Should have been hooked at half time. Wasn’t any different to plenty of other games he’s played this season. Sadly that isn’t probably even in his bottom 5 performances this season. Still nothing beats how poor he was in the 3-6 vs ManCity. He waddled round the pitch and directly cost us about 4 goals that game.

UniFox21 Posted 10 April 2022 Share Posted 10 April 2022 Everything he does just seems so laboured. His passing is a yard or so off and his positional awareness seems off compared to usual 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's been as bad as some people have made out but it is getting to the point where despite his importance to the team, his performances can no longer allow him a starting place.

If Praet was available I would agree but we don't have anybody else who can do his job. We can carry him just about but he needs to give himself a good slap and get back into gear.

kingkisnorbo Posted 10 April 2022 Share Posted 10 April 2022 Becoming less and less arsed about him leaving every week now. Maybe it’s a good thing, maybe it’s a bad thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it’s a good thing, maybe it’s a bad thing. I think the most annoying factor is that we’ll get such a reduced fee for him. He hasn’t signed a contract which I have absolutely no issues with as he’s left his future in his own hands. To receive around £25m for someone who will almost definitely go and flourish elsewhere grates a little bit. Hey Ho, that’s football I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all due respect I don't see how people can say this. He will have been here three and a half years, played some brilliant football at times and scored our only ever FA Cup winning goal. Of course it will be painful (in football fan terms) to see him another shirt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it was a 10 for Kante and currently would be a similar score for Vardy and Fofana. Tielemans for me too, in his current contract and form situation would only peak at about a 2 I'm afraid. Sign soon at a reasonable price or sod off quickly 😁. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hejammy Posted 11 April 2022 Share Posted 11 April 2022 To be honest in recent games, his endeavour and aggression outside of possession and with possession is just not there. It's almost like playing with 10 men at times. Not sure if it's his head or he's just played too many games but I feel he needs some time out of the team at the moment. Question is do we change formation or do a straight swap? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxinsocks Posted 11 April 2022 Share Posted 11 April 2022 I am not sure youri can play at a top 6 club or Madrid/barca. Better to be a big fish in small pond... ask drinky. However, it's all about what his agent thinks he can achieve. If the club has ambition it should make him an eye watering offer for a 5 year contract. If he insiste on going we should hold out for 50mil... or play him. His agent knows he is prob worth 80mil and is hoping to have most of that as a signing on fee. We need to be clear and tough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyTennis? Posted 11 April 2022 Share Posted 11 April 2022 He's been here long enough now that he has had runs of form that have been good (most of the time, amazingly), bad (maybe during the few months after he signed) and average (not very often, but he's probably fallen into one of these recently, for whatever reason). Like all players. He remains a very impressive and authoritative presence on the pitch, but it would be less painful if he did decide to go this year because we have seen his his strengths and weaknesses this season - whereas, at the end of last season, he had been so consistently stellar that it would be hard to imagine achieving anything without him. Personally, I really want him to stay, and I still think he should be captain, or deputy, or whatever. He's constantly organising on the pitch. (Also, I think KDH is a slightly different kind of player, and Soumare is... not there yet... to put it politely.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I agree with your first part, a big fish in a little pond is only worthwhile if it performs consistently like a big fish. I really don't think he's worth an eye watering contract here, in fact he's been mediocre for quite a long while now and I don't get the impression that it's just fatigue either. He wouldn't get a sniff at Man City or Liverpool and would have to drastically improve for Madrid or Barcelona. Serie A may suit him best but they're unlikely to pay up. If we can't get rid in the summer, unless he starts to turn some better performances in, he needs to rot on the bench whilst we rebuild without him. There's no room for sentiment, it matters not that he was once able to make the occasional defence splitting pass or scored the cup final goal, it's about the here and now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
