Leicester v City post match

Confidence is shot. Mommentum is with Spuds and the Dippers. The reason they are top is they`ve been winning when playing poorly. They are now hitting form and battering opponents. Possibly the worst time of the year to drop off as there`s little time to regroup.
We need a win, any sort of win at Soton or we`ll be looking over our shoulders and not at the teams above us. Time for Pep to earn his corn.

The players need to earn their corn more like.

We all know we are better than what we are seeing at present, but something is definitely amiss.

Fernandinho, D. Silva and De Bruyne are big misses and Walkers drop in standards has hit us hard.

We have nothing to lose by putting Foden in the side for the next match and is there a full back in the club we could use, however young?

Aguero will come good he has had these spells in the past and needs a better service than he has been getting recently.

Pep must put out his strongest available team at Southampton, we desperately need a win.

He fluffed his lines twice today when set up perfectly. Its about getting him back up to speed not the service.
 
We've become far too predictable. The build ups are too slow, giving the opposition time to get all their men back behind the ball, and our wingers are being cancelled out. Against Palace all we did was lob crosses into the box, but we've got no forward players who can head a ball. Where's Dzeko when you need him!, and when we do get a chance we're not clinical enough.
We are playing too many players out of position due to lack of cover, Delph has cost us a lot of goals this year, and Fernandinho absence is costing us dear. I'd like to see Zinchenko given a chance in his correct position, forward midfield. I hate to agree with a Rio F, but Walker is a liability, he cost the FA cup last season against Wigan.
It looks like the League's over, I can't see Liverpool dropping seven points and us not dropping anymore. Let's hope we can get all the players fit again and free from injury, so we can win the Champions League, FA & League cups.
 
Raheem needs David to play the ball for him to do what he's good at - running hard for the ball towards the goal line or through a gap in the middle without any time to hesitate or think about what to do. When he stops, turns and flicks it to the side, you know he's going to lose possession. Sergio just had a bad day by his monumental standards.

Overall, it's as though we've forgotten how to play quick, sharp, hard, low stabbing passes. Instead, we're hitting the ball behind our players, three feet off the ground, curling and spinning and when under pressure, slicing it away. Suddenly, Kevin apart, we can no longer drill a shot.

Leicester did their best to hand the game to us with some woeful balls to our players in their half. We seemed bereft of ideas when we were gifted the ball in those situations.

David's world class covers for the loss of Kevin, but no-one covers for the loss of David. Likewise, without Fernandinho we look so light.
 
We have 5 world class players

Kdb, Silva,fernie,ederson,kun
With the exception of ederson all been injured
