Match Thread Leicester v Napoli

[Payne74]

Other than the goal we have been shit.
Is the game plan to constantly lose possession when passing it out from the back and to pass it backwards when on the break

 

[bocadillo]

All that's keeping Inthis game is Napoli's poor finishing and two good saves by Schmeichel In five seconds of the 45th minute. We need to liven up.

 

[Feriol]

Evans and Vestergaard clearly are not sharp which is a problem, Castagne is having to keep popping up to bail them out.

 

[Singapore Fox]

Rather poor bar the goal. Very little movement off the ball and tentative when in possession. Napoli bossing it

 

[Miles Away]

Youri likely needs to see this game out for us. We are having a difficult time with ball retention and they are sending runners through the middle. The bookings don’t help.

These are definitely not shit.

They can be got at though. Youri and Vards could properly punish these.

 

[Graz]

Need to play a lot better if we're going to stay ahead.

But at least we're winning

I think Napoli are much closer to their firsr XI than we are? Although Mertens is injured

Yep agree, and i don't think Soumare has been great so far. Think that's a change we might make

Five of them didn’t play at the weekend apparently

 

[lesterboy]

Ndidi and soumare keep wanting to play the ball backwards. We are lacking a midfielder who can pick out the forwards.

He’s tentative. Recycling the ball well enough but has lacked bravery in his forward passing. To be expected on his debut in a very big game.

Soumare has been box to box I don't see your point

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

I don't think we were doing bad at all, until about half way through the half. Then it started to go to shit, Napoli were turning the screw until eventually they were practically running riot over us in the latter stages. Lucky they didn't get on level terms thanks to some piss poor finishing and good saves from Kasper.

We were being battered for a while.

 

[homer]

First ten minutes we were great, rest if it we've been complete shite

They're miles better than us and could have had five

That Soumare is ****ing hopeless

 

[Miles Away]

Soyuncu and a back 3 may make sense too. He’s got some pace and can help gum up the late runners.

 

[popillius]

Perez our best player. Nacho, Daka and Soumare all scarily shit.

It's like watching 3 Ahmed Musas.

 

[FrenchFox]

I think that Soumare and Daka are not yet up to speed. Wilf and Ian are effectively covering for them. We need more creativity in mid-field. Bring on KDH to replace Soumare

 

[Jeff]

Soyuncu and Tielemans on.

 

[Jeff]

Perez and Evans off

 

[glyn]

Savage once again seems to think we have still got the same players as five years ago and how great we are at the counter attack.
