Leicester City 4 - 0 Newcastle United (12/12/2021)


Recommended Posts

Asking for trouble a bit when you’ve got both a CM and CB partnership that can’t defend. 
 

Shades of previous relegation seasons: nowhere near enough goal threat in attack and far, far too easily played through.

 

Howe needs to find the balls to take the captaincy off Lascslles ASAP. He’s just a nonentity at the back.

Is it even worth it, though? There's no way we're staying up, even with 6-7 players in come January. I'm all in on Eddie and almost think it's better to start a rebuild in the championship where we can outspend and change the narrative around this club for the better without the media pressure, heightened expectations, etc. 

agreed. Get a couple of loanees in and then rebuild next summer.

Well that was absolute shit.

We need Fernandes in for Lascelles (or the 3-4-3 with Lascellses, Schar & Fernandes) and Hayden for Willock for next match, and much much higher intensity as a bare minimum if we want to do anything but gifting Liverpool an automatic win.

Worth remembering that before today we'd only lost one match under Howe, like. It's perhaps understandable that he's stuck with Willock, Shelvey et al when the results have been improving a bit and the other options in midfield aren't exactly much more appealing. 

 

Let's see how he reacts to this result.

At least Gini knows what he is walking into come January. Will be like he never left.

 

Oh no, there he goes in the distance running in the opposition direction with everyone else linked. 

 

Tbf Matty Longstaff was always going to be like a new signing anyway.

Shelvey needs out of this team. 

 

Willock in midfield is the key area of concern. That one change with someone even half clued up on how to play that position would see the whole unit function infinitely better.

We need to learn how to shithouse a point against teams , be ugly , bore the cunt off us . 
 

This approach, right now is not what we need. 
 

Our one hope ASM is badly out of form , I’m looking at him and for the first time wondering if he’s worth it against the big teams ?

Scary this about this is that I thought this was our best team, blame Howe all you want, but this team just lacks quality in the key areas. 

 

Whilst that is true, Howe is persisting formations that we just don't have the players to make work.

 

He has made selection errors that have directly cost us points and other than Joelinton's form it's hard to find any positives on the pitch from his management.
