EnderbyFox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Christ that was uninspiring, picked a brilliant game to televise there Sky. Absolutely no attacking intent for large portions of that second half, an absolute snooze fest. Happy new year
pSinatra Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Would have taken a draw before kick off & that's what we played for. 2 clean sheets on the bounce & 4 pts is surely a positive
Guest Col city fan Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Anyone happy with getting a point in that game clearly isn't a fan of football. You'll struggle to see a worse game in 2017. We defended resolutely, for sure, but if were up against anyone any good today, we'd have lost by three. The gap between the strikers and the midfield is huge. Our forwards had nothing to work off. Terrible game of football.. but at least we snatched a point I guess. I just expect more from LCFC..that was boring and dreadful.
Nalis Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 It will take some effort from the other matches to move this from the final MOTD slot.

psychonaut Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Absolutely fvcking woeful performance. Why as champions are we playing for a 0-0 against relegation fodder clearly there for the taking?! Baffling. No intent to win the game whatsoever, players looked they couldnt be arsed and neither could Ranieri by the looks of it.
south aussie fox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Hard to watch for an hour and half, but will take the point
les-tah Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Need a new set of defenders that can hold onto the ball. need a real attacking creative midfielder that can play central and not mahrez who cannot play with his back to goal.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Only kidding! 2 clean sheets in a row.
justfoxes Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Absolutely poor game fook knows how we're going to get on rest of the season unless Claudio sorts this sorry shower out !! Definately need some new blood this month!!
TheSomersetFox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Good point that, something to build on. Players will gain confidence from it.
Rasmic123 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 What an atrocious game of football. Tactically inept from ranieri, we needed pace and width quite clearly and by not having it, invited pressure onto us and nullified our own attacking threat. Middlesbrough weren't going to score that game, dont know why he was so afraid to try and win the game

But if this is the standard we've become then jesus, relegation can't be far away. Feck off with relegation can't be far away! We went for a point and got one, we are now 7 points away from the bottom 3. Absolutely ridiculous comment.
RowlattsFox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Awful but in current form any point on the road is always welcome. Got exactly what we went for. Without Drinkwater, Slimani and Vardy the chance of creating anything are pretty slim. We've gone defensive away from home now we playing teams we can beat after playing open when we went to the big boys. Take the point and move on quickly.
The Doctor Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Delighted with the defence - kept them to just providing catching practice to schmeichel. Toothless going forward and another off day by mahrez. Still, 4 points and 2 clean sheets from 2 games within 48 hours of each other isn't to be sniffed at
AKCJ Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 When are we going to want to win away from home? Even at the end Schmeichel is wasting time, it's becoming tiresome. Nobody wanted to get on the ball and take it forward, we were happy with a point against a very poor side. It's why we've become a bit of a laughing stock and it's why we're going to be the worst defending champions for a long, long time. It's all good being compact and two clean sheets in 44 hours is very good. But Middlesbrough were definitely there for the taking and we didn't want to do it.
filbertway Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Boring boring boring. Would have been cruel on Boro if we nicked something at the end of that. Lucky for us they were absolutely woeful whenever they got into a good position.
Tuna Posted 2 January 2017 Author Posted 2 January 2017 We'll never win away all season if we continue to play like that, better teams would have found a way to score and we would not have had an answer. Ranners needs to find a differrent way away from home because the away form will keep us marooned down the bottom of the table.
harpendenfox Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 We're in a scrap, and we scrapped our way to a point. Good attitude if rather drab
Izzy Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Another precious away point towards PL survival. #cleansheetarmy

sly1 Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 Champions of England your having a laugh Get this mess sorted
crisp packet Posted 2 January 2017 Posted 2 January 2017 After an early start . Long drive. Happy with a point. Decent from fans today.... PARKED THE BUS!
