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

Rodri is toilet and I can't believe we face another season this reliant on him.

People will focus on Ake's error, but miss the fact that Rodri received the ball in space with an opportunity to get his head up and be positive to put us on the counter. Options all around him. Instead, he takes a touch with his head down, turns his back on everyone and plays a hopeless backpass to Ake, who was pointing up the pitch and had a man on him. I've watched it back and even Dias was pointing up the pitch when Rodri played that ball. Then what happened happened.

Rodri is absolute gash and this is a persistent trend with him. He isn't good enough. This should be a priority postion for us to strengthen, just as much as upfront for me.

I'm not a fan of him to be honest think I'd rather have Javi Garcia back.

I went to the Leicester away game boxing day 2 years ago.
I was appaled by the drugs and the general behaviour of fans. It really shocked me

I was at that game also, that’s when a bloke fell down the stairs and smashed his skull

Dias, Steffen and Grealish were top, Edozie second half was good. Not much else on anyone else

Palmer!?

I enjoyed the trip to Wembley today for the most part. Hate losing, especially by conceding a goal in that way, but, given the list of players missing or not fit enough to start the game, far more concerned about how we do on our next rip to London.

A new striker would obviously help matters but getting our full squad match fit and available as quickly as possible is essential. For now, damage limitation is the order of the day.

Fck the game. Just found my new watering hole in London.

This forum has a large proportion of happy clappers ready to jump on anything they see as negativity.
I get grief all the time but it's water off a duck's back for me.
Keep lurking and comment when you want - While it may seem to be a heinous crime on this forum, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Just imagine that many of the happy clappers probably go to sleep at night in single beds, under City duvets tucked in by a carer. It makes reading their comments quite amusing.

Aye and the forum has got more than its share of negative whinging arseholes as well.

Take your pick.

Can someone explain the advantage process to me on the penalty, the player goes 1v1 and has his on target shot saved. If it goes in that's a goal, but if he saves it or he misses it's a penalty? Surely he has the opportunity it should be play on. If this was outside the box and the player shot and missed they wouldn't go back for a freekick

 

[smallsteve]

Proper striker on the pitch and we’re 2 or 3 up before we gift them the goal

we need to get Kane. It makes or breaks our season

Can you imagine how many penalties we are going to get each week with Raz and Jack on top form!? No striker needed, but that LB is a real worry!

Meh! Twas a bit shite

Pep spent £62.6 Million on him for a reason.
