It's making my eyes bleed

We have **** all intensity, despite it being one of CP's favorite words.

 

[homer]

Most exciting stuff is Fuchs' throw ins

It's complete bob

Leicester 0-0 Southampton

Michael Appleton

Ex-Leicester City assistant manager on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra

"It is a little testimonial pace at the moment and the atmosphere is a little low which is understandable given the events of the last month here. We need a goal."

 

[londonfox]

It’s got ****-all to do with the events of the last month and everything to do with our approach and style of play

 

[homer]

Silva genuinely looks like he plays for a pub team

And not a very good pub team

 

[Lako42]

I can remember why I don't listen to Stringer, talking absolute shit.

 

[Blue Maniac]

I've just scratched my arse. Will update if there are any further developments.

 

[City Fan]

2 shots, 0 on target.

Puel has succeeded in his transition plan. We have transitioned into a boring as **** team with no intensiteee, no qualiteee, and no possibiliteee.

 

[City Fan]

We’ve won 3 out of our last 13 home games in the league, having played just two of the “big six” in that time.

He has to go.

 

[homer]

Good grief

I'd kick them both out of the competition right now, and not let them come out for the second half

Truly appalling in every way

 

[tedfoxxx]

It’s sad to see this kind of attitude towards the only thing we could conceivably win this season.

I think it’s ****ing shameful actually.

 

[popillius]

I've said it before and will again. Silva is not a footballer. At all. Ever. The rest of them can't be bothered.

 

[SilverFox]

This bad boy needs unlocking

Red Dead Redemption II.... Come here you gorgeous thing.

Let us know if there is a move for the Ovex. I need something to keep me engaged for the next 45 minutes. Even Masterchef is shit this week.

My thoughts exactly.


Making it to a cup final this season would be iconic and meaningful.

Unfortunately the signs aren't good, we have a great many 1st team players on the pitch which suggests we just aren't very good.


We have some very negative footballers in this side, and I include Wilf in that who seems ****ing petrified to cross the halfway line in any meaningful way.

Boring

 

[Urban fox]

how can you expect players who haven't had a look in all season suddenly be expected to turn it on? Either have to rotate occasionally to give some of these players more game time, or stick to the first choice team (if CP actually knows what his is). we all know that prem league is always priority these days but FFS this is a cup, a trophy, a place in Europe and we should treat it as such. These are not bad players, but most of them probably know that no matter how well they play they will be dropped back to the bench (or not even on it) for the next game so it is no surprise that they lack intensity etc.

That is sad. I hope we aren’t ruining Wilf.
