El Crapico. Nailed it 👏

Agreed. Look at him now. Repeatedly mismanaged by Rodgers.

Soumare. A non-entity of a player if ever there was one.

It’s almost as if the board, the manager and the players have been issued with a directive for the season: “Embarrass the club and infuriate the supporters as much as you can.”

Spot on. The deafening roar when that goal went in was the loudest I have ever heard in a football stadium. It still sends shivers up and down my spine just thinking about it.

If ever there was a player that symbolised this club’s decline into turgid mediocrity, it would be him. A lazy, disinterested waste of space and money who can’t defend, can’t attack and, worst of all, can’t be arsed.

The club’s recent logic-defying, dream-fulfilling trophy triumphs inevitably raised future expectations because the foundations were firmly in place for a period of sustained success. ‘Entitlement’ is just a recently introduced buzzword into the footballing lexicon that the media and fans of other clubs use to try to insult or belittle supporters of a club that has fallen on hard times and are (inevitably) angry and disappointed at how that has come to pass. The sharp decline of Leicester City is a case of mismanagement and misplaced loyalty on an embarrassingly grotesque scale that has left many fans, like myself, so numb with despondency at the way the club is now run that we no longer take up our season ticket seats because the experience is so overwhelmingly negative that it borders on the masochistic. I have followed the club for over 50 years and I have never felt so detached from it that I didn’t want to attend a game that I have already paid to watch. I feel more ‘p***** off’ than ‘entitled’.

PSG are obviously a much better team than Villa but selecting Rashford instead of Watkins was a shocking decision from Emery. He doesn’t have the intelligence or the technique to hold the ball up and bring others into play. The only time he hasn’t lost the ball in attack, Villa scored.

My sense of justice - if not rationale - demands that he (unlike that sabotaging weasel Rodgers) has the responsibility for relegation officially stamped on his CV.

You think it can’t get any worse… yet it does. Week after week. There has to be some accountability. But nothing happens. He even picks the same (losing) team again! This club is run like a corporate circus where the only performers are clowns. On the board. On the bench. On the field. And there are still some weirdly misguided fans happy to clap them into the abyss (presumably on the basis that they are ‘proper’ or ‘loyal’ supporters). You reap what you sow. Shame on all of them.

Pitiful. Embarrassing. Shameful. Humiliating. Pathetic. Normal.

As scripted

Whatever happened to questions ending in question marks? Gone the way of apostrophes, I guess.😬 In answer to the question, it won’t stop until Top gets the message from the whole fan base (or the vast majority) that his shift is well and truly over. We almost need a Ceausescu on the balcony moment for him to realise that we want him and his cronies gone. Not sure how that revolutionary turning of the tide can be recreated though. My own - and only - way to protest is to stop filling my season ticket seat. Which I (and my son next to me) have done for the last two matches and will be doing for the foreseeable…

Boycotted Brentford and Man Utd because of the kick off times - and am glad I did so given the wretched performances. Will skip Newcastle for the same reason. Not sure about Liverpool but probably worth rocking up for the last two as I see them as post-relegation Championship warm up games - and, you never know, we might actually score a goal against Southampton and Ipswich.

That’ll get the fans flooding back…

You must be kidding. In an All-time Greatest Ever Footballers list Messi is Number One. Salah maybe squeezes into the Top 50.

There’ll be a few roll neck sweaters going for a couple of quid in Leicester charity shops this weekend…

In my wisdom I decided, exceptionally, not to make the three hour round trip to the game this Friday night after work. Which means I was also thankfully not there at the final whistle to hear those idiot ‘holier than thou’ fans clapping the team off. I presume there were some still doing it even after that horror show…

Not sure how any manager survives six straight home defeats without scoring. And all with multiple goals conceded at the other end. Time to resign, Ruud, before you cause further embarrassment - both to the club and yourself.

I honestly have never known a team give so little fight in adversity. Beyond belief.

Any chance we can have that points deduction after all so that we can be put out of our misery sooner rather than later?

Players are clearly as resigned to relegation as the fans

Looking forward to when this thread title swaps ‘New’ for ‘Old’ - even if it will be far too late to rescue us.

Presumably his thinking is that our only real chance v Arsenal was when Ayew’s low cross was just nicked off Cordova-Reid’s toes. If that is so, then heaven help us.

The club basically accepted relegation by keeping the purse strings tightly closed in January. Miracles do of course happen - and the maddest thing is we are only two points from safety despite a hideously bad season - but by not strengthening an inadequate squad when they had the chance to (particularly prior to the critical Palace-Fulham double header), the club effectively threw in the towel and acknowledged defeat. If there is one glaring symptom of this club’s demise, it is the fact that a long past-it veteran striker is still starting every Premier League game up front. And, worse still, that there is no credible alternative.
