Rafael Leao

[K.D.D.D.D.Soc]

I'm not saying that I want him or that I think he would be suited to Spurs under RDZ but I thought Leao looked OK last night.

I didn't think he looked lazy at all, in what way did you think he was lazy?

I saw a player who kept his position well, often showed for the ball and didn't waste it when he got it. Spain were wary of him and tried to to get a second player out to help Porro with him every time. When they did that he tend to keep the ball, making some nice triangles with his full back and midfield player. When he received it with only Porro to beat he tended to run at Porro and was able to beat him a few times.

When Spain attacked through Yamal, I saw Laeo getting back and covering inside his full back in case Yamal beat him. I also saw him tracking Porro when Porro moved forward. I fail to see how his performance was lazy or him giving half effort?

You often see players put in extra effort when representing their country, many have great pride in their nation, an alien concept in England for many reasons.

So you're using other people opinions to make grand statements. I'd recommend you do your own research before you make categorical statements based on prerogative 2nd hand opinion.

And to be clear I'm not even saying Leao is the answer I just find it funny you're making strong claims despite you not having first hand experience with him.

So not listening to the people whose job it is to watch and report the players performances is what i should do? I have not claimed my opinion as fact, i have said i think he looks lazy off of the ball and various people who have seen him play back this up. I don’t see what your issue is. Do the club have to get my ok to sign anyone?

Do the club have to get my ok to sign anyone?

No, but it might be worth running it past Villa and Saudi Sportswashing Machine fans.
