Post Match Leicester 0 Millwall 3

[PEN3]

Naughton, Yakubu, Bamba, Schmeichel, Nugent, Konchesky, Peltier, Fernandes, Davies, Cunningham, Mee...

I think any other manager who had the financial backing that Sven has had could have signed the above players. I don't think it has anything to do with his contacts whatsoever. Its a pity that his contacts are not knowledgable when it comes to the Championship.

What sport do we play in the championship? Is it a different one to the Premier League?

 

[PEN3]

Didn't he spend most of the summer getting bids rejected for a certain Bristol city striker?

If he felt that he was the man to fire us to the premiership why didn't he sign him? Perhaps the striker wasn't convinced that we were heading for the premiership with Sven at the helm

Yes - it's fast and furious, requiring committed players who possess a good engine. Attributes that most of Sven's players lack.

Because the club were rejecting the bids...jeez.

 

[City Fan]

I thought our midfield was probably our strongest area last season, and when you realise that we had Abe, King and Wellens in our starting line up today who were all prominent last year, you have to question why our midfield is currently our weakest link. Maybe we should go back to the system that worked for us last year and go with the three central midfielders and two wide players.

Er... because Bristol City kept turning down his offers?

His contacts and previous relations were definitely the reason we signed these players from ex-ManCity as well as Bamba and Konchesky who he'd worked with previously.

Every man has his price. It was bonkers to consider the amount that Sven was supposedly thinking of paying, but that was his judgement call.

I'm off to bang my head against a wall.

**** off, what nonsense. The difference between the bottom half of the Prem and the Championship is negligible. You don't need 'passhun' or to play ugly in this league, you just need a good goal scorer and a good supply, the same as any other league. We have good, proven strikers we just need to sort out the supply chain against teams who clog midfield, something that someone with Sven's tactical knowledge will sort out. Roy Keane Ffs, I don't even know why I'm treating your posts as anything other than the ramblings of a mad man.

So you agree he was right not to pay the amount they demanded, but say he should still have signed him?

 

[bocadillo]

I'd guess none, but that would mean it was made up, reactionary nonsense so I thought I'd give you the benefit of the doubt.

Another one that doesn't know what reactionary means.

Glad I didn't stay up to watch this result come in. That's a real choker. Rotating a team only works when you have a squad maleable enough to work with various arrangements of personnel. We don't have that luxury it seems. Sven needs to find the best 11 and stick to it I feel. What a difference Beckham would make right now! Come on Sven, bring in a creative midfielder or two in January. I'm going to put this one down to a freak result and move on. That's the only way I feel like dealing with it to be honest. On to the hammers. Not exactly confident we'll get anything from that one now but positive attitude helps.

 

[spionfox]

How many decent players has he brought to us through his contacts and status?

Naughton, Yakubu, Bamba, Schmeichel, Nugent, Konchesky, Peltier, Fernandes, Davies, Cunningham, Mee...

What PR said. Plus possibly Paddy VA.

 

[spionfox]

Maybe we should go back to the system that worked for us last year and go with the three central midfielders and two wide players.

I can see the flaw in that plan.

 

[North East Fox]

Thinking I should turn the tv off now.

 

[Kingy_85]

FFS only at Leicester could we take a striker of Beckfords quality and turn him to sh*t.

Im sick and tired of this side. I'll keep my support and back Sven, but how long can this go on?

I'm just glad I climbed a Welsh mountain instead of watching the bunch of failures.

 

[Kingy_85]

Whats more.... Crystal Palace are up in the playoffs. That just shows money has NOTHING to do with this league.

SERIOUS questions being asked of just what is going on.

Abe is not a right winger is he? No matter how good his cross against Watford.

 

[Kingy_85]

St Ledger you're a ******* joke !!! - just watched the highlights.
