems for our back four stemmed from the ridiculous amount of space they were given in between the halfway line and just outside our own box. What did concern me though was the lack of pace at the heart of our defence. Moore was solid at right back but no more than that and going forward doesn't offer the cutting edge of DeLaet. Without better protection in front of the back four a better quality side with quick mobile players will cause us a lot of problems by moving our central defenders around. Their goal came from a poor mistimed challenge by our centre half who was forced to make that decision because the cover in front was non existent.
foxesfan98 Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 Hope he has a quick recovery as Moore isn't a right-back. He was caught out of position a lot yesterday and Wasilewsi will probably get sent off soon.
cityfanlee23 Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 I still think St Ledger has a role to play at Leicester city... He was an unfortunate brand of the Sven era, but his past career form cannot lie, He is a quality CB and an international at that. If him and nigel can sort their differences, and work with eachother as player/manager should, with the right training if he hits his form again, he would be knocking on the door of moore/wes IMO I like sledge. He just has a bad attitude.
cityfanlee23 Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 Am i the only one that doesnt rate de laet? Not the only one, Its not that I dont rate him, but he's far from brilliant. It's just leicester fans tend to overrate all of our young promising players...
Lineker's Left Foot Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 De Laet is good at going forward but as a defender the jury is out. Not sure if his absence will hit us as much as we think tbh
Leicesterpool Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 As much as i've been backing Moore to go right back more (hey get it) i think he looked a bit sloppy and uncomfortable there. Of course he used to be a right back however he's probably got so used to playing as a centre back he's probably forgotten his role at right back. Didn't Sean St Ledger once play in right back?
ousefox Posted 20 October 2013 Posted 20 October 2013 He hasn't been as good this season as last so far. Still will be missed but far from our most important player.
chrishlcfc Posted 21 October 2013 Posted 21 October 2013 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24609404?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=facebook he's got an infected leg edit:sorry didn't read the other article where it already says it.
Fox92 Posted 21 October 2013 Posted 21 October 2013 Moore can easily cover. I believe Moore is better defensively than De Laet. The only thing we will miss is his great ability at getting forward.
