Match Thread Leicester v Liverpool (League cup)

[bocadillo]

Outclassed in every area of the pitch

I wouldn't say that. We haven't been in their area yet!

 

[Micky]

A total ****ing embarrassment of a 45 minutes. A complete shower of footballing shit. A total lack of tactical understanding. I am staggered at how shit we have been. Shakespeare goodbye. He needs to go now.

 

[SilverFox]

Well that was good.

 

[LudlowFox]

Not sure I've ever seen a performance quite like Iborra's

Just sit back and watch him bumble around - quite amazing

Has he actually ever played football? Did we sign the right guy? Or did we signed their parking attendant? No, strike that. I've seen parking attendant's move faster than him. Honest to god, he's just plain clueless.

 

[Graz]

Need changes at half time. Just get some pace on up front.


Musa on for Ulloa is the one I'd make

 

[atlantafox]

I am sorry but the performance of Ulloa and Slimani was completely shocking. They don't have any touch and can't even win headers. How we are still level at the break I have no idea but please change something at half time - take one or both of them off...I just can't watch another 45 minutes of both of them wearing the shirt

Im watching on the balcony in 23c heat with a bottle of rouge, sure as **** glad I didnt nip over to the little bar over the road to get mocked by locals, altjough to be fair they've probably nodded off after this shitfest.

To be fair, he's used to playing in a team with some possession.

 

[londonfox]

Need changes at half time.

Yes we do. But can someone other than Shakespeare please make them

 

[Polar Bear]

We must never appoint a manager named Craig again.

 

[Brown Nose]

Imagine being Liverpool though. They can't even score against us. How embarrassing for them.

 

[fitz]

That free kick was genius. Got two lumps up front who are only there to head a ball, play it short and nearly lose it. Let Iborra go home at half time as he clearly can't be arsed. Throw Nacho and Moose up front and at least give the team some movement.

 

[Graz]

That was appalling really.

Shakey needs to give them a bollocking - these guys are meant to be pushing for a first team place!

Terrible. Get going.

 

[Graz]

The only positive from that half is that Liverpool somehow didn't score.

Funny that Albrighton is the one player getting any credit on here, yet he's the one they're highlighting as all over the shop on Sky!

 

[sparky79]

We had the ball for less then 10minutes in that first half. The owners should be tearing Shakespeare a new one for offering up that shit to the fans when we know how the team can play.
That said none of Ulloa, Slimani, Gray or Mahrez actually want to BE at the football club so I can imagine their influence is not exactly inspirational for game such as this....
A mess of our own making

 

[SilverFox]

Im going to say it.

I ****ing hate watching us play, we are even worse than hoofball teams who at least play to a specific strength.

We would concede possesion for 90 minutes against Shedshed Dynamo ffs.

Me too. At the moment we are doggo.

 

[Rock Fox]

Outclassed in every area of the pitch

They were the exact words I was going to use, Homer. Astonishingly, when LFC head the ball , it goes to one of their players, yet when we head the ball it - just bounces off the head - no direction, no plan and ( as usual) incapable of controlling the ball and passing it one of our players, utter crap Oh, and if any of the 'new' players were looking to use this match as a show case of their talent - they haven't.

 

[popillius]

I'm struggling to think of a worse debut 45 minutes than that of Iborra's. In fact, I'm struggling to think of a worse 45 minutes from any footballer. Ever.

 

[SilverFox]

We havegone from the saviours of football the world over, to absolute anti football in every game we play.

We dont have a style or identity anymore, its been chewed up and spat out and the worst of it is we've done it ourselves.


A truly horrible team to watch

You can't call it #fearless anymore really can you. We should go with #terrified

Funny that Albrighton is the one player getting any credit on here, yet he's the one they're highlighting as all over the shop on Sky!

I think him and Ndidi have been shit. I don't blame them though as they're two of the few moving about. Same with Gray, awful decision making for a change but he's moved a few times.
