Luke Thomas is wank

[Slim Man]

And Larouchi is genuinely better than him.

I have nothing more to say

 

[Bladezz]

Max Lowe is clear of them all

Yep. Sorry state of affairs.

He’ll still start on Wednesday.

 

[bladesmanluke]

Max Lowe's feet don't do what his brain tells them, but you're still not wrong

 

[Bell4]

He may be - but this is the standard of player that we are resorting to thanks to this awful owner

 

[Rudders]

Max Lowe's feet don't do what his brain tells them, but you're still not wrong

Max Lowe for about 5 games last season was an upper championship wing back. That puts him levels above Thomas

 

[BettingBlade]

Mental how competitive that left back position is in our all time worst ever squad

 

[bladesmanluke]

I actually think Osborn is our best left back and he's not even a left back

 

[Thrice]

Ben Osborn may still be the best LWB in the squad. At least he's not a defensive liability.

Think you're overrating Thomas the Wank Engine there pal.

 

[FTPE]

Ben Osborn may still be the best LWB in the squad. At least he's not a defensive liability.

RND is technically in the squad.
But match day sqauds you're probably right.

The best thing is, there were loads of posters on here telling us that we had to “be patient” after we sold Berge and Ndiaye in the summer, we were patient and we ended up with Luke Thomas as a late window signing. Well worth waiting for.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

We could not possibly have dreamed up a bigger waste of a domestic loan

The problem though was not signing him, it was signing Larouci.
The Larouci signing needed to be a convincing regular starter. But our former left back manager inexplicably saw fit to take a careless 'that'll do' punt for an absolutely crucial top 3 priority position where only one signing was intended and budgeted for

 

[Jimmy Fleck]

There’s a reason why Leicester didn’t want him… in the championship

Leicester Fans Views On Luke Thomas — The View From

"Everyone said last year he was championship quality so we should loan him out. Now we are in the Championship loaning him to a PL team." "He just hasn't managed to kick on from when he broke into the team. Not really progressed like Chilwell did.I like him a lot as a professional though and

After the drop ball incident last week any decent manager would have said, that's not good enough, have a rest for a couple of weeks. The fact he picks him 7days later send out all the wrong messages!

Hecky really has lost the plot.

I honestly think he’s trolling the owner now

Certainly the Fleck selection smacked a bit of that didn't it.

 

[CPB]

As others have said. Osborn would be a sounder option at lwb. That or try Larouchi again and see.

Yesterday though aside from dropping Souza and starting Anel and McBurnie was not what I was hoping for. You'd want to see McAtee start.
Why is there an insistence on not playing Hamer in that middle position? The one he played well at Coventry?

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

He had a poor game yesterday.

If we accept that there is a possibility that Liverpool may beat us in the week it might be worth giving some players a break (including Wes) and let some of the others join the fray.

 

[JackSUFC]

RND doesn’t count. He’s more or less finished at this point.

Another career ruined at this club.

 

[Kevincarterversion2.0]

Completely agree. Luke Thomas has been absolutely awful. Larouchi Was better.

 

[Edinblade]

Edna Stevens would be better.

 

[HD8 Blades]

Can we get a “confirmed “ on this thread please?

 

[HD8 Blades]

Edna Stevens would be better.

So would Evil Edna

 

[ancientblade]

we should go to a back 4 with either trusty or robinson at left back put 5 in midfield and play osula up top

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

He probably looks better in training than the others that's why he gets picked to start it's not hard to look better than the others I might add.

 

[mancunianblade]

Raise a glass to the idea that we used one of two domestic loans on him to cover an international loan we had just brought in.

 

[nopigfansintown]

I feel sorry for him. He's massively out of hus depth and getting chucked under the bus every time he plays at this level. I thought Bogle was an absolute disgrace when he came on yesterday. Neshed everything. The same with Archer who was a total joke. Fleck, Norwood and Thomas are just so far out of their depth at this stage I have sympathy with all three. They shouldn't be in a Premier League squad.

Agreed which makes you question what they saw in him. This is a direct Heckingbottom quote

'Luke has got a top pedigree, he's a good young player who also has a wealth of experience at Premier League level. What also impressed me was that he was hungry to come in and is keen to get started.'
