Post Match Leicester 0 Arsenal 2

[Jeff]

Defended well for most of the game... but we knew it wouldn't last 90 minutes.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

Could we take the record for least clean sheets in a premier league season?

 

[Miles Away]

Faes dreadful, yet again.

Kristiansen not up to the required standards either.

I just don’t think I can keep watching this side.

Sack the board.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

There is - quite literally - no reason to be optimistic about this football club currently.

That’s right. There are no signs of life whatsoever.

Haven't we lost the most games in a row at home without scoring, ever or summit like that

 

[Rock Fox]

For 80 minutes we looked pretty well organised and had a couple of half chances
But then, inevitably ... normal service resumed

The Foxes are on a run of four successive home league defeats without scoring. Only three sides have ever lost five in a row in the same top-flight season whilst failing to score: Sheffield Wednesday in 1919-20, Birmingham City in 1921-22 and Norwich City in 2019-20.

Tied for the record…for now.

 

[Payne74]

Leicester desperately needed a striker this season and they spent £20 million on Skipp...

 

[DillyDing22]

Disagree entirely.

That was an improved performance.

At this stage, against title challenges, I’m going to take some optimism.

Much better fight all over the pitch. Defence was organised and dealt with a lot of Arsenal possession really comfortably. We also looked a bit more creative going forward, loved seeing us commit more men into the attack and look forward way more often than recent games.

Result was shit, but that was not a doom and gloom performance.

3 points v Brentford on Friday and might just be back in our hands.

Lucky old Brentford they can push Leicester over the line for the record.

 

[Miles Away]

When you get a chance, watch Kristiansen on the second goal.

Did you witness Brentford destroying Leicester earlier in the season ? I wouldn't bet on Leicester gaining another point for the rest of the season

 

[big_mac4824]

we are playing every game with 9 players, our wingers are totally inept. We cannot press the opposition high up the pitch because yet again Ayew and BDR will not do the hard yards, this means Ndidi and Soumare are swamped in the middle.

As for our defence it is inevitable that Faes will gift a goal. the second goal was hillarious, Christianson ran 20m looking directly at the football and then looked 3 times at the Arsenal scorer and still did not think it would be a good idea to go and mark him.

We are going to lose every game this season because 90 percent of the squad is championship standard.

RvN must now roll the dice and look to blooding youngsters for next season. He had no options on his bench to change the game, we need to be more direct with our attacking play and provide more crosses.

Next game please.

Legit bone idol. Sees the Arsenal guy in acres of space ahead of him - doesnt even attempt to try and close him down. Piss poor excuse for a LB.

You need to score a goal to get 3 points. And Brentford will have at least one fit striker I would expect, so our defence will likely not look so good.

It won’t be long until Wolves pull away. We all know which three teams are now going down. That’s not me being negative, it’s me being realistic.

Can’t keep a clean sheet. Midfield is not very good defensively or creatively. Hardly ever score a goal. Apart from that we’re okay.

Completely agree. We should have kept Alves for this exact reason.

He’s ****ing awful. Just ineptitudes all over the pitch and around the club.

Thomas should play. No, he’s not very good either. But based on the game at Villa and Old Trafford, he is much less of a liability.
