Post Match Leicester 0 Arsenal 2

We don't deserve good luck because we don't work hard enough.

Our pressing / tracking / sprinting is appalling. Basics of the game any side should be able to do.

We've lost loads of games under RvN because we haven't fought. We've faced several opponents (Arsenal included) who were woefully short of their best but they didn't need to get out of second gear to win.

They are not capable as they are not fit enough to do it.

What's the old saying - "The harder I work, the luckier I get"?

And I agree that we don't do enough to deserve luck. Whether we deserved it or not at the start of the season, we had it. All I'm saying is that we've had precious little of it since.

Gary Player says luck is the residue of effort (alongside other things)

I think that’s fair. To be lucky you have to be in the right place. Being in the right place takes effort

Totally agree.

I’m a firm believer that you create your own ‘luck’. It arises when preparation meets opportunity.

If we’re not doing the fundamentals right, we’re never going to get it.

Welcome back @City Fan
Genuine question for you: did AI help you form the phrase "It arises when preparation meets opportunity."? Just doesn't sound like something you'd usually say.

I read it once and it resonated and stayed with me

I thought this was one of our better performances in terms of overall effort.

Just seems that concentrating for 90 minutes is beyond some of the players.

Read it where? From an AI response or some original literature? If the latter, what? I'm genuinely interested.

If only there was some way to look up something like that. Some kind of engine that searches for things.

I'll just make something up...

"Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity” is a quote attributed to the Roman philosopher Seneca.

Proper preparation prevents piss poor performance.

As dictated to Boc.

100% original.

Seeing as you've been very careful in dodging my original question, I can only assume you asked AI (or a search engine) to give you a good quote on how to eloquently describe luck, and chose to use the words of Seneca. And (if I'm correct on my assumption) that's fine, I'd just prefer it if people could be open about it.

I'm feeling there in an upwards trend of posters on here copying and pasting AI responses in to their own replies, and whilst that's obviously going to be a trend across all platforms where people "write" replies, it doesn't sit particularly well with me. It dilutes the forum's originality.

I used AI to help form that long and irreverent story about how Cooper got the LCFC job but I think that was very obviously AI generated so I didn't feel the need to mention that it was AI assisted content (if you can call it that).

This isn't a personal dig at you by the way @City Fan, so please don't take it that way.

There are many quotes in my head that I’ve previously read and held on to. I probably read this one when reading about imposter syndrome as I used to feel my career was purely down to luck. And reading about it made me realise that there probably has been elements of luck (i.e. opportunity), but with a foundation of a strong worth ethic (I.e. preparation).

Anyway, this thread has become weird.

I highly doubt that is happening.

Firstly, what would be the point? I get it for assignments etc, but makes it completely pointless on here.

And secondly, a lot of posters on here can’t even manage to use their phones as a season ticket, never mind use AI!
