Yeah I couldn't quite understand not getting off our star players earlier. Leicester were cooked even at 3 nil. But certainly at 4, Gordon and Isak should have been hooked straight away to protect them.

 

Was even calling for Joelinton to be rested as he's played through injury and was on 1 booking away from a ban and low and behold he went and got booked in a silly way. 

 

No offense to Murphy but he can play the full 90 for me, stay on and try and get your hat trick. But he's not as valuable as Isak or Gordon so should have stayed on.

His rawness will be his main attribute I think, teams won't know what he's going to do at any point. If he can sharpen up his decision making, he'll be a real asset. He's kind of in the Obafemi Martins mould of rawness, where it will never fully disappear.

I would loan him out in January, even if it meant that we had to loan a striker in for the rest of the season as cover.

 

Bristol City would be the ideal move for him, as they play good football but they don’t have anyone up top to pick out of any real quality, so it would be a good opportunity for him to get some goals and build confidence.

 

If he can’t do it there in the Championship then his chances of ever making it here are slim.

Oba got 17 goals first season here. He wasn’t raw, he was just insane.

If we had another striker he’d definitely be going out on loan. 4 sub appearances by mid December isn’t good for him, or us.

He didn't look like he was taking up good positions IMO. Needs more minutes.


It felt like Leicester had went from trying to actually attack to just making sure it didn’t end up a cricket score. Got the ball few times but there seemed to be three or four players on him straight away

I loved Oba :lol: 

 

Deciding what foot to use during the run up for a pen FFS. Like you say, insane.

Yeah Leicester dropped really deep and we were happy just to play keep ball by then. Not really a great time for him to come on.

He had already played near 100 games I'm senior football, his talent was raw  in the respect that it wasn't something that was coached, and that never changed throughout his whole career.
