Match Thread Bournemouth v Leicester

[deleted member]

Would be nice not to hoof it or pass it to our own players maybe

 

[Feriol]

Shakespeare is supposed to be a good coach, so why do we not know what to do, where to be, or how to pass?

 

[Lako42]

This is exactly as I expected.

Complete and utter ****ing shit.

2nd to everything, as usual.

Can't pass a football, as usual

Have no style, as usual

Conceding possession all over the pitch, as usual

No creativity, as usual

Vardy on a different pitch to our midfield, as usual

Don't worry though, we'll remember how to play (a bit) once they take the lead.

 

[Brown Nose]

Wow, Bournemouth miss another sitter.

 

[LES Fox]

Without going on too bigger downer. We've a midfield running on fumes, 4 strikers that aren't trusted, a RB that makes you want to look away when receiving the ball and a coach learning the trade - who gives the impression he's bluffing. On the plus side Fuchs is set to conquer the States with those fugly t-shirts.

 

[Polar Bear]

That was good from Maguire to set Vardy away. A glimpse.

There is a massive difference between coaching players and managing players. Our players are quite obviously not being managed.

Our players are mostly not the brightest. They need to be given clear and simple instructions. My imagined team talk from Shakespeare comprises of nothing more than, "Right lads, it's 4-4-2 again today just like you like it. I wish you the best".

 

[popillius]

Has Andy King been sent off without anyone noticing? There seems to be an empty space where he should be every single time Bournemouth advance.

 

[City Fan]

We haven’t got a ****ing clue have we?

 

[sparky79]

As far as I can see see haven't had an attempt on goal of any kind....

 

[Lako42]

That throw sums us up, clueless.

Throw it, hit it back to the halfway line and then twat the ball to nobody.

This is inexcusable bollocks, they haven't got a clue how to do simple things nevermind have an actual plan.

 

[sparky79]

Second half

Schmeichel

Morgan Maguire Fuchs
Albrighton Ndidi King Chilwell
Gray Okazaki
Vardy

Send Slimani or Mahrez on after 60 or 65

 

[Borderfox]

Shakey has to go he really doesn't have a ****ing clue.

 

[tedfoxxx]

Why? Why do this? I don't get what he expects from these players in this system. We are absolutely horrifying away from home. They actually get paid for this. What do they do all week?

Not sure we're any better at home

 

[Lako42]

Ndidi has the ball in the middle with space to run into into and launch something, instead he decides to play a cross field ball to the left back.....****ing marvelous Wilfred.

 

[LES Fox]

As others have noted, Shaky looks like he's mimicking being a manager just copying what's gone before.

Maybe he's thinking of a new setup, something to turn this shit tide... but not yet, it's just too soon. A 3-5-2 will come.. but not The Great Escape sequel.

 

[sparky79]

I think we've had a shot...

 

[Miles Away]

Another game where he has to make changes at half time because it isn't working.

 

[Brown Nose]

What do they do all week?

Throw corner flags at each other. Promote their clothing ranges. Tell Shakey he's a smashing chap. Do videos and TV appearances. Sponsorship work. Eat bits of chicken.

Amazed they have time to turn up for the games to be honest.
