Great game of football, two decent sides went head 2 head 17:49 - Oct 21 with 24481 viewsTheResurrection

There's a clear division in our support.

Those that understand the game and its complexities and those that just want to moan at anything they see.

The difference today was one deflected shot that went in and one that didn't.

Otherwise we played a Leicester side clearly up for it and meaning business.

The 2 big points from today...

1 Where the fack is Mesa and why are we giving Clement an easy ride over this?? He needs putting in his place big time.

2. Nathan Dyer is 100 times the player Narsingh is and we need our better players on the pitch. So regardless of position how is Narsingh ahead of Mesa even?

There's a team within us but the manager is where it's at right now, and he's playing the blame game,after it's the beginning of the end for him.

Out.

We looked far from a decent side today Chris.

We kept going, but that’s the only positive. Fabianski kept us in it, again.

I mean, if you mean the difference in the score line was literally a deflected shot then technically you're right.

But the difference in the quality between the teams was a lot more than that.

Leave it out ,they stuffed us in that first half by a country mile ,in the end if it wasn't for Fab we'd have lost that by a much bigger margin ,and that was fact . Carry on in this vein and down we'll go

Overall that was a shocking performance. Alarmingly pedestrian until we went two down. Yes, the players were a major factor but the manager is more to blame for me. Worrying from Clement.

Nah.

When Leicester went 2 up they sat back. Nothing complex about that and we'd have done the same.

We gifted them second and perhaps was unlucky on the first, but it was coming and could and maybe should have been 2 down by the time they scored the first.

We're very poor at the moment.

Don't know what to say about Mesa. Shocking that in 2 seasons we've spent 42m on players who cannot seem to get a game.

Dyer has to start as Narsignh, like Carrol is a 1 performance in 10 player. You cannot have that sort of performer in this division.

There's a team there alright we just cannot know if its any good as the manager has lost the plot.

Isn't it funny how Fans react, they say that Leicester were much better than us and yet basically they played the long ball football that they always do, the very thing the Fans hate when we play it.

We should have been 3-0 down before we had barely got in their half and could easily have lost that 1-6 on another day.

At least we've got Tom Carroll's set pieces to rely upon though.

There's a difference between lumping it forward and hoping for the best, and playing long balls into dangerous areas with space for your quick attacking players to exploit.

I agree with what you say about Dyer - he was excellent today.
Also Clement is clueless ATM - he insists on playing Tom Carroll. He should be nowhere near the field.
Also unless Mesa is locked in a police cell, or banished from training with the first team, then he needs to be the first name on the team sheet.
We need players with passion, fight and who know where the opposition goal is.
We are to pedestrian at the moment.
However where we do disagree is that was a great game of football and two decent sides.
It was reminiscent of two many games over the last two years, where teams we've played have been rubbish and we've been worse.
Leicester weren't in the bottom three before kickoff for nothing.

The difference was far greater than that. They found space between the lines and denied us space. Didn't let us get in behind often, closed us down, won the second balls, moved the ball quickly when they had it.

No their style isn't pretty, but they implemented their game plan. Neat and tidy on the ball too when they needed to be in tight quarters.

You have to question the managers thinking and intentions when he starts Leon no disrespect but aged 35 against the pace that Leicester have, and Tom the thumb Caroll who has no pace either or physique. The opposition couldn't believe their luck. What has Messa done that he isn't being given game time. PC needs to be taken to task over this big time

Hang on, if you think Leicester were playing long ball football today, then maybe the tactical side of the game isnt for you.

Leicester were back playing their incisive counter attacking game. Letting us come on to them, winning the ball and then countering with quick balls out wide and through the middle completely destroying our midfield shape.

If it’s football related wtf is going on.

If it’s not football related the club can’t sit on in forever.

Most of the time they didn’t have to win the ball, we gave it back to them.

Especially in their favourite positions around their own box with our centre backs forward. How can professional players be so shit under no pressure with a static ball. It really beggars belief.

Good gracious me. If the OP thinks that was decent then I fully expect a heart attack from all the excitement when we do get going.

Another horror performance; and piling on the pressure even more when the manager thinks that it's "too early to be talking about relegation" because that is another game that we will wish we had coming after Christmas when we're up schitt creek without a paddle.

Yes. He turned up with the squad suited and booted and carrying his wash bag.
