Match Thread | Leicester vs Man City (13/12/14)

I know he was a free transfer, but any chance of a refund on Sagna? He doesn't do anything.

Not much of a performance so far, far too narrow, not moving the ball quickly enough and too many players wanting to come deep and get the ball. Good of Fat Frank to emerge from hiding to score the opener, but I still think Navas should come on for him to provide some width down the right, as Sagna is never going to offer anything.

Pleased with Pozo, he's held it up well and linked nicely with the other players. Good movement on the goal as well to drag the other CB to the far post, leaving Lampard open in the middle. Very neat and tidy player and has shown some surprising strength on a couple of occasions. Mangala MOTM so far though, absolutely bossing it.

More of the same please.
We soaked up their bluster and are really looking much better.
Cut the little mistakes at the back though please chaps.

Subdued first half but the team got better as the game went on. Lampard, as a midfielder, has to have to best goal scoring instincts in the history of the premier league. Pozo was getting more and more involved as well.

I expect a better showing in the second half but as far as I am concerned, this christmas period is 'get the job done' period. Get the three points and that is all that matters. Cannot afford to drop any from now to January.

Sagna is a good player but is having a very hard time in settling at City. He will be a very useful player for us.

where is jovetic?

still injured....

somebody said earlier he was made of quavers... hilarious!! (if you have quavers in Pakistan)

I'd keep Frank on as long as possible for his goal threat & the fact he scores....leicester have fought very hard as they did against Livrepool at home recently so that is no surprise, they actually don't look like the sort of side you could put 6 past.
Got to keep working hard in the 2nd half, get a second and see things out. Need to get through this period of rotten luck with our strikers and still be well in touch.

where is jovetic?

He can't make it a full 90 without getting injured. Can't see the City hierarchy tolerating another season of him being unavailable 70% of the time.

Just wish the other s would trust Pozo more he's getting in some good positions
