We'll always have that Everton home game.

Well he has Everton away today. I do think he gets maltreated by opposition players and today is going to be more of the same.
He's had his rotation having been rested to the bench for the last game.
Lets be looking to debate on if he should have started this match and played come his and team performance.
Good Wishes Leon!


I hope you're watching young Leon closely today, Footy!

I'll also be watching how many times he'll be fouled and it goes unpenislied.  These things irritate players, and he gets himself booked for his own attempts to tackle. He's one of the few people I sympathise with when it comes to yellow cards because he's never committed a worse foul than some that have happened to him which go unpunished.
He's having to show character in order to play.

Can do this one before final whistle as was subbed.The early challenge and foul on Bailey where he won a free kick outside area put him off his stride and really wasnt effective.  Rightfully subbed.

Funny old game, we’ve played some lovely football against Leicester and Arsenal and get stuffed, play poor today and win comfortably.

Offload in the summer. Doesn't have the willingness for anything remotely physical and therefore too easy to get out of the game. He's a walking pass to the opposition.

He’s not cut out for this league, which is a shame. At times he looks the bollocks but that’s as rare as the Noses being good.

He has been getting plenty of opportunity but no where near good enough.
Plenty of talent but attitude and application severely lacking.
Waste of money.

Unfortunately he’s way too timid and gets dispossessed so easily. The odd bits of magic aren’t enough if we’re serious about European football.

Looks like we need to move him on. Hasn't worked out.

Such a poor player, needs to be first out of the door in the summer. £10m if we're lucky, back to Germany.

He just isn't contributing anything to our game atm and as such should be dropped to the bench. I'd like to see Duran, or even Bert (if he's match fit).
