Match Thread Leicester v Chelsea

[Jeff]

 

[Orifice]

The return of The Mac.
Come on Leicester, please.

 

[glyn]

Daka on the bench. Along with game changer Ayew, we’ll be OK for a late winner….

 

[Brown Nose]

Vestergaard injured again?

Could be a back five with McAteer at wing back.

 

[Miles Away]

Vestergaard said “nah, I’m not fancying this one”.

Genuinely fear for us today. That looks far too open and lacking in quality.

State of that bench too.

 

[FOX Franks]

We’re going to get walloped.

 

[Micky]

Chelsea have left the lube on the team bus.

 

[homer]

If that’s a back four, and we play the Cooper ze system, then we will be five nil down in the first twenty minutes

Hopefully it’s not that. Fingers crossed

 

[Brown Nose]

It's really odd how we don't give fringe or returning players hardly any game time.

I know there are rules about the U21s but surely it's obvious that the likes of Coady, Thomas, Choudhury, De Cordova-Reid and Daka are going to be terribly short of match fitness. Add that to their lack of ability at this level and it is a mess.

I'd much rather have 2-3 U21s on there.

 

[Miles Away]

We’ve not even kicked off and the Sportsbook I use is offering a payout on Chelsea.

 

[Graz]

That lineup. ****ing idiot.

 

[DillyDing22]

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. A perfect day if you love to moan about your manager.

It's horrific squad management - unless the player is part of the regular 11 then they are woefully short of match fitness so it's no wonder they look so far off it whenever we have to call upon them.

Skybet offering evens on Palmer 1+ shots!

What?

Damned if you do - he hasn’t done anything. Again, it’s the same defensive setup that has been ineffective all season. Again, Ndidi is in a position that he is completely unsuited to. If you keep doing the same things you’re likely to keep getting the same outcome. And that’s not the narrative of someone who wants to moan about our manager. That’s a fact.

I bet Skipp is glad he kickstarted his career by joining Leicester.

There’s moaning for the sake of it and then there’s staying the ****ing obvious. Whatever the outcome today, our manger has done **** all tactically or personnel wise to positively influence it.

So there’ll be no compliments for the manager if we win today?

Sounds about right, and in line with our other two wins.

Looks like that to me at the moment

Oh yeah, there was absolutely nothing to complain about being 2-0 down to Southampton and being abject for an hour. I base my opinions on what I see, not solely on the result. And the same defensive failings were there against Bournemouth.
