Match Thread Leicester v Birmingham - FA Cup R5

[popillius]

Bennett can’t even make the bench at home against Birmingham in the FA Cup.

This has to be the most pointless signing ever. 5th choice centre back.

Ricky Sappleton.

Don't normally see him down like that though.

Wilf playing like Junior Lewis so far tonight!

And he's still better than Choudhury.

I think Barnes would've been good here. Last year tore it up in the Championship. Get rid of Gray FFS. just get rid.

At least he played a game!

He was only signed in case we get injuries. But if he plays a certain number of games we have to sign him permanently, so we'll only play him if we have to.

These commentators are ****ing morons. Apparently the 73% possession stat is wrong because we’ve done nothing with it. Well no the stat isn’t wrong you useless wanker.

So he was signed in case we get three centre backs injured?

It just feels like he was brought in as third/fourth choice centre back, but then Rodgers realised he was garbage so would rather play a left back there ahead of him.

This system is absolutely shit

No central threat at all. Maddison so ****ing deep.

Slow and no intensity or movement

 

[popillius]

What the **** is the point in Demarai Gray. Useless, arrogant, weak, clumsy, talentless, lazy ****nut.

 

[glyn]

Remember when we all thought Nacho was disinterested and lazy? He’s such a different player this year, one of the few players trying to link the play.

Why is Maddison playing so deep these days?

We are currently playing like a Puel team.

I think Morgan was injured at the time, and we wanted to send Benkovic out on loan, so we signed Bennett as insurance.

It reminds me of Euro 2016 when Rooney decided to play sweeper to try and run the game.

Albrighton gifting the ball away every time he has it isn't helping matters.

There’s quite a bit of that happening across the pitch.
