Collymore Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 It beggars belief his starting formation today. What the hell was he thinking of? I'm all for blooding new players at the right time but including Dodoo in the squad today was a crime over Kramaric (I'll forgive him if he was injured) but surely Ulloa must still come first as a sub? Anyone could see that Drinkwater was a complete liability and needed replacing. I hope even at his old age he can see the errors of his ways today and learn from it.

benpicko Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 King was worse than Drinkwater today, Drinkwater wasn't awful in the second half as he was in the first but King didn't really improve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filbertstreet Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 could have been worse, ended up with a point somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGBFitness Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 That cap must of messed up with his tinkering. Took cap off second half and we played better. #losethehatorloseyourjob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 Thought Ranieri changed the team well. Excellent management. Mahrez and King were terrible today and De LAET must have cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collymore Posted 29 August 2015 Author Share Posted 29 August 2015 King was worse than Drinkwater today, Drinkwater wasn't awful in the second half as he was in the first but King didn't really improve I think King was doing major dirty work to release Kante. Drinkwater couldn't trap a bag of cement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 Made a few errors today. Firstly, not starting Shinji and changing the formation. He then didn't change things quick enough even though we were getting torn apart. Didn't agree with taking Mahrez off either but we did need to make a change. Keeping Drinky and King on seemed very odd as they were very poor. Would have liked to seen Inler. Dodoo instead of Ulloa or Kram was also an odd one for me. We got a point, but I think that was more down to great individual play by Schlupp and Vardy rather than Claudio's changes. This is still very early on and to be fair to him, only the first poor game we have had so we can allow him a mistake or two. Interesting to see what he does for next week. Would actually like him to Tinker! RB needed and to start Inler and Shinji Happy with 1-1 considering how we played. Probably fortunate that Gradel went off too.

Benguin Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 He (and a lot of you guys might I add) see something in Drinkwater that I must be completely blind too. De Laet and Drinkwater were absolutely horrendous today. Id like to see Inler and King vs Villa with Kante playing wide. Schlupp and Kante on that left flank are insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 Dodoo is a winger, Leo and Kram are strikers. How is it that nobody seems to be able to grasp that fact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Lisemore Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 If Dodoo came on and scored the winner, nobody would be moaning. We got a good point today away from home against a decent side, still unbeaten = happy days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank to be Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 I thought it would take a disappointing defeat before we got a thread like this, but no it's an away draw against a team fresh from smashing four past West Ham.

shen Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 If Dodoo came on and scored the winner, nobody would be moaning. We got a good point today away from home against a decent side, still unbeaten = happy days. ...Except he didn't. Okazaki offered nothing when he came on, again. I'm starting to wane a little bit in regards to him. He seems like a headless chicken a lot of the time. A very expensive and not as efficient Dickov. What do Krama and Ulloa have to do to get a look in? His faith in Dodoo is admirable, but in a game where we're chasing the game and can hardly get a foothold, get someone on who can hold it up or flick it on (Ulloa) or someone who can take the ball forward and be unpredictable (Kramaric, Mahrez). Don't bring on an inexperienced youngster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes_rule1978 Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 It isn't embarrassing even losing by the odd goal to Bournemouth away, they will pick up some surprise results there and make it very hard for teams. So a draw is actually decent and keeps the momentum going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't bring on an inexperienced youngster! I thought Okazaki helped us a lot. We held the ball up better with him on and he closed Bournemouth down so they couldn't build attacks so easily from the back. Should have started. Would like to see Ulloa or Kram coming on instead of Dodoo though. Kram must really be struggling in training to be dropped from the squad completely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashfosse Posted 29 August 2015 Share Posted 29 August 2015 Shocking performance?! His changes worked didn't they? Yes the wrong system or starting 11 but don't forget hes a new manager who wants to see how this team can do with different formations in competitive games. Typical foxestalk overreaction. Still unbeaten WYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
