This might sound crazy, but I think his work at Jong PSV gives a better perspective on how Van Nistelrooy will tactically set up at Leicester. They were great on the counter attack, and the main criticism at PSV was the too controlled approach playing the weaker sides in the Eredivisie.

Hi Jim, as a Leicester fan all we are hoping for is a system and a plan. Cooper had us 16th which we would take come May yes but we had no set way of playing, the line up changed every week as did Cooper's idea of what he wanted to do. He had a full (and terrible) pre-season with us and in late November he still didn't have this sorted and think that's why Top got rid. The only defence people had of him was 'there are worse teams than you' but after Ipswich's good results and other improvements from the likes of Wolves, that excuse to keep Cooper became so weak and dangerous as banking on the results of rivals is so unsustainable. With Ruud, it'll be tough but as long as we know what we're going to get week in week out, whether that be formation, style, patterns of play then I feel way more confident with him than Cooper who was seemingly making it up as he went along at times.

Great video. Quick point (I'm probably not the only one saying this in the comments). He wasn't sacked, he left as he wasn't backed by the board.

I agree Evan Ferguson would be ideal, but with Buonanotte on loan from Brighton, they’re not allowed to get another loanee from them unfortunately

@adamcaldicott2115 2 ай бұрын

I think Buonanotte will be a target for signing permanently even if it isn't a loan to buy

Leicester is an exciting team because there is potential and it would be fantastic to see this club climb back up the Prem!!

Commenting after LC beat West Ham. Couple of takeaways from that: 1. Defensively solid through the spine of the team. The Hammers had lots of shots, but relatively few clear cut chances (compared to the number of shots they took at least). 2. Luke Thomas had been out of favor at the club for over a year at this point. I doubt he gets much game time, especially if Kristiansen puts in performances like he did this week. 3. Midfield of Soumare, Winks, El Khannouss is what looks to be the way forward. El Khannouss has a massive game, and if he can keep the form will be a problem for lots of teams. 4. McAteer got the job over Mavididi, I would guess because of his work rate. That’s really the only complaint I have against Stephy at times. 5. Daka had a good 30 min in the second half. If Ruud deploys him as a willing runner who presses and has load of pace, he’s going to shine.

He confirmed today at the presser that he will look to play 442 out of possesion and a 3 box 3 in possesion. So there are two ways you can achieve that shape. The first is what he did at PSV. One FB tucks in beside the CBs like you say, the other pushes into the winger position with the winger moving in alongside the 10 to make up the "box" with the two deeper lying CM's and the FB, Winger and striker completing the other 3. The other way is what Enzo done last year. One FB tucks in, the other moves in beside a CDM forming the base of the box with two 8's pushing forward and making up the top of it and the ST, and two wingers forming the top 3. We dont really have the perfect personel for either with injuries so it will be interesting how he makes it work but he said it himself, that IS the shape he will go for.

I think RVN can implement a system and tactical flexibility within a system. Honestly I think we should've appointed him instead of Cooper in the summer. His short stint at united shows that he can make a team more compact and more difficult to break down. At the same time I want to see him really utilize the squad, players like Daka, Mavididi and McAteer who haven't played much this season.

Thank you for this one. After tomorrow's match (9 dec) v BHA you could do a review and test your Theory against the two matches so far? FYI - In the press conferences RVN has talked about playing 4-4-2.

@chris.2672 2 ай бұрын

With the current squad, the player who can best do the job of a deep winger on the left wing is Victor Kristiansen. Thomas doesn't give you all that physical display and speed to get up and down.

Agree. Probably Leicester's best left footed crosser of the ball.

I’m sorry but I’ve not watched the full video but putting Luke Thomas at LB has physically hurt me massively and makes me want to cry

@mattheendpod2659 2 ай бұрын

From last season and from knowing the squad, this is the most likely. As Ricky is injured, Choudhury inverts from right back with okoli plus Vestergaard as his passing through the lines is essential from a three to a box. The spinning top (faes) will shunt to left back as he has great recovery but zero static positional awareness, filling the Doyle role from last year. Winks sole 6, passing through the second line. Bounanotte filling the Simons CAM role plus maybe Ndidi or whoever, Mavadidi hugging the width one side and Fatawu’s replacement, whoever on the other. Vardy and hermansen.

