It seemed like a good idea to set my alarm for this when I went to bed three hours ago. Idiot. Goodnight.

 

[Motown Fox]

LOL
I set my alarm too but I did go to bed about midnight
We need to improve our passing to get anything out of this game.

Oops an early Yellow card for Hernandez

 

[Motown Fox]

Should have been 1-0 to PSG then

 

[glyn]

Just woken up to watch. Vardy not yet up to fitness then?

 

[Jeff]

1-0 to psg. Needless penalty.

 

[Motown Fox]

Penalty to PSG and we're down 1-0

Stupid challenge from Amartey

 

[Jeff]

Just woken up to watch. Vardy not yet up to fitness then?

He wasn't expected to be ready for this game.

 

[Motown Fox]

Great free kick from Mahrez
And then Amartey misses an unguarded net with a header from the resultant corner not being cleared

 

[glyn]

We've played pretty well since the goal.

 

[Micky]

2-0. out of our depth.

 

[Micky]

Amartey has some great qualities but he is not good enough for central midfield. Jeff Schlupp is lost. Chilwell looks scared. Wank. Relegated by October.

 

[Motown Fox]

That's the difference at this level.
We make a missed pass up front and leave ourselves open at the back and PSG have the players on the break to punish us like that second goal.

 

[Sack]

What time do Leicester City start playing....!?!

 

[Motown Fox]

Drinkwater, Musa, King, Albrighton, Simpson, Gray to come on hopefully.

Hernandez not looking too comfortable at right back, good at long throws though. Amartey, as Micky says is not quite good enough and going forward both him and Schlupp not quite clever enough. We are not quick enough up front either.
However we played well after going 1-0 down and had some half chances although they fell to Amartey.

 

[Sack]

After about 10 mins I was thinking just how much more relaxed I am about watching us play knowing that we already have a nice shiny trophy in the swag bag... I think the medication is starting to wear off now!

As well as my computer going for a fag break just as Marhez was running up to the free kick and having to swap streams about half a dozen times... I'm not impressed with what I'm seeing of this 11. We look very nervy and in need of a Vardy. I've got my hand over my eyes every time the ball goes near Armartey! I hope we get to see Musa in the second half ...we may even get back in it!

 

[Jeff]

Musa should have scored.

 

[glyn]

Great attack on the break then and Musa really should have scored.

 

[Jeff]

Second half team is closer to a first choice eleven. Simpson, Fuchs, Albrighton, Drinkwater and Musa on.

 

[Micky]

We are getting made to look a little silly now.
