  1. Interesting to see how we play against Watford No Winks and no obvious back up Still No Ndidi, Yunus or Praet? Casadei not suited to the system Is he going to force players into the system or change system to suit the available players?
  2. Don’t think he will go in January - he’ll wait for a free at the end of the season
  3. Enzo forgot his number so couldn't ask the 4th official to take him off??
  4. That's the tactics, not JJ. He has been asked to stay back so we have 3 defenders so the opposite full back can move into midfield. It does mean the wingers have to rely a bit more on the Number 8's for support which is currently missing. When was the last time you saw Ricci running past on the overlap - it is just not how Enzo wants to play
  5. Today we still created enough to do better. I'm surprised we didn't make more changes and use fresh legs to take advantage of their tiring defence (only the Leeds match - did we not create)
  6. We started the season and in our 1st 4 matches we didn't take the lead until after our 2nd change. Fresh legs, I thought was part of the gameplan against teams tired from chasing all game We had a good run of scoring early and now we just appear to wait for a goal instead of changing the personel Shouldn't have lost today, we weren't that bad, but just couldn't score - some days you get them, but the lack of subs irriates me when we have the strongest bench the championship is likely ever to see. More than today, It is still the Leeds game where we created nothing and still didn't change anything that annoys me
  7. Has he even been to the last 2 match's - because he appears to refuse to use our ridiculously strong bench
  8. Did the same against Leeds - all of a sudden He is refusing to make changes - I don't understand - part of the system is make them tired and then chances will come & fresh legs was part of that and Now he is doing nothing to influence matches
  9. A lot has been said about us scoring late goals and the fact we have scored a lot in the last 30 minutes (and not conceded a single goal) so we have to believe - 13 wins from 15 still speaks volumes However it has started to look like we play just expecting a late goal and not actually forcing them to defend. We are keeping the ball, but I don't think we are moving teams about and wearing them down like we did at the start of the season - but a 2nd half to prove me wrong would be most welcome
  10. OMG - This always reminds me of the days before the Internet everywhere and the longest 16 hours of my life waiting ... before finding out about this goal The only Wembley match I've missed in my life because I was on holiday in the US with my grandparents and flying home on the day of the final. I timed it perfectly, the match had just finished and called home from the hotel to find out the result just as the coach pulled up to take us to the airport. My Dad said it finished 0-0, we are in extra time and just as my Nan snatched the phone of me to hang up as the coach was waiting I heard my Dad shout "Middlesboro have just scored" I spent the whole journey home pestering my Grandparents to find out the result - Dad was winding me up wasn't he - But there was no way of knowing. Got home in the early hours, no papers anywhere - Coach trip from Heathrow to Leicester before I got home ran in to switch Ceefax on and eventually found out that my Dad hadn't been winding me up - but Heskey had equalised and we still had another cup final to play
  11. Little - was the first name I thought too Three consecutive top 6 finishes in a competitive 2nd tier before getting us promoted with in a typical 2nd tier squad. But my Nan who has Darlington as her 2nd team was ecstatic when we appointed him and he broke her heart the way he left - so not sure I've forgiven him yet!
  12. Just to confirm, being arrested for swinging it around at Bradgate is not the same as being scouted!
  13. Red Flag - Do we get a standing restart with Lando in P2? Hulk clips Albon and managed to end Albon's, Magnussen's & Piastri's race. Can Leclerc rejoin - doesn't he has to get his car back on it's own power? Sergeant can change off the Mediums & run the entire race on the preferred softs (he will still have to pit, 1 set won't last the entire race, but a chance for points)
  14. WTF - Leclerc just making sure Max's doesn't even get challenged into 1st corner Correction -I think the car broke (Hydraulics)
  15. 6 people have selected for Enzo to leave Just what are you doing on the Foxes Talk Forum: Forest fans worrying there spell as top East Midlands team is going to be short-lived? Other Championship fans want their team have a chance? Or just Patson Daka, Danny Ward, Daniel Iversen, Harry Souttar, Wanya Marcel & Brendon Rodgers teaming up against him?
  16. The Kid has talent and we have seen glimpses of it, but he does look like he struggles with this system & that was obvious on Friday. He looked glad to be substituted. We are not going to change so he has to adapt quickly or I don't we are doing him any favours by keeping him on loan. (I remember Kane didn't look good for us when on loan here because we were playing him out of position & he didn't turn out to bad, the same with Casadei I see a good played unsuited by our tactics)
  17. The Championship does have goal-line technology and the 1st thing the ref did was check his watch
  18. Very impressive- 15 games in and 13 wins and 2 losses - far outperformed any expectations. We have outperformed or just outlasted nearly every team we have played Also, 1 loss to Hull was just one of those days - we had 20+ shots and just could not hit the target, I think we could have played until midnight that night and still would not have hit the target even after Hull went home - sometimes it just goes like that, but I still think our performance was good enough. Leeds match on Friday was the 1st time I feel we were 2nd best, we usually grind teams down, but on this occasion I credit Farke with his tactical changes at half time and doubling up on our wingers. With Ricci moving into the middle, JJ doesn't overlap it completely nullified the threat of our wingers. Unluckily our injuries are hitting our number 8's - Yunus, Ndidi & Praet all injured and although I still rate Casadei as a very good potential talent, he is currently struggling in this system - nullified wingers and under-strength number 8's meant we could not move from defence to attack. Although I wanted to see more changes on Friday, Plan A has worked very well in previous matches in the final 15-30 minutes and Leeds will be one of the best sides we face this season. Only conceded from poor defending on a set-play.
  19. Just seen the goal again. Vesty, Faes & KDH stand in a line and do not move from the moment the corner is taken until the ball hits the net. They attacked and completely outnumbered us at the near post and then the rebound fell to 1 of 4 Leeds players in the 6 yard box. Not 1 Leicester player followed the ball in, instead they stood in a line nowhere near a single Leeds player
  20. When plan A works as often as it has this season- so do I. But I remain very irritated tonight
  21. True and we are not going to win every match. The players can have an off match, but why only 2 subs and no tactical changes when we were clearly 2nd best tonight?
  22. Teams are adapting to combat our style and we had no answer today
  23. No plan B and lack of substitutes when needed. Deservedly beaten - outplayed and outthought.
  24. 96th minute free kick to be taken by Justin - cos he is known for his set pieces or assists
  25. Why so little subs??? Is Enzo happy with this?
