BenTheFox Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Albrighton looked like a pub player tonight. Can only imagine the stick Schlupp would have got if he put that performance in. Were these set of players always as bad on the ball as they are now?I'm just so frustrated after watching that. I don't think there was particularly much in the game but Bournemouth actually looked like a football team and deserved to win.

But hey ho, great to see you give your fully subjective input once more (without any intentional wind-up involved). Welcome back! There's a difference between attacking crosses and long balls. I've seen Andy King score some cracking headers but you wouldn't see him winning long balls in the air.

Musa, pace yes brain no. King, Passenger game passes him by. Amartey, Not confident or good enough to play CM. Morgan, Not invincible...Sign a CB in Jan. Slimani, Can't work him out...Still unsure if he's worth £10m let alone £30m. Rant Done, Truly disappointed tonight. But Bring on Stoke...Kasper Drinky Mendy and Simpson all in please! When did we sign Rant Done?
adam Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Excellent news, Claudio says we will continue to fight. get in
foxyblue Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Claudio coming out with same old shite sayings and saying he is happy with his new signings.lol

foxes_rule1978 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 That first half has truly left me furious... they wiped the floor with us because we didn't bother trying to win the ball. That was the same thing that has happened especially away from home all season. No one wanted to close them down in their half...
Izzy Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 I wish folk would stop banging on about poor recruitment. The majority of our squad are PL winners FFS. We've got talented players and should easily be capable of top half. I don't know what the fvck it is but I don't believe it's down to poor recruitment. Of pre season for that matter. Just excuses IMO.

Albrighton has been shocking all season but seem to get jumped on if we criticise him. Get fed up of seeing him check onto his right foot and play and overplayed long ball to Mahrez. Gray should be given a run - at least he gets the ball down and runs at defenders.
Fox92 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Tbf to Ranieri he isn't exactly going to come out and publicly criticise his signings.

Slimani's header against Burnley at home or the one against Porto is the type of goal I'm talking about.
CosbehFox Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 9 minutes ago, Dr The Singh said: It's about the pressing, and forcing mistakes, with Kante we could do that with 2 in midfield, but as it stands, away from home there is no pressing, there's ample time and space for crosses to go in and attackers to play through us!! This is tactics, to sit back and absorb, rather then sit back, press, force the mistake and counter!! Exactly Kante allowed us to play two in midfield. Watch three man midfields, a player is always able to pick the ball up from the centre backs too.

He has to be honest with the fans, that performance was not acceptable!!
orangecity23 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 2 minutes ago, The People's Hero said: We also discussed donuts. We need some closure on that too. Some kind of after the event thinking. Many donuts have holes in the middle, a characteristic they share with our midfield. We need to get a quality jam filling into the centre of the park, and use its stickiness to win the ball back before passing it to our sugary bits on the outside.
Buzzell Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 We all know Ranieri isn't going to come out and slate the players. It's no shock he's happy with the commitment and effort from the lads.
Franks boys Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 7 minutes ago, Goober said: Ranieri proves he's learned nothing again. Style of football is embarrassing and ineffective. We DO have good footballers in this team, some of the stuff we played last year was brilliant; Man City away, Swansea away, Newcastle away etc. We're lazy and have absolutely no tempo these days. Serious questions over Ranieri's position for me again. Praying he reverts back to what we had at the start of last season. Has Ranieri lost the respect of the dressing room with apparently £100k salaries + bmwi8 + champions league bonus's.

shen Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Only had one eye on the game, but it looked like we were far more positive than pre-Man City. Obviously it's a bad result, and we probably didn't do enough, but surely an improvement on recent weeks in general? I actually saw chances and openings this game and it's not like Bournemouth carved us open time after time.
milney2i3 Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 I agree schmeichel commands his area much more and that gives your defenders confidencw, we missed drinky and should of played okazaki
SecretPro Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Claudio needs to learn a few new phrases and stop praising dismal performances and worse still, dismal effort. It's all getting a bit Zzzzzzz now and im saying this as Claudio's biggest fan
whoareyaaa Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Surely the owners must be getting slightly worried now, same poor performances weak in, weak out.
Guest Posted 13 December 2016 Posted 13 December 2016 Lost for words....it's a roller coaster life being a city supporter
