Match Thread Leicester v Tottenham

[fitz]

Yep, I'm still pleased Enzo ****ed off. ****ing mercenary wanker. **** him.

Yep. **** him.

 

[MerseyFox]

Really poor. More concerned with the lack of aggression or bite. We are a bit too starry eyed.

 

[Miles Away]

Far too easy for them. If our plan is to sit back and absorb it, you’ve got to get at least some pressure on the ball when they get further up the pitch. We’re far too passive and the goal came from exactly that scenario.

That’s exactly right. I don’t mind sitting in, but we aren’t being aggressive enough.

 

[Miles Away]

Spurs most corners and shots on target looking like the easiest money ever so far.

There will be positives to this season!

I’m hellbent on making this long season deliver some value.

We're not talented enough to make the style we succeeded with last season work in the prem. But we're also not enough like Dyche shithouses to make this work.

 

[The Old Fox]

I'm hoping that some of the odd decisions (no Ricardo or Mavadidi) is so that we have some quality to bring on as legs tire, this being the first competitive match.

I too would bring on Cannon for Vardy: little point in him picking up an injury on the wet pitch and he must be shattered as he has hardly trained.

 

[pork pie fox]

I get the impression we aren’t much focused on the attacking part of it all at the minute.

Looks to me he’s decided to be hard to beat, and frustrating to play against first and foremost. Then, yes, get the ball up the pitch as quickly as possible.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s grim to watch, but I do think that’s where his focus is.

But if you’re going to do that, at some point you’ve got to put some pressure on the ball. We’re not doing that at all.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Ndidi looks a million miles off it.

Wilf was on the pitch??

 

[pork pie fox]

Wilf was on the pitch??

He keeps giving the ball to their team so you might mistake him for one of their players.

 

[Miles Away]

Wilf was on the pitch??

Yes, did you miss his overhead clearance off the line?

 

[popillius]

Yep, I'm still pleased Enzo ****ed off. ****ing mercenary wanker. **** him.

That wasn't my point at all.

You may think of him as a **** for jumping ship, that's fine. Being glad he chose to go is odd, given what we are seeing so far.

 

[Blue Maniac]

He keeps giving the ball to their team so you might mistake him for one of their players.

Ah, flashes of 22/23 Wilf

Yes, did you miss his overhead clearance off the line?

I definitely did!

 

[FOX Franks]

Sky talking about how Leicester fans are lacking energy.

Tell me again how brilliantly the club is being run and how happy the fans are?

 

[Miles Away]

But more of a press, but that will leave gaps behind our extremely slow central defenders.

 

[Miles Away]

Wilf needs to come off. Thank **** we’ve signed Skipp if this is the Ndidi we are getting.

 

[Miles Away]

Carved out a chance!

 

[TommyK]

Offside, but yeah we got in there box

 

[Graz]

We're all missing our biggest positive in this game so far.

Mads Hermansen.

I like him a lot.
