Harvey Barnes

[David Edgar]

Uncharacteristically shite in the box. But put a shift in and linked up well. 

 

No worse than the other two who played up front. 

[Smal]

was just waiting for him to make the right decision but he didn’t, very unlike him. Was still significantly more effective than Gordon.

[Erikse]

Leicester fans kept saying he was the type of player that you could tell would have a relly good/bad game within the first 30 min of the game. This was one of those. A couple of poor decisions in the first half, and he never recovered from there on.

He’s scoring away at Arsenal next week.

Did a reverse Harvey Barnes, good at everything else apart from the stuff in the final 3rd. Frustrating final 3rd display all round from us today tbf

[Fak]

Had an off day, it happens. He was still lively and caused them problems up until his end product. Would keep the same XI next week unless Trippier is back. 

 

Just a shame his off day came at such a crucial time of the season. No damage done in the end though.

Probably the fact he constantly fucked up his shot, touch, pass or cross every time he got in and around the box  

He done a lot of good things aswell was always involved.

The game in the final bit was exactly the sort of game that Barnes isn't good at. Defensive, niggly, aggressive. Not attributes he really excels in. 

 

Thought he was good before that, I would probably have brought on Osula for him towards the end.

Thought he was pretty poor

[shorty]

Obviously not his best game but wasn't nice to hear groans and worse from some near me. He took a bad knock early doors - people willing to give isak the benefit of the doubt when he's carrying a knock - think that should apply for Harvey too.

His lack of pace meant we didn't really have much option on the counter on his side. I thought Gordon should have stayed on instead for the second half tbh, he looked lively.

Totally agree also his lack of back tracking was causing us problems in the second half. Thought he was poor today and his touch was totally off.

Had a poor game in all honesty, but kept getting himself into good positions, which is the main thing.  Compare that to Neto/Madueke for them, who never looked threatening at all.

Yeah are rare off day for him where nothing worked - can happen sometimes - put it to one side and move onto Arsenal - he’s had a good season
