Leicester (N) - Community Shield | Post-Match Thread

[Pingu the Penguin]

With all due respect, you are in no position to tell the best manager in the world how to pick a team and play football. This insistence that Pep should listen to us just comes across as disrespect considering the success he's brought us and the best football we will ever witness.

Onto the game - rusty and sloppy which should be expected considering who we have available and how much they've played against a team that will probably line up that way for most of the season. Steffen I thought was good as was Ake, I think its looking like it'll be a bit of a rough few weeks until the regulars are put back in and get fit.

Enjoy your weekend blues.

Yea and we have a tough start too

Soon as I saw that team I knew we were fucked. We need to massively improve next week. Shocking start to the season

I agree that when we saw the respective line ups, we looked doomed before a ball was kicked, but it never panned out that way. Against a very strong Leicester team, I thought we did really well and could have won it if we took the chances created.

Good run out for those likely to be featuring in the games ahead and a great experience for the young uns.

Toothless.
Front 3 may gave well not being on 1st half.
Better 2nd half but still hardly worked the keeper.
Every time we are under strength we get the same performance

You nailed it with under strength

 

[Airbags Optional]

same issue that fucked us in the CL final, no forward, nothing happening up front. Mahrez waste of space and waste of a place.

Oh dear for the last part, in fact of dear for the whole post

Good to see some football in front of fans before season kicks off thats all today was about.

The Community Shield is just a shit looking wheel trim that's not worth getting arsed about.

Exactly the sort of thing a bitter Rag and Scouser would say after losing it.

It’s a lovely piece of silverware, every single club in Europe has it (or their equivalent) in their honours lists, and managers like Pep always say it’s a proper trophy.

I’ll be over it by 21:00 tonight, but I’m very disappointed in losing.

Have to say though if all season every match we play we have commentators coming out with all this negative shite again be no sound on for all games

Did you hear the **** gleefully start going on about our League Start in anticipation..

I have tge radio on and the tele on zero vol. The timing is out by a few secs but It is more bearable than the shitestains begging for us to lose.

What a load of shite some of you arses spout, we have half the squad missing and the other half just back, FFS grow up

Mahrez looks good against Blackpool but too often ordinary against any decent opponents.
