Match Thread v Cardiff

Indeed Leics buddy. I calm myself confident that the return of Hegazi for (Bartley) will tighten up our defence. To be fair he made some good headers, but positionally and marking he is poor. Seems to follow the ball if you know what I mean.

Bartley is not the only one that makes mistakes If you look at both goals yesterday Ajayi is at fault, i'm also a little bit worried that we are letting Hegazi play for Egypt over the international break surly it would be better for the club to be managing the final stages of his comeback rather than let him go away again.

I thought the same regarding Hegazi s’n’s buddy. Strange. I wonder does the club have the final say regarding international call up ? Presumably covered within their player contract.
Regarding Bartley, I’m pleased with his improvement this season, particularly strong defensive headers. Unfortunately, his ball skills are poor, and his constant short pass forward to a midfield player, who as a result is immediately under pressure, is unnecessary. To follow it up with pointing and ‘why’ one hand gestures, is disappointing. I would rather he clears the ball up the wing.
Having said that, he did indeed follow that suggestion a few times. So happy to give credit when due.
Undoubtedly Hegazi is a better option.

I would hope the club has the final say but it appears in Hegazi's case he must have a say if he hadn't been allowed to go to ANC and had the operation instead he would have been fit for the start of the season, mind you we might have been tempted to sell him then for the right price.
