Well we were 2 nil up. The defence let him down but that back 4 is what most people were happy with.

It's not the starting eleven, it's the changes he's made that let some of us down. Oh well, onwards and upwards

I hope Ranieri has learned that we need to play with an actual DM against the big sides now Kante has gone. Been picked apart down the middle by Liverpool and Chelsea 

A real quality DM, the Kings and Amarteys of the world don't do it for me

Drinkwater will be cream crackered! 

120 minutes for what? 

They'll drop training intensity and remind most of the squad that they used to do this in the Championship.

 

These are masters of their trade with world class support available.

For some reason....... He ain't listening!?

Meltdown? Seems to be like almost everyone is primarily annoyed about the same thing as you mate. The only other thing is a few people saying it's frustrating to watch us go 2-0 up and then get knocked out. You e been around long enough to know this is nowhere near a meltdown

There is a lot of player slating, it's one of those things, players not fit, inexperienced, or not good enough.

What I expected, just fingers crossed, the first teamers don't get injured.

no ulloa

We got "picked apart" tonight because Wasyl is about 1000 years old and was being undone every time a Chelsea forward broke into a light jog.

 

Nothing to do with a lack of defensive midfielder.

They were ripping us apart all second half mate, Wasyl just made the result certain.

I thought ulloa and Vardy were good subs. We would have scored if King was good. Wasyl ruined the game

Morgan is weak without Huth

He's not that good with him.

King actually looks like he's gone downhill as a player recently. Must have been spending the summer with the Welsh that's done it...

From long balls over the top.

 

Wasyl's idiocy made the result certain but we were virtually playing with 10 when he was on the pitch anyway.

Amartey could be the man. His positional sense is a bit off at the moment, but concentrating his role on screening the back 4 could nullify that

[The Guvnor]

Well we managed to fcuk that up rather well

[brucey]

The cryochamber will need to be put into overdrive

[justfoxes]

What can we say ??

The three first teamers who used to play 3 games a week regularly in the Champ? Told Wasyl to get sent off did he? Told us to concede 2 did he? 

 

Sometimes the blame doesn't always fall with the manager. 

It's literally the one time I feel he's ever got anything wrong... But I feel he has and that's just my opinion, risked players when there is a trip to Manchester on Saturday

He looked fat and slow, like he was wearing ankle weights.  His positioning was awful at times and just ran around with little purpose
