Martinelli has Fofana on toast at present

Edited August 13, 20223 yr by charierre

Pull out of this, he's been all over the place against Arsenal in these first 20 minutes. Looks like a red card waiting to happen.

Can’t say I’m seeing 80 m worth here. Great finish by Jesus.

Little bit harsh to judge him on 20 minutes when he's unsettled.

VDV looked horrible coming to the end of his time at Southampton for the same reason.

Jamie Vardy? More like Oliver Hardy.

Have to admit Arsenal are playing some lovely football. Lots of players getting forwards in transition and some fantastic passing. Zinchenko looks a brilliant signing for them.

Quick transition not passing it around endlessly.

Zinchenko is one I would have liked too but unlike GJ we did not have much of a chance as Zinchenko apparently has an excellent relationship with Arteta and went there for him.

Zinchenko is excellent on the ball but not a player you'd trust defensively.

He should take a second yellow 

just pick up the ball and throw it away

that's one hell of a message you want to leave

I don't see an £80m centre back on the pitch today.

Half these players don't want to play for Rodgers anymore. 

Whilst we perhaps shouldn’t judge him on one game, he has been seriously bad today.

Didn't have a good game but clearly doesn't want to be there

 

More like Wesley Fofacksake today but his head is turned

For 80m we should be able to buy both Ndidi and Fofana...

Wow.. trevoh looks better than him .. very very raw

Not sure if he tanked it on purpose, but at least that world record transfer fee nonsense should be put to bed after todays performance.  Maybe Todd asked him to switch off today to save at least 10 million.

The last thing we want is to sign another player that will down tools because he doesn't like the manager.

So looked more like a 30mill defender today from what I heard. Will he turn out to be a McGuire if we eventually get him?

Think people are being a bit harsh. His head might not be at leicester anymore. Rudiger played awful at the end of last season when his head was in Madrid.

Is the price tag that is causing concern. Leicester need to keep him and Maddison as otherwise they could be heading for the drop.

I am not sure this looks like a goodbye but it could be

Don't care if his head isn't in Leicester, that was sh*t from him today and put me right off. Rudiger's level may have dropped slightly towards the end, but nothing like that and he still maintained a very high level.

He didn't look any better than Chalobah, and I see Chalobah as a squad player at best for us.

This one is actually scary, the transfer fee is just ridiculous and no mental gymnastics can justify it whatsoever. The tag of ‘most expensive defender ever’ will haunt him, as it would any player not on Messi/Ronaldo/generational god-level profile.

Fair but I think its just one game. Not trying to defend him but I think its harsh people are judging him on one game. If Tuchel wants him he probably watched more than one game and believes he can fill the defensive gap we have.
