Match Thread Leicester v Burnley

[Miles Away]

How Bertrand is getting in ahead of Castagne is anyone's guess.

We agree!

 

[popillius]

Yeah I've definitely not seen anything from Vestergaard to convince me I was wrong about him, or why we've had eyes on him for so long.

He has looked okay for me before today. Not fit enough but pretty solid. Today he looks like Junior Lewis' shitter cousin.

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

Buying two of Southampton's 9-0 specialists is proving to be a complete dumbfuck of a move...

 

[popillius]

We agree!

Rocking horse shit type rareness, that.

 

[Blue Maniac]

I honestly don’t know how signing two of the starting back five from the 0-9 has gone so wrong

 

[popillius]

What. The. ****. Stop this ****ing around at the back, shit.

 

[glyn]

As we all suspected the Fofana injury, along with Evans edging towards retirement, has really been a killer for our season.

 

[homer]

Absolute.

****ing.

Shite.

 

[Miles Away]

Well.

We look like conceding from every long ball and set piece.

We have more goals in us, but we can’t win games conceding the amount of goals we are.

Lose this and the entire framing of our season changes. We will be floating around the bottom 4-5.

 

[sparky79]

Yep. Castagne, Evans and Iheanachon are needed to change this.

 

[big_mac4824]

put two upfront ffs we will take these apart!

 

[popillius]

Bertrand, Vestergaard, Soumare all ****ing useless. I mean, really ****ing useless. Tielemans great in patches terrible in others.

We may be going forward a lot but we have no idea what to do when we get close to their penalty box.

They, on the other hand, aren't getting forward as much but Vydra has our whole defence in his back pocket.

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

This season has been a perfect storm of horseshit so far...

Fofana season ruining injury
Panic buy to replace him not up to scratch
Soyuncu in bad form
Evans injury means hes only really a bit part player from here on in...

It's no surprise we are ****ing garbage defensively.

 

[FOX Franks]

put two upfront ffs we will take these apart!

If only we had a second attacking player who was showing any signs at all of form.

 

[M17TT C]

I think we've probably been better with the ball in this game but still, for all our possession, how much has Pope really been tested?

At the back we look a shambles, one long ball up and they are in plus with asking Ricardo to provide a lot of our attacking threat, we were woefully exposed in the right back position again.

 

[londonfox]

I’d bring on Ihenacho for Ndidi.

 

[homer]

Bertrand, Vestergaard, Ricky P, Soumare

Complete ****ing shite

Vydra has run us ragged and he's a hopeless wanker

Playing out from the back by Schmeichel and the hopeless ****s across the back four is a ****ing disaster

They're a shower down the flanks FFS. Thus us ****ing rubbish

 

[Matt_B]

Attacking well, Soumere nowhere near as bad as some are making out. The problem is with the defence. The first is unlucky, the second poor. It's not Vestergaard's problem he's not quick.

 

[pork pie fox]

It’s far too easy for them to get the ball in behind us. Any ball in the channel and they’re on the end of it.

I don’t think we’ve been that bad going forwards and we’ve had chances, but we look really poor at the back.

 

[Lako42]

Some of our play has left me speechless today.

Win the FA Cup and Charity Shield and somehow look like you've had the confidence kicked the **** out of you.

Some of the most mindless defending and play from the back I've ever seen.
