Fantail Breeze Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 1 hour ago, HaydnNUFC said: Choudhury is just an ever so slightly more mobile version of Hayden isn't he? Think both he and Willock would compliment each other well. Signing only Choudhury though and not Willock is pointless. He’s nowhere near as good as Hayden like. He’s also not mobile at all. A combination of Shelvey and Cattermole. Thick as mince, lazy as fuck and makes horrible tackles to show how he ‘gets stuck in’. Offers nothing from a footballing point of view. A signing like this would show we have zero ambition though and would be a good enough reason to not watch next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abra Dubravka Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) Lads need their heads shaking if they are happy with us signing Hamza Choudhury. He’s a living example of why Leicester have gone from League 1 to overtaking us over night. Last few years they’ve just brought better midfielders, and kept him as back up. Lads been in first team for years now, he’s 23. Never shown any signs of making it at Leicester, why would we want anything to do with him? Even Leicester fans think he’s a bunch of toss. I’m sure if you go back 12 months you can find something said to the exact replica regarding us signing Hendrick.

Holmesy Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) Why do we seem to be fixated on Choudhary as if he's the next Messi. If the press are to be believed, we've been chasing him since last summer and from what i've seen of him, he's shite. What's the obsession?!

Sima Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Choudhary isn't better than Hayden imo. Just another bog-standard shite midfielder, similar to Craig Gardiner & Seb Larsson who Bruce signed when he was at the mackems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Disagree on Choudhury he’s looked a good player whenever I’ve seen him. When he came on during the Cup Final, he just shut down any space and passing lanes that Chelsea were trying to find. That sort of brain will be important next season if we’re going to be using Willock as our forward thinking CM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your promise can only fade if you play regularly and you play badly. Bruce convinced Matty to sign a new contract and then benched him for the whole season. Sean on the other hand showed loads of promise under Rafa, has played loads this season and looked totally shit - that's promise fading Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That anchor position in midfield is a real weakness. The fact that he can't get starts at Leicester doesn't worry me too much. They're a lot better than us, basically.

Holding players need to have mobility as well these days, the days of them parking in front of the back four are long gone. Apart from us using Shelvey that way at the moment. Both central midfielders need to be able to press effectively, we are really missing that as our midfielders are all lumbering donkeys who miss tackles by about 5mins.
