Match Thread Porto v Leicester

[Joe_Fox]

I should have stayed in bed, like the whole team did. Fortunately my stream keep stopping.

I guess one thing is true though - this is a complete dead rubber and we just need to get through it with no injuries or suspensions.

Move on.

Well, I'm hoping Porto think 'job done' and use all of their subs and, in a unprecedented move, bring on their tea lady, or whatever they have in Portugal.

Now perhaps we can better appreciate Ranieri's problem - we simply do not have a decent squad.

Do you think the baggies will still be interested after tonight?

 

[glyn]

I'm not quite sure what some of you were expecting with so many changes. I would bet this team hasn't even played together on the training ground.

Some level of effort, and the ability to put a pass together and a shot on target?

I keep hoping every last match is going to be the nadir, and this season just keeps getting worse.

 

[LoopisDeLupis]

I'm going to Watch the second half. We cannot possibly be as shit as the first.

We could be much worse.

 

[FIF]

probably a 3-4 victory on here for us.

Missed the first half. Sounds like a good thing. I'm going to start with the same level of excited I had at 7.45 and before seeing the score.

 

[popillius]

I never really criticise the desire or effort of players because I don't think it is always as linear as that. I criticise the thinking of players and sometimes even the talent they have but rarely their desire. However....

Schlupp's performance tonight has been totally lazy and careless. He really doesn't want to be playing and is making no secret of that. It's appalling and totally unprofessional. They've all been shit to a man but his utter contempt for those fans that have travelled to watch that dross should be enough to see him removed from the squad for a long time. Preferably permanently. We turned down 10 million pounds for him. 10 ****ing million bastard pounds.

Wow

S'alright. That's just Leicester being Leicester.

70 completed passes in 45 minutes of football

Wow

Well I turned it off after the 2nd goal and I don't remember seeing more than 5, so that's some going.

 

[FIF]

Why wouldn't Jeff run his socks off tonight?

Please West Brom make another offer.

 

[homer]

Hopefully all those that were calling for Schlupp, Chilwell, Gray etc to be in the starting line up will hopefully go and lie down and wait till the feeling wears off.

To be fair I don't think anyone ever, in the history of the world, has called for Schlupp to be in the starting line up

 

[SJN-Fox]

Their keeper didn't touch the ball until the 30th minute !

 

[FIF]

Ulloa coming on

 

[Miles Away]

Lenny's on Albrighton too

 

[Blaarev]

Musa and ........SCHLUPP off

 

[homer]

Finally Albrighton gets a game.....

 

[yackandandah]

I live in hope (not that one near Brighton either), or I'm a gluten for punishment - take your pick.
