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

[BLUEMATT23]

We've been playing most of the last 2 seasons with no striker.
We need 1 asap

 

[BeerIsTheBest]

New generation.

As a FOC I'm enjoying the ride.

Mr Legacy from Legacy Close. I live next door.

 

[Gazza]

Also managed to slip in a few rag references to years they won the Cs

I'm old enough to remember when they used to qualify for it.

What happened before the game, missed the pre match, pundits on Itv seem to be alluding to fan trouble?

 

[lazerblue]

Apparently Leicester are serial trophy winners now ffs!

We'll get Kane

 

[Damanino]

From Mahrez I expect a full hard start almost on top form given he had a long nice break, no international games, being back early for pre season.

He is someone who has to lead the team and ply about 100 times better in the first 4-5 PL games than today.

also dont just let Bernardo go until last days of the window, we will need him vs Spurs and Norwich maybe Arsenal too on the 28th given Foden, KDB, Sterling needs time to get up to speed and c ome bac from injury.

 

[Luke The Blue]

We did well considering our starting 11. We need a striker though. Torres missing again.

 

[Blue and still suffering]

Not again? Need this lad to step up this season.

He only came back into training last Monday

 

[bluealf]

Was pretty much our carling cup team v their strongest 11.

Some whoppers on here

I need to bring spell check into the discussion here?

Kelchi - 'It was a foul, but the referee played on...'

Hmm... That stinks.

Exactly, what is the point of Steffen saving it if it gets called back

Fuckin joke decision that.

Just book Ake or even a Red but not a fucking penalty unless the ref blows straight away.

Fucking cheating and we wouldn't get that double decision, no way.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Half a yard short of pace all over the pitch. Nothing to see really.

Ineachoo is a very humble, nice guy. Hope he does well for them this term.

Seemed like he thought he perhaps should have been given the penalty because the referee clearly played on.

 

[stan bowles]

Hopefully this just shows the management that we cant let Laporte go and only have Ake as back up.

and Mendy just keeps confirming his uselessness.

Bollocks comment about Mendy

 

[mosssideblue]

Pep was going through him at the final whistle.

Too late then

Haha real overacting from the media.. They are showing they can punch above their weight. We played a bunch of kids with some first team players.

Calm down

Ferran Torres did a good impression of the invisible man.

He just doesn't get involved in games, maybe he's one of them not happy at City who knows. Granted he got fuck all supply tonight, but needs to work a lot harder

 

[Revolver]

Considering the team we put out and the fact that it was a strong Leicester team I thought we did okay. We played all the decent football from 30 mins on and made them look very ordinary . The concern though is if we lose Bernardo and Jesus (May be a big if ) we look a bit light if we don’t sign a striker I know he is young and talented but I don’t think Torres is the answer. In too many games he’s anonymous.

 

[ysmsa]

Ferran Torres did a good impression of the invisible man.

He's had plenty of practice.

I just dont see a top player, invisible or not.

 

[bert38]

Agreed - I really want him to do well but that performance was woeful - did he touch the ball in the first half? Ben Knight looked a lot more lively after he came on. Ferran really is a conundrum

Or maybe he needs a pre season?

 

[bluemoon32]

Lots of gnashing of teeth considering it's just a glorified friendly & we were missing important players
