Leicester City (A) - Post-Match Thread

@SebastianBlue

What does double 0 get you from that? [emoji51][emoji51]

Had Aguero for fgs and also fgs and City win so you can imagine we’re not speaking currently.

A good game, City deserved the win. We’re still not at our best, but the clean sheet is good, although Vardy should have scored. Interesting watching on Bein sports, Wenger said Kun would have been declared onside next season, with the proposed amendment. He also said Collina agrees with it. We need to look at penalties, the last 4 in the league missed; and by FOUR different takers. That is the problem.
I don’t understand why Kev doesn’t take penalties. Best striker of the ball we have. That’s a start.
 
It wasn’t the free kick that directly hit de Bruyne’s arms, the ball hit de Bruyne from a deflection off Laporte from a yard away from him.

Whereas that Praett’s hit his arms directly from the shot.

I think that’s where the difference was and why they ended up as different decisions.

Do you actually believe this???
No issue being partisan, it’s a Man City forum, but You all hate the injustice against you from perceived bigger clubs, so would have expected more empathy.
 
It doesn't say much for our club when supporters are begging for the fucking goalie to take penalties because they don't trust TEN outfield players to take them.


Bring Franny out of retirement.

Penalties are probably 50/50 between technique and the mental aspect. Eddie has both in spades. Oh, and he will hit it like an Exocet missile so the keeper will probably want to keep da fuck out the way.

I’d love to see us try this, we’d probably be guaranteed a goal, and an awful lot of piss would get boiled as well!

That’s where I think the difference in the decision making will have been made, yes.

I’d have given both as penalties, myself.
 
I know and that's what worries me, we're due a bad one.

If we need one next Sunday after 120 minutes against Villa things will have gone majorly awry.

Hopefully not required against Madrid, that would be a tough one given the technical ability in their squad

We missed our penalty out of sympathy for the one you didn't get, what more do you want? ;)

Both penalties tonight imo.
 
Him being in midfield was why we were so good.

Pep’s done to Leicester twice this season what he did to us when he was at Bayern in that 1-3 defeat in 2013. Bayern had 7 v our 4 in midfield and completely bossed the game.

Both in December and today we completely dominated the game, looking many levels a better team than Leicester despite what the league table says, because we didn’t allow them any time on the ball in midfield and we won it back and kept it easily in their half.

Only one goal wins each time but we were miles better in both games, not just as a team, but tactically too.
I realise that today pep didn't want him bombing on because of vardys pace but he's hardly been used as an overlapping player all season and I think we lose a great attacking threat when teams defend in numbers

Fair enough, pretty sure we would have missed too :)

Have not seen the thing with Nacho and your goalie again yet, looked grim at first viewing.

I didn't think KDB's was a pen. Ball hits his arms in front of his face. It's a completely different scenario to the pen. we got. KDB was not making his body profile bigger.

I don't like VAR but imo this is not an argument against it.
 
Would love to know what’s happening here,
Wonder if mendy fucked up? Or it’s just peps patented post match adrenaline shouting time
“What do you mean the club’s panicking Pannick is the name of the QC you nincompoop now go and get showered”
