if you can't be good be lucky, right?
The good
1 - winks is class, top class. so is the goalie.
2 - setup and shape looked good.
3 - we moved the ball from back to front through the middle more times in the first half than all of last season combined because winks took the ball off the central defenders and can pass, something ndidi is incapable of.
4 - mavididi showed flashes of brilliance although he could turn out to be another DG.
5 - doyle and macateer looked assured at this level.
6 - ricardo looked better than he has done in a long time.
7 - kdh scored twice which hopefully will do his confidence good.
8 - looked better when praet came on for ndidi and nacho for vardy.
9 - we looked better the longer the game went on.
the bad
1 - faes and vesty are a calamity waiting to happen.
2 - could've been 3-0 or 4-1 down if kov had any kind of finisher up front.
3 - still can't defend set pieces. mcfadzean was all by himself on the goal line then ran 3 yards forward to head unopposed whilst ndidi just pointed at him instead of marking him.
4 - ndidi being more forward was a plus but he still can't pass.
5 - neither can kdh.
6 - for 60+ mins we literally created nothing in the final third because of 4 and 5, only the widemen gave us any penetration, and even then there was very little of it.
7 - vardy barely touched the ball the whole game.
summation
hard to judge on one game. but.
i like the setup and the style, but we need 3 more players to make it work, 2 mids and one central defender (so we can fack off vesty, even if coady recovers). if praet goes to torino he'll need to be replaced. kdh can score but he overhits through balls by 5 yards most of the time, he needs a partner better than him to take more of the creative load. without a few extra players we won't be in the top 2 come may. on another day we might've got stuffed.
i'll take 3 pts but it was daylight robbery.
