FoxyLeon Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 I'd want to see him play for a competent manager, in a competent system in his correct position.....Before passing judgement. Looks to have very good attributes, that Rodgers isn't able to use. Maddison's decline..... Ndidi's decline..... Tielemans's inconsistency.... Now Soumare being questioned.... When do we realise it's Brendan, and not the players? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1 Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 Worst game for us. Just seems sort of pace, not sure whether he's slow or just carrying abit too much weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalis Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 (edited) Essentially had 3 decent games for us, one of which was a pre season friendly and the other was a glorified pre season friendly. As I said in the matchday thread, if he was just poor against the better teams then I could take that but he's not even 'good against fodder' consistently yet. Hope he's just having a slow start to his Leicester career rather than this being his norm. Edited 20 November 2021 by Nalis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityfanlee23 Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 Looks like a really good player is in there somewhere, was obviously a quality player last season, I'm reserving judgement on him, moving country can be different for everyone, especially when you're moving to a club that is as inconsistent as us at present. I hope he can find his way here as we potentially have an Ndidi replacement in him if he can find his form, but the way LCFC are playing I won't be calling for him to be dropped or anything just yet, he needs game time. I can't really think of any players who have covered themselves in glory this season or stood out, so I can't expect it from BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 He's the sort of central midfielder I don't naturally appreciate so when you see him serve up muck like that today then it makes me very very angry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Lcfc Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 I’m starting to get a bit concerned about this signing. I’ve seen a bit which has encouraged me but his failure to track both Moses against Spartak Moscow and Kante today is inexcusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I dont think he's mediocre, he's playing as bad as everyone else is currently. I dont think our form is down to Soumare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Away Move Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 6 minutes ago, Tanya said: Please explain. He has a physical presence we’ve been lacking for season upon season. He rides challenges and shields well. He plays incisive balls and he can drive from midfield. He’s also skilful and good with the ball in tight spaces. Today I would have bollocked him for letting Kanté go, but he’s a fine player. Our problems are not because of him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 Seems unable to pass forward, too happy to keep it simple with a back pass. There was a great bit of play second half when he did a stepover but soon as he needed to release the ball he’s found wanting. A back five and two defensive midfielders is no use against anyone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastAnglianFox Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 (edited) Does nothing on the ball then jogs around with his shoulders slumped when we don't have it. Sick of being called out for the week after week I mention it, but it will hit home soon, his attitude stinks. At least Mendy/Choudry put themselves about and are yet smaller physically than that dosser Edited 20 November 2021 by EastAnglianFox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DennisNedry Posted 20 November 2021 Share Posted 20 November 2021 He's inconsistent to put it lightly. Haven't seen anything to suggest he's not good enough to be starting regularly if we want to try and be a top 6 side again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
