I never understood why we had to splash out this much cash on a keeper anyway when there are always tons of decent keepers available in the cheap. Unlike for most other positions keepers usually don’t appreciate that much in value as there are always more great keepers as spots in tops clubs. We could have easily gotten Gulacsi or Leno or some other more than solid dude for a third of that money. Heck now I would have even taken Butland over Kepa
-
Good result. albeit again, Watford should have won. But the insight I draw from this match is that Chilwell is not good enough to justify that price tag. His hype is built on moments of genuis like that awesome goal andl ike Alonso's, it will be forgotten how suspect he looked all game and people will keep banging on about how good he is. But he was suspect defensively all game. Yes, Sarr is an absolute speed merchant but a really quality defender know how to deal with it like Söyüncü did when he simply nicked the ball from him before he could get in his stride. I dont want to have another LB who gets beaten for pace that easily.
-
not really. they were the better team throughout the game. nvm i thought you were talking about the equaliser.
-
and a late equaliser what a goal again
-
Maybe that is the difference. Leicester getting battered all day. Chilwell getting skinned time and time again by Sarr and yet scores an incredible winner. Insane. Maybe he is just like Alonso after all
-
What an excuse of a footballer Doucoure is. Watford are wasting chances right left and centre. Leicester are somehow gonna clinch this
-
Sarr absolutely burned Chilwell for pace there. Otherwise he has looked solid but he really should not be eaten that easily especially if his pace his one of his strengths.
-
The exact same thing Söyüncü did there on Sarr got Pogba a penalty yesterday. Double standards whereever you look
-
it's a marvel how Leicester with such an average team are sitting comfortably 3rd in the league. We have a far superior squad and yet they have been so much more consistent. really have to ask ourself that question. Rodgers has developed greatly as a coach. His back 4 is extremely well organised. And Vardy is still looking so sharp for his age. Not playing top level football for some time really elongates your career it seems. His face looks 40 but his legs no older than 29.

Its a good result. Obviously Utd were never gonna lose with the ref, VAR and the FA backing them. But 1-1 does not really help any of the two teams and Spurs are only 6 points off so you never know. Could have been much worse. And as long as Utd dont score from open play, they have that monkey on their back again. Never seen a team awarded so many soft penalties. You can bet you ass on us not getting such an easy pen as Utd today. Corrupted refs ruining the game, Corona or not We obviously need a win vs Villa to widen the gap.
-
I agree. Tbh if RLC comes back as good as he used to be last season with his halved calf not hindering his progress then we don’t really need Havertz As midfielder. But we can not really take that chance. Especially given we are quite short at forward options, Havertz could well play any of those including leading the line and filling ina winger when Puli and CHO Cho inevitably pick up injuries.
-
Havertz is obviously a pipe dream. But there are tons of good defenders available for discount prices. If there is one window to complete the team it’s this.
-
Bullet dodged. How tiny is Adl btw
-
So its good that they failed today. But I doubt they will throw it away. It would require Mönchengladbach to win two and RB to collect just one point from the remaining 2 matches
-
Will he be cheaper or more expensive if they miss out tho?
-
I meant our cbs. At 24,25 you are still somewhat young for a cb. I have seen many only becoming top class in their late 20ies.
-
You can see why Lamps was not gonna put up with this shit. Our other defenders are error prone too but at least they are still young and can iron it out with time. David Luiz‘ errors have always been increasing with age
-
Agent David Luiz still going strong
-
The FA obviously don’t want a small team like the Blades in Europe.
-
Teams are looking rusty af. I hope we are fitter than all players except Leno on right now. With Kepa would already have been 2-0
-
I don’t think Havertz and CB are mutually exclusive but tbf I could. It care less if we sign Havertz. Maybe bc I am 99% it won’t happen but I agree, GK and CB are our biggest weaknesses. So I am somewhat irritated by the lack of noise in that department. Our Defence is probably the one thing Lamps Grasp of a he situation has been behind My expectations. It is clear we need more quality there if we want to maintain his very offensive style. And there are plenty even left footed cbs available for decent prices. Most are as usual on your radar already but I watched some Frankfurt games lately and Ndicka has developed nicely. He is a leftie, very quick, tall, very mobile, good reading of the game. Not the best on the ball but still young. Reminds me of young Vvd. Would IMO probably be our best CB after a season of acclimatization.
-
More like Robinho. Agüero never was actually this close. Roman got pissed because the agent demanded such a huge fee. In general I am against giving in to these scumbags but in this case we should obviously have made an exception. Anyway intermediary’s provisions Should be regulated like in any other business. But footy is even more corrupted than real estate so not gonna happen. Also, I am glad to occasionally stop by and reassure everyone that this deal is as good as done. The announcement will probably still take some time but on the business end this is settled.
-
Dubravka is a Great Shot stopper and I have been a fan for ages but he is terrible with his feet. just look at those saves tho. Some are absolutely ridiculous. Saving from point blank range. Probably the best reflexes in the league. Imagine Kepa with Such a shit Defence in front of him Guaita would be an awesome back up.
-
That’s like a 70cm vertical and not even proper jumping technique.
-
Newest rumors have it that he is reiterating his desire to move to Real with them Preparing a 2nd bid. I am guess there could be sth in it as his preference for Real is probably the reason he has not yet agreed a pre contract with Bayern. Real is probably the best solution for all period there anyway. Leverkusen can sell him at peak value despite Corona, Kai gets his wish and Real revamp their shit squad. La Liga will also suit him more given how often he is fouled
