Leicester -Manager Marti Cifuentes has to tackle this problem quickly. He continues to look for the best solution for Leicester. Cifuentes has changed between Patson Daka and Jordan Ayew as his top ahead. You get a very different form of your attack line with these two types of players. They are far from similar.
The presence of Patson Daka has currently been a ride of a few up’s but usually down’s. He is not a convincing attack option at the moment. Jordan Ayew is a hybrid, as Marti Cifuentes himself said. He combines qualities of an attacking midfielder and a striker. When you decide on the two, you create a completely different attacking structure. This change is a major problem for midfielders, because the structure varies considerably.
Looking at the two recent starts for Patson Daka, you notice various positives. However, his lack of scoring goals is starting to frustrate. His assist for Jordan James Goal vs. Wrexham was a beauty. Daka extends the opponent’s defense with his pace. His fast running is clear. However, his distribution is doubtful. His low goal ratio is also something to tackle. At the moment he is the player to call. Marti Cifuentes Looks more with his faith, with the Zambian in front.
Marti Cifuentes also has Julian Carranza at his disposal. The Lingman from Feyenoord has not been sharp at all. He has spoiled some clear opportunities.

Fortunately, Leicester did not use transfer funds on Julian Carranza. Carranza would not have left Feyenoord if he was a player they strongly rated. His score was at a good level when playing in MLS. Unfortunately, however, that competition has a very low standard and at level below the middle leaves in Europe. Carranza has a very low converent percentage in Dutch football and it seems to continue in the competition championship. You observe his first touch and control on the ball. Because of this you ask the type of benchmark that has been done when insquirating the Argentinian.
The best option for Marti Cifuentes is to use Stephy Mavididi, Abdul Fatawu and Jeremy Monga in the front in a rotation and liquid. They would terrorize the opponent if a more free running style should be involved. They can stretch and disrupt the back line of each team or opponent. We believe that Jeremy Monga needs more ball contact. It is currently wide positioned to perform his runs on the flank and inside. Leicester therefore becomes predictable.
Jamie Vardy was a wonderful servant for Leicester. However, his involvement prevented Leicester from evolving to the next level of liquid -attacking football. Players who go in and out at a much higher pace than we see today. Marti Cifuentes is a clear 4-3-3 manager. He must ensure that his players move more in and out of positions. This will help to get his attacking game in better form.
Building a possession based on possession is fantastic. Without more movement in certain areas, you get stuck. We often see this with Leicester. They tend to make a lot of back patches and too many movements sideways. Jacub Stolarczyk must be oriented much faster than he is at the moment to start faster. To see him start and stop is frustrating because players are not fast enough in their positions. This is a big problem and a problem to work on. The roles of those flanks at the front looks very strict. The lack of movement without the ball makes this too predictable. Individual flair currently dominates. This will make it vulnerable in real Leicester, instead of liquid -attacking football that depends on the game pattern.
Monga, Mavididi and Fatawu can play in advance with a great pace and exercise. They can all score goals from all corners. A flowing three men who attack structure will not work with players such as Ayew, Carranza and Daka. Their playing style is more traditional.
A fast pace and good control of the ball is a combination that we see that Monga, Mavididi and Fatawu manage. We also believe that Silko Thomas is one who can work with that in mind. Marcal must also be considered an option.
There is a daring movement for a smooth top three forward line. The more traditional with a striker and flanks will never kill anyone, but be more safe. Liverpool was fantastic with Mane, Firdino and Salah, so could be Leicester with Monga, Mavididi and Fatawu.
Early days. Marti Cifuentes often talks about movement. However, he must build his structure on more moving and change in positioning in advance. Looking at Liverpool and their game with that previous trio required special pressure on the ball. It will challenge midfielders and defenders to print to the utmost. This may be a challenge for players such as Winks, James, Soumare and the Cordova REID. It will also challenge the back line to go higher in the field. A certain Jannik Vestergaard can become an obstacle. Adjusting this style is not about holding the ball. That trio in the front in the right shape is the key. It will focus on attacks with more players. There will be a higher movement in all areas. We hope to see the best players play in a liquid setup, to get the best possible result. Leicester must also find players at a super pace to cover that backline.
Much is far from perfect, but it seems that this stumbles forward correctly. We look here at a wider perspective. To achieve the perfect shape, you have to think outside the traditional box of solutions.
