cidered abroad Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 From his poorest performance in a City shirt last week to the first City defender to shut out, even obliterate, Ince. Top Quality he is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 We just have to accept that he’ll have the odd poor game. I don’t think he’s been stellar this season, but he’s done very well for age and experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boston Red Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Ince absolutely flew at Kelly and Kelly just stood there. He backed off, waited, read what Ince was going to, and then calmly blocked him or won the ball off him. Again and again and again. It was like Bobby Moore against Brazil in 1970. Well done Lloyd!!!

Alex_BCFC Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Did a good job today against Ince who usually gets a goal or assist against us. Despite the odd bad game you can see the boy is class and he won’t be at City for the long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been poor his last couple of games but he is still young so like most youngsters is inconsistent. Personally I think LJ has managed him very well taking him out of the firing line at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up The City! Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 It's absolutely vital we hang on to him until the summer at least. Young players are always going to have bad games and make mistakes, that's part of the learning curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Totally Football Show podcast recently Pat Nevin said he had recommended him to Moyes but Moyes said no, he's too casual and makes mistakes. Nevin replied that that was because he was bored because he found it all too easy! In due course Lloyd could be playing alongside Virgil perhaps.

Spike Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 The idea of losing Kelly right now is one of my biggest concerns, it may not hit us straight away if he leaves but with our other option being DaSilva who is only here on loan it's a major concern how hard it would be to replace not one, but two left backs with a similar level of quality.

If we dont lose him this month we will in the summer. Enjoy him while he is still here. Good news for us is that you can see a bidding war happening.

Good news for us is that you can see a bidding war happening. I think this a realistic view, it's also a major concern when you consider come the end of the season we could be without Kelly and will certainly be without Kalas and DaSilva. Our biggest strength this season is the defence and we're looking likely to lose half of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcofisher Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Can see us selling him with a view to have him loaned back. I would snap your hand off for £15mill and loaned back until the end of next season, probably until the end of this season is all that’s realistic.

Hampshire Red Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Agree with Bob Bob today. LK has been sloppy, looked complacent etc but it's his personality on the pitch. In fact today he was poor for an hour and when the 'Men had to stand up like Men' he was excellent for the last 30mins. Mind you all of the back four were really good It sparks a good debate for the forum. Any LK deal to Lpool could look like Brexit: 50/50 it will be done, could be complex with dozens of different views on what is a good exit price, £5, 10,15m? Will we then keep him until May, have sell-on trade clauses, have a replacement LB signed up? So complex no-one on here can accurately forecast it and we certainly don't want a people's vote!!

No replacement required. Cam Pring is very, very good too. He’ll do for once Lloyd has earned SL a tidy sum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concentration is a massive part of becoming a top player, especially against top opposition. This will also improve with age no doubt. On his way to the top imo. Got to enjoy him while he’s here!

Lanterne Rouge Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 On their forum the Stokies are saying Ince was the only one trying to make things happen for them but gave up once he realised it wasn`t happening for him. Credit to Lloyd without them actually admitting it I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leveller Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 I think he’s excellent defensively, but tends to be too cautious in possession, hesitating to push forward and use his winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
