Leicester v City post match

[Burtonblue]

No of course not but they’re teams we should be beating with the players in our squad. You can’t tell me Pep didn’t take Palace especially lightly on Saturday and got his just deserts - they couldn’t even score against Cardiff today and yet they got 3 against us. I really don’t know where it went wrong but boy has it, I’m absolutely gutted.

The palace game was a one off....in complete control until a crap bit of defensive work by Walker followed by a worldie and another bit of brain death by supposidly the best right back in England(not!)
It happens in football that sometimes you don’t get what you deserve. It doesn’t mean the team is a lost cause.
These two games will serve as a kick up the arse and I expect we will see a big reaction v Shampton. We are definitely better than what we have shown in the last week.

Its gone best play to win cups and CL but with this defence Carabao is only realistic chance of a trophy

We have to get past Burton first :)

Kyle Walker, John Stones and Nico Otamendi have not yet appeared in the Hague for the crimes against humanity they committed on Saturday before Fabian Delph has tried to wipe out a bunch of, admittedly, sour faced Bluemooners whose sense of entitlement would embarrass many at OT. Delph was at fault today but he isn't a criminal; in fact he's an honest and very decent guy doing his best out of position because Mendy is injured. Mendy is actually not a drama quuen or "sick note" but a professional who's unlucky enough to have suffered a second serious injury in two seasons. KdB made his first start of the PL season and Danilo only his second and Sergio and David returned from injury. None of them had their finest game but I'm sure that if we try hard enough we might be able to think of a reason. Ferna is still injured and we "only" had Gundogan in that position because Pep didn't hold Jorginho with a gun to the head until he agreed to sign. In addition to those who usually act as convenient scapegoats we have a number of players who are not in their best form, Bernardo being one of them at the moment and Raheem wasn't at his best today. The result is that our passing was not as crisp as usual and went astray more than a little, we could not play those balls in the inside forward channels to get Leroy or Raheem behind them and we certainly never had our full backs overlapping, which was such a part of our game last season.

So, the team lost for the third time in four games and we are now down to third. This is disappointing but what is ridiculously childish is the reaction of some of our fair weather fans who react like spoilt brats and go on as though the players had lost deliberately just to insult them personally. Then they make the discovery that Pep is to "blame" as well, and that we are a mid-table team at best! The team is out of form, it isn't playing well and I don't know when we'll get back to normal but we will. If the cost of two poor games is that someone else wins the title we'll have to accept that they deserve it.

Lol, been a blue since birth, first attended Maine road 1977 sat on white wall,.so me getting pissed off at us getting beat makes sound a rag

Mrs Ewing asked an hour ago if I was upset. No, I said. I'm not upset. i'm bloody annoyed at the hand we keep getting dealt. Yellow-red cards go straight to red, once in a season goals become twice in a season goals, Salah turning football into a floor exercise, complete with acrobatic tumbling, and the fuckin' BBC apparatchiks screeching their fuckin' lungs out with every goal we concede!

I'm gonna watch Napoli!

3 games lost
Not good
But it's not the end
Remember when a trip to Wembley was full members cup
We are still in all competitions

 

[wattle]

Any other oldies feeling strangely comforted now that we’re shit again? League is gone now I recon. All go for a cup or 2. Hopefully the dippers will calm down a bit before the end of the season now that they’re going to win something

 

[manimanc]

No mate, would have felt better with 3 points, but maybe I did get 3 points today on here as apparently me not being best pleased with out last 2 defeats makes me a rag

Rag.

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.

On Agüero, you can not have two wingers hugging the touchline and Agüero in the middle foraging for scraps. Too easily crowded out.

Gave up after the first sentence. If you have high standards and expectations, you get labelled entitled. If you have low standards and expectations, you’re still in a York away mindset. Catch 22.
