Match Thread Manchester City v Leicester

[popillius]

I really don't think it's Chilwell fault. I think he's massively lacked support out there as Mahrez and KDB have doubled up.

Some of it is down to a lack of support. Some of it is his inability to shield a ball from going out or being painfully slow to react. A lot of it is the fact he panics like a dog in Korea every time he needs to defend.

Albrighton on but now weve switched our wingers!

Awful decision that Brendan.

Chilwell need help! Albrighton is the one winger who can give that!

 

[Brown Nose]

Gray coming on for Perez. 67 minutes too late.

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

Thank feck for that. Perez has been abysmal..

 

[Brown Nose]

Thank feck for that. Perez has been abysmal..

Can those that have been pretending that Perez is anything other than a shite signing please give up.

 

[popillius]

So, so easy

 

[Jeff]

****

 

[Micky]

Got what we deserved. We have been shit.

 

[Jeff]

Do we not do marking any more?

 

[Micky]

I blame Rogers entirely for this pile of shit.

 

[LeeCovFox]

FFS. Typical of us against ‘big’ clubs this season. We lost this in minute one, playing like ****ing cowards.

Fortunately we will beat enough of the shite to secure a top four position.

 

[give_us_a_wave]

& thats ****ing that. Another ****ing big opportunity squandered by playing frozen with fear. Absolutely no need for it either. **** this shit.

 

[Graz]

They've been all over us today. It was coming.

Can we take it as a positive that Man City knew they had to be at their best today to beat us?? Because this is them at their best, in an attacking sense at least.

 

[Payne74]

We have been so shit it's embarrassing

 

[glyn]

That was Mahrez’s 9th shot of the game.

 

[Brown Nose]

Game over. Key lessons:

1. We're completely ineffective in our system without possession
2. We cannot trust Barnes or Perez when it matters
3. They've got more energy than us because they rested in midweek and we didn't (especially our full backs)
4. Rodgers isn't as good a tactician as he thinks he is

 

[glyn]

I’d take 3-1 now.

 

[Payne74]

2x wide players needed in January if we are to do anything this season

 

[Brown Nose]

I’d take 3-1 now.

The scary thing is that it looks rather like Rodgers would have done before kick off.

 

[Skitzo]

Brendan has missed the blindingly obvious today, KDB pushing so high up without a cm tracking forces Chilwell marrow leaving Mahrez a country mile of space.

And why the **** id Tielemans still on the pitch, barely found a Leicester player all game
