You can't blame mahrez for that pass, he did the best he could!

 

He created our 2 best chances, give the guy a break!

Bit torn. Slimani scores that (which he should) you've got a completely different game but other than that we've been a bit flat and I really do think we need an alternative against the better sides.

I feel like if he'd done it earlier, Vardy could have easily outpaced his defender but the more I think about it the less I blame Mahrez.

Not easy. Insta release so far from the goal in a three against one would have been madness. I think he took the right decision but it didn't pay off. Even more bitter when we see that we got punished right after that.

The big question facing Shakespeare at half time is 3 points from the opening 4 games good enough?

Really?? Only if you're a cnut, have you seen who we've played? Have we dropped any points we are expected to get?

Considering who we've played and taking each game on its merits it isn't a difficult question.

 

We were abhorrent in the fixtures we've played this season, last season. We look at least half competent this campaign.

 

It's not his fault we've had a difficult start but no doubt our dribblies will start moaning soon enough.

Dunno why people are kicking Slimani for not scoring, the angle was against him and courtois pulled off a world class save... 

Slimani has been pretty decent, won a fair few tackles, without him that chance wouldn't have even come. 

 

I don't understand the logic of Leicester fans, he's only had 1 clear chance and our fans expect him to score a Hattrick, we play him against his strengths.

Shame that so many people are keen to diss our players.

 

We've looked superb IMO. I think some need to realise that we're playing the defending champions with a midfield that cost them over 110m feeding a striker that cost 70m. 

 

Morgan has shut a lot of people up today. Might not be superb at bringing the ball out but he's a sensational defender. His positioning and awareness is genuinely amazing to watch.

Post of the day IMO. Couldn't agree with you more.

Blimey not been In a match thread in a while.... I thought we were really good apart from not taking the chance... it’s fine lines like that but that’s all we’ve messed up... and we are vulnerable from the wings as always :( 

Posted

Can't blame James when we consistently play 2 against 3 in midfield against top sides. So predictable

Posted

Slimani is inept plain and simple. Always 2 marks off the pace and keen to blame everyone else whilst throwing his arms in the air. Get nacho on.

Posted

Not bad. We need to come forward at some point in the 2nd half in the way we did tiers the end of the first. Nacho for Slim for me.

Seen the goal back a few times now and I'm still not convinced that it's not offside.

I thought that, maybe just a fraction.

He could've played Vardy in earlier, but won't point fingers as he's laid on a plate for Slimani.

Just watched it again.  He needed to pass it when about 30 yds out and let Vards take it from therd.  If Vardy had drifted wider, rather than cutting in when near the box, the angle would have still been there.

Love Slim but think we should be giving Nacho a full half here, we need to get him playing and up to speed - nobody wants him to be another off the bencher like Gray, he's got far too much quality for that 

Posted

Fell asleep for a minute or so after the Mahrez cock up they score we need to concentrate more hit them harder don't think Slimani is offering much today like to see him replaced with iheanacho Mahrez some good moments but mostly poor would Gray offer more????

left them far too much room for their goal 2 players unmarked !!

 

come on shaky kick them up the arse make a change or two Iheanacho brace 2nd half !!

Sorry but it was a poor finish. He basically chipped it straight up at an ideal height for Courtois. Hard and low and that's a goal.

This game isn't over yet plus the teams we have had to play as well, 3 points is okay... we are playing well imo

It's not that bad when you consider who we've faced so far.

You honestly don't think he should score that? Come on. He's not had a bad game but that's a poor miss.

Think we've played alright so far. Was screaming at Mahrez to pass to Vardy, but I can see why he opted for Slimani.

 

Gutwrenching that they immediately scored in response though. We can still get a draw here!
