Celebrated like he'd scored the winner in the Champions League final after his admittedly well-taken goal, jumping over the barrier etc. A few minutes later, wild shot from an unlikely angle when other players in a great position. Welbz absolutely loses his sh*t with him - and rightly so. I know he's young, but someone needed to tell him - if we don't win the game, your goal will mean jack sh*t.

Another one with a lot to learn. Imagine he'll cop some flak for their first goal. Need to see it again to be sure but remember Lamptey had stepped forward with a player, Van Hecke gestured to Minteh to cover behind him - and there's Vardy in miles of space. Not all Minteh's fault but didn't track back at all.

Just watched the highlights back. His defending for the second was atrocious. Actually stopped running with Vardy in front of him.

So the point is...

Don't celebrate?
Don't score as it might not matter?
Only score if we will win?

Either way, I'm sure it's extremely helpful and he will be taking notes

For their first, Minteh and Lamptey were bloody awful.

I’d argue the guys in the centre of our midfield were bloody awful.

Dunk and Igor were awful for the second.

There’s a lot of blame to go around again.

But we get that you don’t like Lamptey

JPVH for that first too. No awareness of two waiting LC players.

Someone needs to tell him people remember match winners, not equalisers or losers.

What's a match losing goal? Own goal?

Not sure he did one of those

It feels like you've started a statement and realised halfway through it made no f***ing sense

A goal on the losing side. Not that hard to work out surely, if work out necessary.

Took his goal well, but his first contribution when he came on… well. Looked like he crossed it with a baby’s leg.

So again, only score if he KNOWS we will win.

He put us 2 up but he should have realised as he was stroking it in that there was no point..

Brilliant. Another excellent contribution.

The reason I struggled was because I assumed it wasn't as thick as it read. Turns out it was.

No idea where you’ve gone off to and on what liquor but have a good one all the same.

Ok. Explain your original post and what it actually meant

I'll remind your of your insightful post

"Someone needs to tell him people remember match winners, not equalisers or losers."

What does that actually mean?

You seem to be going to on a rant somewhere and I’m happy to let you do so. Cheerio.
