Stoke (away) match thread

[Gary Eatfood]

Could be looking at a cricket score here guys.

2/2?

[Carl the Llama]

That first goal is so bad from all of our defence it literally makes me want to be sick.

[TheUltimateWinner]

Wonder what will be said in the locker room

 

You guys play like that now you're gonna get a pizza me 

[dmayne7]

Defending on both goals was laughable. Midfield has been poor. Inler looks well off the pace and Drinkwater, 1 great pass and tackle aside has been shocking. Vardy not involved and doesn't look as hungry. Schlupp's been the most positive player going forward.

[HoustonFox]

Inler should never have started and Kante should be in his position, and albrightin should be on the wing

This would be my only change at HT. Think the front two should stay a little longer.

[Tielemans63]

Poor old Jeff is getting rinsed on the left as Kante keeps wandering inside - which I font blame him for, he's being asked to play a completely unfamiliar position

I'd take Inler off for Albrighton and move Kante back inside. I'd probably bring Leo on for Shinji as he's been anonymous. Vardy hasn't been much better but there's always a chance he'll make something happen.

Stoke have played well but it's disappointing how easy we've made it for them.

De laet and Schlupp getting caught up field . Need some width .

[Guest MarshallForEngland]

Don't agree with the amount of blame being put on RDL for their first goal. 4 other players behind him, nobody tracked the runner, everybody ball-watching. Yes RDL got beat but we had plenty of bodies back to deal with the threat, it was just far too casual from us.

 

I agree with what people are saying about Inler at the moment. He's obviously got a lot of quality about him but he's not accustomed to the pace of this league and what's expected of him. Cambiasso just seemed to get it straight away last season, especially the work required off the ball to close down and break up play in the middle of the park. Inler doesn't seem to get it yet.

[Saxondale]

Not good first half. But then it wasn't last week either.

 

Too many misplaced passes; they're making us rush on the ball.

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Second half, come on Leicester!!!! Comeback kings

[yorkie1999]

Just seen their first goal. 4 defenders in a line , their player runs straight through fvckung kids football.

[Guest]

Mahrez had a poor first half last week and then.....

 

Let's hope it's same again.

 

I'd take Inler or Danny off  - we don't need both - get Kanté in the middle and Albrighton on to give us some crosses

 

CR always takes Okazaki off - be nice to see Krammy on.

[Vacamion]

Yes we are losing and yes Stoke ain't Villa, but we are capable of getting something out if this game.

Next goal is pretty important.

If we DO lose, let's have some perspective. We can't expect brilliance every game.

[Riot Van]

if CR takes kante off for albrighton it will be a travesty 

[lgfualol]

If Fuchs was on the bench I'd bring him on for Inler. Schlupp on the wing is better than schlupp at LB

[benpicko]

It's like every match Ranieri forgets that we're shit playing like this and only remembers at half time

[Sampson]

Schluppers

Are you kidding? After he just stood there not looking at Bojan, playing him inside for their first? It was amateur level defending from him.

[TheUltimateWinner]

Put Kasper up front 

[Guest Col city fan]

Andy King must be wondering what he's done wrong I imagine. Is he on the bench?

To replace King, a player who started the season with presence and composure to be replaced by Inler is a bizarre decision.

The midfield should be King and Drinkwater with Kante playing just behind them. Leicester City struggle when the midfield gets over-run.

[kingfox]

Albrighton for Inler, put Kante in the middle.

Ulloa on for Okazaki.

[The Doctor]

Yes we are losing and yes Stoke ain't Villa, but we are capable of getting something out if this game.

I don't expect brilliance. I expect competence at the very least.

[Guest]

Just seen their first goal. 4 defenders in a line , their player runs straight through fvckung kids football.

 

RDL didn't get back from his attack and then was playing catchup. Huth didn't know whether to cover for him or stay with the attacker, Morgan lost sight off their scorer.

[lgfualol]

Ergh god, the game carries on in 6 minutes. I dont want anymore. 

[eunmac]

May as well give Kramaric a run out.

[JAPANFOX1]

Wonder what will be said in the locker room

Where are they? At high school?
