Leicester City (H) Post Match Thread

[lazerblue]

The manager and board have been here long enough now to know you have to strengthen every summer which we've failed to do, how long have we had to replace vinny, aguero and fernandinho, plus mendy and silva, piss poor, toothless up front combined with a Sunday league back 4 = 2-5

Mendy just isn’t all that is he.

 

[vmsuhail]

I can't even remember ever watching a game where a team concedes 3 penalties.

United against Liverpool - 2013/14

He looks lost!

Time for a change in management.

Our central/defensive midfield is crap without Fernandinho.

Its as clear as day that when he's not playing our defence is completely exposed.

Best not buy one though as the money is needed to fund a 34 year old Messi next year...

We need a left back and Dias is signing a few weeks too late.

I refuse to blame Pep for the fuckwittery defending I witnessed just now!

Pep bought Mendy, Rodri, played Garcia, and got his tactics woefully wrong today, 100% on Pep

 

[Whether or not]

The bloke who gets a total free here ride is Khaldoun. But he has let Pep drift into the last year of his contract, he looks totally burnt out. Whilst Toure, Kompany, Silva, Zabaletta just have not been replaced with the same quality. The buck stops at the top, time for a change your HRH.

Mendy has always gotten away with it because of his injury.

Barring a lamentable first-half showing from us in the loss at Monaco and 20, rinse and repeat crosses in an opening day win at Arsenal, he has never shown anything that justified a £50m purchase.

His deficiencies are many and aren't because of injury or now fitness, it's because he can't defend and isn't particularly quick running back to his own goal.

Same goes for Garcia, runs in treacle and because he came from Barca, somehow gives him a stamp of quality.

Pep went down in my estimation when he picked him for the Lyon game.

Sadly, it is one of many poor errors of judgment during this year.

I genuinely don't see how having two fit strikers today would have made any difference to the result in terms of legislating for other players on the pitch who just aren't nowhere good enough for present Manchester City.

Reckon he’ll stay beyond the year? If not who would you want in

We’ve got poor quality players that were seriously overpriced and overrated, Mendy, Rodri, Mahrez, Cancelo

Our transfers have been abysmal of late what the hell is going on? Compare these to our rivals, we’re signing cart horses. This could set us back years.
