I think the praise for Mendy is a bit OTT. When I watch Mendy I see a player who's first thought is to pass it back or sideways to the player nearest him. Hardly a crucial element to the team, doing a job Matty James or King did all the time also.
People say, "he didn't put a foot wrong today", or "he keeps things ticking over nicely and keeps it simple". Its not hard to 'not put a foot wrong all game' if you only pass sideways and backwards.
I may be in the minority but I want a cm who has more to his game than being a steady and safe player. Take creativity like Maddison or Tielemans out and we have a serious problem. Take out Mendy and literally any player who can complete a short sideways pass could take his place. I honestly would rather have kept King and let Mendy go, King has history and an affinity with the club, Mendy would be proud of his short sideways passing, but he also scores important goals.

What has happened to L1 as well? Used to be decent now they may as well move to the west stand. Only UFS and those guys at the back of the kop give a s*** about the atmosphere and a couple dotted around elsewhere (myself included).
Anyone on here here sit in the west stand? What was it like in the title winning season even? Was it just clapping along people did and would you have been given funny looks for singing as I was as a kid years ago?

Our fans are shit. Most people on this forum reflect how shit our fans are. There I said it.
Absolutely atrocious. You could hear a pin drop how the **** do you expect the team to come back from 1-0 down when 90% of the stadium is sitting quietly not even moving let alone making some noise
I know, worst in the league home and away I’d say, at least teams like Southampton and Burnley have an excuse that their teams are shite, we have an amazing team and manager but 3rd rate support

A few weeks back I took my southern based 15 year old brother to his second ever Leicester game at Brighton away (first was Real Madrid in 2011). He didn’t really know any of our players or songs, but he still outsang 98% of our fans there that day. He even tried to start some.
sums up the state of our support.
some people seem to go so they can just have a moan, others do so so they can relax and watch the game like it’s a play in a theatre.
as far as away support is concerned I see a disproportionate amount of people just sitting at away games or standing with arms folded in absolute silence all game even wins. Why do these people go to away games? Just watch on the telly?
few years back at an away game we were silent, so rather than join in with my attempts to get the atmosphere going, a guy near me just said “on your own mate”. Same guy offered no vocal support all game. Again, sums up the state of our fans.

Given our club size and where we are in the league you think the place would be bouncing. All season you’d think we were battling relegation it’s that bad, not just at home but away hasn’t been good either (Brighton at least was terrible, to the point where the home fans cheered ironically when we mustered a song up)
top 2 side, worst support in the league imo, given how well we’re doing.
imagine if Liverpool slipped up and we went on to win the league with this s*** support, it would be surreal and embarrassing.
too many people turn up and sit there waiting to be entertained, arms folded with no noise contribution.
95% of our fans either only contribute by clapping those banners, don’t do or say anything, or scream abuse at our players as their only source of noise the entire game.
Almost all the people around me in the kop were silent apart from the few guys at the back as usual who always try and get it going. The only sound that left most people lips all game was groans when we lost the ball and the occasional shout of “for f**** sake chilwell” or “gerrimoff” for iheanacho.
We may as well bulldoze the west stand tbh, if you so much as open your mouth there you get reported to a steward, miserable bastards

It's so poor. We don't realise how good we've got it honestly.
Ikr if it’s this bad now we’re second and looking to challenge for an unlikely title again imagine what it’ll be like if god forbid we get relegated in the not too distant future, I’d guess 18000 people leaving at 70 minutes every game and our only source of noise being groaning at misplaced passes or team moves breaking down - so not too far from today I suppose

Atrocious. Imagine being a player winning 7 in a row, second in the league and having fans who can’t even be bothered to clap and sing them off let alone sing and show some passion during the game. Imagine if the players just walked straight off after the game some on here would have a heart attack!
It’s clear players like Youri, Maddison want to interact and celebrate with the fans but unfortunately for them they play at a club where 90% of fans are happy to sit and fiddle with their clapper and then leave as soon as they can. Says a lot when your manager has to come out and urge fans to stay till the end.
Get behind the boys ffs! You don’t win anything without a 12th man
This 👌👌

I’m not very creative so I’m going to suggest just reusing old chants from the past, the simpler the better for our fans. 😂
Rodgers needs a better chant imo, the current one isn’t great in terms of people joining in especially after games, Why not just have ‘one Brendan Rodgers’? Worked great with Pearson.
maddison needs a chant ASAP, how about using Knockaerts old chant? Could work around the extra syllables somehow, or just revive the old Gallagher chant?
perez would fit well with iborras old chant, we could just ignore the fact he came to us from Newcastle and not directly from Spain and we’d be laughing ✌️

NO NO NO NO NO!
why are we trying to do lyrics for si senor? Why are we still trying to rip off others? It’s bad enough we’ve copied palace and wolves in recent years. I don’t expect Morrisey levels of song writing but I hate the fact someone is always trying to adapt the latest flavour of the month chant to one of our key players.
grrrrrr
It would be a joy if morrissey wrote our songs, he could target opposition defences and leave them too depressed to bother defending 😂

how about adapting the old Paul Gallagher chant for Maddison? Its simple and would catch on quick?

So he doesn't primarily pass sideways or backwards? He clearly does if you've ever watched him.
What part of what I said isn't true?
Up there with Harry Winks for me in terms of pointless players, harsh as it sounds. I mean they are both masters of their trade don't get me wrong, just takes a little more than the ability to pass it short for me to rave about a player.
