Man U 2 - Leices 0 Post match thread.

We have lost to the Champions away. We matched them physically today many wont. Away to Man Utd will not make or break our season so for the doom and gloom merchants chill the f#ck out.

No I didn't. I thought we would get hammered which clearly we didn't but the way we are with the ball needs to improve. We can't string two passes together. 

I agree for the away games at the lesser teams mentioned but at clubs like United who are expected to have most of the ball at home to please a global fanbase, it's always going to be hard to get a passing game. Let's hope we can improve for Huddersfield.

I can't understand why the following comment has not been made...

 

Poor CS   I think that he was and is an assistant to manager 

For CS the EPL table begin from 8-20 so Leicester will drop 21x 2 = 42 points

 

He will be sacked much earlier than ranieri 

 

Leicester needs better

 

I m down and I m losing it 

You've made it 3 times.

They will probably win the league. 

 

My worry for us is there seems a big lack of communication when we make subs. Happened against Arsenal and again today with the corner and Rashford not getting picked up. Very basic.

OK So, a game most of us expected not too get too much out of. Disappointed with the way we conceaded the goals, before then we defended very well. The thing is, why did we change from the way we played against arsenal? We showed we are at our best when we take games to the opposition. I love Shakey, but I do think he's still very wet behind the ears when it comes to management and substitutes. Vardy should not have come off for slim. 

 

With regards to Mahrez, amazing player but his decision making is often terrible. Same with Gray, so much potential but today he was playing for himself to get into the team. He needs to learn that if he plays for the team and plays well that's when you give yourself a chance. 

 

Maguire... Well no need to say much, can't wait for Huth and Maguire. 

 

I think James ran out of steam but when we replace him with King it's a slap to the forehead moment for sure. 

 

Slim held the ball well when he came on, shame he didn't have Vardy to feed. 

 

Onwards and upwards, still signs that we have a decent team

I though skipper Morgan and Maguire were superb .......no changes at the back for me.....

Also for a counter attacking side our passing was dreadful 69% passing accuracy 

That was the most disappointing part of today. Ndidi and James in particular were deadful.

Shinji runs around a lot but the majority of our problems stem from him being on the pitch. He really needs to be moved on. I hope once Iborra is fit we switch to a three in midfield and play either Kelech or Islam instead

Agreed Morgan played very well today, however he does panic occasionally on the ball, there was a moment in the second half where he could have either passed it back or passed it across but with 1 player attacking him he just kicked the ball out even though he had control of it. That partnership is our best I think.

Jeeez, some proper moaners on here! Decent game, our performance was pretty good imo. I reckon Utd will go unbeaten at home this season. Tbh, it was a game where we could have got a point, if the gods wanted to smile on us. Fellanis goal was offside. It's soooo difficult to execute our particular style and game plan against Utd. They're too powerful to hold out for 90mins.

I can't see em being beaten at home either, tbh i think they'll win the prem this season, they look formidable, on paper and on the pitch.

I like James but yes we do need better in the midfield.

 

No alternatives though.

CS was literally shouting, "talk to him" when the subs came on.

The players weren't communicating what the roles were.

Apparently that was a problem at Arse as well (other than the subs just being bizarre!).

Knifes out for gray, what did Albrighton create?

Yes Gray looked very effective hitting through balls as pea rollers to DeGea

I am not sure I would ever suggest that a Huth is a footballer with great passing skills - Wes has quality but maybe a 3 might be used in certain situations

We play him because our midfield is shit. That's why.

N'didi was really poor today..his tackling maybe okay, but his passing is awful...they won't win the league...they're no better than last season.

James still looks overweight and has been thrown in the deepend.

 

A for effort 

D for ability 

He ain't up to it!.. .

Sad,  but true!
