  1. Quality player but Vinicius is such a twat.
  2. Because Mavididi isn't a striker.
  3. 4-4-2 with Ayew and Daka? Surely you're joking! 4-3-3 - No for the reasons i've mentioned. 4-3-2-1 - I assume this is with two 10s as opposed to two wingers? If so, no. 4-5-1 - Pretty much exactly the same as a 4-2-3-1. 4-3-1-2 - Why wouldn't we play with Fatawu and why would we play both Ayew and Daka? The way the club has been built (purely to copy Man City) means we can only effectively play a 4-2-3-1. It's all Rudkin's doing.
  4. Clear pen and red card there IMO. Assuming Vinicius was onside.
  5. Because Skipp has proven that he's ineffective as an 8 and James is probably the best box-to-box midfielder in the league. Winks can only play as the base of a 3 man midfield (with a fullback that inverts and joins him). He takes away from Skipp and James and doesn't add anywhere near enough to make up for it. We should play a 3 man midfield and it should be Skipp, James and Mukasa (Ramsey when fit).
  6. Harry Winks a big reason why IMO. Opposition midfielders run rings around him. Nice and tidy when on the ball when he plays 5 yard passes between the centre halves but doesn't want to put the effort in to defend. Skipp and James is the only way.
  7. There's your issue. The EFL, Premier League and FA don't care if your club goes bust so long as you don't disrupt the status quo.
  8. I don't know if i'm making it up but i'm sure that in the summer Cifuentes said something about going for the kill when we're leading in games and we've only ever gone for a 2nd goal when leading about 2/3 times.
  9. Couldn't disagree more!
  10. Is that correct? I thought that they were reduced in League 1.
  11. It's one thing to be going cap in hand to Macquarie when we've got parachute payments coming but what happens when that stops? If we're in League 1 when they start asking for their money back then it'll be asset stripping time. Best believe it'll happen too. We'll end up back at Belvoir Drive with a Cat 3 academy with the likes of Monga, Evans, Page etc all having been sold for peanuts to Big 6 clubs and we won't own the stadium (which will be called something like The Pukka Pie Stadium). We'll be back to the days of signing Gabor Bori, Josh Low and Darren Kenton.
  12. I've watched the last two home games in person and we absolutely were not playing a high line.
  13. Have we really been playing a high line though? QPR were offside once and Bristol were offside twice.
  14. 0.14% of Todd Boehly's net worth. I'm sure he's had more expensive nights out.
  15. I completely get where you're coming from but ultimately, our squad is divided up like this. Take out the teenagers and this is how our squad looks. Goalkeepers - 3 - Stolarczyk, Begovic, Vietes Defensive Fullbacks - 3 - Choudhury, Thomas, Kristiansen Attacking Fullbacks - 1 - Ricardo Centre Halves - 5 - Nelson, Okoli, Vestergaard, Souttar, Lascelles Defensive Midfielders - 1 - Skipp Box-To-Box - 3 - James, Winks, Aribo Attacking Midfielders - 2 - Decordova-Reid, Ramsey Wingers - 2 - Fatawu, Mavididi Strikers - 2 - Daka, Ayew The squad is genuinely atrocious. It's so imbalanced and full of shit characters on massive sums of money that simply do not care. I do not see how you can put together a viable 11 in any real way other than 4-2-3-1 that doesn't lead to massive issues. The failure to sign a fullback and a striker in January has meant we can only set up in one meaningful way. It's meant we're extremely predictable.
  16. I see today it was Jordan James' turn. https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/leicester-city-lcfc-queens-park-rangers-sky-bet-championship-jordan-james-interview Before him it was Skipp. https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/leicester-city-lcfc-queens-park-rangers-qpr-sky-bet-championship-preview-oliver-skipp Before him it was LAscelles https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/jamaal-lascelles-leicester-city-lcfc-bristol-city-preview-championship Before him it was Daka https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/ipswich-town-itfc-leicester-city-lcfc-sky-bet-championship-patson-daka Before him it was Mukasa https://www.lcfc.com/pages/en/media-article/divine-mukasa-leicester-city-ipswich-town-championship-preview
  17. Lost 4 of our last 5 home games. Lost 1 of our last 5 away games.
  18. Stolarcyzk Ricardo Lascelles Vestergaard Thomas Skipp James Fatawu Mukasa Mavididi Daka
  19. 100%. They're getting by with individual quality. Only really Arsenal and Villa have played to more than the sum of their parts this season amongst the teams that would have genuinely targeted a top 8 finish. It feels like it's been a collectively poor season for most teams of those teams.
  20. Really do not understand supposed Leicester fans claiming they want Forest to stay up. Yes it would be funny to see Spurs go down but it will be infinitely funnier to see Forest go down.
  21. Half way through Ayewstorm but it's got legs. Ayew Top marks for not trying So kind of you to bless us With your lack of effort You're hateful and so incompetent. And I wonder Are you taking the club under 'Cause we don't get the gist Of the no goal or assist combination Well, see you later, innovator Some want to punch, some want to kick you There's not a net that you could score through Or at least that's the impression I get 'Cause you never break sweat And you're not aware yet But you're poor. You'll be saying, "Scuse me Show me Seagrave's jacuzzi" I imagine you always fill up your plate You are so overweight
  22. Things I would get rid of; That pre-match montage that has about 2 seconds worth of history of the club pre-King Power. The light shows. The fire cannon things. "Honesty flags". "City Beats" - Just about the most "how do you do fellow kids" thing I have ever seen. "Your Leicester City Side" Fan Cam. The thousands of adverts for Thai products and BC Game. The dreadful sound system. All of it takes away from any sort of natural atmosphere or excitement. The only two things they do right are playing Club Foot and When You're Smiling.
  23. The young lass that does the social media couldn't wait to run onto the pitch to record her videos for TikTok at the final whistle.
  24. You've misunderstood me. We do press better than with Ayew but we still don't press well with Daka. He will charge down the odd fullback playing the ball up the line to give away a throw in and people think that makes him a great presser. I don't have figures to back it up but how many times has Patson Daka ever forced a mistake that has lead to a shot this season? I would wager that it's less than 3. He presses like a headless chicken and experienced defenders see him coming a mile off. The problem is that he looks like Carlos Tevez in comparison to Jordan Ayew.
