Drinkwater Creates more than Carrick.

Fair play to him! You get less time on the ball in the championship, sign of a quality player

 

Than The Premier League?

[StanSP]

Well in a more successful team in their respective leagues, the stats are bound to look better.

 

(not taking anything away from Drinky. Been in top 3 Leicester players this season anyway!)

[FoxTrott]

Reminds me of the Modric of Spurs a few seasons back. The catalyst that makes the everything in the engine tick along in the right direction - if you watch him for one game, you may not notice anything. As Sqwaka well points out, a master at positive possession. Playing simple passes forwards, rather than whacking balls forward and risking losing possession or playing backwards and losing the momentum of an attack.

 

He is a gem, one who has probably won us more points than we give him credit for. The longer he goes along, relatively unnoticed by the top flight teams, the better for us. I also feel he would certainly be a player that would comfortably take a step up to the Premiership.

Yes you get less time on the ball in the championship as players tend to get hassled and harried plus it's more physical than the premier league

[Tielemans63]

Our best player imho.

[Mark_w]

Not a very fair comparison.

 

 

 

United's strikers are shit.

i'll give you that it is more physical, but there is absolutely no way that you get more time on the ball in the premiership, they just move the ball much quicker.

Drinky and James are my unsung heroes this season. Reg and Nugent grab the headlines for the goal scoring, Knocky and my ever-favourite Dyer for the wing chaos. These two just go about it quietly.
