Jebus. Some of the ****ing hideousness on here this evening. I'm just about to drive back home and I'm bitterly disappointed but we've made sure that it's in our own hands now.
Look, it was a horrific penalty from Maddison but regardless of the complete bollocks being spouted, he was the best player on the pitch by an absolutely country mile in the first half. In the second, he was trying far too hard to make up for that penalty and it showed. At least he made a goal. Castagne gives away the world's most ****ing stupid penalty and plays pretty shit all game but doesn't get a tenth of the shit that Maddison does. The real truth of the matter is that Maddison is still more likely than not the best hope we have of staying up followed by Vardy, another player written off too soon. Maddison is a scapegoat for tonight but Soumare, Barnes, Thomas, Castagne and Daka were all pretty shit throughout and contributed pretty much nothing whatsoever.
Iversen was spectacularly good. The two CBs were decent and Vardy was great. Ndidi was taken off too early for me, especially given how utterly, utterly ****ing shit Daka is.
We are out the bottom four. I'll take that. These kinds of games are often scrappy, horrible affairs which makes them difficult so saying 'we can't beat Leeds or Everton so we are down' doesn't quite work. It may be easier, daft as it sounds, to play Fulham and West Ham, teams who don't need to scrap or play for anything. Even Newcastle might be a simpler game than our last two matches given they are pretty much already in the CL.
There's still points there and we have put our fate in our hands rather than those of our
