AC Milan manager Sergio Conceicao says his players are "feeling the tension" after a section of fans protested during Sunday's 2-1 Serie A home defeat by Lazio. The Curva Sud stand was empty for the first 15 minutes of the game and, when the fans did arrive, they called the players "shameful" and demanded American owners RedBird sell the club. It was the Rossoneri's third straight league defeat dropping them to ninth in the table, 17 points behind leaders and city rivals Inter Milan. They were also knocked out of the Champions League play-offs by Feyenoord last month. "We discussed the atmosphere and this is the first time I've experienced this in my career. Mistakes weigh heavier under such conditions," Conceicao told DAZN. "I was a player, I know when it's like that, your boots feel like they're burning. When a dribble or a pass doesn't work or you're behind, it burns even more." Mattia Zaccagni put Lazio ahead in the first half but Samuel Chukwueze's scored a later equaliser for the hosts after a Strahinja Pavlovic red card. However, former Chelsea forward Pedro netted the winner for the visitors from the penalty spot in the eighth minute of stoppage time. "It is not an easy moment," added Conceicao. "The players feel the tension around the club. "The only way forward is to work hard, take pride in our colours and strive to change the situation."

Hmm, it's on offer for £21 so might be worth the risk. I wouldn't pay full price for it anyway.
-
Anyone recommend this on the switch? My partner just picked one up and I'm not sure if to get it.
-
I won't settle until we get something like this on and off the pitch.

I'm one of them weirdos that unless it's a team I'd actually like to see win it, I prefer the team who is expected to win it to go on and win it. I prefer Newcastle to Liverpool but still want Liverpool to win the League Cup final. I understand that might not make sense to many people

Why did I picture him walking round Home Bargains in his subs bib? Probably got the last tube of Colgate taken off him.

It feels exciting just seeing some new faces on a potential line up. I cannot wait for most of this squad to leave.

Enjoyed Beacon Hill Parkrun this week! It felt good doing some hill training and I was quite happy with my time. -

Went to Kayal in town on Saturday for the first time and was very impressed! The duck curry was amazing, but the paratha (particularly after a few beers) was unreal.

He's really dropped off, but I'd still play him because he might find form again, he's likable and he actually moves. -
I'm not turning up to this one. It would be a real statement if those fed up did the same, rather than letting Man Utd fans have their seats.

Really surprised Wolves hasn't been picked, although I haven't see what else was that weekend.

Foxes Trust Calls for Ticket Price Freeze
Stuntman_Mike replied to Foxes_Trust's topic in Leicester City Forum
Doesn't asking for a price freeze suggest the current prices are ok? @Foxes_Trust do you feel the current match day prices are ok? -

I really thought he was going to be a no nonsense type who was a real motivator. The sort who helped you pick up points in games you don't necessarily deserve, but look at last nights response to the Brentford game! Even if we lost still you expect more fight, or more about us. It was pathetic. -
I'd take Ipswich at this point.

His post match interview confirms he's given up. Absolutely no fight or motivation there at all. I think the whole set up see it as a laugh tbf. Getting away with murder -
Him having a laugh with the West Ham player at the corner they scored from tells you all you need to know. Absolutely detest the ****

Pains me to say it, but I'd sooner Thomas start.

It was actually a compliment to Cooper if anything. He acknowledged our fans after the Forest defeat, whereas Ruud (if he's still here) hasn't even clapped our fans the last few games -
Looked like the only ones you'd expect. The club is dead when you can't even get players to pretend to be arsed with a clap
