fuchsntf Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 With these performances, not of late, but the whole season..Close the January transfer thread..!!!! We wont interest one top player... We seem to have a bunch of Grifters...Mickey Stone should take some of them off us, Hustlers not foxes should be our new nickname... I still maintain the forwards have a massive excuse, they have to provide marvels living off scraps, Nobody helps Mahrez, when he is surrounded. The defence has imploded, Huth and Morgan had their last throw last season, and became heroes. Nobody but nobody could envisage their playing demise, in such a short time. If we couldnt get cover we should of kept Moore and RDL. Not because they would of performed miracles, but we could of at least of got Defensive changes and rotation. 1pt from 3 easier games. Management and Claudio even if they wanted to keep loyal to the PL title players, they should of bought basic cover. We were champions, we should of afforded that risk. Even with King, James, Chilwell, Amartey in the background, we played too safe financially...!! I reckon Mahrez, Vardy look poor because we arent holding the midfield, so the oppi can defend against occasional forward pressure.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armatey did pop up a lot but his ball control was terrible which meant he gave it away lots. King was like the invisible man. Aside from that they were fantastic.

adam Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 Hopeless. Change of tactics next week or we will get well beaten. A 442 with the clowns we had playing in the centre today wouldn't be good enough in the championship. Mahrez and Vardy need a few weeks off. Don't look interested at all or good enough. Right in the relegation mix now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as Amartey wins it, King drops in about 4 yards next to him wanting a pointless ball. When he gets it, 90% of the time he passes it backwards and slows the game down. He doesn't put his foot in, he doesn't make intelligent moves, never jumps for a ball and plays aimless long balls out for throw-ins and goal kicks. He's awful. He may be playing against 3 men, but Drinky does regularly, so does Amartey. King is shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr The Singh Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 I love my club, players, managers etc will come and go, I couldn't give a shit about them. There are too many fanboys in my opinion. We are not in a good position, if things continue, we will get relegated. Something has to change. Constantly in today's match our midfield was mentioned, it's not good enough for a 2 man operation, and without DD it's laughable. The defence are looking jagged. CR has to get his arse in gear, he is responsible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterborofox Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 Our squad seems to have aged massively over the summer. Huth and Morgan look like donkeys and Vardy looks a yard slower. Just look so poor and all the energy and pace has gone. Surely a formation change needs doing and likes of Gray in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this to an extent. They weren't great today but there was nothing they could do against that midfield 3. Ranieri set us up totally wrong today, and judging by his post-match comments it looks like he's encouraging all this hoofball we're seeing. Nowhere near good enough from him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanguedocFox Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 Boro fans much fvckin hate us - and with good reason. I was at the League Cup Final (both games) where they could have/should have/didn't win either game. They've never won at the KP, and haven't beaten us anywhere since 2002 - despite scoring three against us on two occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxfanazer Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 Piss poor again and didn't deserve a point. Again Ranieri thinks we played well which is concerning.

deep blue Posted 26 November 2016 Share Posted 26 November 2016 The worst thing for me is that we start almost every game at walking pace - no engagement with the opposition, no intent. This is totally unacceptable, irrespective of individual ability or formation. Given our 2-man central midfield too, this hands the initiative totally to the opposition, puts us on the back foot. We win hardly any first or second balls and the opposition totally boss the game with little resistance from our players. The game is often lost, or nearly so, in the first 20 mins. We don't learn, we still keep doing it. Why? As far as our performances are concerned, there are two basic things that need to change, We can't persist with the 2 man midfield. Some alternative way of playing must be found. And our forward-going players must be more fluid so that they give more passing options and pose more problems for the opposition defence. Secondly, there should be no sacred cows. Ranieri must accept that many of our stars of last season, and fixtures in the team during this season, are simply not cutting it. He should be prepared to start "second string" players as they seem more up for it than the current first choices. Slim, Gray, Musa, even Geoff will probably show more directness and desire. Consideration should be given to Hernandez, Benny and Chilwell in defence. Would be interesting to see how James would shape up. We have the squad to perform at least adequately. Let's use it sensibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
