Fans leaving after 20 mins are ****s. No two ways around it.

I made the same point in an earlier post.
We're lacking in the basic fundamentals: tackling, distance on defensive headers, marking tight when the opposition have the ball, blocking shots (watch Silva's pathetic attempt for Leicester's 2nd)

They're not defensive headers, they are lay offs for their strikers. Betting on the result some players, can be the only explanation, they really can't be that shit, naive or lacking in what is basic defending.
The kids are not learning anything but mediocrity from our fullbacks, they have been dire for ages now so why keep repeating mistakes of the past, at least the kids would be in a position to put a challenge in coz they can keep up, and our (not in a) rush goalie couldn't open a bottle of coke with those wrists if it was full of white powder.

How can the kids be any worse, I would rater see commitment and I give a fuck attitude from them and lose, than the embarrassing shite some of our players have served, at least they have consistency their, gutless and fragile.

I agree that nobody that makes the effort to go should be called a twat for leaving early, especially by people who haven't gone to the game. Most normal people would say something like 'I'm surprised they left so early but it's their choice', and not just insulted them. I turned the game off for about ten minutes after the third but a naive belief that we could pull it back made me switch it back on

Leaving early can keep you out of trouble, I've been so mad a couple of times, I could of ended up in jail.

Fair point regarding Clichy just think he is quicker and better than Kolarov

He's just as shit but quicker at being so, zero confidence in him defending and if he gets past the halfway line, he stops and texts his mum. If those two are their because of their experience, give me a naive kid everyday.

Is Mancini out of work? If so bring him in to set the defence up preferably with Joe on the same flight. If he isn't nice to everyone I really couldn't give a fuck....

Wow! 97 pages already, and it's only around 37 hours from the since the final whistle. I don't think there has been one positive comment so far. Well her goes, I going to try and be positive.

We are probably safe from the drop this season. There are at least 4 teams who are shitter, and less consistent than we are (based on current form).
Joking aside; Pep said it would take time to turn this ship around.
The fact that we got off to a flying start raised expectations too highly.
Our squad is starting to get on a bit, but we knew this already.
The Stones/Otamendi partnership needs time to bed in. Just needs a consistent run together.
Vinny isn't too far away from being back, and if he gets a month or so free from injury, it'll go some way to getting us back on track.
We are only 3 great performances away from the Champions League Final (it is not impossible).
We are still in the FA Cup.
We have overturned a big deficit in the Premier League before.

I think even if the unthinkable happens in the next game I will still try and see the positives.

Yes, I may have partaken in a beverage (or two), but we've been here before and we've turned it around.

You stayed until the end did you?
There are no bigger twats than fans who don't go criticising those who do.

Always did yeah and it's even easier to turn off when you didn't travel.

Whts the point of travelling to leave after 20 mins? Wasted the ticket of someone that may have actually supported the side.

A key reason why our defensive headers aren't going far is that we are often running backeards from a high line to head the ball - thus they have less momentum. Profiting from this was a clear part of Leicester's ball over the top tactics.

Ha. The one person Mancini wouldn't bring back is Joe.
