Match Thread Leicester v Arsenal

[TornadoShaunUK]

Well we certainly improved but that first 20 mins or so was an absolute horror show. Personally I think Thomas has been ****ing crap, Soumare not much better. All in all even after we'd picked up and realised we were in a game, it was still all a bit pedestrian.

 

[TommyK]

I think BR changed it slightly after 25 mins. With Youri pushing further up the pitch.

 

[popillius]

Leave Evans back and play a front 9. It really won't make any difference to our defending.

It also seems that Soumare is pre-programmed to stop entirely or turn to face his own goal every single time he gets the ball.

 

[Rock Fox]

Is any one sure it wasn't the LCFC players who had the stomach bug during the week? - Our backs / mid field crapping themselves every time Arsenal get the ball.

Good save by Ramsadale -Now it will be Kasper that has the sun in his eyes 2nd half - expect further goals from Arsenal

 

[homer]

Thomas, Castagne, Amartey, Soyuncu

All complete ****ing shite

Change the players and system FFS

I expect a minimum of two subs at half time or Rodgers can **** off

 

[big_mac4824]

Thomas and Soyuncu are being overrun because Maddison will not track back. Soumare is having to cover so much ground to try and make up the distance. We are not pressing them at all the sooner JJ and Ricardo are available the better.
There is no tempo to our play and it is as if they do not give a shit!

I feel a bit sad having watched that first half. Downright miserable.

 

[TommyK]

Did the BT presenter just say Kasper has Twitted at half time?!?! What the actual **** is going on in that dressing room!

 

[londonfox]

Thomas and Maddison off for Lookman and Barnes. 4-2-4 and give it a ****ing go.

Twitted? TWITTED?

No, he hasn’t

 

[Miles Away]

So Barnes and Lookman for Nacho and Amartey.

 

[Miles Away]

Maddison back to being a mopey sad sack today.

 

[TommyK]

Better.

 

[SilverFox]

Shite. Even I can’t jinx this.

 

[popillius]

Maddison back to being a mopey sad sack today.

He's been terrific in this second half. Everything good is going through him

 

[popillius]

Shite. Even I can’t jinx this.

You were watching the first twenty weren't you?

**** sake, Jonah.

 

[glyn]

He's been terrific in this second half. Everything good is going through him

Lookman and Barnes have also helped.

 

[Jeff]

We're leading 1.31-0.35 on xG

 

[popillius]

Lookman and Barnes have also helped.

I agree. But that doesn't take away from how hard he's worked to make things happen in the second. Especially having been mostly useless in the first.
