Arriba Los Zorros Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 I'll get slated for this, but I don't care. He can't hold the ball up and wastes our attacks built from the back, leading to players pumping the ball forward, and he's not mobile enough to anything with long balls either. Drop him, play Vardy up-front with Mahrez or Knocky in an advanced supporting role. If Pearson insists on playing Ulloa at least make him stay forward and get Albrighton playing to give him some service, as his only strong suits are heading and finishing. Sorry for the rant but we have unrealised potential among the players and need to make some sacrifices to get it right.
RedSoxUK Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Ulloa actually played pretty well off the ball vs Liverpool. Solid head of the ball, held up respectably well, an absolute perfect flick on for Vardy straight after half-time, a cannonball header from far out towards the end, and a lovely bit of quick feet to keep the ball in and get a goal out of it to put us ahead. His passing looked disgusting though.
Babylon Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 He's frustrating, he has certainly been taking way too many touches the last few games and ending up losing possession.
Guest Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 One of our best 3 players this season. Needs better service.
Number 6 Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Needs to forget the team contribution and stick himself in and around the box: that's where he can hurt teams.
Kitchandro Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 I thought he was good first half. But he stopped jumping for headers part way through the second and missed one of our only decent openings.
Dickov22 Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 One of our best 3 players this season. Needs better service. Agree to an extent but top strikers make chances for themselves. He needs to do better at that certainly
lcfcsnow Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 If you can't run in this league you've got no chance. I think we can add him to the long list of failed target men at this club, don't know why we bother. We had our most successful season without one.
Captain... Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Needs Nugent, Ulloa playing behind Vardy isn't working, Nugent playing behind Ulloa did work. Or play all 3, but I think it is time for Vardy to play as impact sub for a while. Ulloa up top, Nugent doing the donkey work behind and linking up with the midfield.
Manwell Pablo Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Needs Nugent, Ulloa playing behind Vardy isn't working, Nugent playing behind Ulloa did work.

You not seen his shooting in the warm up?
Bert Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 I think there's no middle ground with Ulloa. He's either good or crap.
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Some good touches and passes last night, just takes an absolute age to move the ball on. If he'd pass and move quicker he'd be able to link the midfield and attackers so much better.

Yeah It worked in the division below we currently find ourselves in.
Manwell Pablo Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 On subject unless you want to try Vardy and Nugent there really isn't much choice but to play Ulloa, and I've serious reservations about those two pairing up in this division, new striker needed I think, loan might be the best option, should of spent the 8 million more wisely, or spent a bit more and guaranteed some quality. Yeah It worked in the division below we currently find ourselves in. Think he's referring to the much preferrable results we were getting against Arsenal Everton Man U and Stoke when Nugent and Ulloa were playing and the latter was actually finding the net.

You are correct. Apologies!
DANGEROUS TIGER Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 One of our best 3 players this season. Needs better service. This.
RedSoxUK Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 I thought he was good first half. But he stopped jumping for headers part way through the second and missed one of our only decent openings. Created out of nothing and did 90% of the work to get there. Ulloa played very well in both halves.
Fox92 Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 His work rate, ability to hold up the ball and ability to link play is good and still better than what Wood would be able to do.
jammie82uk Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 You not seen his shooting in the warm up? didnt he have a bruised ankle hence why he wasn't in the squad last night
Bert Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 didnt he have a bruised ankle hence why he wasn't in the squad last night
kingfox Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Vardy leading the line on his own Never heard anything so stupid. Ulloa must play regardless, whether that is in a two or up front on his own, because of the other players we can call upon, both Nugent & Wood are not Premiership standard.
adamlcfcbevo85 Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 Personally I'd start wood with ulloa and bring vardy on around 60 min mark to terror the defensive when there tired
Monsell1976 Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 I think there's no middle ground with Ulloa. He's either good or crap.Think your right bert, early season looked great, now looks weak, and non existent on the pitch.Hope we get the right balls into him, and get his confidence back, because he for one is a confidence player
AyewJoking Posted 3 December 2014 Posted 3 December 2014 We need to reunite Vardy and Nugent. Best strike force since Yorke and Cole.
