Leicester City (H) Post Match Thread

[Colin Bells Boots]

Ridiculous from Pep, just gets more shit thrown his way for daft comments. They're allowed to play how they want and have outsmarted us, it just riles Pep that he's been done.

Doesn't do himself any favours when he gives interviews like that after a fucking shit show by us.

Better to allude to other issues if he felt the need .

I agree there are bigger problems but let’s not give him a free ride because others are worse. He rarely makes show stopping saves.

Honestly I'm sat here in work and I'm seriously thinking back to which goals over the last 18 months he should have saved?

There's not that many Surely?

A lot of quality goals are scored against us i know that much.

Dont like to agree with him but Rag Neville summed up the big difference from two years ago. When we lost posession we didnt work together and close players down quickly. Half thr team play like they've already won. Teams have seen City snd Liverpool and work hard we seem to have gone backwards with work ethic , except Kev

Is there a team in the premier league who doesn’t have a better left back than Mendy? I’m sure there must be but I can’t think of one!

mendy needs turfed out. the lad is a complete liability and should be nowhere near any team challenging for the top 6, let alone the title.

 

[Sky Blue]

You have to put it in context tho.

The establishment are sick to death of city winning everything. Didn’t you see how elated they were on Sky? It was like Liverpool had won the CL again.

Little cûnt Neville was close to wetting himself with excitement.

The final one we conceded last season?

Fern should never start in central midfield. His legs have gone. I agree Foden should have been central.

Complete shambles today. Mostly down to injuries and bad individual errors.

I thought we were superb for 45 mins at Wolves before we got tired and I thought that attitude would see us through today. Seems the Lyon defeat did not hurt enough.

Sadly I don’t think Fern is our worst option in CM, even when Gundogan is fit. He can’t get around the pitch like he used to, but he’s a more expansive passer than either Rodri or Gundogan. He distributes it quicker and also covers the ground quicker and anticipates stuff better. The fact we’re playing him there, or even using the double pivot at all is because none of our 6s can do the job on their own.

Today we did similar tactically to what we did against Lyon. We sabotaged our own strengths, in this case where Foden and Sterling have been working well to compensate for one player being injured.

We used to really harass when we lost possession often 2 or3 closing down the person on the ball giving him no option but a risky pass or being tackled

Not being funny but as the best coach in the world its his fucking job to replace aging players with suitable replacements. He's paid well enough to do it

My sympathy to your sister. He has enough time to practice cos he obviously doesn't practice defending

Bet he never got in the box...
