Leicester City (A) Build up/Match thread 8/11/20

[Jinky]

Traore for Podence, please.

Podence has been abysmal.

 

[carl0s]

He’s gone....

Yes. I know. And Raul has not looked the same since.

He doesn't appear to have the same link up with Podence/Neto - which was my point.

He drops deep to get the ball as he always has done and there's nobody forward/close to him to help out.

 

[Carrotdude]

Leicester are a very good team, no denying that. It’s just frustrating that we have been so poor with the ball when we are capable of so much more.
They are pressing us very well which is something we struggle with.

Fofana is very good btw.

Not sure that's fair. Hasn't happened today but they've defended him very well. In previous games they have combined very well

 

[Premier Quality]

And we miff up a break - our communication there was awdul

 

[Alan]

Fofana has been brilliant for them.

 

[YoungWolf]

That was a fantastic move.

 

[YoungWolf]

Fofana has been brilliant for them.

Agreed

 

[YoungWolf]

Another good break. Just need to play a little bit higher and win the ball higher to allow us to commit more bodies quicker

 

[Premier Quality]

Traore for Podence, please.

Podence has been abysmal.

I’d probably bring silva on for Neto too, get someone in the box occasionally

 

[YoungWolf]

The way we are currently using Podence I was just going to say Silva might be a better bet, PQ.

 

[prawnking]

Starting to attack with a little more purpose

 

[Alan]

Just seems like our front three get tackled off the ball so easily on days like today.

 

[Freddeno]

come on Adama

 

[YoungWolf]

Here's Adama. Need a big impact!

 

[prawnking]

We have some tricky players but rarely seem to get the fouls and penalties teams with comparable players get

 

[Carrotdude]

Ai-Nouri has had a bit of a nightmare today after such a good debut

 

[Jinky]

I thought Ait-Nouri was supposed to be one of the best young crossers of a ball in Europe?

 

[Dire Wolf]

It's been a tough day for RAN.

 

[prawnking]

Young players will have ups and down.

With the amount of youngsters we've signed this season, we need to be patient with them
