Rico Henry

Rico Henry

I’d start him to, he was exceptional at Bournemouth. I suspect he won’t as he played his first full 90 mins in a long time and game was only Tuesday.
 

Rico Henry

Great to see Rico back. Pace is still there, unbelievable cover run to RB to make a tackle against Bournemouth.
The world’s largest IF but if he stays fit I can see him finally getting an England call up this season.
Long overdue

switched countries. Now Jamaican with Ethan

Start Rico today, but KLP starts when we come up against elite right wingers. We saw how he dealt with the likes of Salah last season.

Rico offers a lot with recovery runs when we send up the central defenders for corners and throw-ins

Rico in our first season was superb vs salah all there players said how quick Rico was.
 

Rico Henry

Not bothered about what anyone else says, it’s a ridiculously soft penalty. Guarantee that happens 5 times a game from set pieces, Taylor only gave it because he gave us one
It was going to be clamped down on this season as far as I remember.
And it happened today, good thing if it’s carried on with.
 

Rico Henry

Yeah that was never a pen, VAR will never overturn it though.

And they should all be given because they are fouls.
Its not soft, its a player dragging a player to the floor.
The problem is they have all got away with it up til now.
I hope this is a watershed now for them all being given and stupid footballers learning to not do it.
 

Rico Henry

Both penalties were soft. Henry was a bit unlucky in that he bumped into one of our own players when trying to mark/block, and then instinctively put his arms out on his man to compensate.
 

Rico Henry

Rico has a huge amount of brownie points in credit but it was beyond stupid to give away a penalty like that.
We all know about the referee’s crackdown this year and it couldn’t have been made any clearer when we got our penalty earlier on.
 

Rico Henry

Ill say it again and no doubt get slated.

He is still a long way off where he needs to be and KA not starting him for that reason also i assume.

No doubt he will be back to his best in months to come , but for me we need to concentrate on the players who are up to speed.

Issue is he needs minutes, but you cant give him minutes to try bring him up to speed quicker when the game is as tight as it was today.
 

Rico Henry

The penalty was dubious but the fact he kept their striker onside for their winner was terrible defending. KLP ALLLLLL day long currently
 

Rico Henry

Playing their guy onside for the goal was the bigger sin than the penalty IMO.

I want Rico to get more minutes and back to his best, but maybe not when the game is on a knife edge? In a tight game like yesterday it seems like an unnecessary risk, and ended up being key to our downfall.

Couple of big mistakes so far this season yesterday and the headed goal Vs forest

I agree.

9 out of 10 refs wouldn’t give that pen. Watching it again he has his arm on him, but it is a clear dive. I would go as far to say had Taylor not given the first one he wouldn’t have given the second one. He was looking for it.

How he gives that one but not the one on collins earlier needs dealing with, how can VAR be so inept
 

Rico Henry

One great run down the pitch off the bench yesterday, was great to have that option as KLP was tiring defensively.

But it was also a fairly major screwup to give the ball away and let Neto in behind him for Palmers big chance/Kelleher save.

Partly blame that on Ethan who, for some reason, had gone sprinting up the pitch leaving Rico to get caught 2 on 1 and fluffing his pass.

You can’t blame EP!!! You’ll be receiving angry, neutral, laughing emojis!!! lol

Thought Rico showed how he has lost that pace which backed up his game. Due to injury and being out for so long. Sad really.

Another great player hit by time and the league we are currently in.

I'm not sure he's lost that much pace, it was just that Neto is faster than people realise.

I love Pinnock, but he definitely was trying to offer an outlet upfield for the mistake mentioned, and left us exposed. Henderson had a chat with EP immediately after, so clearly something wasn't to plan.

At any rate, I'm sure the more football Henry plays, the better he'll get. Hopefully with us.

I agree on yesterday’s showing. But then I hope the same as we've seen with Ethan, long lay off, on first showings was very worried. Given time he’s back. unfortunately as we have moved on so much they neither are first names on the team sheet anymore.

I thought Rico played well for the time he was on
Interesting that he'd obviously been instructed to go into their 6 yd box for corners
New tactic?

Rico has been out so long it's going to take time to get fully up to speed again... Some of you seem to be forgetting his show at Bournemouth already 🙄🙄

Yes, the "last man" role has gone to Kayode it appears.
