Jackster21 Posted 19 September 2015 Posted 19 September 2015 Today I'm a pleased that we got a draw against Stoke when we were 2 - 0 down and also last week when we 2 - 0 down and we ended up winning 3 - 2 but is it annoying you that we are getting comebacks instead of scoring the first goals. Also we should start to put or second half play into our first half.
justfoxes Posted 19 September 2015 Posted 19 September 2015 We can't keep allowing teams to go 1,2,3 goals ahead and think we can always get a comeback result even tho most of us fans always believe we can get something from any game! But we need to tighten up our defence whether we buy real quality in the transfer window or give Huth Delaetand Morgan a kick up the arse, or do we drop 1or two I'm not a fan of changing a decent squad but we have to do something about leaking silly goals of which some should never have gone for eg Morgan's attempted karate kick clearance that let stokes second be scored. I'm disappointed with Inler so far we had such high hopes of him but there is still time, Kante looks the real deal such a live wire and to think he can only get better, Mahrez has been a revelation and with Vardys form only helped on by his international duties. We are currently third in the premier league now only 3 points behind Manchester City and only behind West Ham with goal difference who would of thought that the beginning of August to how well we have performed now we have West Ham at the KP in the cup on Tuesday so do we try a different formation of players at the back or do we give Delaet Morgan and Huth a bit longer ? We have had an awesome season so far and may it continue for a long time to come !! Onwards and Upwards and in Claudio we trust !!
red5 Posted 19 September 2015 Posted 19 September 2015 The manager needs to start the best team, instead of playing the worst player in the last game, only having to take him off when we're 2-0 down.
Jackster21 Posted 20 September 2015 Author Posted 20 September 2015 Claudio needs to get in a new CB in Janury to replace Morgan or Huth. I personally prefer Huth to Morgan and I think Morgan played bad against Stoke. Are offence is strong with Vardy, Mahrez, Okazaki and Dyer, but our defence needs a solid CB.
HighPeakFox Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 Morgan has one bad game (it seems) and he needs to be replaced. Was he not MOTM for some vs Villa? I'm all for discussion and debate, but I am afraid that for some people - to paraphrase Einstein - a spinal cord suffices
foxfanazer Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 the final result is all that mattersTrue but if we cut out mistakes we could've won today
Jackster21 Posted 20 September 2015 Author Posted 20 September 2015 I admit Morgan only played bad yesterday but you have seen how many goals we have conceded because of our defence. If we're going to start picking up some more 3 points our defence needs some work and I think we can get a better replacement for Morgan. We have not had any big challenges so far this season but when we start to play bigger clubs with strong attacks our defence won't be able to cope.
HighPeakFox Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 Perhaps if we played better as a team for 90, rather than half a game..............
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 "We have not had any big challenges this season" Sorry, but this is poppycock Most of the teams we have played so far, were expected to do far better than us this season, considering that we were the bookies favourite to go down
urban.spaceman Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 Claudio's still working out his best startling line up and formation but his mid-game tactics and substitutions have been spot on and inspired so far. I think he's seen the last few games (Bournemouth, Villa & Stoke) as opportunities to tinker with the XI against weaker opposition and has been surprised that we've gone behind each time, but has managed to fix it each time. Arsenal is our biggest test so I'm sure he'll have it pretty much nailed on for then. I hope.
Stan Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 "We have not had any big challenges this season" Sorry, but this is poppycock Most of the teams we have played so far, were expected to do far better than us this season, considering that we were the bookies favourite to go down  No we weren't.  Many of the 'pundits' had us nailed on for relegation, but not the bookies.
Carl the Llama Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 No we weren't. Â Many of the 'pundits' had us nailed on for relegation, but not the bookies. We were about 5th favourites for the drop weren't we? Â That hardly screams "this team will be fine".

Carl the Llama Posted 20 September 2015 Posted 20 September 2015 https://m.oddschecker.com/t/football/english/premier-league/relegation I said we were. Â Obviously today's odds are going to tell a different story.
Jackster21 Posted 20 September 2015 Author Posted 20 September 2015 Sunderland, Villa, Bournemouth were going to finish higher than us? Three clubs we have played so far. We haven't played against any club yet who will end up in the top 4. Spurs and West Ham were tough but neither of them I would consider a real "challenge". Stoke are about the same level as us.
Stan Posted 21 September 2015 Posted 21 September 2015 We were about 5th favourites for the drop weren't we?  That hardly screams "this team will be fine".  Probably coming across as a little pedantic now, but if  the pundits had said we'll finish 15th/16th then I don't think we'd have been too upset

Bayfox Posted 21 September 2015 Posted 21 September 2015 Bookies had us at 4/1 for the drop at the start of season. Obviously the 3 promoted clubs were the faves. They normally are.
Stadt Posted 21 September 2015 Posted 21 September 2015 I admit Morgan only played bad yesterday but you have seen how many goals we have conceded because of our defence. If we're going to start picking up some more 3 points our defence needs some work and I think we can get a better replacement for Morgan. We have not had any big challenges so far this season but when we start to play bigger clubs with strong attacks our defence won't be able to cope. Â The defence aren't the only players responsible for keeping the ball out of the net, Inler didn't follow Bojan. Â Â And th ball shouldn't even have reached Morgan as Huth let the ball bounce.
Thracian Posted 21 September 2015 Posted 21 September 2015 Have any of the bookies given odds on how big a start we'll give the opposition in our next match? Â
