Post Match Leicester 3 Brighton 0

Must admit, I love hearing Maddison talk post-match

Yep - good explanation of Brendan stepping in to switch the formation to a back four and swap Albrighton and Justin

Brave move from Rodgers, and changed the game. Boom

Yep, the man knows what he's doing.

Maybe Brendan reads this forum for pro tips.

Yep, although some swore blind we didn’t.

So what was the formation after the switch and who played where? I honestly couldn't see it.

Really refreshing to hear someone who you can tell just loves playing football.

Also speaks really well for a footballer too with quite a refreshing honesty.

4-2-3-1

Justin and Fuchs at full back.

Ndidi and Tielemans as the two in front of the back four.

Albrighton, Maddison and Perez as the three.

BN moved up front to smarmy git, whilst City Fan moved right back into a defensive line

Rest of us had a Pot Noodle and a wank

 

[M17TT C]

So Ted Bodgers does one over on the amazing Brian Potter.......

Who'd have thought it!!

I had a wank into a pot noodle.

Mrs Jeff wasn't happy, she was eating it at the time.

Too far Jeff

 

[Skitzo]

congratulations to Brendan he saw a tactical weakness and changed it early enough that it had a chance to work, after that we were superb

Kasper

Justin Fofana Evans Fuchs

Ndidi Tielemans

Perez Maddison Albrighton

Vardy​

 

[Feriol]

Showed our class in the first half, saved our legs in the second. Perfect

 

[give_us_a_wave]

Bastard.

My pre match comment was "Lets put 3 without reply past these overplaying ****s"

Didn't bet it :-(

I'll have to have a drink now to help get over it.

Right, will all the anti back ‘5’ brigade now realise that it is no such thing. It allows Justin, who was sensational and Albrighton, who was excellent, to play high up the pitch. Both spent most of the game further forward than the midfield.
A back 4 would simply suppress both of them into their own half.
Long life the back 5!!

You do realise we changed from a back 5 to a back 4 after 20-25 mins don’t you...?

A back 4 didn’t suppress both of our fullbacks (Justin and Fuchs) into their own half, just as it didn’t with Ricardo and Chilwell last season...

Mate, we changed to a back four after 25 minutes because it wasn’t working

Then we were brilliant

I disagree.
Fofana, Evans and Fuchs stayed across the back which allowed Albrighton and Justin to play in their half.

No, that didn’t actually happen
