Shukes Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Doucoure. Took over in that second half after playing second fiddle to Allan. Allan was great again while on. Iwobi is slowly getting to be a real danger. And a special mention for Gomes for coming on and making a solid impression.

dunlopp9987 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 If Doucoure can play like that more consistently, it will soften the blow of Allan's injury. Some crucial tackles, did a good job of getting forward when needed, and was tirelessly running through the 90th minute. Brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Only watched the second half but went with Doucoure. He did really well. Thought Gomes did well too. Whole back four solid great result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got bounced off the ball in our penalty area and they fluffed their lines. Found himself on the ball more so it wasn't a complete disaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 I was thinking Allan all 1st half then feared for the worst when he went off but Doucoure stepped up and, as said above, gave his best showing in an EFC shirt. Carlo, once again, spot on. Such a satisfying victory! Wiggytop, MikeO and Romey 1878 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Thought Allan was bossing the midfield and was excellent until he had to go off.I feared the worse at that point but thought Decoure really stepped up to the plate after that so gets my nod Iwobi also had a very good game and I thought Siggy was decent again Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibdane Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 Good showing the last couple of matches. We're looking a lot more cohesive. Hopefully Allan is okay and we get James back soon. Went with Doucoure, but shout out to Iwobit for stepping up lately. He's looking closer to the price we bought him for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiggytop Posted December 16, 2020 Report Share Posted December 16, 2020 I’ve gone out on a limb as the team once again played as a unit and voted for Olsen. I think his calming presence helped the back four in being solid, something I don’t think Jordan does. Allan was bossing the game before coming off, and Doucoure stepped up and played the sort of game I’ve been expecting him to play, Iwobi ..... who would have thought he would be turning out performances like the last couple of weeks earlier in the season. Carlo brilliantly managed the game. Palfy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete0 Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Thought we looked the better team until we scored. After that it was an absolute bore to watch. Never in much danger but never in much control. Felt like a friendly. That said thought Iwobi stood out. Time and time again he got us attacking when we looked like it was gonna go the other way. Reminds me of Barkley, great under pressure but a bit plop when given time to think. Hopefully Ancelotti and the coaches can help work on his decision makin.

Btay Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 2 hours ago, duncanmckenzieismagic said: An absolute power house. He’s been warming up to this kind of performance the last few weeks. A lot of what he does goes unnoticed - breaks up play and offers an extra body in the box. He can be a bit rough on the ball at times but can never question his effort. Great game from him! Iwobi - looking dangerous, I really hope Caro keeps this pace out wide tactic over the next few weeks. I hope Iwobi is up for a big performance against arsenal.

Cornish Steve Posted December 17, 2020 Report Share Posted December 17, 2020 Doucoure was very assured, but I'm going to go out on a limb and choose someone unexpected: Olsen. Very assured, vocal to his defence, and clean sheet against a top team. Wiggytop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made 3-4 saves including Vardys header, nothing world class but looked and acted solid, helping to give confidence to his back 4.

Most of not all have commented each game on Pickfords wobbles in one way or another. They had 2 shots on target so not 3 or 4 saves . The Vardy save was right at him. If Vardy had put it anywhere else it was a goal (not that that would make it an error because no goalkeeper would have saved it). pete0, Zoo 2.0 and Palfy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
