Post Match Napoli 3 Leicester 2

[alex]

I wonder if players who have come in - probably Bertrand, have upset the team dynamic. Something’s not well at the club.

True but missing the penalty cost us qualification

So did Maddison’s miss.
So did Bertrands failure to backtrack
Etc

What the **** is the conference league anyway...

The only good that can come out of it is that Spurs don't qualify and by some miracle Leicester win it.

It hasn’t felt right long before the summer.

Not necessarily, they might have scored again.

 

[Jimmy Lad]

Albrighton again given ample opportunity to impress and in the 4 mins he played he put the best ball into the box all game.
If I were him I’d want out in January

Do you think? Why? Since the Cup win??

 

[Jimmy Lad]

They might have but they didn’t etc

 

[Jeff]

They didn't need to. If we'd scored it would have changed the rest of the game.

You can't blame it on one individual moment. We were rubbish all the way through.

I think it's more likely to be the players who have left the club. Morgan and Fuchs.

 

[Jeff]

Who do we play in this conference shite then? 3rd placed or 2nd or what?

Europa Conference League

We'll play one of the second placed teams from the ECL groups over two legs in February. The draw takes place on Monday 13th December. You can see the current tables here: https://www.uefa.com/uefaeuropaconferenceleague/standings/

One guy missing a chance didn’t really cost shit. That we leak is our problem.

Yep I know. My point was that it wasn’t down to Vardy’s penalty miss.

I'm almost lost for words. I'd watched the Napoli Vs Atalanta game, this was almost a carbon copy. Invite helter skelter attacks, break down of attack, invite the press, give and go pass and advance as an over confident presser stepped too far.
I'm not sure I can blame too many players, over the 90 minutes, for continuing to do things that were positive. Bertrand pushed forward, played 1-2s , overlapped etc.
I think my point is that if that was not his instructions then hook him from the game.
And why not swap Caglar and Evans??‍
Earlier in the season Kasper annoyed me by putting his foot on the ball. Now it's spreading to the CBs.
Youri and Wilf have been immense players in the last few years. Seeing Youri floundering on right was painful. Wilf, dear lord
My greatest disappointment is that players who would be a solid 7/8 are looking like 4s. The 4s are hitting their limit.

 

[doolochfox]

As for the Xmas Tree formation it looked like we included the bucket. 2, 4, 3, 1. It was inevitable.

 

[SilverFox]

I know that was your point. I was agreeing. Sorry

 

[Volpone]

Wilf and Cags are just awful. I think they both want away.
