I definitely think we should play players in their natural positions... or at the very least don't stick someone where they have no aptitude to play. N'didi is a defensive mid. He's not a number 8.Two goals from a youth player, a win, top
of the league. We killed the game dead once we scored too.
That said, first 30 minutes of the second half was the worst we’ve played this season. The goal we conceded was unacceptable really.
I think it’s time to start Casadei.
There won't be knives.Knives put back away for another week…
Enzo has a style of play and clearly he’s asked for more players to fit into it. If it doesn’t work in the end then at least he will have gone out on his own terms.
However, 4 from 4 suggests there is something in it, so it’s up to the board to get on back him!
The only problem I had with Vestergaard today is that he is something like 6ft 4 and for their goal he didn't leave the ground to challenge for the ball.Vardy was exceptional when he came on. His running and movement was causing them problem after problem.
I'm still not seeing the massive problem some folk have with Vestergaard or Faes. Both were fine today for the most part. The goal was a soft one to concede but it starts from us pissing away possession and then not working hard or smart enough to try and get it back.
The real issue today was Ndidi who was ****ing dreadful along with KDH who just seemed to make bad decision after bad decision. Luckily, Winks is a class act and was able to play pretty much on his own on midfield.
McAteer had another good game. I fancied him over Marcal as I think he offers more creativity and I still think this after today.
Other than 20 minutes of absolute rubbish at the start of the second half, we pretty much controlled the game.
The only problem I had with Vestergaard today is that he is something like 6ft 4 and for their goal he didn't leave the ground to challenge for the ball.
I'd need to see it again to be honest but my first instinct was that he just wouldn't have got anywhere near it regardless. I'll have another look.The only problem I had with Vestergaard today is that he is something like 6ft 4 and for their goal he didn't leave the ground to challenge for the ball.
That is also possible. I missed the replay of it. It was very static for sure.I'd need to see it again to be honest but my first instinct was that he just wouldn't have got anywhere near it regardless. I'll have another look.
