Was this a surprise?

It certainly wasn't a surprise to me! Our defence wasn't going to be able to handle the pressure and pace of Leicester. Get Sagna at CB and Clichy at LB until the end season. Stop fucking rotating a piss poor defence.
 
No not that we lost but it was a surprise the gulf in class that was seen today. It will have the Sheikh furious and Pep angered that Pellegrini let it out of the bag.
 
No. I went from expecting to win games like this to praying we get something, anything out of them a long time ago.

Shame really as I was getting used to this expecting to win lark - yeah I know very raggish :)

Anyway here's hoping we get that winning feeling back with Pep.
 
How many real top-notch performances have we put in this season in the PL? Over the full 90 minutes? Precious few. Even the chasing we gave Newcastle, we were poor for nearly all the first half, until we had a freakish 20 minute spell. I'm extremely disappointed tonight (just as well I don't have a cat to kick), but surprised? I'd have to say, not really.
 
It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who's been watching us all season. But we do hand teams a lot on a plate - I mean did Pellegrini think about the implications of having Demichelis up against Vardy? All Vardy had to do was sit on his shoulder, wait for the ball over the top then leave him for dead. Surely, having played Sagna at CB last week the thought might have occurred to him to keep him there.
 
A 35 year old CB and an average LB against the two form players in the league.

No it wasn't a surprise
 
Today could and should of been more for them we've been poor to often this season so to most of us it was no suprise! The worst thing to take is the lack of desire for so many of our players

I can think of about 4 games were we've looked like a quality side, just 4.
 
Was definitely on the cards , Aguero's goals and some last minute winners have papered over the cracks , really disappointed to see two stalwarts like Merlin and Yaya so out of form , would like to think Pep's arrival will invigorate Merlin but Yaya is never going to be the same player , our general lack of leadership and team spirit has cost us dear this season , maybe the quadruple is not on now :)
