Match Thread Arsenal v Leicester

[glyn]

We’re just not even trying to compete in this one are we.

 

[popillius]

Listening on 5 live and they seem to be saying “Leicester give the ball away” every minute.

Yes we’re going to lose but we need to do the basics.

We are completely ****ing hopeless. Absolutely zero plan whatsoever.

So, no surprises really.

No.

 

[popillius]

The referee really is a ****ing prick.

Referee an absolute homer

 

[Brown Nose]

The referee really is a ****ing prick.

It's the same twat we had at Ipswich on Boxing Day.

Referee an absolute homer

Oi!

 

[londonfox]

The tactical setup hangs out fullbacks out to dry. Justin, in particular, is so often too high or too wide and it’s so easy for the opposition to play in behind him.

 

[OzzieFox]

Nothing conspiratorial about this. This referree just ****ing hates Leicester.

 

[Micky]

It's really not a surprise though. We are miles behind them in our resources.

Exactly. It's the same every single game. Justin is getting overrun and Kristiansen just isn't good enough. We are so easy to play against.

 

[FOX Franks]

Just left work. Looks like the usual story?

 

[MerseyFox]

A real lack of aggression or even attempt at pressing. So painfully passive.

Referee fancies homer

 

[popillius]

It's really not a surprise though. We are miles behind them in our resources.

The fact we are behind isn't a surprise.

The fact we cannot pass a football, cannot change our tactics to stop Arsenal exploiting our FBs every five seconds or the fact we are not interested at all in trying to hold on to possession of the ball, even from our own goal kicks, throw ins or free kicks is of our own making.

It's a pathetic performance.

 

[Billyjof]

Only thing good about this performance, bizarrely still 1-0.

 

[Brown Nose]

2-0

 

[homer]

****'s sake

 

[camberwell fox]

Game over

 

[Micky]

This is so boring. Incredibly dull.
