If you want a good example Of an individual error etc, take Faes own goal attempt. I don’t blame the full back there. Perfect world, the cross doesn’t go in. It’s a nothing cross and defensively we ain’t in a bad position. A minor error. Faes makes an awful decision of aiming his clearance towards our goal. Bad decision. Nearly a very bad error. Faes at fault if a goal Anyways, off down the pub

What are you waffling on about! There’s plenty of examples on team sports in individual errors are fatal. Rugby Union it’s bloody huge and there’s fifteen men on a team but because of formation and tactic. One individual error leads to a try. Same happens in football. When Meslier made that error last week, no one was saying well Leeds shouldn’t have gave the free kick away or lost the first contact on the free kick. I’m not expecting a defender to Stop every cross. Im expecting to stop more than less of them or at least make the cross a bad on. However as the goals conceded have involved that pattern of Justin allows a cross - that suggests a higher average. Im not looking for a stick. I’m looking at the actual statistics what say there is a problem there. I am looking at how opposition are targeting the right hand side of our defence. I don’t need any individual preference. The actual evidence is there played out in about 5 of our 8 league games this season.

It’s the opposite. I wrote on Fosse Way. He had a choice today. Martin will not change his tactics. Maresca last season tweaked his tactics to beat Southampton with ease twice. Given Martin’s inevitable gameplan, the whole set up was there laid out for Cooper to implement. He ignored at his error first half. Then actually went to that game plan in the second where Fatawu and Winks are so key.

I’ll explain again as you don’t half love playing the contrary. As a defender you have to make the calculation of risk and reward. Justin this season has consistently made decisions which have a direct impact leading to a goal. The first goal today. Okoli is not in a great position but the cross doesn’t go in, he’s fine. The same happened v Villa/Duran goal. At Fulham, Vestergaard lost an initial challenge and this allowed a counter attack. Justin chose to allow the attacker to run unchallenged to the edge of the 18 yard box. The threat of danger when Vestergaard made that challenge is on the halfway line is relatively minimal. The danger when Justin allows Smith Rowe to go unchecked into the eighteen yard box, obviously is a lot worse. If Justin tucks in and stops the crosses for those moments, the goals don’t happen. I don’t have a hatred or dislike for the bloke. I see a player in bad form and a more than able deputy not playing

Southampton 2 - 3 Leicester POST MATCH
CosbehFox replied to SecretPro's topic in Leicester City Forum
Worth mentioning it was defo a pre planned set pieces move. Saints last minute equaliser to Ipswich highlighted that they overly pack out the six yard box -
He’s been making bad decisions - when to push and press which then leaves the rest of the defence overloaded or outnumbered. The goals at Fulham were a huge example of this. Errors happen but some of the errors he’s made have a larger consequence. He’s in poor form. Simple as

Notts Forest (H) Friday 25th October 8pm
CosbehFox replied to FoxinNotts's topic in Leicester City Forum
Forest fans actually come into Leicester pre match ? 🤣🤣🤣 Wont find them anywhere. A right coach army of travelling support -
The lad’s bad decision making accounts for 10 goals off the top of my head. That’s just calling bad for exactly what it is as backed up by statistics

Errr with Justin we’ve conceded somewhere between 60 to 70% of goals from the right flank (crosses etc)

Yeah. Literally most blatant penalty you’ll get. Can’t knock the comeback or the tactics but the answers were there werent they? -
You’d have a point if this wasnt a team we beat 4-1 and 5-0 last season

Struggling mate. Similar boat here. Ashby has a 20 miler in late March with an eye for training programme to Marathons in April (London, Manchester, Brighton) -

About stopped when starting. Was going to do a spot of tourism, didn’t bother and kept it local. I’ve ran Vicky Pqrk four times and three times I’ve done it at the same pace -
That Widnes thing is cos a 18 yr old ground hopper who likes to be over spoken on Twitter got punched by a 16 yr old. The victim/loudmouth has been banned from four clubs across this season alone.

LCFC Launches 2024/25 Fan Engagement Plan
CosbehFox replied to moore_94's topic in Leicester City Forum
Come to a grinding halt again hasn’t it? Supposed to be a September kick off meeting. Halfway through October and no one is aware who’s been appointed or current direction of travel with the whole process. -
Is that three strikers signed in the last month?

Wrexham could play St Trinians School for the Blind and they'd stick it on TV.

The definitive game for every Leicester scoreline

For the vintage of my era - 4-4 27 Dec 1993 - Leicester 4 Watford 4 A last minute Ormondroyd equaliser at Filbo. -
They attempt to but I think they add a number of combinations from the other requests etc and you end up with a very small pool of potential opposition. Wolves are another consistently paired with L.pool. A massive influence on Boxing Day fixtures is the London clubs. Tellingly only one derby takes place on that set of the fixtures. One of the least impactful on police resource - Chelsea v Fulham. Two London clubs play at home (one of which is the 27th now). The impact of no public transport and a reduced tube service is big. So it appears they try to get as many London teams away and facing teams outside of London (of course we have 7 London clubs in the league); avoiding derbies to overwhelm policing and not to overly test the reduced transport services As result you end up with a remaining 8 teams and 4 fixtures. The possible combos reduce because of the Manchester and Liverpool clubs - that pre sets that at least two of the fixtures to be Liverpool/Everton v Midlands/North team & same for Man U/Man City v X. You can have one Manchester v Liverpool combo and that’s going to be Everton v one of the Manchester clubs because of policing. We aren’t going to play Villa or Wolves on Boxing Day either. So that leaves us the Liverpool, Manchester and Newcastle. Tellingly no Northern team has to go south of Leicester. Therefore it’s no surprise that since promotion in 14/15 excepting last season; we’ve faced a Manchester or Liverpool club 6 lot of 10 times. Newcastle makes another. Spurs and Watford the others

It’s worth mentioning the costs of those coaching badges too. Taking them via the English FA is five times more expensive than in Spain or Germany.
