you obviously did not watch the game. Ndidi was the best player on the pitch at halftime according to whoscored . He was rated 7.4 after half time. He was hurled off for tactical reasons. Leicester needed more body upfront because they had a man advantage and also the coach was not gonna take chances leaving Ndidi on d pitch because he(Ndidi) was booked in d first half

tbaba1234:


The manager said it played a part.

Earthquake3:


Ndidi gets yellow cards almost every game,Anybody who watched the game saw what happened

Rodgers is only playing to the press

forgiveness:



Do you really know how to watch football? Hahahaha!

What an average comment as usual.

TheGoodJoe:


I think Rodgers was not playing to the press and explaining why Ndidi was the logical choice to take off. The team wanted to be more aggressive and Ndidi was also on a yellow.

So coupled with his limited distribution ability and a card, he was the best tactically to take off.

Earthquake3:


Rodgers talked about taking Ndidi off because of yellow card(in that report) which is not true

I've found out that Rodgers plays to the press a lot, in a recent interview he was asked about his plans for his squad

He said his job was to provide an enabling environment for his youngsters to develop, except those who don't want to develop he never wanted those anyway

A tongue in cheek way of saying he is going to offload players by the end of the season

TheGoodJoe:


I expect him to offload players but at Liverpool, I think the transfer market was his weak point and I hope he makes the right choices this time. If he can get the right players, with his tactical acumen, he will excel.

However, I think the explanation of why he took Ndidi was precise and there was no need to sugar-coat anything.

TheGoodJoe:


Despite spending only forty five minutes on the King Power Stadium turf, Ndidi racked up a game-high six tackles and also had a joint game-high two interceptions.

Defensively Ndidi was brilliant but we can not deny that without Ndidi in the set-up, Leicester City was far deadlier. Rodgers is a possessive-offensive manager and it showed in this game but most especially in the second half.

Ndidi needs to find away to be a key part of the set-up when they are playing in a very offensive fashion.

tbaba1234:


This is wildly inaccurate.. Ndidi has only 8 yellow cards this season

Khaytunechi:



Would they have been deadlier if Arsenal had 11 men on the pitch?? Would the coach have removed Ndidi if Arsenal were still 11 on the pitch?? There are nuances to this stuff,, yalls just saying he must find a way to be a part of the setup like he's totally useless despite having game highs in 45mins..

Earthquake3:


He completed 7 of the 8 matches which he got a yellow card

TheGoodJoe:


After the red card, Leicester City were not close to how they were in the second half even though Arsenal was a man down.

However, with Tielemans tucking in and Barnes coming in, they were meant to be more aggressive. However, tactically, Ndidi would be a draw back in such situation due to his limited build-up plays.

tbaba1234:


In 36 games, he has only 8 yellows.. Your claim that he gets a yellow every game is far off the mark.

Ndidi is generally a clean player.

Earthquake3:


That's off what we're saying but I expected Ndidi being a tough tackler to have a higher number of yellows

Bolowolowo:


This is a man who has appeared in only 17 la Liga games this far.

1 goal.

No assists.

Has only started 23% of the time.

Like several other Nigerian players in Europe, he has just been bang average this season. I truly wish the best for him.

Is it a crime to make objective and truthful statements on this thread

forgiveness:



Another average analyses.

Levante used 3-4-1-2 formation mostly this season. I don't need to explain about the circumstances.

Be more objective and trustful, and stop peddling half truth.

Nevertheless, I am not insinuating that Moses is having a wonderful season but be a little bit objective.

ChrisKels:
As much I dont wanna blacklist Manu Garba, I think Forgiveness aint entirely wrong, after all. Manu aint as clean as he seems. There is more to his selections and matchday squads than meets the eye. How does one explain his decision to sideline Adrian Akande after spending alot to get him all the way from England? Why does he not have players from the South East, Delta and Edo in his squad?

Khaytunechi:


I asked a straightforward question and instead of a straightforward answer, it was still Ndidi's limited buildup yen yen that you gave as answer. Well done sah.

Would the coach have removed him if Arsenal were still 11 on the field despite his supposed weakness?? Be playing down the nigga's strength while over emphasizing his weakness.

Joebie:
Lol. How do u know there were better players from those zones?

jihday:
people argue like there's an award for the best 'arguer' I find it laughable that some people think the coach is lying just because it's against their own narrative, why would it be hard for Rodgers to say 'I had to take him off and bring in an attacker so we could pile more pressure on arsenal as they have been weakened by a red card'? people just like to argue without any reason

TheGoodJoe:


I made it very clear that even with the red card, Leicester City were not offensive enough and my fear is that when they took Ndidi off, they played better.

With or without the red card, there is a possibility Ndidi would have been taking off if they wanted to play in a more aggressive fashion.

I wonder how a straight answer would be at play here.

BascoVanVeli:
I have not seen anything to prove that the Chelsea kid is as good as advertised. I have not even seen his stats online. Chelsea should be fuming if the player is that good but not a word from them. Someone might have played a trick on us. Those numbers could be fake.

ChrisKels:


Just as u haven't seen nothing to prove that that Bournemouth kid is an improvement on Shuaibu that manned the post against Tanzania, abi?
