joeyt Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 One of the worst afternoon's I've had to sit through. Leicester didn't have to get out of 2nd gear. Passing was horrific, but it feels like our only tactic is to hope Sissoko can run past someone. Its horrific. Wijnaldum was absolutely shocking. Once Anita got booked he couldn't make a tackle and they exposed him time and time again. Watching Dummett at LB was painful. Looking forward to Leicester getting rid of their North African winger for free because he doesn't track back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 McClaren had two weeks to fix the team and find a solution against high pressing and he failed. The quality is there but we can't make it count. The goal at Bournemouth showed what we couldn't produce today and in large parts two weeks ago: we need to play better in tight spaces when under pressure. Using our widemen better and some better balls to Mitro wouldn't hurt. Nothing to suggest there's any real quality there. Add that to the fact that the players we have are generally a bunch of spineless b@stards and it's clear we're in a spot of bother here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're also a bunch of lazy cunts who for some reason seem to think they're good enough to coast through without putting any effort in. I can accept getting beat, especially off a team as good as Leicester are at the minute, and I can accept playing crap, it happens sometimes. But how can you get behind a bunch of individuals who are happy to openly and obviously display that they really don't give a shit. If they don't care why should we??

ujpest doza Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 They look the real deal too. Fair play. I thought Leicester were deeply average like, nothing special at all. Same here. First half both teams were poor. 2nd half only we were poor. Annoying that Vardy looked marginally offside for the 1st goal as well. None of our players wanted the ball, no one made any runs or tried to get into space to receive a pass, utter shambles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ujpest doza Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Was there a proper shot on goal? The only shot's at goal I can remember were a shot from Cisse that was blocked and a skied well off target effort from Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it was on target. Fucking horrible game to watch hung over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RowZed Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Was it bad that I actually started cheering on Leicester in the second half because we were so sh*t? In years past a result like this would have left me in a bad mood for the rest of the weekend, but I'm actually happy because it exposed how crap we actually are. Terrible owner, useless manager and a group of players who couldn't give a toss about anything to do with the club. All we ask for is a team that tries...

number9shirt Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Leicester are the 6th worst for goals conceded, today was the second cleen sheet of their season, i get that they are on a great run but we were at home to leicester city & we failed to get a single shot on target...

Ronaldo Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Quality ffs. Shit midfield, no goals up front, abject in central defence and at full back, goalkeeper fucking useless.

midds Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 If I still gave a shit I'd be furious about today. As it happens I can't even summon up the energy to even get mildly irritated any longer, the losses blend into one, resigned shoulder shrug. It was exactly the same after the win at Bournemouth too ftr. They're not worth getting annoyed about any more, what happens will happen and I'll start to get enthused again once the cunt who owns us moves on. The club's in a coma and I'll visit every now and again but ultimately I'm waiting for it to wake again, could be another decade or so imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Maclaren; "Football kicks you right where it hurts. Today was a setback, but not a typical performance - very disappointing and we need more consistency. Full credit to Leicester - no excuses for today. We were poor today. Only thing we can do is get back to work on Monday and work hard to put it right. Bournemouth result may have masked today's performance. International break didn't come at a good time. Understand's the fans frustrations." Lowes trying to put a positive spin on it, citing Leicester's example of how things can turn around. Maclaren unsurprisingly agrees with him! Sounds like a guy who hasn't got a clue how to turn it around. Keegan would have had steam coming out of his ears if one of his sides had played like that.

nufc4eva Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I am at the point where I hate football. I watch other teams and they try but we look so shit and can't even string a few passes together. Other teams are stronger, faster, quicker to react, know the basics, are organised, have a shape, have tactics and play as a team. We are none of this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
