Why select him in front of Ashford & Davies ????

Certainly haven’t seen anything that the Leicester fans were raving about. Another player who has to beat a defender then come back for another go, then loses it. He’s certainly no better than Ashford.

Fantastic technically.

Like majority of the squad though he seems to lack an end product.

There were a few times last night where I thought he needed to get the ball into the box, then realised there wasn't anyone in there to cross to.

Great question.

He runs around with the ball at his feet running round in circles frantically staring at the floor, then loses it.

Or anyone within twenty yards for him to pass to. Honestly the more time passes, the more I get annoyed about the way we were setup last night, and the subs amazingly managed to make things worse.

Re: Alves ???

In my opinion, he's better than both of them. Not a great game for him last night admittedly. Most times he had the ball, there were two or three Luton players around him mind and nobody in the box.

There's that too.

Awful all season, combination of everyone either wanting to be on the edge of the box or just too slow to react and get into positions to score.

He reminds of one of those pull cord toys your nan would buy for Christmas when you were a kid. It would invariably end up smashing in to the skirting board or lodged under the sofa. Apart from that, i like him.
