Leicester (H) Post-Match Thread

You just need to take the chances that will undoubtedly come your way against Liverpool. This season, I've noticed that even the likes of Norwich creating a good number of straightforward chances against 'em. Don't know why but a lot of strikers lose the ability to kick the ball straight when the Liverpool goal opens up before them. They don't dominate significantly in open play, but rely on strikers taking the half chances late on.

We are quite reliant on Vardy as many will be aware. Madders can strike a ball too, but I’m never confident with our wide men (Barnes/Perez) to be composed when In front of goal.

We need to stifle not just their attack but TAA & Robertson bombarding down the wings. Something we couldn’t handle at yours, with your quality.

hopefully we will learn our lesson.
 
Not just a ballet teacher , didnt Allison arrange for some soft porn star to be in the team bath with the players for a paper ???.....cant remember her I was just a shy teenager ;)
It was Fiona Richmond, but not at our place - it's when he was in charge at Palace.

Oh right but I do remember a picture of the City players in the 70's about 73/74ish being pictured in a national newspaper in the team bath , I thought it was under Allison, thought it was with fiona Redmond...

They are basically a modern day Wimbledon. Hoof the ball forward and hope for some individual brilliance or a dive. Or give to the full backs to either hoof a long diagonal or cross a ball into the box. Block of their full backs and you should be ok as your defence can cope just about with the hoof. You then need to nick the ball of them and send Steptoe into the channels in the space vacated. He either scores or dives. Most of the league wants you to take something from the game, just unlucky that the powers that be and VAR don’t.

That's a bit extreme - they are much more skillful and less 1-dimensional than Wimbledon. But the over-the-top tactic could potentially hurt the scousers. Remember a couple of seasons ago, the Scum did them with exactly that tactic.

the key is their full backs and making sure we do to them what you did to us. We have a good record against them at ours, last season was the first loss at home against them in a while.
