Hardly fecking 'Ringing the Changes' is it?
Maybury left back again...bad idea.

In some ways I tend to agree with CL, yes saturday was a bad, bad day at the office but overall the performances so far from these players have been fairly decent so we shouldnt panic over one bad performance, and maybe after a right bollocking from CL they feel they owe the manager and supporters a real performance. I find it quite refreshing that CL is prepared to stick by his squad and give them the opportunity to put it right and prove the doubters wrong.

My only concern would be the effects of two games so close together and the whether with the majority of players starting in both that we are not too jaded.

Fair enough I suppose but why come on The Radio after the match on Saturday saying there will be changes and people will get their chance in the next match only to make two changes one of which is enforced.

I know what you are saying, and it does seem a little strange, unless CL wanted to put the frightners on a few. At the end of the day if this is our strongest and best side then thats what we should pick.

 

[highland fox]

I think it all shows the worrying lack of depth in the Squad and at the end of the day CL does not have many if any options

I'd expected Maybury to go back to RB, with Sheehan or Gilbert coming in, and I didn't expect Momo to play.. Other than that, no suprise. Not really much we CAN change at the minute.


Come on City, let's ****in' stuff 'em!

 

[PFKAKTF FOX]

Did anybody hear the interview with Alan Maybury, sounds like the players got a real rollocking, and it sounds like the players have been given a chance to put things right. I expect us to come out and give a real performance today.

Both enforced really since no one could expect Dublin to play twice in 48 hours.

As mentioned above, CL has next to no options that don't involve bringing in fringe players with no track record or playing Kisnorbo who is obviously not yet match fit.

As CL stated over the weekend, expectations from Leicester fans are always going to be high - but the budget gets lower. IMO the squad is not yet viable. This is not to blame CL -his is a very difficult legacy arising from past blunders and the devastating effects of relegation.

Good post Redditch, very realistic and honest assessment.

Just heard CL's interview, very honest, no excuses given which is refreshing, I was very pleased to hear he was disappointed with our passing on saturday which at least means we dont appear to be moving back towards Hoof Ball.

 

[PFKAKTF FOX]

Come on boys ...lets get the season back on track today.

 

[Graz]

We're underway! Let's go Leicester! ****ing stick it to Peter Taylor!

 

[Graz]

Corner already, come on Leicester! Let's hope for better delivery today and we can actually make the most of these corners!

 

[Ox Fox]

Afternoon, am I hearing things or is Sylla playing again?

 

[PFKAKTF FOX]

Doesnt sound too bad a start. Although the one corner we have had seemed to be shite again.

[PFKAKTF FOX]

Not too bad we have done ok but havent really got the passing game going yet. Still dont sound convincing at the back.
