Fear they will win quite easily though as we're not playing very well at all despite the 6 points on the board. Yeah, but really they’d win quite easily most times even if we were playing well. Lose this, win the next two (yeah, easier said than done I know) and we’d have two points a game, and I’d take that over the season! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxtonfox Posted 11 September 2021 Share Posted 11 September 2021 Maddison , no Nacho or Daka in the starting line up. Launching long ball to Vardy will not work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soyuncu was good against Man C and Wolves, if it was a run of 5-8 games I'd say definitely. If you drop everyone after a couple of bad games you end up with a ever changing team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volpeazzurro Posted 11 September 2021 Share Posted 11 September 2021 Not a bad starting line-up though I'd have possibly gone for Soumare over Maddison in fairness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farrington fox Posted 11 September 2021 Share Posted 11 September 2021 I look at that team and I just don’t get it. Unless Ricky isn’t 100% why leave him out. He’s been our best player. Madders needs to up his effort today as well. He really hasn’t impressed so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenom Posted 11 September 2021 Share Posted 11 September 2021 This could turn really bad if our CBS and Maddison keep playing the same way they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, although not a Maddison knocker, I do agree that in three starts thus far, he's looked more of a hinderence than an asset and not worthy of a start.

Personally think it gives everyone an incentive to train hard and keep complacency at bay.. we have a guy who has been borderline motm last couple of games and he gets tossed aside whilst the error strewn player keeps his place. What sort of message does that send out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine the thinking is if Bertrand attacks down the left then Timmy tucks in as RCB and vice versa to ensure we always have a 3 incase of a quick turnover and break, Ricardo and Thomas can’t / don’t cover those positions.
