Leicester_Loyal

Knew it would be something ridiculous like this. Spineless FC strikes again.

Southampton game tonight is massive, they need to win about 9 of 11 games to stand a chance of automatics IMO. Wouldn't fancy them with that kind of pressure, especially when they've got to play us, Leeds and Ipswich.

Half the team are shattered, KDH and Winks are having to play almost 90 minutes every week, sometimes twice a week. With Casadei going back, Ndidi being out for a while, it's been up to these two and partly Ricardo as well to nurse us through. Hopefully Praet will be back by Bristol City as well. I've said it a hundred times but I'll say it again, not signing a CM in January was criminal, I refuse to believe there wasn't someone half decent who we could bring in on loan who could give us 30 minutes every other game, like Casadei did.

I think they've kept a few hundred for the ticket office crew, but even so I didn't expect it to sell out.

That second half was one of the worst I’ve ever seen from a Leicester side, genuinely awful. I really thought they were gonna be given that penalty at the end. KDH gave the ball away 3 times in the build up to that, he was honking. We need to beat Hull by any means possible, then rest up, get Ricardo back for Bristol City, get Ndidi fit etc. I’m starting to get worried…

I’m in disbelief that we’ve sold this out, genuinely thought we took no more than 5k to it

Don’t believe we’ve sold 6k for this, the club must have taken a load or something.

Should be fine. There's something going on here, hundreds of tickets are being held back I'm sure, absolutely zero chance we're selling this out, unless I'm massively underestimating our support. I think the front rows of each block have been kept back, like 9 or 10 rows not just 1 or 2.

Ricardo would be mad to want to stay, he's miles above this level. We need to start selling players when they've got 2 years left on their contract, regardless of how good they are. Having players run down their contracts and leave on frees or for cheap with only 1 year left will ruin us. Cash in and look for the next gem.

No idea why people are worrying about this one, over 6k tickets, on tv, no trains, early KO and £38. Highly doubt we sell more than 4.5k for this.

Use Coady, also think Albrighton should be getting at least 30/35 minutes. If we fail to win here I do think we're in trouble.

Yep, life is so unfair! We cause all our own problems and then seem bemused when they rear their head.

Not sacking Rodgers was absolute madness, I will never forgive those at the top for hanging onto that idiot for so long. I've had zero faith in the ownership of the club for about 18/24 months now.

8 wins 1 draw from 11 games needed, I genuinely don't think we'll beat it, especially not with Ricardo, Praet and Ndidi all out injured. I'm going for 99/100 points now, which is pretty bad really considering the position we were in. Hope they prove me wrong.

Last season there was loads of examples of being 2 goals down and getting nothing back, Arsenal away, Chelsea away (they had 10 men for about 70 minutes inlcuding injury time), 3 down away at Newcastle, 2 down away at Forest, 3 down at Man City at home, 3 down at Man City away, 4 goals down away at Fulham, 3 down at home to Liverpool. Newcastle away in the cup, 2 down. Even Blackburn at home in the cup we were 2 down and never even got a replay/ET. There literally wasn't 1 game last season where we were 2 goals down at any point and managed to get something out of the game, unless I've missed one somewhere. We also gave away a 2 goal leads at Brentford opening day of the season. The season before was similar, lost a 2 goal lead away at Palace, lost a 2 goal lead at home to Napoli, went 2 down at Napoli away, got it to 2-2 then lost 3-2. Did manage to get a win against Moscow as Stan says after being 2-0 down, we scored to make it 2-1 just a few seconds after they scored. We just seem to be soft, there hasn't been fight in this team for 3/4 years now. As soon as we go 2 down the game is done, as soon as we concede a late goal, you know we'll concede another if we're still in the match, or heads will start going and cards will start coming, either reds or yellows resulting in bans. Vardy, Albrighton or Coady, we need one of them on the pitch at any given time IMO. These 3 are the leaders and the experienced heads you need in these situations.

Is he saving less atm than he has been at the start of the season? Feel like a difference is he’s not pulling off as many worldies or game changing saves, but it could all be in my head.

He ain’t perfect but he’s good enough, was good against Leeds and great against Bournemouth. Think he suits away games more, where we’re gonna have less of the ball. Shouldn’t be the captain though after recent events IMO.

£38 is ridiculous for any away game, especially Sunday early KO on bog standard TV available to everyone.

When was the last time we came from 2 goals down to get a point? Yet I can think of a couple of occasions where we’ve given away a 2 goal lead in the past 2/3 of seasons. We are so predictable, as soon as Leeds scored their first goal you knew we were gonna lose. It’s half the reason the stadium empties at 2-0 down at home games, everyone knows it’s already game over, pointless staying for the remaining 40 minutes. QPR and M’Boro have both been exactly like this, and it’ll be the same the next time we go 2-0 down at home, we’ll pull 1 back and that’s it.

You can’t lose a player to a 3 month injury, and lose his replacement (Casadei) in the team, and not replace either of them, it was madness, as plenty of us said at the time. It stinks of this bizarre entitled winging it attitude the whole club seems to have.

Internal investigation needed again where Rudkin, Susan and Top all point at each other and blame each other. Honestly clueless, the lot of them.

Was so obvious we needed another midfielder, I can’t believe people were saying the squad will be fine. We’ve always been 1 long term injury away from a crisis, I’m amazed we’ve gotten away with it for so long tbh.

Never rated him, looks good 80% of the time in this league but does constantly make mistakes every game, always dives in, gets turned in the middle and it ends up with other teams scoring or creating big chances. Certainly not good enough if we go up, we’ll be hammered, just like last time.

We could have signed various players on loan for CM cover, absolutely no way other teams managed it but we didn’t. They knew Ndidi was out, and they also knew Casadei was being recalled, not signing 1 midfielder was a disgrace. Not doing so has meant we were now relying on Winks, KDH and Ricardo to play every week, with Praet and Yunus filling in occasionally. Shock horror Ricardo gets another injury!
