    Another typical Leicester racist attack?

    Well, quite clearly I have. If you have two plays like Morgan and Huth playing then obviously your perceptions of what is deemed 'quick' are never going to be on the money.

    No, you haven't. You wouldn't have used Wasilewski as an example of a slow defender if you'd watched us because Huth, Morgan, Upson and Moore are all a lot slower.


    To clarify, i'm not suggesting he's rapid or anything. Just that it would be harsh to call him slow.

    Why don't you start your own poll on it on the Leicester page because nobody here apart from Sterling gives a ****

    Maguire is doing very well and does not look out of place one little bit - overall.

    So now it is the turn of Davies and Maguire to perform @ CB for a while.

    Gotta say he his only weakness appears to be his speed and mobility, he`s decent in the air, seems solid enough in the challenge, his ball retention is good for a big lumbering centre back and he packs a dig on him, unfortunately i concur with Lambo in that playing in the Premier League, the forwards are that much quicker, smarter and sharper that he could quite possibly get torn a new one !, but the lad is young and may learn positional sense to make up for his lack of speed. Wayne Brown during our first promotion year was the steadiest and most imperious centre back in the Championship, but couldn`t make the step up and was torn apart by a Wigan side I believe, in what was his only Premier league appearance for us.

    He did ok up against Swansea and Leicester in the Cup, Leicester especially up against the redhot racist Vardy when he was fresh off the bench too, so i reckon he would step up next season like he has this one

    It's stupid to say he definitley wouldn't make it in the Premier League, partly because of his age, partly because he's played well against two Premier League teams but mostly because he's never played in the top flight before. We know all too well that players can unexpectedly make the step up, case and point Ashbee, Turner, Garcia, Chester, Aluko (in his first season anyway). There's even a case for Fryatt.

    At 22, he's hardly over the hill.

    He coped quite well with Arsenal in the cup.

    Didn't they hve Alexis Sanchez, Santi Cazorla, Mesut Ozil et al that day?

    A lack of pace being an excuse to write him off is just bullshit. You could probably count on one hand the amount of centre halves that are quick.

    If we end up with Pochettino or Villas Boaz as our manager then it might be a problem but otherwise it doesn't matter.

    To an extent I suppose, but by the time he'd arrived at the KC he already had 25 Premier League appearances under his belt so I'm not sure he counted.

    That said, Garcia had also made appearances for West Ham so maybe he doesn't count either.

    I should really have used a comma, but didn't think he was worth the effort. <laugh>
