Match Thread Leicester v AS Roma

[Graz]

I'm not confident about this to be fair.

I worry about our defence against Tammy Abraham in the air and on set plays. I worry about Mkhityarian finding too much space with us not having a proper defensive mid in the side. And I worry that Mourinho, even now, probably has more tactical nous than Rodgers.

But at the same time, we have players that can bother them. I don't think Vardy should've started but it is now doubt a huge boost to see him back in that starting lineup. Just hope it pays off!

Brave move from Rodgers to drop Barnes for Lookman, but warranted on current form.

It will no doubt become a decision that's lambasted if we lose though, but I think the change is warranted - and hopefully Barnes can impact from the bench later.

Barnes is a much better player on his day. Id not start him against Italian sides if they're the stereotypical Italian defences.

sweet caroline ffs

Aye

 

[Graz]

Great energy we're showing so far

Maddison involved a lot!

 

[camberwell fox]

Shit

 

[Bezu Fache Fox]

****ing hell.

Why didn't Youri follow the runner? Bizarre.

 

[Graz]

Ah ffs, that's soft

Going behind go to an Italian team and a Mourinho team is not where you want

 

[Graz]

Why didn't Youri follow the runner? Bizarre.

Why didn't Fofana see Pellegrini?

He couldn't be arsed.

 

[popillius]

Tielemans, shit.
Fofana, shit.
Kasper….. super, super shit.

albrighton can not allow the player to control it FFS

 

[Miles Away]

Youri is a liability these days. Time to move on.

Of all the players to blame…..

Tielemans, Fofana, Kasper all ****ing useless there.

 

[fitz]

Fofana most to blame for that goal. Lazy as **** really.

if you watch the ball played across the pitch he is at fault for allowing the player to control it and run 30 yards with the ball, or do you just see the final 30 seconds of a move?

 

[parafox]

Could be in for a thumping here

 

[Graz]

Youri also isn't a defensive mid, so some of these comments maybe a bit harsh.

Ndidi the only player missing for us now - but he's the one that we needed in that moment.

Bizarre. Other than the goal, we've been on top

Mate… you’re having a ****ing nightmare here.
