Match Thread Brighton v Leicester

[fitz]

Absolutely pathetic all round. Compare how they press when we do our triangle passing in our own box vs our pressing when they walk from box to the half way line. The set up is ****ing ridiculous and the tactic to be as slow as possible just doesn't work.

 

[MerseyFox]

What a lot of crap - almost like these players have never seen each other before

 

[SilverFox]

Rodgers won’t change anything. Still ****ing off.

 

[sparky79]

Got to be 2 subs.

 

[popillius]

Claudan Pueldgers.

Amartey and Vardy pretty much a waste of being on the pitch.

Vardy still looks way off it fitness/speed wise - normally he would have got away from that defender for Nachos through ball and a bit later White jogged away from him pretty easily with the ball as Vardy was chasing back.

I can’t believe I’ve sat watching this for 45 minutes. One of those games you just look at, safe in the knowledge that nothing interesting or good is going to happen.

I’m really, really disappointed. For a multitude of reason it’s becoming clear that this season will end in a similar way to the last one. I can’t be arsed to berate the manager or the players, just gutted that it’s slipping away again and they seem powerless to stop it.

 

[MerseyFox]

The players seem to have no idea what system they are playing.

 

[Rock Fox]

WTF was that? Dreadful in every aspect of our play so far - and for crying out loud - get the ball forward

 

[bocadillo]

We're now down to 5th if teams below us win their games in hand.

I am fairly relaxed about this. We've not been good but we will be fine second half. Brendan will make the necessary tweaks and we will win the game.

We have to remember what we are missing and what we've been through. It's inevitable that we won't have the normal flow in our play.

6th

The players seem to have no idea what system they are playing.

Or what game

Earn your coin Brendan. This needs reshaping and turning around. Amartey off for starters, thank him for his efforts and call time, he's never going to make it.

Is anyone really surprised? Just take a step back and look at how decimated we are.

6th

When we could have gone 2nd

 

[Miles Away]

Tavares has something about him.

So far this is an abomination.

 

[bocadillo]

6th

My mistake

One shot all half and that took us 36 mins to muster... Brighton have also had one disallowed and hit the post. It has been shocking. Cannot fathom the back three approach when we aren't playing any wide midfielders. They are looking totally exposed. Fofana has just come back, Soyuncu has been utter dogshit since he came back from his bad injury and Daniel Amartey is pretty shite even on a good day. Recipe for disaster. Tielemans looks more and more flogged after each passing minute..

 

[MerseyFox]

Our midfield is too ineffective to have Vardy and Iheanacho both doing nothing up front.
