Not a great defender and if Leicester are forced to play him to the end of the season there is a good chance they will end up in the playoffs and not automatic. If they go up to the premiership forget about him they will bring in better probably foreign.
Chair, Dykes, and Willock had a field day yesterday.
Yes he will have been looked on sparingly a goal on debut, he got 7 in the FLP Faes 6 makes you wonder how though the three QPR front runners got two 7's and a 8 Armstrong the sub a 7 and they were marking them and let in two goals.

I’m getting the sense you really don’t like him.
Time will tell, they will both have careers in the game for sure.
Guess it comes down to different interpretations of technical ability being a better defender or easy on the eye. The last time Leicester had two brick s**t houses they won the premiership.
My big gripe is not with putting Faulkner as a player up against Nelson but the way my club Doncaster Rovers were and are so bad at projecting young players that come through our own academy. Faulkner has been de valued, a discarded manager stating he thought he would be worth £2million by now treated correctly, and yes injuries have played their part , but being ignored for the start of this season with results like we had was next to criminal. Moore crucified more than one and ultimately cost us the best part of a million pounds in a matter of weeks, Goodman is going through the same proses as Faulkner with little to no game time for most of a season, Flint is playing at u18s level where he has been comfortable since being 16 years old and gets little out of the games he plays in. To be honest I find it pathetic, and has gone on for years, the academy bringing in more value added finances to the club on youngsters than the worth of all the first team if you had wrapped them all together as a lot last season.. Its as if we are hell bent on bringing in players to increase value for other clubs benefit as an aim of the club, or is it easier to get four or five in hoping a couple come off than coaching our own players and giving them an opportunity? The biggest advantage a youngster can have is playing at a so called big club, we have seen a few here from Brighton and Manchester City and United, Spurs and quite a few have not been worth the paper they signed to come here. Now I don't for one minute cast Nelson in that light, but he was not that special at Rochdale or here.
