Same old Leicester

[dpjfox]

2 consistent factors (despite a change in management) have cost us dear this season

1. our inability to hold onto a lead (dont know how many points we have wasted).

2. Needless sending offs.


Both seem to point to a lack of discipline/proffesionalism

 

[SilverFox]

Its simple really...our players are not confident or good enough! Massive changes need to occur before our little club will challenge for promotion again. Don't get overly carried away by next season! 3 good teams will be coming down to add to the mix!

You forgot :

3. Playing a couple of rancid turds as your "strike force"

 

[MKFox]

bit unfair on the turd

This is the main problem, lets face it defensively we are hardly up to the likes of George Graham's Arsenal or Chelsea which means we need to be taking our chances up front.

If we only score penalties we can't moan too much if we concede late on and lose points. I can't recall going to a match this season where we have been played off the park. Admittedly I haven't been since West Ham away but I have seen us play Sunderland, West Ham home and away, watched Ipswich on telly at home and went to the away match.

We don't seem to be able to convert possession in the final third into goals.

Connolly is not a turd.

If he was given stability up front, with a system which suited him more, which we are starting to adopt, then he would score goals - as he is doing.

Non-turds IMO:
Connolly
Walker
Maybury
Dublin
Dabizas
Gillespie
Hughes
Williams
Gudjonsson
Kenton
McCarthy

Moles at the counter:
Stewart
De Vries
Heath
Morris
Wilcox

Turds:
Blake

Unsure:
Moore

I dont think our disaplinary record is anywhere near as bad as it was.
We was second worst in the premiur and last time in the fizzy we was one of the worst.
As for lossing leads, I think you are forgeting what happened last season.

We just need someone who can tap the ball in the net. and we will be flying.

Same old Leicester? More like "Same old Leicester fans". Bleeding fickle bunch.
Win a game we're champions elect, lose a game and we're relegation candidates.
Get your heads out of your Arrises and live in the real world.
Then bogoff and support the trees ( by jove they need help, even from cack supporters like some of you < I nearly said boneheads then but refrained from it>)

Now that you ask NF...
When MA was here I for 1 wanted him to succeed, as he seemed a nice guy. However, the longer he stayed the worse the situation was getting, and he left behind a lot of deadwood.
The board called in a guy, whose name wasn't on many people's lips let alone be a front runner for the job.
Since CL has taken over, he has recognised quite a few basic flaws in City's setup. One of those being the age of players, and has methodically gone about a change to City that has been needed for a few years.
If you look at the quality of player he has brought to the club, they haven't cost a lot of money, they have a desire to win a game of football, they are players that people on the terraces (!) can recognise with.
I can hear you all shouting "What about MDV?" Not all signings workout. Even M O'N, brought a few. Give MDV a preseason to get fit and see then.
Having supported Leicester for....One thing they have been consistent in is being inconsistent...That will probably never change, however, with the brand of football that City have shown they can play under Cl, we might just see more consistent consistency.
Once we are safe, I'm looking forward to some of the up and coming youngsters getting a game.
Flipping heck, gone on a bit there but you did ask!!!!
