Fair enough if you’ve re watched and still feel the same 

 

I don’t think any of our players were up to much in the first half - so it was a pretty low bar 

I have this depressing habit where I only watch back games where something has gone wrong. I only got to 30 or 35 minutes of yesterday's, mind, before something went wrong. Last year I had a package where you could simply rewatch whole matches, but this year I have to do something clever which I've somehow buggered up...

 

Anyway, I thought McAteer looked bright though. I was specifically watching to see whether Hull were quickly switching the ball wide when they picked up possession, and it seems we kept getting caught out by that a bit.

Presumably into the right back area - that’s going to be where the space is on transition

Very, very promising.

 

Another goal, forced the error for the Mavididi goal with his defending. Work rate is very good, and probably the thing I was most impressed with tonight.

 

Excited to watch him develop even further.

[Will1981]

He reminds me of a younger Albrighton with his work rate and attitude.

[Lambert09]

very composed goal. Really showing that he deserves his chance

[Bryn]

He’s got a future this boy.

 

His attitude seems bang on and you can absolutely make a career of that from the position he’s in now. Look at your Milners, Hendersons, Nevilles, even someone like Beckham post-‘98. 
 

Took his goal brilliantly and looks like he belonged. Faded after the hour mark, maybe needs to work on his stamina and how he uses his energy, but there’s a lot to like.

[foxfanazer]

Really like this kid. Obviously he ain't gonna be perfect but he's got something about him

[LinekersLugs]

He is committed to making a home here, he wants to set roots and make waves, here 

[joeybside]

Outstanding run into a very good position for his goal. Great vision and awareness 

[brookfox]

Fair play to him. On paper with the new signings he's probably third choice RW. But he's got the shirt and putting in the sort of performances which will make it difficult for the manager to take it off him. Great example of what healthy squad competition can do.

[Aleksz]

So likeable.

 

Hard to work out how high his potential ceiling is because he is so raw… but the directness and work rate will take him far.

[st albans fox]

Interesting that today like the last game showed him fading in the second period compared to the first. 
 

That’s something that does happen with young players - hopefully he gets the chance to push on and change that 

[Lesta2014]

Work rate is very good, doesn’t overly complicate the game and appears to have a footballing brain. Will get better under maresca! Hopefully albrighton is training hard and mentoring the young wingers we currently have!

I think it does when they are giving everything to impress and not managing their game as much as experienced players do. He did alright at Rotherham too. 

[Freeman's Wharfer]

When he loses the ball, he sprints to try and recover it. Great attitude.

[cityfanlee23]

He looks like a really raw talent, a rough diamond that needs to be shaped. Does the basics but is susceptible to mistakes that I think will be ironed out with experience. Lot of potential there if he continues to be given chances.

[filbertway]

Doesn't look anywhere near a championship footballer to me. His footballing brain seems to be behind. He's doing a capable job, but really can't see him making it at championship level long term.

 

Once Fatawu and Akgun are integrated I'd be shocked if we saw much of Kasey.

 

Fair play to the lad for stepping up though, he's not shyed away from the challenge and bagged himself 3 goals so far. It's good to have that option in the squad.

[lgfualol]

Gets into great positions and top work rate. Should keep starting.

3 goals in 4 games 

not even full 90s

on that kinda form he isn’t going to be shifted easily

I strangely agree with this, or I can see where you’re coming from.

sorry but this , this is just so wrong.

its obvious why Enzo likes Kasey, he is a decent technical player at championship label, (not great) but he works hard, he plays a team role always working back, does obvious things well, runs into the box, but also running back to cover

may not ever be a prem player, but clearly able to play at this level in my opinion

Its one of them that, at the minute, he's got the bosses approval, playing regularly in a team that's doing well isn't it.

 

I worry what happens when he becomes a bit part player. He is composed and seems to make the right decisions and intelligent runs.. so hopefully if he keeps taking his chances when he's a sub then he'll make it

I understand this, but I think a lot of his misgivings can be forgiven based on his age and amount of senior games he’s played. I think there’s much more progression. 
 

Let’s not kid ourselves he’s not going to be an England player but he’s showing enough to be a solid professional.

 

[iancognito]

His workrate is exceptional and that's probably where he nudges himself ahead of Wanya and others. He's reponded to the other wingers coming in and upped his game. His goal is about two things - Vardy's run to create space and his determination to sprint 20 yards into the box to get in on goal. If Stephy is a bit more unselfish he might even have had a second goal too. He probably doesn't have the same tricks and step overs that others have but as Albrighton's demonstrated over the years, attitude and workrate will get you further than a showboat.

[Staff]

Pissed myself when he went to chest a ball down and it hit him square in the face
