Astonishing if true.

Must be lovely to score a goal.

What was the last game Top turned up to?

How slow is our build up play as well. Its appalling. Teams can get into any formation they want when the Jakub passes the ball to Vestergaard, who goes sideways / backwards (and maybe to Sourmare who give it straight back again). I was raging watching this when we were chasing a game. Also - did everyone notice his little cameo up front towards the end of the game on Saturday. I couldn't work out if it was under instructions or if he just couldn't be arsed running back to defend.

Page is on international duty, and isnt Monga ill? Nelson i agree with. I still think Aluko starting is very unlikely, but i want him on the bench instead of VK (who is probably injured anyway).

Like it, although its potentially harsh on Nelson. Would almost consider Aluko on the left and Hamza at RB, but then we are back to selecting w@nkers.

Really hasn't.

He wont do it though. All attacking transitions MUST start with Vestergaard. His undroppable. Cos, you know, it's working just fine.

Ironicall, i think Bobby at 10 with no Soumare / Skipp is the best of the worst. That way James can play in his best position. I still hate saying that though.

Ramsey injured mate

Don't understand why we haven't done this already?

If he starts Skipp again, it will be toxic. We've literally run out of players.

Can you settle a disagreement about that for me too? You think that was 'entertainment'?

Yeah - I remember it at the time. Balagué is a media wh*re though, so im starting to doubt the validity of this to some degree. Wanting to change things and club agreeing too are very different things.

Do we know what these changes were?

Just saying what I am seeing. I presume it’s faster transitions and more direct. But it’s not the gestation of someone seeing what they are asking for.

Did they sign him? After 10 games they are currently 4 points from top spot. Seems like he wasn't the reason why they ended up 5th. If the rest of the squad is made up of relatively better players then he can be made to look better than he is - but clearly they didnt like him enough to keep him.

Dont know if you go to games. We pointed out yesterday he spent so much of the game waving them up the pitch furiously when we were in possession. One moment in particular stood out when VK got the ball in the first half and he waved them up the pitch, only for VK to end up in no mans land and pass sideways. You could clearly see Marti was pissed off. I really dont think they are doing what is asked. Which is a problem in itself, but we've seen this time and time again with this bunch.

We've seen 1 plenty of times. This happened with Ramsey against Millwall when he whipped a great cross to where a striker should have been. I think we saw it will Riccy and James a few times yesterday. With 3, Ramsey is screwed and i doubt we get to see him again. We have no natural 10 in a Marti system. With 4, we have the slowest CB back in the world (that our fans seem to think is out best defender). Causes us all sorts of issues defending transitions. Solution is change the CB's from a team who play out the back to a team that can actually defend. Its an obvious one for me. But whether or not we actually improve remains to be seen Did you notice Marti MADE the players go around the whole pitch yesterday. Very brave move from the manager who could end up losing the dressing room over it. Makes me think all sorts of things could be worked on and just not happening on the pitch. At the end of the day, if players arent doing what they are asked then nothing is going to improve. And a lot of these players have form with that sadly.

Where we are right now there isn't one. Whatever he does he is on to a hiding to nothing now. We also don't know what pressure he is under from the board to play certain players etc. With this bunch of players, i dont see any formation magically working anymore. Ruud tried that last season and they remained sh1te. I presume Marti's only choice is to stick with is, tickle everyones balls in the hope that they find some confidence from somewhere or even we get a bit of luck to see us through some results. Also, I presume the hope is that other teams in the Championship somehow forget the formula of how to play us, something that was worked out long before Marti came here.

You spoke really, really well there. Great. Really shoddy they didn't get back to you after that comment from Chris about the bench which is proof he's not really seen that bench play, or that he hasnt taken into consideration the fees paid for that bench.

They are 4th from bottom and Still had pretty much all pre season. Another fraud manager who managed to build a PR machine around him.

What's in it for him then? Unless there is a story that pays in top wedge then i strongy doubt it. I doubt any media is paying big for a story about Leicesters ownership right now. And ive always felt he held the ownership in pretty good regard.

I know that. You know that. But Top......

The whole system, which is slow / predictable and easy to play against is built around Vestergaard. He’s a one trick pony and flat track bully who can’t do anything else. Millwall showed exactly what you need to do against him.
