Pretty Boy Lee wrote:Sorry to be negative but I thought he was utter gash today. Constantly gets himself into battles cos he’s too slow to move the ball, poor technique, controlling balls into the crowd, less assured than Zinchencko or Tosin for my money. Physically he’s ok, but he offers almost no football brain.
There was s lot wrong tonight, but the whole thing can be looked st as a rest for the first team and excellent experience for the youngsters.
You are correct however, that one of the problems was that we hadn’t got anyone like Stones to carry the ball out when space is presented in front.
Yaya wasn’t available for a pass but Mangala and also Tosin to a lesser extent we’re incapable of taking it forward and picking a decisive ball out.
It went backwards far too often.
But listen, we won and should have done in 98 minutes against a very strong Leicester team on the end.
Actually scratch that. I thought Leicester were shite.
