Foxymcoxy Posted 30 April 2015 Share Posted 30 April 2015 Couldn't he just have flipped it on. He wasn't past the goal post. Just watched it back for the first time, basically he could have scored if he'd connected first time, but he saw it late and couldn't reasonably be expected to do that imo. After his first touch hes way outside the post and the pass is the best option. Edit) Maybe he should have scored first time to be fair, but it wouldn't have been easy to react to the ball going past Ulloa and Cahill the way it did.

Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 30 April 2015 Share Posted 30 April 2015 Shame we got the injuries early on because he was gone part way through the second half and obviously under normal circumstances would of come off, but wioth Vardy carrying a knock we couldn't risk him for the 90 minutes so he had to take priority. Can't blame him for that, still gave everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFox Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 absolute genius for our second. stands offside, then blocks their defender's attempt to track morgan/ulloa by just standin still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 just look at the first time control from Steptoe's cross field pass. Albrighton should have scored really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes_rule1978 Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 Best player I have seen in a city shirt for a long time... would be hard to choose between Izzet and Cambiasso. He is truly world class he could be doing it in the champions league for a top club still, magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dedlock Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 His role in both boxes is immense.When defending corners he is on the line directing. In the opposition box he is so creative off the ball,making runs to divert defenders.The second goal today EC's run took the defender away from Wes. Wes may wear the captains armband but recently Esteban has been skipper on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urmston MUFC Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 Watched your game today and not for the first time this season I was captivated by this magnificent bastard. I'm not given to going on opposition forums and I couldn't care less whether you stay up or not but what a quality signing and I just wanted to join in the praise for him. Could play in any league at any level, could figure in any league team of the year IMO and just a joy to watch. Right that's me. Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DennisNedry Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 Had a quiet game today by his standards, not to say he didn't have a few special moments. Expected him to be a little off the pace playing 2 games in a week at 34 to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree, his leadership and what he does off the ball is second to none... truly opens things up for us, his work rate in both boxes is truly special... and on the ball we have had no better player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he wasn't at the top of his game today. 3 games in a week was a lot and luckily he is good enough to do less moving and still be influential because he's a genius.

Col city fan Posted 2 May 2015 Share Posted 2 May 2015 Again, he was just ok today. He did what he does nicely but he didn't turn any heads particularly. Others really were superb today. Especially Vardy and Schlupp. I hope Cambi has a cracking game against Sunderland. That is now such a big fixture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_LCFC Posted 3 May 2015 Share Posted 3 May 2015 Would love a decent interview with cambiasso. He seems to care so much. I wonder how he rates Leicester City as a club and how he is enjoying it here. He certainly appears to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davieG Posted 4 May 2015 Share Posted 4 May 2015 Full Of Admiration For Leicester City’s Esteban Cambiasso TOPICS:Esteban CambiassoLeicester City MAY 4, 2015 When Esteban Cambiasso moved to this country a year ago, a lot of people thought the same thing: here was a formerly great player seeking one last big contract before hanging up his boots for good. That wasn’t unreasonable, either, because a player with the Argentine’s CV joining a club of Leicester City’s standing was an unlikely move. We’ve seen this before and newly-promoted sides have, in the past, been cheated out of their newly-acquired affluence by the false-promise of names and reputations. Cambiasso, however, has been a credit to his profession. With him, it isn’t his literal contribution which has been impressive – although at times it very much has been – but his attitude. Watch his body-language during Leicester’s matches and watch his reaction when they score goals. He has won everything worth winning in European football and he has played with some of the finest players of this generation, but his commitment to Nigel Pearson’s side this season has been absolutely total. Even when Leicester looked certain to be relegated, he was still encouraging the players around him and there was never even the slightest hint that he’d emotionally checked-out. At times, he’s actually looked like a Leicester fan on the pitch and, while recognition for this recent renaissance should be shared evenly throughout the squad, Cambiasso has seemed like the emotional centre of everything that has happened at the King Power this year. How can you not admire that? He’s played in Champions League finals and World Cups, yet he carries himself like a journeyman who has spent his entire career waiting to get to the Premier League and who is now willing to sacrifice everything to stay there. Physically, he may not quite be the monster that he once was, but, my goodness, what a professional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sylofox Posted 5 May 2015 Share Posted 5 May 2015 Talk Sport today not sure who was talking. He shepards the players points out where men are that need picking up and marshals the whole show. Talks to the ref makes points and comments to the ref no shouting. On top of all that plays a great game he must be a pleasure to work with and an overall help to players and the team. Why is he not captain. Not word for word but prety much what was said. Really is a must keep for us next season then a player/coach roll. And even succeed NP in a few years. I dare say even nige has learnt a lot from him. Would bet some of our training has changed this season due to him. Nige seems to have respect for him.

shailen Posted 5 May 2015 Share Posted 5 May 2015 I've probably said this a hundred times, but why did Inter let him go if he was still performing at the highest levels and also how did we sign him. I don't think we overrate him one bit here, he has performed at a far superior level than I certainly expected this season, and has been relatively consistent. I hope we get another season out of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says he is the best newcomer this season just a shame he is so old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
