Skeletor Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I love players who score goals. We got so conditioned to only being allowed to have one or two at a time. Fill our team with goal scorers just like the Keegan days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes running onto Tonali and Bruno’s through balls, being as direct as he is, both footed, yep can see it. Shame others can’t see it. They will, once the season starts.

gazza ladra Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Really wanted Diaby based on nothing more than his reputation and some YouTube scouting. The vids of Barnes more impressive; looks like what we need. Convinced that the club knows what it's doing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 If we continue last season's tactic of right side build up to then quickly switch to LW then that really suits Barnes, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conjo Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) Just had a browse through the Barnes thread on foxestalk. The critique of him being wasteful with the ball and lazy isn't something recent due to their poor season From 2019 - February 2021 I haven't seen a single negative word in his thread from what I browsed through. In Feb 21 they were shitting themselves that they'll lose him to Liverpool in the summer. He got injured end of feb 2021 with a knee injury and was out for rest of the season. Slow start to the 2021-22 season so people a bit divided as he's had some underwhelming performances but coming off a long injury. By October 2021 not a single positive word from anyone (kindest posts saying he's out of form) but most criticizing him for being wasteful with the ball and unable to get past players. This lasts until mid-January 2022 where he seems to have done fairly well (lost of "well he's the best option we have" posts). One poster summing him up as "Overrated but falls into that perfect Leicester City player category because he can be useful sometimes." This mood seems to continue through to March 2022 when he's back to being a donkey, lazy, head down player who only does well when the team overall is doing well. Pre-season 2022 most posts people are hoping some rest and a good pre-season can bring back the old Barnes. From there until now it seems like the forum is split between him being a shit player and people posting his g+a stats so he can't be bad. A bit like on here.

HaydnNUFC Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Messaged one of my Leicester mates about him; "You not slightly disappointed? Thought you'd go for better. He's very good at 1-2’s, mainly creates opportunities in that way as he doesn't often take on his man. If Howe can improve on that aspect of his game I can see him being a beast for you. However if he’s competing with Saint Maximin and Gordon on the LW I’m not too sure why you're signing him, unless one of them is being sold/loaned out" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
