I agree find it so annoying that so many of our so called die hard fans on the various podcasts never even attend matches. Don't know how they can call themselves fans esp Lox off Blue tinted glasses lives in Leicester not been to a single game this season

Totally dominated Villa 2nd half Vardy missed a setter should have had a penalty and had a goal disallowed Palace game they got a dodgy VAR decision then a moment of Madness by Coady with seconds remaining, Its swings and roundabouts , Notice you ignore the fact we missed 2 good chances against Ipswich in the first 15 minutes btw -
Trouble is most of the podcasts are by plastic fans who never attend matches. The guy Lox who has the podcast Blue Tinted glasses lives in Leicester but don't attend a single match how can you take them seriously?

Where you saying the same about Vardy when he was missing sitters under Cooper? The one against Spurs and a couple v Villa spring instantly to mind -

Believe it or not I'm not a great Cooper fan and I'm not saying he was great but he was picking up points which we have been unable to do since he left. Regarding Ndidi yes he was in the side that picked up all our points this season but I don't think he's been great and I think BS a better player -

Would that be the same Ndidi who got us relegated last time round? Abdul had one good half v Southampton Mads outstanding but most of his best games like Arsenal and Chelsea were games we lost anyway he barely had a save to make against Bournemouth or Southampton in the games we won -

When they sacked him they had 14 points from 16 games they would have needed another 13 points from 22 games to have avoided relegation they were never going down -

Agreed you only have to look at the Forest side under him poor football unconvincing but he was one of the few mangers who kept up a promoted side and they weren't in the bottom 3 when he got sacked last season -

So because Ward Thomas McAteer have played the odd game you think that makes them first team players plus Coady was a reserve under Cooper Skipp was in and out same with Ayrew who played up front in this match and El Khannouss and BS were squad players at the time. Only Justin who got dropped the previous match and Okoli could be considered first team players -

We lost to Forest Chelsea and Man United away all expected defeats the games before that we drew with Ipswich and won back to back games v Bournemouth and Southampton -
Can I ask who you think will sign Coady and match the salary we pay him.

You are aware we played our reserves in the cup match against a full strength United side Wolves and Ipswich took points at home not at Old Trafford -

Yep let's just ignore the fact we played our reserves in the United Cup game when they played a full strength side -

After the abuse Ward took v Wolves no chance don't forget he picked Ricardo in the end and started to play more Enzo ball to to appease the fans and even if he did we would still be in the same position just would probably have lost by more -

People who say we were lucky to beat Bourmouth when we should have been 3 up at half time conveniently ignore the fact we were lucky to beat West Ham -

Well under Cooper we were unbeaten against bottom 6 sides Ipswich Southampton Palace and Everton just played 2 bottom 6 sides under Ruud can't score a goal let alone get a point -

Amazing that nobody takes into account all sides have injuries esp this stage of the season. For example Cooper came up against a full strength Villa side Ruud played a Villa side missing 5 players -

Don't understand how they judge it maybe because his pass to Vardy took a deflection notice the goal against Villa wasn't counted as an asset for Vardy either -
All strikers miss chances Andy Cole finished with around 170 PL goals but missed chances by the bucket load. Remember Glenn Hoddle not picking him for England saying he needed 5 chances to score a goal.

31 isn't old in the modern game and regarding Ayrew thought it was 5M but either way you don't get much for that amount anymore we spent 11M on Danny Ward who played 2 matches for Liverpool -

He provided the assist for the Vardy goal v Brighton and 6 goals from 17 starts last season is impressive for an attacking midfielder plus he was a free transfer most throught it was a good signing at the time -

I have agreed that Skipp was a poor signing BDR on paper was a good signing over 150 PL games in a useful Fulham side 25 goals and not particularly old at 31 it's just not worked out plus he was a free transfer Ayrew is fine as a squad player -

Hindsight is a wonderful thing BDR played 33 times in a very good Fulham side last season and scored 6 goals he was a good signing on paper that's just not worked out Ayrew is a useful squad player and has scored important goals agree Skipp was a poor signing -

Steve Cooper is a curious one don't see anything in him that's impressive but yet somehow he's been successful everywhere. Great success with England at youth Level 2 play offs with Swansea worked miracles with Forest and managed nearly a point a game with the Foxes . Can we really just put it down to luck? -

Not true off the top of my head I recall Vardy missing a 1 on 1 against Spurs we also missed several chances against Villa not too mention the open goal Ayrew missed at Palace
