Leicester City (H) - Post-Match Thread

and also a left back if we want to win a CL. zinc I do not consider a true full back. we basically have 2 FB in the squad

Agree.

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue didn’t give in. They fought to the end. Thank you lads, thank you City, thank you fans. You showed ‘em, you showed ‘em all.



Especially old toothie whatsit! ;-)

Well we got to a final many think we should have won without a left back, so we can win it without a left back.

hard disagree. if we had a LB who can get to the byline and cross and a center forward presence in the box who can head then we are 100 percent wining that final. our 2 FB's that game created nothing when chelsea were so deep in their box

Tough to see Ferno struggling out there in the second half. Still,he made some important tackles, one that put off Madison off from slotting home. We’re so much in control with Rodri in the team and today showed we can’t be without him in big games.

Surely the 40k is a misprint?

Didn’t stop them all repeating a visibly false figure for the Leipzig game

Still the king, he just can’t last for more than about an hour tops nowadays. First half he monstered Tielemans who I would still love us to sign as his successor

 

[Irishblue93]

I blame @Irishblue93 for that 2nd half, saying Iheanacho had never done anything against us then he goes and gets 2 assists and a goal.

I made up for it by saying raz had done nothing since his penalty!

 

[LongsightM13]

Well that was a pleasant surprise after the first half. :>

But Christ we need some more players!

Fair play to your lot today, not a peep during the minute’s silence for fallen blues of 2021. Not every fanbase has been so respectful over the years, fair to say

 

[Grassland Blue]

Maths not your strong point?

47 pts so far.
+ possible 57
47+57= 104.

 

[LongsightM13]

Bollocks
Pep should be fuming ar that 15 min shambles
Thank fuck Laporte made up for his utter brainfart

He slipped on a wet pitch, 50 yards from goal, after one of his teammates put him in trouble with a half arsed effort.
Three people could have done more after that
But yeah, blame Laporte

 

[Gingers Dad]

they deserve pep ripping them to shreds after that second half performance.

almost. almost... an embarrassment.

Leicester had 14 attempts from 29% possession. couldve gone very very wrong.

People on the Internet just make me laugh. Keep it up

 

[OB1]

A veritable Christmas cracker, entertainment wise. Well worth the six hours of driving.

 

[LongsightM13]

True, never seen an away team have so many chances, it was basketball esq. 1st half could have been 6-3

 

[LongsightM13]

People on the Internet just make me laugh. Keep it up

He is absolutely spot on.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Welcome to the Premier League.

 

[NZBlue]

Fuck my arse!!!!

Not in front of the kids, if it's all the same to you.

Is that your only reservation?

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Doubt we can get a player as good as rodri and keep both of them happy, apparently rodri wasn’t happy last season when he lost his place. Rodri doesn’t get injured much so we have gundogan then stones or ake if desperate.

I don’t want someone as good as Rodri. I just want an experienced player that can do a short term job until Lavia is ready (if the club believes in him). If Fernandinho could run he’d be ideal, but we have to find another option.

 

[eastmanc]

I’d like to see Walker and Stones back as soon as possible, we looked quite fragile at the back in the second half. Let’s get back to the Stones Diaz partnership.

 

[LongsightM13]

Lookman is the next Nkunku

He is one of them strange players who can look bang average against everyone else but weirdly always looks dangerous and at his best against us.
I can remember him giving us terrors as a sub for Everton one time a few years back
File alongside Vardy, Shane Long, Andros Townsend, Robbie Keane etc.
Two in consecutive games at our place for Maddison as well

Always seems to be a mad dramatic game when we play Leicester, going back to Wembley 69. The day everyone realised they could actually win the league, Pep’s first season hammering, last year and the three penalties. More happily, Vinnie’s worldy, Kev’s worldy, Carabao penalty drama.
I mean, I once saw them play us off the park in a cup tie when I think they were in the second division.
We squeezed in at 0-0 HT, then in the second half the utterly shite Kare Ingebrigsten, who never scored for us before or since, scored a quick fire hat trick.
Then the even shiter Alan Kernaghan strode out of defence like Beckenbauer into midfield and chipped the keeper from 40 yards. One of the best goals I ever saw live at Maine Road
That was even more of a madness than today

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Is that your only reservation?

How many can he take at once?!
