What Claudio Should Know.

Don't read the title thread. Point I was making was that Claudio, before the match against Liverpool had worked with the players for quite some weeks, been in charge of team selection for seven or eight matches, should know that without Kante, who is unique, we would struggle with just having a young Amartey in Kante's role with Drinkwater, in a two man central midfield, competing against high quality sides who outnumber our midfield. Call it arrogance if ypou like, but I am sorry, to me it's bloody obvious that we could struggle.against good sides who outnumber our 'engine room'.

So you really think the result would have been completely different with Albrighton or King playing in a midfield 3?  We would have still lost. Mendy and Schlupp were not available. So there was no point mentioning them in your opening post. Also you are very wrong if you think we would be better off selling Mahrez in Jan!

Does starting a new thread to show everyone how you know better than Ranieri turn you on? You were always on Pearson's back and now we have a few bad games you suddenly know better than the man that brought us the title.

 

Should Ranieri ignore your advise and go on to have a successful season, will you be on here to apologise? No you will be back under your rock waiting for another to chance to show what a footballing genius you are. You want to express your opinion put it in the Liverpool post match thread, or the Bruges pre-match thread, don't start new threads claiming to know better than the man in charge.

 

The only thing I need is to add you to the ignore list...

 

...aaahh that's better.

Hide under a rock? What are you on? I am always here saying what I believe in. I hide nowhere. If I were the shy retiring sort who was prone to hiding, you would not have the chance to insult me. Try putting forward an argument of your own, instaed of simply insulting people. Go on say something that could make others think., or aren't you capable?

I would have to severely question whether you watched any of last season at all?????

 

There is an energy and desire missing this season that I am sure will return - while Amartey had a good game against Swansea and Mendy looked OK against Arse until he went off we have struggled to hit teams with the intensity of last season - buy a DVD and take a look, it's night and day last season to this.

 

And don't be rude

Yes it was a bit aggressive in hindsight - I apologise. 

 

That aside, whilst I'm not arguing we are bound to under perform last season's level now we are without Kante, my original thread was to counter your claim that we had not played well this season. I would argue we played very well against both Arsenal and Swansea, whilst appaulingly in the two away games.