@owengoldberg7253 2 ай бұрын

I think El Khannnouss and Buonanotte together works really well, similar to Amorim with 2 10s and a striker. Vardy works best in behind and I think those 2 can pick out Vardy with simple balls in behind

@joshlcfc8433 2 ай бұрын

VK is streets ahead of Luke Thomas who simply isn’t a PL player. First game he went for Coadys commitment and leadership alongside our best defender who is Vestergaard. Faes is a bombscare. Okoli looks good. El Khannouss, Buonanotte and Vardy will keep us up.

@tsmith6203 2 ай бұрын

a 433 in a mid block is the best tactic for Leicester. That way the 2 wider CM's can offer protection for the full backs in the channels and give the front 3 a bit more freedom to counter, as most of our wingers aren't defensively good. This is something liverpool have done to protect Trent whos defensive abilities are lacking.

@benbarrington2079 2 ай бұрын

I think James Justin is unreliable due to him being awful defensively. I've been thinking about it, especially after Jacob Horsfall made a video where he put Kristiansen in a back three. At first, I didn’t like the idea, but I think Kristiansen is better than James Justin defensively. However, his attacking output is really good. I would possibly try Hamza Choudhury there, as he’s very good defensively and even played full-back a bit under Maresca. Also, as someone mentioned in the comments, we can't loan in Ferguson because we already have Butanoate on loan. However, I'm a bit concerned about Butanoate in January, as Brighton, the team that loaned him to us, could cancel the loan if they decide to sell him, especially if they get a good offer. I think we’re clearly missing Fatawu, and maybe we could convince Liverpool to loan us Ben Doak so he can get Premier League experience rather than playing in the Championship. I’m not sure how much can be done in terms of transfers in January due to FFP, so loan moves may be our best option.

@trulyethan 2 ай бұрын

FFP and PSR it's a new 3 year period. I expect 2/3 new players to come in. I think Justin has been caught out but it's more a systemic issue where he was always 1v1 with the winger and was always trying to recover from an advanced position. I think Kristiansen works in a back 3 especially if we do play Mavididi as when they played together they always got in each others' way

@vflmatip2025 2 ай бұрын

@@trulyethan Yes and no with Justin his marking has also been absolutely horrendous evidenced recently by that Brighton goal where he just literally let him go. I agree hamza should be given that role. I do agree with Kristiensen point as well however maybe just play Mavadidi as more as an inside forward if Kristeansen is bombing up that wing so Mavadidi can get into the half spaces more effectively. Why I want Choudhry to be in that back 3. Also would like to see el kanos have a go out wide despite never really playing there. He’s looked quite good at times when he’s drifted out there. Want to keep buanotte in the middle

I'm a Leicester so obviously hoping we stay in the league. Only 9 wins to 40 👍 RVN said he would set up with 442 when defending and 3421 when attacking in media interviews, so not quite your 433. Faes even though he's an international has been a liability for a while. You could even see that when he came on against West Ham, we lost the clean sheet. Coady and Vestergaard look like the CBs with Justin and Kristiansen. Soumare and Ndidi were brilliant as DMs, they won't change but Winks will probably come in after his injury. You missed out Bilal El Khannnouss who scored his first goal and got an assist v West Ham (only 4.8 on FPL btw) will likely play in the 10 role with Mavididi and Buonanotte on the wings. McAteer will likely play in Buonanotte's place this weekend because he's loaned from Brighton. McAteer was great in the championship and could push on like Barnes and Madison have. Again he got an assist v West Ham. Of course Vardy up top. Despite his age. He has 5 goals in 14 games and 3 assists. Definitely on for surpassing Owen's 150 premier league goals. Only 9 away
